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.

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 


STATE  NORMAL  SCHOOL  INDIANA,   /'.!.  •_•  1 


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.

bered as  one   of  its  founders — as  one  of  its 
first  and  best  friends.
