There are other opportunities for travel each summer and occa sionally at other times during the year. Tours are directed by those with experience in travel and are offered at a nominal price. Although these tours are not limited to Biola University students, it is expected that those joining a tour will be in basic agreement with the Christian viewpoint and the standards of conduct held by Biola University. In addition, it is expected that the individual's health will be strong enough to stand the demanding rigors of travel. For information write to the office of admissions and records. SUMMER SCHOOL A growing and continuing summer school program provides students with the opportunity for a greater degree of flexibility in planning their total program. Students may enrich their course of study and reduce the overall time spent in school, or decrease their regular course load by careful selection of summer school courses. Visiting students find it refreshing to study in a different atmosphere and perhaps a different locale, and entering students find it helpful in gaining advanced standing. Work taken may be applied to both the degree and the teaching credential programs. Instruction is offered in standard courses by the regular Biola faculty and capable visiting professors. Courses offered cover the areas of art, Bible, theology, Greek, history, literature, mathematics, philosophy, psychology, biolog ical science, sociology and other subjects, including education courses for teaching credential candidates. Graduate courses in theology and psychology enable graduate students to continue their programs during summer sessions. Credit is also available in connection with excellent foreign tours conducted during the summer. Tuition, room and board are lower than regular charges at private colleges; total costs are competitive with state summer school charges. See section on financial information for summer school tuition. Certain courses or workshops may be offered in the summer that are not listed in this bulletin. Courses may be innovative or the coi;i.tent may be in response to specialized needs or current topics. Such courses will be described in the separate Summer Schooi Bulletin. continued 21
Biola Abroad is an in-residence program offering an academic semester in Europe. Students are given the opportunity to broaden their perspectives and integrate learning with experi ence. To bring culture to.life, classwork is richly supplemented by field trips. Classes are conducted in English and courses of instruction and credits are the same as those on the La Mirada campus. Because of economic and political instability, programs abroad are under constant review. A strong effort is made to offer a quality program at a reasonable price. Academic semesters are planned with a German orientation each fall beginning 1983. Course offerings are primarily in the area of general education requirements on the sophomore level, but some upperclassmen with an interest in the humanities toward the B.A., B.M. or B.S. may apply. All participants must be full-time students and choose one from each of the five following blocks of classes for 12-15 units of credit:
