THE COLLEGE

The State Teachers College at Indiana is a state-owned and state- controlled institution devoted exclusively to the preparation of teachers for the public schools of Pennsylvania. All curricula are four years in length, and all lead to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Education and the Provisional College Certificate in the appropriate field. The follow- ing curricula are offered.

An Elementary Curriculum designed primarily to prepare for teach- ing in the kindergarten and in grades one to six. (See pp. 39-42 for details.)

A Secondary School Curriculum designed primarily to prepare for teaching in junior and senior high schools. (See pp. 42-44 for details.)

An Art Curriculum designed primarily to prepare teachers and super- visors of art in public schools. (See pp. 69-75 for details.)

A Business Education Curriculum designed primarily to prepare for teaching commercial subjects in public schools. (See pp. 76-87 for details.)

A Home Economics Curriculum designed primarily to prepare for teaching home economics in public schools. (See pp. 88-95 for details.)

A Music Education Curriculum designed primarily to prepare teachers and supervisors of public school music. (See pp. 96-109 for details.)

HISTORY

A bill was introduced and passed by the (Jeneral Assembly in the legislative session of 1871, in conformity to the Normal School Act of 1857, permitting the establishment of a State Normal School in the ninth Normal School District. The original building was completed and first opened for students on May 17, 1875. This building, named John Sutton Hall in honor of the first President of the Board of Trustees, is still in use and is in excellent condition. The steady growth of the school has caused a continuous expansion in its building program. No college in the state can boast of an educational plant, including campus, buildings, and equipment, in better physical condition than that at Indiana.

In April, 1920, entire control and ownership of the school passed to the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. In May, 1927, by authority of the General Assembly, the school became a college with the right to grant

14 Teacheks College Bulletin

degrees, and the name was changed to the State Teachers College at Indiana, Pennsylvania.

LOCATION

Indiana Borough, the county seat of Indiana County, is located in the foothills of the Alleghenies at an elevation of about 1400 feet, an ideal location for health and comfort. The town is noted for its cleanli- ness and beauty. It is easily accessible by automobile, as it is located on the Benjamin Franklin Highway and is connected with all leading highways of the state by excellent roads. It is also easily reached by rail, being the northern terminus of the Indiana branch of the Pennsylvania Railroad, connecting with the main line at Torrance. Indiana is also on the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, which makes connection with all northern points. Bus service is available to practically all parts of the state.

CAMPUS AND BUILDINGS

Campus. The college owns 34 acres of land, 23 of which are in the original campus. In the center of this is a historic oak grove, about which are grouped the main buildings forming three sides of the quadrangle. The rest of the campus is beautified by a careful distribution of shrubs, roses, and other plants artistically arranged. On streets bordering the campus the college owns eighteen houses or "cottages" most of which are occupied as dormitories by the men.

Buildings. In addition to John Sutton Hall, which now includes all the administrative offices, the post office, recreation hall, the president's apartment, the library, and women's dormitory rooms, the following are the chief buildings:

Thomas Sutton Hall, an addition to John Sutton Hall, erected in 1903, contains the kitchen, dining rooms, and dietitian's office on the first floor and the music education department on the second and third.

Clark Hall, named in honor of Justice Silas M. Clark, a member of the Board of Trustees, was erected in 1906 on the site of a former build- ing burned that year. It was used as a men's dormitory until 1924 and since that time has served as a dormitory for women.

Wilson Hall, at present housing the campus laboratory school for grades one to six, was erected in 1893 and was named for A. W. Wilson, third President of the Board of Trustees. On completion of the new Laboratory School this building will furnish additional recitation rooms for the college.

Indiana Catalogue Number 1-^

Leonard Hall, named for Jane E. Leonard, for many years precep- tress of Indiana Normal School, was erected in 1903 as a recitation build- ing. It contains the laboratories, recitation rooms, and, at present, the campus laboratory school for the junior high school. The Junior High School Department will have quarters in the new Laboratory School when it is ready for occupancy.

The Gymnasium was completed in 1928. It contains two gymna- siums, a fine swimming pool, and all the equipment that goes to make up an efficient physical education plant.

The Arts Building, completed in 1931, houses the art, business, and home economics departments, one entire floor being given to each de- partment. This building, both in appearance and in equipment for effi- cient work, is recognized as one of the finest educational buildings in the state.

Auditorium. A new auditorium to seat 1600 people is being provided under the general state authority program.

Laboratory School. The new laboratory school will provide for a complete elementary and junior high school program. The junior high school plans provide for courses in the following fields: academic, com- mercial, home economics, and industrial arts. Facilities will also be pro- vided for physical education, a psychological clinic, a health clinic, a li- brary, music and art studios. A fine demonstration room with seats for 160 observers is a unique feature of the building.

Dining Room Annex. At the west end of the dining room is an annex which provides ample lobby space for men and women students entering and leaving the dining room, and a pleasant social room for various activities.

The Library, which comprises approximately 15,000 volumes, is lo- cated in the north wing of John Sutton Hall. One hundred fifty periodi- cals are received regularly. By means of shelves open to the students, free reading is encouraged in the main reading room on the first floor. Books assigned as required reading by instructors are kept on reserve in a reading room directly below the main library. The beginning of a Text Book Library is now kept in a room adjacent to the first floor reading room, A student may have access to this room at any time by securing the key at the circulation desk. In the provision of reading material and in its organization, newer curriculum trends are considered and while the book collection is small, an effort is made to serve the specific needs of the students and faculty.

The Library is open from 7:45 A.M. to 5:00 P.M. and from 7:00 P.M. to 9:00 P.M. from Monday through Friday and from 7:45 A.M. to 2:30 P.M. on Saturday.

16 Teachers College Bulletin

The Infirmary, located in a wing of John Sutton Hall, has 13 beds and is thoroughly equipped in every way, not only for all the routine work of such a place, but for every type of emergency as well. Two reg- istered nurses are always on duty and physicians and surgeons of the highest type are within easy call. The health of students is a matter of first concern at Indiana.

The College Bookstore. This bookstore is operated by the Students Co-operative Association, which receives the benefit of all net receipts. In addition to books, this store carries a complete line of students' neces- sities which can be purchased at reasonable prices. The regulation gym- nasium uniforms can also be purchased here.

The Power Plant, which furnishes heat and light for all buildings owned by the school, has been enlarged from time to time. The last unit, which was added in 1932, makes this plant thoroughly up to date in every way and insures a capacity to meet all needs for years to come.

Shop Buildings. A shop building has been erected recently near the power plant. It is a brick structure of factory-type construction, two stories in height in front, and one story in the rear. In it are located the carpenter shop, the electric shop, the paint shop, and the plumbing shop, and it provides storage room for all materials for these shops.

Changes in the basement of John Sutton Hall, in which these shops were formerly located, now provide for a new janitors' room, a new gardeners' room, a central filing room, and a central storeroom. All basement rooms located in North Wing have been remodeled and are used as community rooms, lounges, and a library-reading room for activi- ties of day students.

The Lodge plays an important part in the instructional and recrea- tional life of the school. Owned by students and faculty, this 100 acres of wooded hillside with its rustic lodge and three shelter houses not only offers opportunity for study by nature and conservation classes, but is in demand for picnics, meetings, and winter sports.

18 Teachers College Bulletin

If, however, the student notifies the college at leafst three weeks; before the npeninrf of school that he is unable to enter, or if the student is rejected by the college, repayment of this deposit may be made through the Department of Revenue, on appli- cation by the student through the college authorities.

