While it is common to describe degree requirements in terms of credits hours earned (e.g. the B.A.degree=124 credits), we believe that knowledge and the educational process must be understood as much more than units of “time served.” Our graduates may accumulate credit hours, but, more importantly, they should demonstrate proficiency in the classical liberal arts, grasp the integrated nature of knowledge and the created order, and experience personal growth in wisdom and maturity as Christian scholars and citizens.
To determine the appropriate number of credit hours assigned to each course, the Dean takes into account the amount of time students spend in lectures, recitation, labs, choir practice, field trips, etc., and the type of class being evaluated. Generally speaking, each credit hour corresponds to at least one hour of direct instruction and a minimum of two hours of additional student work each week.
