Ijbjcct of ihc institution.

The purpose for which a Norma] School is established Lb pre- eminently the education and training of teachers. To folly ac- complish this object, it must give thorough and systematic culture to all the faculties of the mind ; accurate instruction in the vari- ous branches of learning; a complete knowledge of the principles and methods of human culture and instruction, and of organizing, managing and governing a school ; and an opportunity to make available for teaching purposes, under the supervision of well trained, experienced teachers, all the power developed and knowl- edge acquired in the class-room. This is our aim.

But, as the best methods of instruction for teacher- are also the best methods to be adopted in giving to all pupils clear concep- tions and thorough knowledge of whatever branches of study they may wish to pursue, our Institution is open to all of proper age, whether they have teaching in view or not. We feel confident that there are no better opportunities to obtain a general business, scientific or classical education, or t<- pursue studies preparatory to those that are strictly professional, than are afforded at this Institution.

i

ouiraea of

nstrurfion.

The Normal School Law provides for three distinct courses of study: — The Elementary Course; the Scientific Course, and the Classical < 'ourse.

The Course of Instruction prepared for the State Normal School.-, and approved by the State authorities. Is as follows:

ELEMENTARY COURSE.

A thorough knowledge of the branches taught in common schools, as re- aw, including higher arithmetic and higher grammar: also.

Geography— Physical, as much as found in Warren's; and Mathematical, as much as found in Smith's.

Etymology.— As much as in Webb's Etym 'logy.

< ; eombtry.— Plane Geometry.

Algebra.— As found in the elementary text books.

Book-keeping.— Single entry, as found in the ordinary text-books, with the knowledge of the use of cheek-, notes, drafts, etc.

Physiology.— As found in the large common school text-hooks.

Natural Philosophy.— As found in the ordinary text-books, with the use of apparatus.

Rhetoric— As found in ordinary text-books.

History United states and Constitution.— As in ordinary text-hooks. . vNY.'— As in ordinary text-books.

Penmanship.— To be able to explain and teach some approved system, and the wi ; • to be presented to the Board of Examiners.

Drawing.— As much as two of Bartholomew's drawing-books, with six months free-hand draw

Vocal Music.— Principles as found in ordinary text-books, and attendance upon daily exercises for at least one-third of a year.

The Theory of teaching.— This embraces three things, namely:

1. A knowledge of the mental and moral power-, and the methods of train- ing them.

2. A knowledge of the methods of teaching the different branches of study.

3. A knowledge of the m -anizing and managing hools, The Practice of Teaching.— This includes forty-live minutes daily prac- tice in the M »1 for one-half of a school year, and two meetings each week for the discussion of the Practice of Teaching.

The Theory of Teaching must be commenced the second half of the junior year, and continued during the entire coin-".

SCIENTIFIC COURSE.

Plane and Spherk al Trigonometry and Surveying. Higher Algebra.— As found in ordinary text-1 Analyticel Geometry and Calculus. Chemistry.— As found in ordinary text-books. Natural Philosophy. —a- much a- in Olmsted.

8TATE NORMAL SCHOOL, TNDTANA, PA.

Zoology.— As round in Agassiz and Gould. »gt. - *.s Found in ordinary text-boohte.

General Sistobi —a- found iii Weber and Willson.

Astronomy.— As found in Loomis.

Logic— As much as in Atwater.

Mental and Moral Philosophy.— As much as iu Haven or Ilickok.

Elements of Latin.— Including four books i»t' Caesar.

English Literature.— As much as in Shaw, and the study ol English Classics for one-third of a school year.

Theory oe Teaching.— As much as in the Elementary Course, and the whole of "Methods of Instruction."

SuBSTrruTiONS.— Lady pupils may be permitted to substitute for Spherical Trigonometry, Analytical Geometry, Calculus, the .Mathematical parts of Nat- ural Philosophy and Astronomy, and the latter third of Higher Algebra— an equivalent amount of Latin. French or German.

CLASSICAL COURSE.