No credit can be given for correspondence or extension work toward limited certification unless such work was completed previous to Septem- ber, 1926. Credit for extension work in certain subjects up to a total of not to exceed thirty semester hours may be accepted toward the require- ment for a degree. No correspondence work is accepted.

SCHOLASTIC REQUIREMENTS

Grades. The following grades are used in reporting the standing of students at the end of each semester or summer term: A, excellent; B, good; C, fair; D, passed; F, failed; I, incomplete.

A grade of F can be cleared only by repeating the course in the regular way. The grade I is used to record work which, so far as cov- ered, is of passing grade, but which is incomplete because of personal illness or other unavoidable reason. It must be made up within twA months after the student returns to school.

Quality Points are assigned as follows: Grade A, 3 quality points per semester hour; B, 2 quality points per semester hour; C, 1 quality point per semester hour; D or F, no quality points.

To qualify for graduation or for recommendation for the State Standard Limited Certificate, a student must have secured as many quality points as the number of semester hours he has earned in this school toward his degree or certification. Quality points are not counted on grades from other schools and a student transferring from another school is held responsible for quality points only on work taken here.

Honor Roll. Students, who, during the previous semester have no grades lower than B and half of whose grades are A, are placed on the

24 Teachers College Bulletin

Dean's Honor Roll and receive special privileges. During the second semester 1938-39 there were 28 names on this list.

Eligibility for Student Teaching. No student will be permitted to do student teaching until each of the following requirements is satisfied:

1. All English courses up to the teaching semester must be com- pleted.

2. Competency in English usage shall be demonstrated. Weakness in English skills, as shown by low grades and test scores, should be removed by repetition of courses, by regular attendance at the English Laboratory, or by both of these remedies. Each student is responsible for maintaining and improving his English skills.

3. The number of quality points must equal or exceed the number of hours earned at Indiana. Rare exceptions may be made for stu- dents who have shown marked improvement. Students who have transferred from other colleges must have completed at least the equivalent of one semester at Indiana.

4. Candidates for the degree must have two semesters of work with a C average and no failures in these semesters. One such se- mester shall be required for those who are seeking the State Standard Limited Certificate.

Student teaching in the summer session is restricted to those who have some previous student teaching or actual experience. Application must be made well in advance.

REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION AND CERTIFICATION

Every student entering the State Teachers College, Indiana, Penn- sylvania, selects one of the six degree curricula offered at this college. All curricula are definitely four years in length, and all lead to the de- gree of Bachelor of Science in Education or in some specific field of education and entitle the graduate to the Provisional College Certificate in the appropriate field.

Graduates of the special curricula, art, business education, home economics, and music, receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in their particular field of education and the Provisional College Certificate with authority to teach and supervise the work in their special field in all grades of both the elementary and the secondary school level. These graduates are usually certificated to teach at least one other field in the junior and senior high school.

Graduates of the elementary curriculum receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Education and the Provisional College Certificate. This certificate entitles the holder to teach for three years in the first six grades of any public school and in grades seven and eight if these are not organized as part of a junior high school. After three years of successful teaching and the addition of six hours of approved college courses, the certificate is changed to a Permanent College Certificate.

Indiana Catalogue Numbkr 2r»

Graduates of the secondary curriculum receive the same degree, Bachelor of Science in Education and the Provisional College Certificate, vi'hich entitles the holder to teach in any junior or senior high school the subjects vi'ritten on the face of the certificate. Permanent certifica- tion is secured on the completion of three years of successful teaching and the completion of six semester hours of approved work.

At the meeting of the Board of Presidents of the State Teachers Colleges on January 15, 1937, the following report of the Curricular Re- vision Committee was approved.

1. That each student shall present as a requirement for graduation from the Secondary Curriculum at least two subject fields for certifica- tion, one of which shall consist of not less than twenty-four semester hours.

2. That all courses carried in any subject-matter field shall be counted toward certification.

3. That the Board of Teachers College Presidents request the State Council of Education to consider raising, as soon as possible, the present eighteen-semester-hour certification requirement in every sub- ject-matter field to twenty-four semester hours.

In accordance with the above a student must meet certification re- quirements in two fields, in one of which he must have at least 24 semester hours and in the other at least 18 semester hours. Required courses are included in the above, except that the course in "Speech" is not included in meeting the requirements for certification in English,

Besides the degree curricula in the special fields of art, business education, home economics, and music, Indiana provides all courses necessary for certifiication in the secondary fields of English, geography, mathematics, science, and social studies.

All persons who have completed the work of the two-year Kinder- garten-Primary or Intermediate Curriculum as previously organized are admitted to junior standing for a degree provided they are graduates of an approved four-year high school. The exact number of hours credit granted will depend upon the curriculum which the student has completed and the one in which he wishes to secure his degree. Those who become candidates for the degree in the elementary field will secure two full years' credit, but those who transfer to the secondary field will lose some credit, usually from four to ten hours.

Graduates of any two-year curriculum can secure not more than two full years' credit, 64 semester hours, towards the degree for such graduation.

Former graduates of a two or three-year curriculum at the State Teachers College, Indiana, Pennsylvania, who become candidates for a degree from this school, must do at least one-half of the work required beyond previous graduation or certification at Indiana. An amount up to one-half the required work may be transferred from other accredited

26 Teachers College Bulletin

schools provided the courses pursued are the same or equivalent to the required courses here. Not to exceed thirty semester hours of approv- ed work may be taken in extension classes. Correspondence courses are not accepted.

I. State Standard Limited Certificate.

The State Council of Education at a meeting held June 16, 1932, authorized the issue of a State Standard Limited Certificate for persons desiring to teach the subjects prescribed for the elementary curriculum in the public schools of this commonwealth.

This certificate is valid for three years and renewable for an addi- tional period of three years upon a rating of "low" or better and upon satisfactory completion of twelve semester hours of further approved preparation, subsequent renewals to require a rating of "middle" or better on a state teachers' rating score card together with twelve semester hours of further approved preparation.

At that time the requirement was two years of approved profes- sional work. At their meeting in May, 1936, the State Council of Edu- cation extended the requirement to three years for all candidates who would enter after January 1, 1937. Those who entered college before that date may still secure the certificate on the completion of two years approved work.

During the last year the State Council of Education has taken an- other step in advancing requirements. All students who enter the ele- mentary curriculum after February 1, 1939, must remain four years and meet the full requirements for graduation before they can secure certi- fication. The regulations regarding certification in the elementary field may be summarized as follows:

1. Students who entered before January 1, 1937, may still >5ecure the State Standard Limited Certificate on satisfactory comple- tion of two years' work including the special requirements for certification.

2. Students who entered between January 1, 1937, and February 1, 1939, may secure the State Standard Limited Certificate on the satisfactory completion of three years' work including the special requirements for certification.

3. Students who entered after February 1, 1939, cannot secure any type of certification until they have completed the full require- ments for the degree. They will then receive the Provisional Col- lege Certificate now granted to all graduates.

II. College Certificates

The Provisional College Certificate is issued to any graduate and entitles him to teach the subjects indicated on the face of the cer- tificate for a period of three years. Three years of successful teaching and the completion of six semester hours of additional approved train- ing enable the holder to receive the Permanent College Certificate. This

Indiana Catalogue Number 27

is a life certificate to teach the subjects in his field in any public school in the state. The six required hours must include two or three hours in education and the remainder in a field in which the candidate is al- ready certificated.

In order to add a subject to a certificate in the secondary field credentials showing the satisfactory completion of eighteen semester hours of approved preparation in that subject must be presented.

