East  Carolina  Teachers'  Training  School. 


(general  Snformatton 

&ct  of  tfje  General  gtesemblp 

The  East  Carolina  Teachers'  Training  School  was  estab- 
lished by  Act  of  the  General  Assembly,  ratified  the  8th  day  of 
March,  1907. 

"Section  11.  That  there  shall  be  established  and  maintained 
at  some  suitable  point  in  Eastern  North  Carolina  a  teachers' 
training  school,  for  the  training  of  young  white  men  and 
women,  under  the  corporate  name  of  the  East  Carolina  Teach- 
er-' Training  School. 

"Sec.  12.  That  said  school  shall  be  located  by  the  State 
Board  of  Education  at  such  a  point  in  Eastern  North  Carolina 
as  they  may  deem  proper,  and  shall  be  located  in  or  near  that 
town  offering  the  largest  financial  aid,  having  due  regard  to 
desirability  and  suitability  for  the  location  of  said  school. 

"Sec.  13.  That  the  object  in  establishing  and  maintaining 
said  school  shall  be  to  give  to  young  white  men  and  women 
such  education  and  training  as  shall  fit  and  qualify  them  for 
teaching  in  the  public  schools  of  North  Carolina.  And  the 
Board  of  Trustees  hereinafter  provided  for,  in  prescribing  the 
course  of  study  of  said  school,  shall  lay  special  emphasis  on 
those  subjects  taught  in  the  public  schools  of  the  State  and  on 
the  art  and  science  of  teaching. 

"Sec.  14.  That  tuition  in  said  school  shall  be  free  to  those 
who  signify  their  intention  to  teach,  for  such  time  and  upon 
such  conditions  as  may  be  prescribed  by  the  board  of  trustees ; 
and  the  board  of  trustees,  upon  the  recommendation  of  tho 
faculty,  shall  give  those  students  in  said  school  who  have  com- 
pleted   the   required  course  a   certificate  of  proficiency   in   the 

work  done." 

llocatton 

The  school  is  located  in  the  town  of  Greenville,  North  Caro- 
lina on  a  tract  of  forty-seven  and  one-half  acres  of  land.     The 


10  East  Carolina  Teacher*'  Training  School. 

site  is  well-nigh  ideal.  Part  of  the  land  is  covered  with  a 
growth  of  native  trees  and  lends  itself  beautifully  to  the  estab- 
lishment of  a  school  park. 

^tstorp 

July  2,  1908  ground  was  first  broken.  The  following  build- 
ings have  been  erected :  Boys'  Dormitory,  Girls'  Dormitory,  Ad- 
ministration Building,  Kitchen  and  Dining  Hall,  Laundry  and 
Power  Plant,  and  Infirmary.  October  5,  1909,  the  school 
opened  its  doors  for  students.  During  this  year  four  hundred 
and  sixty-one  students  have  been  enrolled. 

As  is  seen  in  the  act  of  the  General  Assembly,  Section  13,  the 
object  of  the  State  in  establishing  and  maintaining  the  school 
is  "to  give  to  young  white  men  and  women  such  education  ami 
training  as  shall  fit  and  qualify  them  for  teaching  in  the  pub- 
lic schools  of  North  Carolina." 

This  is  a  professional  school.  Its  aim  is  to  teach  its  stu- 
dents not  only  subject  matter,  but  also  the  processes  by  which 
the  learning-mind  acquires  knowledge.  Its  purpose  is  to  give 
the  students: 

1.  Such  knowledge  of  the  studies  taught  in  the  public 
schools  as  a  teacher  must  have  in  order  to  teach  them  properly. 

2.  A  knowledge  of  other  studies  that  are  so  related  to  the 
branches  taught  in  the  public  schools  as  will  give  a  proper 
understanding  of  the  public  school  branches. 

3.  A  knowledge  of  the  mental  and  physical  powers  of  the 
child  and  their  methods  of  development. 

4.  A  knowledge  of  the  principles  of  education  and  methods 
of  teaching,  and  their  application  in  the  actual  work  of  the 
school  room. 

5.  A  knowledge  of  the  methods  of  organizing  and  managing 
schools. 

6.  A  knowledge  of  the  school  laAv  of  the  State. 

In  brief,  this  institution  aims  to  prepare  teachers  both 
theoretically  and  practically  for  teaching  the  public  schools  of 
North  Carolina. 


East  Carolina  Teachers'  Training  School.  11 

Discipline 

In  conducting  a  school  for  young  men  and  women  who  are 
about  to  assume  the  responsibilities  of  so  serious  and  dignified 
a  profession  as  teaching,  there  should  be  no  occasion  for  arbi- 
trary and  iron-clad  rules.  Each  student  should  attend 
promptly  and  faithfully  to  every  duty  and  have  due  consid- 
eration and  regard  for  the  rights  and  privileges  of  others. 

Xo  rules  are  made  by  the  school  authorities  except  those 
necessary  to  govern  routine  work,  but  if  the  pupil  is  found  to 
be  falling  off  in  his  studies,  neglecting  his  duties  or  exerting 
an  unwholesome  influence,  prompt  steps  are  taken  for  his 
amendment.  If  a  pupil  does  not  show  some  disposition  to  con- 
form to  high  standards  he  can  hardly  be  considered  good  ma- 
terial for  a  teacher;  and,  if  he  is  found  unresponsive  to  patient 
endeavors  to  bring  him  into  the  proper  attitude  to  his  duties, 
he  is  requested  to  resign  his  place  in  the  school.  Every  effort 
is  made  to  lead  the  students  to  choose  the  right,  and  the  results 
for  the  past  year  have  been  wholly  satisfactory. 

In  the  spirit  of  the  institution  is  found  the  discipline  of  the 
school. 

dormitories;  ano  &ooms 

The  school  is  equipped  with  dormitory  space  for  two  hun- 
dred and  twenty-four  students.  Each  dormitory  room  is  pro- 
vided with  two  single  iron  beds,  with  springs,  mattresses  and 
pillows,  two  chairs,  a  table,  washstand,  bureau  and  wardrobe — 
all  the  necessary  furniture  for  comfortable  living. 

There  is  a  central  heating  and  lighting  plant  that  provides 
steam  heal  and  electric  lights  for  all  the  buildings.  A  modern 
system  of  ventilation  is  installed.  The  plumbing,  draining  and 
all  those  things  necessary  for  good  sanitary  conditions  are  of 
the  best  type  procurable.  The  school  gets  its  water  from  the 
town  of  Greenville.  The  town  owns  ita  own  waterworks  and 
has  the  water  examined  frequently,  thus  insuring  its  purity. 
In  short,  the  home  life  of  each  student  is  made  as  comfortable 
as  can  be,  and  every  possible  precaution  for  health  is  taken. 


12  East  Carolina  Teachers'  Training  School. 

During  the  past  year  the  general  health  of  the  student  body 
has  been  entirely  satisfactory. 

Culinary  department 

The  school  dining  room  is  perhaps  the  prettiest  hall  in  the 
institution.  The  equipment  in  the  kitchen  is  modern  in  every 
sense.  For  the  preservation  of  meats,  vegetables  and  other 
food-stuffs,  the  school  has  established  a  refrigerating  plant  of 
the  best  type.  A  graduate  of  Drexel  Institute  has  charge  of 
the  Culinary  Department — the  object  of  the  school  being  to 
provide  for  its  student  body  the  most  wholesome  food  and  to 
see  that  this  food  is  prepared  in  the  best  way  possible. 

jfflebtcal  attention 

The  school  physician  pays  daily  visits  to  the  institution.  A 
resident  nurse  is  in  charge  of  the  infirmary.  This  building  is 
equipped  with  all  the  necessary  furniture.  Heating,  lighting, 
plumbing  and  ventilation  modern. 

&bministration  iSuilbing 

In  the  Administration  Building  are  to  be  found  the  school 
offices,  Library,  Chemical  Laboratory,  ten  recitation  rooms, 
four  music  rooms,  and  the  Assembly  Hall.  Each  room  is  well 
equipped  and  ventilated.  The  Assembly  Hall  has  a  seating  ca- 
pacity of  eight  hundred.  Here  the  devotional  exercises  are 
held  daily. 

launbrp 

The  laundry  is  equipped  with  all  the  necessary  machinery 
for  efficient  laundry  work.  The  equipment  here,  as  in  the 
other  buildings,  is  of  the  best  possible  type. 

Athletics 

The  students  are  provided  with  a  ball  ground  and  four  tennis 
courts.  They  are  encouraged  to  take  a  sufficient  amount  of 
outdoor  exercise  to  insure  good  health.  For  this  purpose,  walks 
will  be  laid  off  in  the  park  and  each  student  is  requested  to 
spend  at  least  one  hour  each  day  in  the  open  air.

g>tubents'  Outfit 

Each  student  is  expected  to  bring  for  his  own  use  the  follow- 
ing articles :  Two  pairs  of  sheets,  one  pair  blankets,  two  white 
counterpanes,  two  pillow  cases,  six  towels,  six  table  napkins,  a 
spoon  and  a  glass. 