This course is intended to qualify teachers for The classical department of instruction in graded and high schools and academies, it includes the studies ol the Elementary and Scientific Courses, and the usual collegiate course in Latin and Greek. French and German may be substituted for an equivalant

amount of Latin and Greek.

OPENING OF THE INSTITUTION, &C.

This Institution opened on the 17th of May, 1875, and the Catalogue which is now published, exhibits the attendance during

the second full school year. It is now on a good financial basis, having lately received a large appropriation from the State, which,

in addition to the constant effort of the Board of Trustees and the Faculty of the Institution to increase the facilities lor study, recitation, and exercises, cannot fail to make the advantages of the Institution such, in every respect, as to give eminent satisfac- tion to all who may become its patrons.

It is intended to make it, in all respects, fully to any School of the kind in the United States.

LOCATION, BUILDINGS, &C.

Indiana is the county seat of Indiana county. It contains a population of about 3,000. It is the terminus of the Indiana Branch of the Pennsylvania Central Railroad. The thorough sympathy of all its citizens with this Institution has been evinced, not only by the contribution of $60,000 for its establish- ment, but by the late contribution of about $3,000 towards pro- viding for it the eompletest apparatus for Chemistry and Physics of any Normal School in the United States.

The town furnishes the best church privileges that could pos- sibly be desired, in some of the leading Christian denominations ; and for several years past has sustained a first-class Lecture Course, in which have appeared the most distinguished lecturers of the country.

It is believed that few communities could be found anywhere equally favorable to the highest success of a State Normal School.

The building is new, of ample size, and furnished in the most approved manner. It is

WARMED BY STEAM LIGHTED BY GAS THROUGHOUT,

20 STATE NORMAL SCHOOL, INDIANA, PA.

And thus it is secured against all the dirt and danger incident to a hundred fires, and especially attendant upon the use of coal oil.

The dimensions of the edifice may be best understood by con- ceiving of it as three buildings — one fifty feet wide by a hundred and fifty feet in length ; and two others, each of which would be forty-five feet in width by a hundred and eighty feet in length, the whole blending into one building of beautiful proportions, and all four stories high above the basement. The basement story is nine feet in height, and the other four stories range from eleven and a half to fourteen feet between the floor and ceiling.

The building is remarkable for its being well lighted, well ven- tilated, and for its general air of eheerfulness. It has been pro- nounced by Dr. Wickersham, the Superintendent of Public In- struction, as unquestionably the best building of the kind in the United States.

The chapel ; the dining hall, with the accompanying apart- ments ; the model school rooms ; the library room ; the reading room ; the Principal's rooms ; the reception room ; the parlor ; the lecture and recitation rooms ; the corridors ; apartments for chemical laboratory, the private rooms for four hundred students — all are unusually well adapted to their respective uses.

The value of buildings, grounds, furniture, apparatus. &c, is estimated to be about 8200,000.

The equipment in the department of Chemistry and Physics, is fully equal to that of any other Normal School in the United States.

TERMS OF ADMISSION, &C.

Candidates for admission to any department of the Institution, must be of good moral character; and those coming from other. Institutions will be expected to bring certificates of honorable dismission.

None will be received to the Normal Department under four- teen years of age, except by special permission from the Faculty. And all are required to sign a pledge faithfully to observe all the rules and regulations of the Institution, during tlieir connection therewith.

Students may be admitted at any time during the term, if pre- pared to enter the classes already formed ; but it is generally to the advantage of the student to be present promptly at the open- ins of the term. And those in the regular course of study are

expected to be present, in all cases at the tirel recitation of their respective classes, unless Leave of absence has been previously obtained.

GOVERNMENT,

- earnestly desired by the Faculty and all other officers of the Enstitution, that the students may be influenced I i •_ I con- duct and diligence in study by higher motives than fear of pun- ishment; and they mainly rely lor the success of the School on moral arid religious principle, a a duty, and the generous feelings which belong t" young ladies and gentlemen engaged in honorable pursuits. When these motives fail, however, recourse must he had to friendly caution ami warning — to private and public admonition ; and, when the nature and circumstances quire it. t<> public suspension, dismission, or expulsion.