The holder of a college certificate in the secondary field or in one of the special fields who wishes to secure certification in the elementary field must secure thirty semester hours of approved training in work definitely organized for the preparation of elementary school teachers, including at least six semester hours of student teaching in the ele- mentary field. This preparation must be in addition to the requirements for the degree. This means that courses used to meet the degree re- quirements in the secondary or special field cannot be used again to apply on certification in the elementary field.

The holder of a college certificate in the elementary field may be certificated for teaching in the secondary field by adding thirty hours in secondary education, including six hours' student teaching in the sec- ondary grades, and securing eighteen hours of approved credit in a major field or in each of several major fields of secondary education.

CHANGES IN CURRICULA

During the last three years all curricula have been reorganized. All new curricula went into effect in September, 1937, excepting Home Eco- nomics, which will go into effect in September, 1939. Students who en- tered before those dates and teachers in service who are working toward their degrees need not be disturbed by the changes, as their previous work will be adjusted to the new requirements without loss of credits unless they change from one curriculum to another.

28 Teachers College Bulletin

THE SUMMER SESSIONS

The Summer School has become an integral part of the year's work. Teachers in service and students in regular attendance can secure in the summer session six or nine hours credit toward any certificate or toward graduation in any curriculum. High school graduates who have not pre- viously attended college may attend summer school, but they are not en- couraged to do so. The courses are planned primarily for those who have had previous work and an effort is made to meet all reasonable requests of teachers who are working toward higher certification or toward grad- uation. The groups whose interests are kept particularly in mind in planning the work of the summer session are

1. Holders of any type of limited certificate who are seeking stand- ard certification or graduation

2. Graduates of two- or three-year curricula who are working to- ward degrees in their fields

3. Holders of degrees who wish to secure the six hours required to make the Provisional College Certificate permanent, or who wish to secure additional certification

4. Students in regular attendance who wish to secure additional credit or who wish to make up failures or incompletes received the previous year.

All courses given in the summer session require the same amount of time and are granted the same credit as if taken during a regular se- mester. The Summer School Bulletin will be mailed to anyone desiring more complete information regarding the courses to be offered.

Dates. The regular summer session will open on June 19 and close on July 28. A post session of three weeks will open on July 31 and close on August 18. It will thus be possible for a student to secure six se- mester hours credit in the regular term and an additional three hours in the post session.

STUDENT ORGANIZATIONS

In order that students may have opportunities to develop their own avocational interests and desirable qualities of leadership, initiative, and co-operation, the college sponsors a great variety of student organiza- tions.

STUDENT PARTICIPATION IN SCHOOL GOVERNMENT

Men's Student League. This group made up of all the men students cooperates v^^ith the administration in managing the affairs of men students.

Resident Women's League. This organization composed of all women boarding students aids in directing the affairs of all women students who live in the dormitories or cottages.

Non-Resident Student League. This club promotes social contacts and activities of non-resident students.

Student Co-operative Association. The student activity fee paid by each student is used to finance the Student Co-operative Association. The activities of this organization include musical presentations, lec- tures and entertainments and athletics such as football, basketball and intramural sports. One of the large items of expenditure is the opera- tion of the school bus. Frequent educational excursions are made to places of historical interest and dramatic presentations are seen in Pitts- burgh. Each student receives a copy of the college annual, "The Oak," and the college paper, the "Indiana Penn." The bookroom under the management of this association sells supplies to students and furnishes them books at a discount considerably below list price. Each Saturday evening, when there is no special entertainment, an orchestra is provided for dancing in Recreation Hall. During the past year the Student Co- operative Association furnished the funds for approximately thirty stu- dents to attend student conferences at various points in Pennsylvania. Another new feature, also sponsored by this Association, was the intro- duction of winter sports, tobogganing and skiing.

Student CounciL A small number of students elected to be members of the Student Council acts as an intermediary between students and the administration.

RELIGIOUS ORGANIZATIONS

Religious Influence. This college is not denominational in any sense. Its authorities, however, aim to make it a place of positive Christian influence. To this end students are urged to attend the church of their own choice on Sunday mornings.

30 Teachers College Bulletin

The Y. M. C. A. and the Y. W. C. A. aid in the religious culture of all students in the college. Every effort is made to promote Sunday ob- servance. Students are thus encouraged to become Christian workers, and college life is made to approximate the social ideals of Christian life. There is a vesper service each Sunday evening, which all boarding students attend. A fine recreational room has been set apart for the boys of the Y. M. C. A. and one for the girls of the Y. W. C. A.

In addition to these organizations there are the Newman Club, open to Catholic students and faculty, and the Lutheran Students Association.

DEPARTMENTAL GROUPS

The Art Department sponsors the Art Club and the Tuesday Night Art Activities to stimulate and direct the interest in art both within and outside the Art Department.

The Department of Business Education provides for members of its department the Freshmen Junior Chamber of Commerce and the Junior Chamber of Commerce. These organizations serve social and develop- mental purposes within the department.

The Departments of Elementary and Secondary Education both have clubs to stimulate interest in their fields and unite students with com- mon interests.

The English Department sponsors the American College Quill Club to encourage creative literary activity, the Robinson Reading Choir for those interested in choral reading, and the Leonard Literary Society which, open to faculty, students and townspeople, secures many profes- sional performances for Indiana in addition to its weekly meetings. A small annual fee charged each member makes it possible to present each year some of the best professional literary talent. Recently such inter- nationally famous people as Boake Carter, Christopher Morley, and Hugh Walpole have been heard. This year the society presented the Jitney Players and the Hedgerow Players. The English Department also spon- sors the Indiana Penn, a weekly newspaper, and The Oak, the yearbook.

In the Geography Department, there are the Geography Majors Club, an organization which is open to all geography majors and minors; the Alpha Omega Geographers, a selected group of outstanding geogra- phy majors, which furthers professional work and social contacts in the field, and the Travel Club, composed of geography majors and other in- terested students, which holds no regular meetings, but instead takes one or two trips a year. This year (1938-39) the Travel Club is going to the New York World's Fair.

The Home Economics Club of the Home Economics Department aims to develop leadership and resourcefulness and to provide opportunity for participation in professional and social activities.

The Mathematics Club is organized to create general interest in mathematics and to give instruction in running a club.

Indiana Catalogue Number 31

The Music Department sponsors a larj^e variety of activities, some required of music students, others elective. A few are open to all stu- dents of the school interested in music. These groups are the Music Club, College Choir, Concert Band, Lyric Choir, Marching Band, Men's Glee Club, Orchestra, String Quartet, and Vesper Choir.

In the past year the Physical Education Department has enlarged its club program of sports. At present, those students especially inter- ested in a particular sport activity may band themselves together for the promotion of this sport. Under the direction of the Physical Education Department, in addition to the Red Cross Life-Saving Club, Bicycle Club and the Rifle Club, are found the Women's Athletic Association, formed to promote interest and skill in sports, to develop a well-rounded athletic program and to foster recreation and good fellowship and the Women's Varsity I Club to organize intramural activities for girls and to supply sport managers for W. A. A. activities. Other activities that lend them- selves easily to club work are: skiing, tobogganing, archery and roller skating. These are in the initial stages of organization.

In the Science Department the Biology Club attempts to stimulate professional interest among the students through association with each other in special problems, and to afford opportunity to follow special interests, the David C. Alter Scientific Society to stimulate research in the field of physical sciences, the Out-of-Doors Club, to learn how to en- joy the natural environment, and the Photography Club, to further in- terest in photography through supervised activities.

The groups in the Social Science Department consist of the Inter- collegiate Conference on Government which studies state and national problems and discusses these at a state meeting at Harrisburg; The In- ternational Relations Club, open only to Social Studies majors; the Open Forum, open to all students, discussing national and international affairs; and the Social Science Club, a departmental group interested in gaining a wider knowledge and appreciation of the field.