Only  single  beds  are  used. 

All  articles  to  be  sent  to  the  Laundry  should  be  plainly 
marked  with  indelible  ink. 

<£rgam?aticmg 

The  attitude  of  the  school  toward  organizations  is  to  encour- 
age those  that  are  intended  to  preserve  health,  develop  charac- 
ter and  the  spirit  of  democracy. 

Athletic  Association 

Officers.— J.  L.  Rawles,  Manager;  E.  D.  Dodd,  Captain. 

The  young  men  organized  a  baseball  club  and  played  sev- 
eral games  during  the  year,  making  for  the  school  a  very  satis- 
factory record. 

3Tarbis  iflemorial  Uiterarp  g>ocietP 

Officers.— S.  F.  Linton,  President;  L.  A.  Harper,  Secretary- 
Treasurer. 

The  Jarvia  Memorial  Literary  Society  was  organized  by  the 
young  men  of  the  school  to  encourage  public  speaking  and  de- 
bate.    Its  work  for  the  past  year  has  been  most  satisfactory. 

goung  Somen's  Christian  Association 
Officers.— Pattie    S.    Dowell,    President;    Vada     Highsmith; 

Vice-President;   Virginia    Dail,     Secretary;    Louise     Fleming, 
Treasurer. 

The  young  women  of  the  school  organized  themselves  into  a 
Young  Women's  Christian  Association  and  held  devotional  ex-

The  work  of  the  English  Department  is  intended  to  give  the 
student  a  thorough  grounding  in  the  fundamental  principle? 
of  our  language,  and  to  acquaint  him  with  the  principles  of 
English  Grammar  and  Rhetoric — to  develop  a  fondness  for 
good  literature. 

The  work  of  the  first  and  second  years  is  intended  as  a  basis 
upon  which  the  two  years  of  professional  training  shall  rest. 
In  the  Junior  and  Senior  years  the  work  is  given  with  the  fol- 
lowing ends  in  view : 

To  cultivate  the  love  of  general  literature  for  its  own  sake;, 
to  give  the  pupil-teachers  the  right  attitude  toward  English 
teaching;  to  dignify  and  magnify  the  office  of  English  in  the 
common  schools,  and  to  show  that  teachers  can  bring  life  and 
interest  to  English  speaking  children  in  the  study  of  their 
mother  tongue.

Science 

It  is  the  one  purpose  of  our  science  courses  to  train  for  in- 
telligent living  and  intelligent  service. 

This  involves  a  thorough  knowledge  of  the  fundamental 
principles  of  our  several  subjects  of  study,  a  knowledge  of  the 
facts  which  make  these  principles  clear,  and  a  knowledge  of 
the  science  facts  necessary  for  daily  life. 

Inasmuch  as  the  goal  of  instruction  is  not  reached  until  the 
individual  has  acquired  the  power  to  use  the  knowledge  he 
has  gained,  power  to  work  independently  of  the  teacher,  power 
to  think  accurately  and  clearly,  these  features  are  stressed  and 
opportunity  is  constantly  offered  to  apply  the  knowledge 
gained  to  the  practical  and  everyday  affairs  of  life. 

Our  science  courses  lead  up  to,  prepare  for  and  culminate 
in  the  subjects  most  closely  related  to  the  lives  of  the  people 
of  North  Carolina — 

(a)  Geography — A  study  of  the  earth  in  its  relations  to  life, 
its  control  over  life  and  the  way  life  responds  to  the  various 
geographic  factors ;  and  the  way  man  adjusts  himself  to  and 
utilizes  the  factors  of  his  environment  best  to  meet  his  needs. 

(b)  Physiology  and  Hygiene — A  study  of  the  human 
mechanism  to  the  end  that  it  may  receive  more  intelligent  care 
and  attention  and  result  in  healthier,  happier  and  more  ef- 
ficient living. 

(c)  Agriculture — To  assist  us  in  solving  the  problem — "Who 
can  raise  the  best  plant  or  animal?"  and  bring  to  the  problem 
and  its  solution,  common  sense,  good  judgment,  and  a  knowl- 
edge of  the  principles  which  underlie  efficient  agriculture 
— the  greatest  and  most  important  occupation  of  man — so  as 
to  dignify  it  and  bring  it  up  to  the  rightful  place  it  should 
bold  boI  only  in  the  minds  of  those  who  engage  in  this  occupa- 
tion, but  in  the  minds  of  all  others. 

( <1 )  Home  Economies — How  to  improve  the  conditions  in 
and  about  our  home;  to  discover  those  factors  that  make  for  a 
more  sanitary  and  a  more  hygienic  mode  of  living,  and  that  in- 
fluence the  physical,  mental,  moral  and  aesthetic  nature  of  man. 


