NORTHERN ARIZO NA UNIVERSITY LIBRARY Second Semester Application Due for Financial Assistance Financial aid applications for second semester·

are due immediately, Joseph Bednorz, director of financial aids, announced today.

To apply for aid. students should pick up the new ACT Financial Aid form and the Arizona Financial Aid application in Room 305 of the Administra­tion Building.

Although students find it tedious and time con­suming to fill out financial aid forms, Bednorz ex­plained that it is required for three reasons.

"First, there are so many applications that we need some basis on which to decide which students really need aid," he said. "Second, we fi nd this is the fairest way to deal with applicants-they are

all treated in the same manner. Third, the federal government requires a need analysis from all in­stitutions."

To help with the money stituation, Financial Aids offers scholarships, grants, loans, and work-study jobs for students. •

As soon as the papers are completed, the ACT ~ form should be mailed and the Arizona applica- Jl· tion returned to the Financial Aids office.

Completed forms for aid for next year must be returned to the Financial Aids office by Feb. 1, 1970, and applications for summer school musf be received by April l.

NCACSS Reviews NAU Accreditation

Preparation for university review accreditation by the North Central As­sociation of Colleges and Secondary Schools are gaining momentum through­out campus, according to Dr. Frank Hamblin, NAU academic vice-president.

Racing to a Jan. 1 deadline, depart­ment and college chairmen are compil­ing complete reports on class activity, department :facilities, goals and student benefits.

The addition of doctoral programs, a PhD in Biology, Ed. Ds in Curri· cula, psychology and educational ad· ministration have added to accreditation "headaches" Dr. Hamblin explained. "Normally a college is accredited every six to 10 years but we wanted to get the doctoral programs going," he noted. NAU was review accredited when it be­came a university in 1966.

An eight man committee has been working on accreditation produre and co-ordination since Feb. "As far as we know every department in the university is working hard on accreditation," Ham­blin added, "If they're not we'll give them a hard time."

The committee is divided into eight units, each delving in a separate phase of academic life. One cmmittee is studying the university as a whole, an· 0ther is analysing financial support. Other members of the committee are examining faculty standards, student characteristics and campus services. One of the by products of the accredi­tation review will be a revitalization of department and college library sections to up-date information in various fields.

Sometime in March or early April a team of accreditors composed of college and university presidents will visit the campus to "check on the ac­curacy of the submitted reports and re­view NAU strengths and weaknesses," Dr. Hamblin remarked.

Administration and faculty members will undergo a period of anxiety from April to July wbile the accrediting association is determining whether or aot NAU ,m receive accreditatioo in wbole or part.

"We expect most of the university will get through accreditiation without too much trouble," Dr. Hamblin for­cast adding that the new doctoral pro- · grams will be "hardes hit" by accredi­tors. "We want to make sure that the graduate programs are perfect in every detail."

If approved the doctoral programs will be installed on a "token" basis. "We want to start with a small number of candidates until we fully develope the programs," he remarked. Other colleges within NAU are considering graduate programs for the future, he added;