Class Organizations. Each class. Freshman, Sophomore, Junior, Senior, has an organization and holds meetings when necessary.

FRATERNITIES Honorary Fraternities. In 1928 a Chapter of Alpha Phi Gamma, a national honorary journalistic fraternity, was established on the campus. Its purpose is "To unite in a congenial group students who are interested in the higher forms of journalism." Membership is open only to those who have serv^ed on the staffs of college publications and who maintain a high scholastic standing. The Beta Gamma Chapter of Kappa Delta Pi, an educational honor fraternity open to both men and women, was inaug- urated in 1928. Only juniors and seniors of high scholastic attainments are eligible to membership. Pi Omega Pi, an honorary national fraternity for men and women in business and commercial training, is represented on the campus by Kappa chapter formed in 1929. Beta chapter of Gamma Rho Tau, an honor fraternity for men in Business Education, was or- ganized in 1929.

32 Teachers College Bulletin

Educational Fraternities. Five national fraternities of professional character now have chapters at Indiana. The Phi Alpha Zeta Fraternity was organized as a national educational and social fraternity June 4, 1927. Alpha Chapter has been active on the campus as a local organiza- tion since 1908. A chapter of Phi Sigma Pi, a national educational fra- ternity, was established at Indiana April 30, 1929. It took the place of Omega Chi Fraternity, a local organization founded in 1909. The Alpha Chapter is at Kirksville, Missouri. The Pi Chapter of Sigma Tau Gamma, a national educational and social fraternity, was established on Novem- ber 8, 1930. The Alpha Chapter is at Warrensburg, Missouri.

Interfraternity Council. This small group meets occasionally to regulate interfraternity affairs.

SORORITIES

Educational Sororities. Seven national professional educational sororities have chapters on the campus: Alpha Sigma Alpha, Sigma Sigma Sigma, Delta Sigma Epsilon, Alpha Sigma Tau, Pi Kappa Sigma, Pi Delta Theta, and Theta Sigma Upsilon. Only students who have com- pleted sixteen semester hours of work with a "C" grade average and no failures are eligible for membership. The sorority life offers opportuni- ties for growth of congenial friendships and the fostering of the highest ideals for womanhood. Broadening contacts are furnished through asso- ciation with alumnae members and intercollegiate affiliations.

GENERAL INFORMATION

SUGGESTIONS FOR ENTERING STUDENTS

Prelim in<iry. The prospective student should send for an application blank. This blank should be properly filled out and returned with the room reservation deposit of ten dollars. Rooms are assipcned in the order in which applications are received and as nearly in accordance with their preference as possible.

Entrance Tests. The entrance examinations for applicants who were in the lower half of their graduating classes will be held on Friday, July 14, from 10:30 A.M. to 12:00 M., and 1:00 P.M. to 2:00 P.M. Every ap- plicant who ranked in the lower half of his class should make applica- tion in time to take the examination on that date. Another examination for those who did not apply before the July date will be given on Monday, September 11, from 1:15 P.M. to 3:45 P.M., but the chances for admis- sion will be greatly decreased if they wait until that time. This test will include all students whose high school transcripts have not been received, as well as those in the lower half of their graduating class.

Room Assignments. All entering boarding students are required to pay ten dollars in advance for the reser\'ation of a room. This is due when the application and personal record is filed. This blank will be sent on request to any prospective student. The deposit is credited on the following semester's contingent fee. Students in school at the end of any year who reserve rooms for the following year must pay the room reser- vation deposit by June 15, or their assignment to a room is cancelled and they take their place on the list of entering students. Students are not permitted to room alone except as indicated on page 18.

Advance reservation deposits may be returned to students, provided three weeks before the opening of the semester they notify the college of their intention not to attend, and provided the request for a refund is ap- proved by the Board of Trustees and the Department of Revenue.

The time betw^een terms is very short for getting the dormitories again in readiness for students. For this reason the residence halls are not open until registration day.

Rooms are not held for students beyond the first day of the semester or term unless arrangements have previously been made.

Freshman Dormitory. In order to better orientate Freshmen women a section of John Sutton Hall has been set aside as a Freshman Dormi- tory. It is hoped that this plan will bring better adjustments to the problems of college life.

Student Supplies. All students who live in school dormitories and men students who are assigned to rooms in private homes or in the cot-

34 Teachers College Bulletin

tages must provide themselves with blankets as the college and house mothers furnish only the linen and bedspread. Such students must pro- vide window curtains, soap, towels, and needed toilet articles.

All students who take meals in the college dining room should bring with them an adequate supply of table napkins.

Students must also furnish their own gymnasium costumes. The Physical Education Department requires regulation gymnasium and pool equipment which can be purchased in the college bookstore at a saving to students. The required costume for men costs about $3.00. The cost for women is a little higher.

Some students may wish to use the swimming caps they already pos- sess. The following colors will be required: for beginners, red; for those who can swim a little, green; for the swimmers, blue; and for life savers, white.

Baggage. All baggage is delivered to the basement of John Sutton Hall, and porters will transfer it directly to the students' rooms. Lug- gage should be plainly marked with the student's name and, if the as- signment has been made, should also bear the room number. Students living in school cottages should mark their baggage with the street ad- dress; the college truck delivers it to the rooming place.

Registration Day. All freshmen and other new students except post- graduates will report for registration, classification and other activities, Tuesday, September 12. Boarding students should pay their fees and receive their programs on Tuesday morning; commuters and day stu- dents, on Tuesday afternoon. All other students register on Thursday, September 14. On arriving at the college on this date, new students will be given a mimeographed sheet of directions telling them in detail the procedure to be followed in being registered and programmed. In gen- eral the following directions should be followed:

I. Boarding Students:

A. Go to the library, fill enrollment card, and pay your fees.

B. Women, go to Recreation Hall where the Dean of Women will give you your room assignment and keys. Men, go to the gymnasium where the Dean of Men will have charge.

C. Take all baggage checks to the college bookstore and pay for delivery of the baggage.

D. Have your programs made by teachers assigned to particular groups. These teachers, the rooms in which programs will be made, and the group assigned to each will be clearly indicated in the sheet of di- rections.

E. Secure books and other school materials at the college co-op- erative bookstore. No books should be purchased until after the classes have met and a correct list of necessary books has been made out.

Indiana Catalogue Number S6

F. Students who are transferring from other schools and who have not had their credits evaluated should see the Dean of Instruction.

G. The President's office is always at the service of new students.

II. Day Students:

Follow the procedure given above, omitting B and C.

Freshmen Week. An orientation program for all entering students is planned for the first week before other students arrive. Specific infor- mation will be sent to each student after enrollment has been made.

The Handbook. The Student Council publishes a handbook which is given to entering students. This handbook contains information concern- ing the school set-up and routine and is a great help to the student.

BOARDING STUDENTS

The Indiana State Teachers College is primarily a dormitory school. It admits as day students only those who live with parents or near rela- tives.

Young men students room in school cottages or in fraternity houses and take their meals in the college dining room. A few men students live in private homes.

Guests. Students and teachers are responsible for meals of their guests at current transient rates. All visitors staying in the college buildings over night must be registered with the Dean of Women by the person or persons entertaining them. This privilege applies only to young women of school age, and should be used only on Saturday night, when it is possible to use a bed of someone who is away for the weekend. Guests are under the same regulations as students and the hostess is responsible for her guest. Students may accompany mothers or older relatives to a hotel for meals or for the night, arrangements having been made in advance with the Dean of Women. The buildings are closed to guests at 10 P.M.