East  Carolina  Teachers'  Training  School.  21 

This  involves  the  questions  of  sanitation,  food  and  its  proper 
preparation,  home  decoration  and  dress.

Pedagogy  is  an  essential  department  of  a  Teachers'  Train- 
ing School.  The  instruction  in  this  department  deals  with  the 
fundamental  principles  of  education;  the  relation  of  the  dif- 
ferent branches  of  knowledge  to  one  another  and  to  the  mind, 
and  the  method  by  which  the  human  powers  may  be  trained, 
and  the  mind  stored  with  knowledge.  It  deals  with  the  theory 
and  the  practice  of  teaching. 

The  Department  of  Pedagogy  in  this  school  devotes  some 
time  to  a  study  of  the  fundamental  laws  of  mind  that  the 
students  may  utilize  their  knoAvledge  of  these  mental  activities 
in  their  own  study.  This  includes  within  its  scope  a  study  of 
Child  Development  and  How  to  Teach  Children  to  Study. 

The  Teaching  Process  is  emphasized  with  the  aim  of  en- 
abling the  students  to  understand  and  make  a  practical  applica- 
tion of  the  principles  involved  in  good  teaching  and  the  meth- 
ods employed  to  realize  the  goal  in  the  process  of  education. 

IJrimarp  ffienjobs 
This  course  will  cover  the  work  of  the  first  three  grades  and 
will  consist  of  lectures,  discussions  and  observations  of  work 
done  with  a  class  of  young  children.  The  aim  of  the  course  is 
to  get  a  correct  idea  of  the  methods  which  have  been  most  suc- 
cessful in  teaching  reading,  language,  number  work.  etc.  m  the 

lower  grades. 

sfecftool  Management 

It  is  the  purpose  of  this  course  to  discuss  the  various  prob- 
lems confronting  the  teacher  in  the  organization,  the  conduct. 
and  the  management  of  the  school.  It  proposes  in  addition  *o 
the  treatment  of  methods  and  their  skillful  use,  to  emphasize 
the  practical  and  vital  topics  in  school  management  in  such 
manner  that  it  may  aid  the  teachers  to  fill  that  wider  function 
of  training  pupils  for  the  duties,  responsibilities  and  obligations

The  courses  in  drawing  are  planned  to  give  all  students  who 
wish  to  teach  Primary  and  Grammar  grades  a  practical  knowl- 
edge of  drawing. 

The  purpose  is  to  train  the  mind,  the  eye  and  the  hand  to 
work  together — to  cultivate  habits  of  thought  and  observation 
and  to  create  an  appreciation  of  the  beautiful. 

The  courses  are  adapted  to  the  needs  of  the  student-teacher 
both  as  a  learner  of  the  principles  of  drawing  and  as  a  pros- 
pective teacher  of  the  subject.

The  object  of  this  course  is  to  prepare  teachers  to  conduct 
the  singing  in  their  schools,  and  to  instruct  them  in  the  funda- 
mental principles  of  music.  Public  school  music  as  presented 
to-day  recognizes  the  fact  that  its  great  value  lies  in  singing 
with  interest  and  expression.  The  foundation  of  musical 
knowledge  is  laid  through  the  acquisition  of  a  repertoire  of 
beautiful  songs.  Attention  is  given  to  technique  and  to  ex- 
pression ;  the  elements  of  music  being  studied  through  the  me- 
dium of  songs.

Spring  anb  Summer  Counsel  for  Ceacfjers; 

It  is  the  aim  of  this  school  to  render  every  service  it  can  to 
advance  the  best  interest  of  public  education  in  the  State. 
Realizing  that  many  teachers  engaged  in  the  work  wish  to 
study  after  their  schools  close  that  they  may  better  equip  them- 
selves for  their  profession;  also  realizing  that  the  schools  of 
the  counties  do  not  close  at  the  same  time,  the  Training 
School,  to  meel  these  conditions  for  the  past  year  offered  two 
courses  of  instruction.  The  results  of  this  year's  work  were  so 
satisfactory  thai  the  Training  School  course  for  teachers  has 
become  a  permanent  part  of  the  school's  work. 


40  East  Carolina  Teachers'  Training  School. 

Courses  of  g>tuop 

For  the  past  year  the  following  courses  were  offered: 

Course  A — March  15th  to  July  30th. 

