TheBarterTheatreProgram

Since the Lyceum Program is an academic

requirement for graduation at Emory & Henry

College, students should treat Lyceum events with the

respect due any classroom occasion. For on-campus

events, Lyceum attendance credit will be registered

by scanning your ID card at the beginning of and at

the conclusion of an event. For Barter plays and Arts

Array films carrying Lyceum credit, the student must

retain the ticket stub and present it to the CSA office

for credit within a week of the event in question. You

will need to have your ID card with you and present

it upon entering and leaving each event. Each student

is responsible for seeing that his or her ID card is

properly bar coded (at matriculation) and maintained

during the academic year. Students are advised to

consult campus security to arrange for replacing or

recoding damaged ID cards. Students are expected to

be seated no less than five minutes before an event

is scheduled to begin. Any student arriving late or

leaving a Lyceum event early will not receive credit for

attendance.

Any faculty or staff member may dismiss a student

from a Lyceum event for inappropriate behavior.

Inappropriate behavior is defined as any behavior that

distracts oneself or others from full participation in a

Lyceum event, including sleeping, talking, reading,

doing homework, texting, and generally any form of

rude behavior. Students seeking credit for attending

an Artalk are expected also to view The 1912 Gallery

exhibit to which the Artalk relates.

All students enrolled in a degree program are

required to register attendance at five Lyceum events

per regular semester, exclusive of summer school.

No more than two events in any semester may be

films, and no more than two may be Barter plays.

Students may accumulate up to ten events during the

fall semester and carry five credits over to the spring

Lyceum Requirementssemester, but no credits may be carried over from a

spring semester to the following fall. Part-time students

who extend their program beyond four years are

not required to attend more than 35 Lyceum events.

Part-time students enrolled in 11 semester hours or

fewer in a semester are required to attend one event

for each course in which they are enrolled for credit

that semester. Students who are enrolled in student

teaching will be required to attend two events during

that particular semester.

Seniors are exempt from the Lyceum requirement

during their final semester; however, all accumulated

deficiencies must be satisfied by midterm of that semester.

Appeals for Alternate Requirements

Commuter students and part-time students who

encounter extreme problems with commuting or other

unforeseen circumstances may appeal to the Lyceum

Committee for a special hearing should they wish

to request an alternate way of satisfying part of the

Lyceum requirement in any one term. Students who

anticipate that student teaching, internships, or study

abroad will require them to do extensive work away

from the college may make a written appeal to the

Lyceum Committee for an alternate requirement.

Note: All appeals should be made prior to the end

of the second week of the semester.

Deficits

Students who have not met their Lyceum

requirement are not awarded degrees, even if they

have met all other graduation requirements.

Seniors with deficiencies not cleared in the final

semester will not have met the Lyceum requirement for

graduation.

Any appeal of a penalty for Lyceum deficiencies

should be addressed in writing to the Lyceum Committee.

Please address questions regarding Lyceum policy to the Centralized Student Assistance Office, 276-944-6105.