Vacation Charges. Students remaining at the school during Thanks- giving, Christmas, Easter, or summer vacation will be charged at the transient rates

Visits. Success demands concentration of thought. This is prevented by frequent visits at home or elsewhere, and usually time thus spent greatly hinders the progress of the student. The student must decide between sacrificing his school work and limiting the number of his visits.

Electrical and Heating Apparatus. Students are not permitted to use or to have stoves, electric irons, heaters or cookers, or other equipment for producing fire or heat in their rooms. The school provides a candy kitchen which affords opportunity for cooking and making candy.

36 Teachers College Bulletin

Laundry. The laundry of all boarding students, to the extent of ten plain pieces per week, plus towels and napkins, is done in the college laundry. All pieces sent to the laundry must be plainly marked with the owner's name. Name tapes sewed on articles of clothing constitute the best identification. A laundry bag should be owned and used by every student.

An excellent laundry and ironing room with modern equipment is maintained in the basement of John Sutton Hall for the free use of women students.

Room Assignments. Students in school at the close of any school year have rooms assigned to them as follows: If women desire to keep the rooms they have, these rooms are assigned to them. At a meeting the remaining rooms are put up in order of desirability. If two or more groups of women desire the same room, the groups draw lots for it. This process continues until all women in school are assigned to rooms for the following year.

Regulations Governing Resident Students. General supervision of the personal and social welfare of w^omen students is exercised by the dean of women and hall teachers. Student body, faculty and administra- tion co-operate to maintain high standards of social life and conduct. Re- strictions which are put upon the freedom of students are felt to be necessary for successful study and living conditions and for the well- being of the group.

Enrollment in the college implies an agreement on the part of each student to comply with the customs of the college and to obey the neces- sary regulations. Participation in government is vested in the Resident Women's League of which all resident women are members automatical- ly. Representatives from each hall group make up the League Council, which serves as a clearing house for discussing problems and making recommendations concerning dormitory problems. The college hand- book, given to entering students, contains detailed information.

A student is under college jurisdiction from the time of arrival in Indiana in September until June, with the following exceptions: Thanks- giving, Christmas and spring vacation, and at all other times after she reaches her own home.

For going home week ends, first and second year students must have a permission sent from home for each visit, or a form card on file cover- ing any week end. All women are expected to register when off campus for evenings and week ends, and to cancel registration when they return. For first and second year students, week ends spent elsewhere than home must be with parental approval and college consent. A permit from parents to ride in automobiles must be filed in the office of the dean of women at the beginning of each school year. This applies to all women students. The college reserves the right to withhold privileges whenever it is for the best interest of the college or student concerned.

DAY STUDENTS

Students whose homes are not in Indiana and who desire to live with relatives in Indiana as day stadeyits must have the ajrproval of the Presi- dent in advance of registration. Under no circumstances are students permitted to room or board with private families, not immediate rela- tives. Violation of this regulation will result in loss of credit for work.

Accommodations for day students are provided on the ground floor of John Sutton Hall and consist of a large women's lounge attractively furnished, a dining room, and lounge for men. Also a quiet room equipped with cots has been set aside for the use of women who may care to rest or sleep during the day. Additional library facilities recently made avil- able, provide pleasant study conditions for non-resident students, and racks and shelves in lounges offer space for wraps and books. Students through their House Committee assume responsibility for care and use of rooms set aside for them. The administration welcomes suggestions for making day students more comfortable and happy.

SELF HELP AND LOAN FUND

National Youth Administration. During the last four years Indiana, in common with other colleges, has had available under the N. Y. A. through the federal aids to education considerable opportunity for stu- dents to secure work that would aid in paying their expenses. Whether this aid will be extended for the coming year is not known. If it is, there will be open to a number of worthy students who otherwise cannot attend school an opportunity to earn part of their expenses. If the federal aid is not continued, there will be very few opportunities for students to secure work at Indiana that will aid in paying their expenses. The few part-time positions that are available are usually filled by students who have been here two or three years.

Loan Fund. The Jane E. Leonard Memorial Loan Fund was begun several years ago and has been built up largely through the work of fac- ulty and students. During the last few years most of the alumni units have come to the aid of the fund, and some have made very liberal con- tributions. The available loan value has now reached about sixteen thousand dollars.

The governing board in charge of granting loans consists of the Dean of Instruction, Dean of Men, Dean of Women, and an alumni member. The plan in operation provides for granting of loans to juniors and sen- iors, with interest at four per cent, with the regulation that not more than $100.00 be loaned to a student during one semester and that the maximum sum loaned to any student shall not exceed $200.00.

State Scholarships. Holders of State Scholarships may attend State Teachers Colleges and use the scholarship award toward meeting their expenses.

Work. A feiv students are permitted to work in private families for their room and board.

38 Teachers College Bulletin

ADVISORY SYSTEM A carefully worked-out advisory system is in use at Indiana. Every student is assigned to a faculty adviser who assists the student in keep- ing a check on his work and advises him in regard to his program, his outside activities, his scholarship, and other matters. Two or three times each semester a report is made to each adviser concerning the students in his group who are not doing passing work.

GRADE REPORTS

As soon as possible after the close of each semester a full report on the previous semester's work is given every student on a record card pro- vided by the student. Reports of students' grades are not sent to the parents but are given directly to the students. It is assumed that stu- dents who are sent to college are mature and trustworthy enough to re- port correctly to their parents the facts in regard to their grades. If they have not reached this stage of maturity and integrity they would seem to lack qualities highly desirable in prospective teachers. Letters, however, are sent to parents of those students whose grades are below passing or near the margins.

GRADUATION Commencement Exercises. One commencement is held each year at the close of the second semester. Only those students who have com- pleted all requirements for graduation will be permitted to take part in the commencement exercises. The regiilation cap and gown sanctioned by the Intercollegiate Bureau and Registry of Academic Costume are worn by seniors upon the proper occasions.

Alumni Association. Since its organization the school has graduated nearly ten thousand five hundred students from its various curricula. Sixteen hundred ninety-eight degrees have been granted since Indiana was made a college in 1927. The love and devotion of these alumni is an important factor in the future development of the college. At the annual meeting in May, 1933, the constitution of the Alumni Association was changed so that it is now organized on a representative basis with the local unit in each community sending its representatives to the meetings of the executive council, which meets twice each year. In this way it is hoped that every graduate of the school may be brought into relation- ship with the school through membership in an active local unit.

PLACEMENT SERVICE Placement. The service of the Placement Bureau is available to all students of the college who receive certification. The directors of the various departments take an active interest in the placement of their graduates. Co-ordination of effort is secured through a central commit- tee. The Bureau supplies credentials to employers who are seeking ap- plicants for positions and serves as a center where graduates may keep their records up to date. Alumni are using the Bureau increasingly. Teaching positions a/re not guaranteed by the college. Indiana's record of placement, however, is one of the very best in Pennsylvania.

ENGLISH

Througfh its core courses required of all students, the English De- partment offers service to the whole college. The English Laboratory affords opportunity for remedial work to all who need it; here, by regular attendance a student may maintain and improve his skills; or by occasional attendance he may secure help in a temporary difficulty. Because of the need of good English usage on the part of teachers of all subjects, candidates for student teaching must reach a satisfactory standard. See page 24. At the end of the Sophomore year, a general English test is given to all students.

Although only twenty-four hours are required for English majors, it is highly desirable to have a wider background as a preparation for the teaching of English. Most universities require thirty hours of undergraduate English as prerequisite to work toward a Master's de- gree in this field.

