The established motto indicative of our school's character is "Re-
sponsibility". An inscribed bronze seal set in the floor of the main foyer
proclaims this fact.

The editors of Emblem 1954 have selected as its theme, the "Major
Functions of Living", as an integral part of the new curriculum program ini-
tiated by the Chicago Public Schools. This theme is also representative
of the philosophy of Chicago Teachers College: a flexible program and a
dynamic philosophy founded on the belief in our responsibilities, as educat-
ors and citizens, to freedom and to ourselves.

TO THE

I congratulate you heartily upon this graduation and upon your choice of a vocation. You

lence. Members of the staff who are constantly concerned with the problem of adequately
staffing our schools will assist in every possibleway to moke teaching an attractive, exciting
career for you. We welcome you to our ranks and feel every confidence that you will suc-

IDEALS

^

"Ideals are like stars; you
will not succeed in touching
them with your hands. But like
the seafaring man on the desert
oi waters, you choose them as
your guides, and following
them you will reach your des-
tiny."

— Carl Schurz

TO THE

CUSS

OF

19S4

College education is not standardized, routine or compulsory;
rather, it is opportunity of many types and at many levels — an invitation
to those who wish to learn. For each individual the invitation is also a
challenge to select wisely, to learn from classes and clubs, books and
people, seminars and sports, laboratory and library, all that the opportun-
ity truly holds.

This is the invitation extended by the Chicago Teachers College for
more than four score years and to future generations yet unnumbered.
To the members of the class of 1954, who have accepted the invitation,
made wise use of their opportunities, and now face with confidence the
challenges of the future, the College offers congratulations and the as-
surance of continued interest in you all.

Inherent to Chicago Teachers College is
the CHICAGO SCHOOLS JOURNAL. The
JOURNAL is edited entirely by members of the
faculty and published by the Board of Educa-
tion primarily for Chicago public school teach-
ers. Since 1906, when it was started as the ED-
UCATIONAL BI-MONTHLY, it has proven to be
an extremely valuable service organ for the
teachers of the Chicago public school system.

The JOURNAL contains descriptions of
work actually carried on in the schools, reviews
of recent books, and articles on various trends
in the field of education including curriculum
subjects and advanced thought in cultural,
social, and technical fields. To date, seven
special area supplements listing teaching ma-
terials have been published.

Circulation includes a multitude of edu-
cational institutions and libraries in every
s:ate in the Union and approximately twenty-
six foreign countries.

Chicago Teacher College students have
access to the JOURNAL regularly; sufficient
copies are published so that each student may
have one. Current issues as well as back
numbers are always available in the Publica-
tions Ofiice.

As with most senior classes, one of the most import-
ant and most anticipated events is the senior prom. The
class of June, 1954 held their prom in the Breakers Room of
the Sherry Hotel on April 23. Dick Long and his orchestra
furnished the music for the evening.

The class also entered a float in the Homecoming
parade. The Senior A's had their first extended experiences
in teaching as half-day instructors.

The big day and culmination of four years at C.T.C. is
commencement, June 15, 1954.

1950

One of the highlights in the memories of members
of the Sophomore A class is Homecoming. There, competing
against numerous o'.her classes and clubs, their float, built
in the shape of a rocket ship, was given first place honors.
It was the only motor-driven float in the parade.

Later in the semester, the class sponsored a picnic;
they also initiated two well-attended socials after basketball
games.

The sale of key chains at basketball games and at
Homecoming was the year's money-raising project for the Soph-
omore B class. In the fall they sponsored a "Through the Look-
ing Glass" party in the small gym for all students. They par-
ticipated in the Homecoming festivities by making a float which
was entered in the between-halves competition. In the spring
another all-school social was promoted by this active group.

The Freshman A class arranged four parties and
one group enterprise during their first year at C.T.C.
The first social afiair was a "Get-Acquainted" party
for Frosh A's only. Following that, afternoon all-school
socials were scheduled. A St. Patrick's Day "Sham-
rock Sale" proved highly successful.

urn SIDE eRycH

C. T. t.

Since its relocation on the Wright Junior College campus,
the North Side Branch has seen its enrollment increase nearly
to the hundred mark with every indication that this figure may
be doubled within a semester or two. The faculty now consists
of three full time and twelve part time instructors, some of whom
have been recruited from the Wright staff.

The Branch now provides a program at the senior col-
lege level for students preparing to teach at the Kindergarten-
Primary or intermediate-upper grade levels. Students may
complete their third and fourth years of college work at the
Branch. Many more students are encouraged to continue
working for their degrees because of the convenience of the
location for North-siders. Extended day classes are also offered
and provide an opportunity for in-service teachers to take ad-
ditional courses or to work towards an advanced degree.

The major organization at the Branch is the Raoul R.

uary 6, 1954. During the year F.T.A. sponsored many activities
— Mrs. Lillian Erzinger and Dr. Philip Lewis were featured
speakers — and plans are now under way for a formal dance at
the close of the semester, one of the traditions established when
the Branch was located in the Schurz High School. Other
activities included teas, parties, feature movies — such as "Pas-
sion for Life" — and other special programs.