Whenever the Faculty are satisfied that from indolence, or whatever other cause, any student i- not fulfilling, or likely to fulfill, the purpose of his connection with the Institution, or is,for any cause, an unfit member thereof, the parents or guardian of such student may be notified, that they have an opportunity of withdrawing him. And if not withdrawn within a reasonable time, the student will lie dismissed.

But we assume in the outset, that all who come to this Institu- tion come with good and honest intent ; and all are treated as worthy of confidence, affection, and respect, until they prove themselves otherwise. And our confident expectation i-. that there will very seldom arise any necessity for resort to extreme measures.

ASSOCIATION OE THE SEXES.

< >ur purpose i- to make the Pennsylvania Stare Normal School, in all respects, a well-regulated home for all who attend it : in which they may become familiar with the usages of the best society. But while there are very great advantages that arise from the proper co-education of the ses - - ial precautions are ssary to guard against all possible evil or scandal. Hence the following regulations; which will commend themselves to all as necessary and wise.

Students -hall not correspond, walk, or ride with those of the opposite sex : or meet in the reception room, parlor, or elsewhere,

except by special permission from the Principal and the Pre- ceptress. Ladies and gentlemen are also expressly forbidden entering the halls appropriated to each other's respective depart- ments without permission. They are on no condition allowed to visit each other's private rooms, except in case of severe sickness, and then only in company with the Principal or Preceptress.

These regulations we deem vital to the very existence of the Institution, and the disregard of them will be visited with the promptest and severest punishment that may be necessary to secure their faithful observance.

RELIGIOUS SERVICES,

The Bible is our text-book of morals. It is read daily at our opening exercises. The School is also organized into Bible classes which meet every Sabbath morning to discuss regularly assigned lessons. Our instruction, though thorough and systematic, is in no sense sectarian. Attendance upon these exercises is compul- sory, except when pupils are excused upon the request of parents or guardians. All students are also expected to attend public- service on Sabbath day ; either at some place in town, or in the Normal School Chapel when services are held there. Prayer meetings are also held in the Building on Wednesday and Sat- urday evenings, upon which attendance is voluntary.

LITERARY SOCIETIES.

There are two Literary Societies in vigorous operation : — The Erodelphiax, and the Huyghenian. Each of these embraces both ladies and gentlemen. The former is the same society which was originally organized as the ." Fairfield Literary Society/' and which, at the earnest solicitations of Dr. Fairfield, the former Principal, consented to this change of name.

REFERENCE LIBRARY AND READING ROOM,

During the last year a fine Reference Library has been estab- lished in the Institution, mainly by donations from the members of the Board of Trustees. To this students have constant recourse free of charge.

A Reading Room containing leading daily and weekly news- papers, magazines, journals of education, church and Sunday

s/'.i /'/•' XOR.UAL SCHOOL. IXDIAXA, PA. _>:j

School weeklies, etc., is also connected with the School, with privileges free to all.

THE MODEL SCHOOL

The Model School is intended to he what its name indicates. It is designed to exhibit the highest order of excellence in teach- ing, and to afford students of the Normal School the opportunity

to put into practice the various methods of instruction learned in the class-room.

The pupils are generally from eight to sixteen years of age.

A limited number can be received from abroad.

The instruction is mainly done by the Graduating Class of the Normal School. Beside.- this, there is the general supervision of the Superintendent of the Model School and the Principal of the Normal School.

The course of instruction comprises the usual branches taught in common schools, together with the elements of Rhetoric, Natural Philosophy, Physiology, Chemistry, Botany, and Natural History.

Special attention is given to Object-Lessons, Vocal Music, Drawing, and Book-keeping ; the object being to give to boys the elements of a practical business education, and to all the pupils the necessary preparation for the more advanced course of the Normal School.

FURNITURE OF ROOMS, &C.

Each room is furnished with a closet, table, chairs, dressing- bureau, bedstead, lied, bedding, and all necessary crockery. l&JStudents furnish their 01m brooms, towels and napkins, and

all articles to lie washed, must be distinctly marked with the full name of the owner. Ten pieces per week only will be washed without extra charge.