Broadcasting Activities. In March 1938, Indiana State Teachers College began a series of radio programs from Station WHJB at Greens- burg, Pennsylvania. This experiment in radio broadcasting gives our students an insight into the possibilities of this new educational agency and affords parents and schools of our service area an opportunity to become acquainted with the activities and personalities of the college. A Radio Committee in co-operation with the credit course in Radio plans the programs. Since December, 1938, the monthly programs have been broadcast from the college campus.

HEALTH AND PHYSICAL EDUCATION

The Physical Education Department conducts classes in health edu- cation and the teaching of health and organizes the physical education activities, intramural sports and varsity athletics.

HEALTH EDUCATION

The new curriculum uses the term Health Education to include both the activity courses and the personal and community hygiene courses prescribed for freshmen. The introductory courses present the basic knowledge essential to healthful living and also develop familiarity with the fundamentals of rhythmic activities and the fundamental skills needed for successful participation in individual and team sports. All students take one year of these prescribed activities, adapted to their needs and capacities.

Health Education I (physical Education and Personal Hygiene)

2 semester hours credit The purpose of the course is to incorporate the theory of health with the practice of it. This course includes: (1) follow-up work after the entrance medical examination in the fall, (2) the study of individual health habits and attitudes, and (3) problems of personal and commun- ity health.

Health Education II (Physical Education and Personal Hygiene)

2 semester hours credit This course logically follows Health Education I. Follow-up work in hygiene is continued i. e., any physical defects that were not over- come in the first semester receive attention. The major emphasis, how- ever, is placed on home, school, and community aspects of health.

Teaching of Health 2 semester hours credit

This course acquaints the student with the essential facts that children of the elementary and secondary schools need in order to de- velop the habits, attitudes, and knowledge necessary for healthful living. Instruction is given in the proper examination of the eyes and ears of school children. Demonstrations of the use of the audiometer and other equipment employed for these purposes are given in the psychological clinic.

Tuberculin Test. For the last three years the tuberculin test has been given to entering freshmen and made available for such upper classmen as were interested in taking advantage of this scientific method of early diagnosis of a preventable disease. This test is now a regular requirement for the entering freshman class and available to all other students who care to take it. The State Deparment of Healh conducts these tests at no cost to students.

PHYSICAL EDUCATION ACTIVITIES

As a requirement for graduation all students must participate in physical activities each semester, except when taking a prescribed physical education course or when doing student teaching.

58 Teachers College Bulletin

Physical Education Activities no credit

To satisfy this state requirement an elective program of physical activities has been inaugurated as follows: individual sports, rhythmic activities, club activities, men's intramural program, Women's Athletic Association intramural program, and varsity program.

Individual Sportsi. These activities include swimming, golf, archery, tennis, badminton, bicycling, winter sports, and other minor games for women and for men, and in addition to the above, boxing and wrestling.

Clubs. Any of the above sports may be organized and participated in by groups or clubs.

Rhythmic Activities. These courses give opportunity to select a dancing activity in which the student has a keen interest or specific ability. Social, Clog, Tap and Folk Dancing are offered for both men and women. Backgrounds of the Modern Dance and Modern Dance Forms are offered to women only.

Intramurals. A well-organized and varied program of sports and athletics is incorporated in the intramural program for men. This group offers all men students a chance to learn the fundamentals of major sports, and through participation, makes available to large numbers of students, the physical, mental, and social benefits that come from organ- ized team play. The program has been expanded to meet the needs of the new curricula in the college, so that fall, winter and spring sports are now available. Six-man football, basketball, volleyball, boxing, wrestling, swimming, pingpong, badminton, tennis, and Softball follow in their proper sequence. Intramural Sports Days were introduced two years ago in both basketball and volleyball. This not only broadens the scope of the program but also affords the educational opportunity of seeing another college in action.

Women's Intramural Sports. The women's athletic activities pro- vide opportunity for college women to learn a variety of sport skills. Each activity, including instruction, practice, and competition extends approximately over a nine-week period. Intercollegiate Sports Days oc- casionally permit women to compete with other colleges. This opportun- ity to be hosts to visiting teams and guests at another college provides desirable social and educational experiences.

Varsity Athletics. Clean, wholesome athletic rivalry has a very vital place in the training of teachers. It provides opportunity for the man of exceptional ability to utilize his skill. He represents the college in inter-competition; and through contacts, adjustments, and sacrifices necessary during his training period and in the games, his educational vision is broadened. Varsity athletics also provide a rallying point around which students, faculty, alumni and friends express their loyalty and support their Alma Mater. Varsity teams in football, basketball, baseball and tennis are at present organized. The program for the future plans to include track, wrestling, volleyball and swimming.

DEPARTMENT OF ART

At Indiana the four-year course with the degree, Bachelor of Science in Art Education, prepares students to be supervisors as well as special teachers of art in senior high, junior high, and elementary schools.

Instruction. Aside from the art courses, English, science, history, government, education courses, and electives are required so that gradu- ates from this department have broad enough background to be intelli- gent teachers of their special subject.

Method. An art-structure (design) method rather than a drawing method of teaching art is used. By this building-up method or syntheses, students use the art elements (line, notan, and color) to build their compositions with the art principles (dominance, rhythm, balance) as guides. Whether drawing still life, painting landscape, constructing in- teriors, throwing bowls, modeling figures, designing costumes, weaving textiles, or making jewelry the important thing is design, and skill and the processes are secondary. Where thoughtful activity and feeling end, the procedure ceases to be art training. Children or adults have little use for mere drawing but unlimited use for design. With other subjects of the curriculum design can hold its own for its intrinsic value in de- veloping fine feeling, judgment, thinking power, and creative expression.

The Art Club. At Indiana there is an art club that numbers all art students and faculty in its membership. This club has become known for its good fun and for the class of entertainment given not only at its monthly meetings, but for the college at large. Its programs have been widely varied: picnics, carnivals, impersonations, productions of original one-act plays, masquerades, costume balls, studio parties, travel talks, lectures on dress and on psychology of color, readings of poetry and humor, trips in the college bus to "The International" and to the Associ- ated Artists' Exhibition. Annually the club gives a bronze medal (The Jean R. McElhaney award for Excellence in Fine Arts) to the junior or the senior who has three outstanding achievements in three different fields of art. The presentation of the medal occurs at the banquet in May.

Exhibitions. In the exhibition and conference room there is con- stantly a showing of some of the best work of the department in draw- ing, painting, modeling, plaster sculpture, interior design, and work in pewter, brass, copper and silver; or exhibitions from outside the de- partment. Of the latter there have been exhibitions of modern American sculpture, watercolors, photography; the best prints of the year; Eu- ropean posters; art work of Viennese children; twenty oils by contemp- orary American artists; the College- Art Association exhibition of stu- dent work; W. P. A. oils, watercolors, and prints; a doll show in historic, national, and character costumes; figure studies, paintings, and litho- graphs by members of art staff.

On this floor are six studios, an exhibition and conference room, a rest room, the locker-room, the director's office, and five other offices. On the fround floor facing east campus are the pottery and kiln rooms. The finest equipment best suited to its purpose has been installed.

Standing. With these facilities and an efficient staff of eight mem- bers, Indiana stands in the foremost rank in art education. Great effort is made to train art teachers and supervisors so that they may catch the vision of the possibilities in art teaching in the present age. Because of a high degree of cultivation such art teachers aim so to teach that finer choices in selection of houses, furniture, and clothing, and better arrangements in homes, offices, stores, gardens, and clothing will be made by the children while they are children and when they grow to be adults. Both children and adults who have received such teaching will also know better how to spend the increasing number of leisure hours.