English — Grammar,  Composition  and  Literature;  Mathemat- 
ics— Arithmetic;  Pedagogy — Hamilton's  The  Recitation;  His- 
tory— United  States  and  North  Carolina;  Civil  Government, 
Geography,  School  Management,  Lectures  on  School  Organiza- 
tion and  Management. 

Course  B— May  24th  to  July  30th. 

Course  B  same  as  course  A  for  the  first  term.  Those  who 
entered  in  May  were  allowed  to  select  twenty-five  hours  of 
work  from  those  subjects  beginning  at  that  time  in  either 
Course  A  or  Course  B.  The  object  of  this  arrangement  was 
to  enable  the  teacher  to  study  those  subjects  he  needed  most. 
The  aim  of  these  courses  was  better  to  equip  the  teacher  for 
his  work ;  to  enable  him  thoroughly  to  master  the  contents  of 
the  texts  studied  and  to  acquire  that  skill  necessary  to  impart 
that  knowledge  to  his  classes. 

The  text-books  studied  were  those  taught  in  the  public 
schools. 

Instrumental  music  was  offered  to  those  who  desired  to  take 
that  study. 

The  work  in  these  courses  was  of  such  a  nature  that  those 
students  who  continued  through  to  the  end  of  the  term  and 
took  the  examinations  were  given  credit  for  the  work  done, 
provided  they  made  satisfactory  grades. 

It  is  the  aim  of  the  school  to  offer  a  course  next  year  that 
will  be  a  continuation  of  the  work  done  during  the  past  spring 
and  summer,  so  that  those  teachers  who  have  attended  either 
the  spring  or  the  summer  course  this  year,  may  continue  their 
Btudies  if  they  desire.

The  East  Carolina  Teachers'  Training-  School  was  estab- 
lished  by  Act  of  the  General  Assembly  of  1907.  This  Act  pro- 
vided "'that  said  school  shall  be  located  by  the  State  Board  of 
Education  at  such  a  point  in  eastern  North  Carolina  as  they  may 
deem  proper,  and  shall  be  located  in  or  near  that  town  offer- 
ing the  largest  financial  aid,  having  due  regard  to  desirability 
and  suitability  for  the  location  of  said  school."  The  State 
Board  of  Education  selected  Greenville,  and  here  on  a  tract  of 
forty-seven  acres,  six  beautiful  buildings  have  been  erected. 
These  buildings  are  modern  in  every  particular — heating,  light- 
ing, ventilation  and  sanitation.  Each  room  in  the  dormitories 
has  a  closet  and  is  furnished  with  two  single  iron  bedsteads 
with  good  springs,  the  best  grade  of  felt  mattresses,  pillows, 
bureau,  washstand.  table  and  chairs — all  the  furniture  neces- 
sary for  comfortable  living. 

The  management  of  the  school  is  vested  in  a  Board  of 
Trustees,  consisting  of  nine  members  appointed  by  the  State 
Board  of  Education,  with  the  State  Superintendent  of  Public 
Instruction  as  chairman,  ex  officio.  "Two  members  of  the  said 
board  shall  be  selected  from  the  First  Congressional  District, 
two  from  the  Second,  two  from  the  Third,  two  from  the 
Fourth,  and  one  from  the  Sixth."*

6  Bast  Carolina  Teachers'  Training  School. 

$urposie 

The  Act  establishing  the  institution  gives  its  purpose  in  the 
following  words:  "The  object  in  establishing  and  maintain- 
ing said  school  shall  be  to  give  to  young  white  men  and  wo- 
men such  education  and  training  as  shall  fit  and  qualify  them 
for  teaching  in  the  public  schools  of  North  Carolina.  *  *  * 
The  course  of  study  of  said  school  shall  lay  special  emphasis 
on  the  subjects  taught  in  the  public  schools  of  the  State,  and 
on  the  art  and  science  of  teaching."  This  is  to  be  a  Normal 
School.  But  realizing  that  normal  work  can  not  be  effective 
until  the  foundation  is  well  made,  this  school  will  give  to  its 
students  a  good  rudimentary  education  as  well  as  pedagogical 
training. 

&egutrements;  for  gfomueteton 

For  1909- 19 10,  any  student  who  wishes  to  become  a  teacher 
and  has  successfully  completed  the  first  year's  work  of  the 
high  school  course,  as  prescribed  by  the  State  Superintendent 
of  Public  Instruction,  may  be  admitted.*  If  a  student  has 
access  to  a  good  high  school,  we  advise  him  to  remain  in  the 
local  school  until  he  completes  the  course,  then  come  to  this 
school  for  his  professional  training.  Students  more  advanced 
than  the  first-year  high  school  work  will  be  given  credit  for  the 
work  they  have  done.