Students at the North Side Branch also participated in
the student-substitute program in April.

FACULTY

This staff group consists of members whose speci-
fic purpose is to assist and advise the dean. Seven in-
structors are elected from a total of fourteen nominated by-
secret ballot. The Council discusses school policy and
considers material brought to its attention by its members
or by any faculty member. Council members are elected
for one year terms and no person may serve more than
two consecutive terms.

Learning to run business and soc-

sions, and studying the qualifications
of good school leaders and organizers
are but a few of the projects undertak-
en at Camp Workshop.

Founded in 1952 under the auspic-
es of Student Council, Camp Workshop
was repeated in September of 1953 at
Druce Lake, Illinois, and in the spring
of 1954 at Des Plaines, Illinois. Dele-
gates were selected from school organ-
izations and spent two days at the
camp exchanging ideas and re-defin-
ing purposes in an atmosphere of en-
thusiasm and genuine interest.

During the week of freshman registration a special program is given to
acquaint new students with various school services and organizations. After the
assembly program a "coke and chip" party is held in the lunchroom for these in-
coming students.

In connection with this program Student Council publishes a Handbook
containing helpful information about the school.

These days it is important that future

The patient members of the Audio-Visual Cen-

even the most un-mechanically minded student
become a competent operator of movie projec-

plete their work in the Center, they go forth
adequately prepared to use modern materials
of instruction to enrich and improve their teach-
ing.

COURSES

Efiective communication and self-expres-
sion are necessary skills needed by a well-
rounded individual. To facilitate the develop-
ment of these skills, courses in written compos-
ition are offered which aid the student in the
utilization of research techniques and the form-
al elements of writing.

SPEECH

The purpose of these courses is to de-
velop self-expression and self-criticism; em-
phasis is placed upon information, perception,
and reason. Students are given special coach-
ing to improve voice techniques.

DEVELOPING

ECONOMIC

COPETEICE

It is a teacher's obligation to assist each pupil to
develop a practical understanding of economic values.
His continuous adjustment to community life depends
on efficient use of natural and human resources.

Competence in this area deals not only with con-
servation, but with the production, distribution and con-
sumption of goods and services. Courses in the fields
of social studies and mathematics help prepare future
teachers to assume such obligations.

FIRST HID - HEALTH [DOCATIOI

The purpose of this course is to equip students
to care for persons who are injured or ill until trained
medical help arrives. Since knowledge of what to
do in an emergency is vital to teacher training,
practical application of temporary aids, artificial
respiration, and the various methods of bandaging
are emphasized in class sessions.

At the completion of the semester's work,
trainees receive the American Red Cross card certi-
fying completion of the standard course in first aid.

The influence of the teacher in helping to es-
tablish in children desirable habits of cleanliness,
mental hygiene, and the presistent practices com-
mon to daily living cannot be overemphasized. Pert-
inent techniques, information and sources of instruc-
tional materials are all carefully considered in this

The establishment of a Kindergarten De-

into Kindergarten-Primary work in 1933 when
increased enrollment and extended curriculum
in the elementary school necessitated the
change.

chronized swimming, archery, and softball are among the offer-
ings each year. The students may earn awards for participa-
tion in a specified number of recreational pursuits.

The W.A.A. does not limit its work to sports, but ex-
tends annual invitations to women students to attend welcom-
ing teas for incoming students, Christmas Open House, and
the Spring Award Banquet.

An elected board, with the aid of faculty sponsors, co-
ordinates the projects and informs the student body of schedul-
ed events.

One Hundred Twenly-eiphl

In April of 1954, Chicago Teachers College was honor-
ed by the appearance of Robert Frost, one of America's great-
est poets. At an all-school assembly, Mr. Frost read favorite
selections from his works.

"I shall be telling this with a sigh
Somewhere ages and ages hence:
Two roads diverged in a wood, and 1
I took the one less traveled by.
And that has made all the difierence.'

-Robert Frost

CHOIR

"All right, we'll do it nineteen times."

Every one in Choir knows that this means going over a passage
until just the right efiect is achieved. The director, Leonard J. Simutis,
and the students work hard to present the best music at their programs.

The Choir participates in several annual functions of the school,
the Christmas Assembly, Commencement, and the Spring Music Concert.
The latter is the climax of the year's work and currently included the
short opera, "The Telephone".

THEATRE

mmm

The aim of Theatre Workshop is to en-
able students to learn the techniques and be-
come acquainted with the various facets of the
world of drama. Such experience enhances
the potentialities of any future teacher. Besides
producing plays, T.W. presents variety shows,
and sponsors theater parties to commercial
plays.

Scenes from "The Curious Savage"

The major productions of the
past season were "The Curious
Savage" and "Dr. Faustus".
Musical background and danc-
ing were new innovations evi-
dent in the presentation of the
latter.

The group also participated
in the pageant "The Past is Pro-
logue" for the one-hundredth
birthday of the Illinois Educa-
tion Association. The produc-
tion of "Holiday" in May, their
first experiment at theater in
the round, was presented in the
Co-Ed Lounge.