DEPARTMENT OF BUSINESS EDUCATION

Opportunities. The State Department of Public Instruction has especially designated the State Teachers College, Indiana, Pennsylvania, as one in which teachers of business for the high schools of the Com- monwealth may be trained. The curriculum is four years in length, leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Education. Those who complete the work as outlined are prepared either to supervise or teach business subjects in any of the high schools of the Commonwealth and are certificated accordingly. An excellent opportunity is available here for men and women of high caliber who possess the ability, personality, and ambition requisite for success in this type of work.

Equipment. This department is well equipped throughout with a full supply of modern office machines. Adding machines, calculating machines, banking machines, multigraphs, mimeographs, mimeoscopes, addressographs, dictaphones, files and cabinets, and other up-to-date efficiency devices of modern business give the students a practical knowl- edge of the time-savers and system units found in modern business. Their uses are taught and mastered in this department. Those who elect these courses become very proficient in the manipulation of such machines before graduation.

Business Practice Department. The business practice department is a complete business community in itself and includes not only the procedure but also the actual atmosphere and environment of modern business. It is equipped for efficient and up-to-date work. Much prac- tical business experience may be obtained in this department.

Practical Experience Requirements. These requirements are a vital and necessary part of the prospective teacher's preparation and are an integral part of, and in addition to, the courses outlined in the cur- riculum. Credit, under this requirement, is given for actual business experience previously gained and also for that acquired in the business practice department. The requirements are as follows:

The equivalent of six months of store practice, secretarial practice, bookkeeping practice, clerical practice, or a combination of these or other business contacts, acquired at places and under conditions ap- proved by the director of this department. This experience should be preferably in the field or fields in which the student is contemplating certification.

Student Teaching. Each student in training in the Department of Business Education receives more than the state requirements in hours of actual practical teaching and observation. This is not a makeshift plan merely for the purpose of getting credit. A number of teaching centers are conducted in connection with some of the largest high schools within convenient reach. To these teaching centers the students

Indiana Catalogue Number 77

are sent for one full semester (eighteen weeks) of the senior year for their practice teaching. The teacher holds a regular position in the high school and carries a full program of classes, extra-curricular acti- vities, and any other regular school duties. The work is supervised and criticized by experienced supervisors who are teacher members of the college faculty of this department, and also by supervisors of ex- ceptional training and ability furnished by the teaching centers. Every- thing is done to afford those in training as much actual teaching exper- ience and as many teaching contacts as possible before graduation.

The Chamber of Commerce. There is organized in connection with the Department of Business Education a Chamber of Commerce. Fre- quent opportunity is afforded for public discussion on current popular topics applicable to the work. This organization fosters the formation and development of commercial clubs and similar organizations in the high schools, wherever the assistance is desired, and helps to promote the work of such organizations. The officers of the Chamber of Com- merce are elected from the members of the student body of the Depart- ment of Business Education. The work is supervised by a faculty mem- ber of the Department.

Expenses. The entire school expense for a school year of thrity-six weeks will amount to about $400 for boarding students. This will cover board, room, laundry, books, and department fees. (Also see pages 17-20.)

Explanation of the Curriculum. This is a teachers college. No short courses of any kind are offered in this department for the training of secretaries, bookkeepers, or any other vocational workers. We offer only the full four-year curriculum leading to the teaching profession. The full four years must be completed before the teaching certificate may be awarded.

All courses that are indicated by the asterisk (*) are elective.

All courses that are not indicated as elective are required of all stu- dents in the Business Education Department.

Students may pursue the work of the entire curriculum, or they may elect to pursue work according to their aptitudes, as follows:

1. The Complete Program leads to certification in all three fields, thus affording certification in all of the high school business subjects. Those who possess aptitudes that indicate success in stenographic, ac- counting, and retail selling work may, if they wish, pursue this complete program.

78 Teachers College Bulletin

2. The Stenographic PMeld includes all of the required courses of the curriculum and all elective courses indicated by the letter "S". Any other elective courses indicated by the asterisk (*) may be omitted and in their places may be elected courses from any other department of the college. Certification may be received for these elective courses from other de- partments, if the specific requirements for certification in these courses are met. Those who pursue this program will be certificated to teach all of the business courses in the high school except bookkeeping and retail selling.

3. The Bookkeeping Field includes all of the required courses of the curriculum and all elective courses indicated by the letter "B". Other elective courses indicated by the asterisk (*) may be omitted, and in their places may be elected courses from any other department of the college. Certification may be obtained for these courses from other de- partments if the specific requirements for certification in these courses are met. Those who pursue this program will be certificated to teach all of the business courses in the high school except shorthand, typewriting, and retail selling.

4. The Retail Selling Field includes all of the required courses of the curriculum and all elective courses indicated by the letter "R". Oth- er elective courses indicated by the asterisk (*) may be omitted and in their places may be elected courses from any other department of the college. Certification may be received for elective courses from other departments if the specific requirements for certification in these courses are met. Those who pursue this program will be certificated to teach all of the business courses in the high school except shorthand, typewriting, and bookkeeping.

5. The Combination Program combines either the Stenographic and Bookkeeping, the Stenographic and Retail Selling, or the Bookkeeping and Retail Selling Fields. With any combination program, the certifica- tion appropriate to both of the two groups combined will be awarded. Certain electives in other departments of the college also may be car- ried with this program, in place of the courses listed in the field that is omitted. The usual certification requirements apply also to these electives.

It is possible to elect Typewriting III and IV and become certificated to teach typewriting with either of the fields or a combination of the fields.

Elective Fields. The fields of English, social studies, mathematics, science, geography, education, art, and music are especially recommend- ed, from which courses may be elected by students in business education. All electives, however, are determined by the choice of the student, and by the approval of the Dean of Instruction of the college and the Direc- tor of the Department of Business Education.

Our Standards. Only those who attain "A" or high "B" standings, and whose aptitudes indicate success in the fields elected, should elect more than one field.

Indiana Catalogue Number 79

Those whose standings fall below "C" may not graduate or be certificated.

To elect the Complete Program in the third semester a student must have maintained at least a "C" average during the first two semesters, and must have a grade of "C" or better in the following courses: Eng- lish I and II, Typewriting I and II, Business Mathematics I and II, Book- keeping and Accounting I, and Shorthand I.

To elect the Stenographic Field in the third semester, a student must have a grade of "C" or better in English II, Typewriting II, and Shorthand I.

To elect the Bookkeeping and Accounting Field in the third semes- ter, a student must have a grade of "C" or better in the following courses: Business Mathematics II, Bookkeeping and Accounting I.

To elect the Retail Selling Field in the third semester, a student must have a grade of "C" or better in the following courses: Speech, English II and Economic Geography I.

Those whose standings fall below "C" may not graduate or be certificated. It should also be understood that those who fall below "B" standings are considered unsatisfactory to be recommended for teaching. Since high school standards have been greatly raised, school officials are more particular than ever before concerning the qualifica- tions of those whom they employ. They insist on high scholastic achieve- ment, good personal appearance, attractive personality, freedom from physical defects, and other qualities that should be carefully considered by all those contemplating this type of professional work.

Only a small proportion of high school graduates can meet these very strict requirements. Even after this very frank explanation and announcement, every year, from the upper half of the high school group, a large number of students who fail to measure up to the standards are enrolled. In the past, only about one-third of the students of the selected entering class have met the requirements and have been able to com- plete the work to graduation. This should not discourage those who really have the qualities required. It may, however, prevent those who lack certain of the primary requisites for developing into a high type teacher, from being disappointed later.

If any are in doubt concerning their fitness for this type of work, they should consult their high school principals and guidance oflScers and ask them for a frank and honest statement about their fitness. They should also have all data concerning their personal and scholastic quali- fications sent to the college. They will be notified as to the date for interviews, at which time the matter can be discussed as frankly and wisely as experience will dictate.

Application for Enrollment. Enough has been given in these few pages to furnish a glimpse into the Department of Business Education. A definite, limited number of the best qualified high school graduates are accepted each year. Those who can qualify and who desire to make application for entering the Department of Business Education should get their applications in early, in order to insure a reservation.

DEPARTMENT OF HOME ECONOMICS

The Home Economics Curriculum offers educational preparation for teachers of vocational and general home economics in elementary and secondary schools of Pennsylvania. Graduates of this curriculum receive the degree of Bachelor of Science in Home Economics, which is recognized for entrance to graduate courses by all leading colleges and universities. Our graduates receive a Provisional College Certi- ficate valid for any vocational or general home economics position in the public schools of Pennsylvania. The students in this curriculum may minor in some field in which they show interest and ability.

Home Economics Equipment. The Home Economics Department is located on the top floor of the Arts Building. Here are spacious lab- oratories, classrooms, dining room, unit kitchen, laundry, store rooms, conference room, rest rooms, and offices. The department has been care- fully planned to have all the conveniences of modern architecture. The equipment is modem and adequate in every way. Superintendents who are planning home economics departments in new high schools are in- vited to inspect the equipment and the plan of our laboratories in this building and in the Laboratory School.

Home Management. The Home Management House is located on the campus. It is a large airy house, attractively and appropriately furn- ished. It has the atmosphere of a comfortable and hospitable home. The junior students live in this house and take Home Management III under the direction of a supervisor who lives with them. The management of this home is based on family needs, expenditures, and relationships.

A baby aged about three months is placed in the Home Manage- ment House each September for related work in child care. All Home Management House students who live there one semester have experi- ence in caring for this child.

Nursery School. In connection with the Child Development Course the Home Economics Department has a nursery school which meets one afternoon per week. Children aged two to four years inclusive are en- rolled in the nursery school. This affords laboratory for the course in Nursery School Management and techniques.

Practical Experience. This phase of the training is most vital. Summer projects planned and rated by regular members of the college staff afford opportunities in practical experience in the roles of home making and professional life.

Home Economics Club. The Home Economics Club affiliated with the State and National Home Economics Association. This affiliation is a means of keeping informed on club activities of national importance. All home economics students who make application for membership in

i z

Indiana Catalogue Number 89

the club are admitted and enjoy all the rights and privileges upon the payment of their dues. The club aims to develop a social interest among the students in the department. It is a means whereby the new student finds friends and help in adjusting herself to college life and in getting acquainted with other activities outside of the department. Through the year the members enjoy together picnics, parties, and dances. One large formal banquet is given for the freshmen and sophomores in the first semester. A notable social occasion in the second semester is the "Merry-Go" for the juniors and seniors. At the regular meetings of the club interesting programs are presented under the direction of the club sponsor. Every opportunity is offered to develop initiative, leadership, comradeship, and social adjustment. Membership in two extra-curricular activities, each year is required by the college.

Student Teaching. Student teaching in Home Economics is done in the junior and senior high schools of Indiana and JohnstowTi and in the vocational home economics departments at Barnesboro, Blairsville, and Elders Ridge. A full semester of student teaching is required of all candidates for graduation. This work is carefully supervised by the supervisor of student teaching in the Department of Home Economics.

DEPARTMENT OF MUSIC EDUCATION

The State Teachers College, Indiana, Pennsylvania, is authorized by the State Department of Public Instruction to offer the four-year curriculum for the preparation of supervisors and special teachers of music.

Opportunities In Music Education. The increased recognition of music as a fundamental part of our educational program is serving to emphasize to superintendents and school boards the importance of select- ing as the music teacher an individual of strong character and personal- ity and one who has a soundly developed musicianship and a broad educational outlook.

The demand for well-prepared teachers capable of forceful leader- ship in music is such as to offer excellent opportunity for future success to superior high school graduates whose interest and abilities lead them to select the teaching of music as their profession.

The college has the faculty and equipment to offer and successfully carry out every phase of the preparation and development of public school music teachers and supervisors.

Requirements For Admission. Applicants for entrance to the Music Department meet the general requirements for admission as given on page

In addition the applicant should meet the following special re- quirements which are considered necessary for successful work in the music department:

1. The possession of an acceptable singing voice.

2. Musical sensitivity in such matters as pitch discrimination, tonal and rhythmic memory, harmonic sensitivity.

3. A musical background as a result of private study or a suc- cessful public school music experience.

4. The ability to play the piano or some orchestral instrument representing at least two years of study.

The personal interview for music students is given by the Director of the department. These interviews have proved to be helpful in aiding the applicant to determine his fitness for the work in the music curriculum. Since we have more candidates than can be accepted, it is advisable to make application for admission to the Registrar of the col- lege and arrange for an interview early in the new year.

Expenses. The entire expense for a school year of thirty-six weeks

Indiana Catalogue Number 97

amounts to approximately $488.00. The costs for one semester are ite- mized below. (Also see pages 17-20.)

Contingent Fee (covering the cost of class instruction,

private lessons, and piano rental) $ 90.00

Board, Room, and Laundry 126.00

Estimated cost of books, music supplies, and instrument- al rental 22.00

Student Activity Fee 6.00

$ 244.00

The statement on Private Instruction Fees found under Fees, page 18, does not apply to the students enrolled in the Music Supervisors' Curriculum. The above itemized statement of costs includes all fees charged for enrollment in the Music Supervisors' Curriculum.

Student Teaching. Students in the Music Curriculum at Indiana gain their knowledge of and experience with teaching situations through three definite steps and procedures:

1. By observation periods in the training school during their freshman and sophomore years. These observations are to learn techni- ques while taking prerequisite courses in college, not to professionalize subject-matter.

2. In observation and actual teaching assignments in the training schools during the junior year as part of the courses in Methods and Materials. These assignments are limited in scope but definite as to requirements and responsibility.

3. In twelve semester hours in Student Teaching required during the senior year. This work is done in the elementary and junior high schools located on the college campus and in the elementary, junior, and senior high schools of Indiana.

All Student Teaching is done under careful, personal supervision of critic teachers.

The student teaching assignments are made so that each student may have experience in teaching in each of the six elementary grades for a period of nine weeks and for a period of eighteen weeks in the secondary schools. Personal responsibility for the quality and progress of the music work in each of these assignments gives the young teacher a background of experience in meeting and solving the psychological and technical problems common to the varying age levels.

APPLIED MUSIC Individual Instruction

Any music curriculum which fails to materialize into functional use to the College and Community is sterile. The knowledge and skills ac- quired must be adequately translated into usefulness through individual and ensemble performances. Much experience in listening to and partici- pating in concerts, recitals and broadcasts is provided throughout the

102 Teachers College Bulletin

school year. These functions may occur as informal studio recitals, Music Club informal recitals, formal evening concerts, Cooperative Festival Programs, Union Church Service of Music, Faculty-Student Recitals, Assembly Music Programs, Service Club Concerts and other activities.

MUSIC EDUCATORS CLUB ACTIVITIES

All students of the Music Education Department are automatically members of the Music Educators Club. This organization sponsors trips to Johnstown and Pittsburgh to hear the major symphony orchestras and world renowned concert artists and ensembles. Each class within the club sponsors student recital-teas periodically. Such activities pro- vide opportunities for a desirable type of social intercourse and educate students in accepting responsibility and acquiring social graces so es- sential to the music educator. Student representatives elected by the Club sit in as part of the Music Education Council of Faculty and Stu- dents, which determines the policies of the Department within the framework of the College.
