Great is thy skill, O builder: Thy fame shall endure for aye." said as they "It shall A teacher builded a temple With loving and infinite care, Planning each arch with patience, Laying each stone with prayer. None praised her unceasing efforts None knew of her wondrous plan, For the temple the teacher builded Was unseen by the eyes of man. Gone is the builder's temple.

Andruss 1927 1939 Academy, Literary Institute, Literary Institute and State NorSchool, State Teachers College such has been the metamorphosis of the present State Teachers College at Bloomsburg. — mal Away back in 1839, a private academy was opened at Bloomsburg. C. P. Waller, a graduate of Williams College, successfully conducted the school for two years. Later public school teachers taught in the academy during their summer vacations. Among the outstanding teachers during this period were Joe Bradley and D. A. Beckley. In 1856, D. J. Waller drew up a charter, which was subscribed to citizens of Bloomsburg and which provided that the school be known as the Bloomsburg Literary Institute for the promotion of education in the ordinary and the higher branches of English literature and science and in the ancient and modern languages. by worthy school. Henry Carver, of Binghampton, N. Y., taught the His unusual influence and personality had much to do with molding its In 1866, tial for the Under early policies.

Cark and William Neal. Mr. Carver assured the trustees that $15,000 would build a suitable building. The energy and enthusiasm of the men were such that when some doubted that the type of building which he had planned could be built for that amount, he assumed, in addition to his duties as teacher, the offices of architect and contractor. his inspiration, the charter of 1856 following officials elected — President, On April 4, 1867, that building, the present Carver Hall, was dedicated with gala observance by the townspeople. Members of the first class at the new school D. J. Waller, Jr., the late George E. •Elwell and the late Charles Unangst by popular subscription raised — — state Teachers College, Bloomsburg, Pa. 18 $1200 in a single week for the fine bell which foi-merly called the students to their classes. The first faculty comprised Professor Cai-ver, teacher of mathematics and the higher English branches; Rev. J. R. Dimm, teacher of Latin and Greek; and Miss Sarah Cai-\'er, teacher of the lower English branches. In the autumn of 1867, James P. Wickersham, State Supei'intendent of Public Instruction, was traveling through Bloomsburg on the train. He saw the new school on the hill "ablaze with lights" and thought the Literarj' Institute's location would be ideal for a State Normal School. So at a meeting in 1868, at which he addressed the citizens of Bloomsburg, it was decided to establish a Normal School under the Act of 1857. A donnitory was completed at a cost of $36,000. The school was recognized as a State Normal School on Friday, February 19, 1869. In September of that year, there were 150 in the Normal Department and 80 in the Model School. The school was called the Bloomsburg Literary Institute and State Noi-mal School until it was purchased by the State May 22, 1916. After that it was known as the State Normal School at Bloomsburg until the name was changed to State Teachers College on May 13, 1927, by the State Council of Education. Up to 1920, when the Department of Public Instruction revised the programs of all the Normal Schools, the school offered college preparatory courses as well as teacher training courses.

For thirteen years the school grew under his guidance. The Model School and the east wing of the donnitory were built during his principalship. When Doctor Waller resigned in 1890, to become State Superintendent of Public Instruction, the school was in a prosperous condition. Dr. Judson P. Welsh served as principal of the Bloomsburg State Noiunal School from 1890 to 1906. During his administration an addition to the four-story donnitory and the gymnasium were built. Science Hall was opened in the Fall of 1906 just after his resignation. Dr. D. J. Waller, Jr., i-esponded a second time to the summons of the trustees, serving as principal until 1920 when he retired from active duties. Dr. Waller gave the Bloomsburg State Normal School twenty-seven years of splendid service as its principal. State Teachers College, Bloomsburg, Pa. 14 He was succeeded by Dr. Charles H. Fisher, who came to the NoiTnal School from the State Department of Public Instruction. He served at Bloomsbui'g from 1920 to 1923. During his administration teacher training was introduced into the Bloomsburg public schools and extension courses were instituted. He was followed by Dr. G. C. L. Riemer, who caane from the State Department of Public Instmction. He served as principal until June, 1927. Dr. Francis B. Haas succeeded Dr. Riemer in July, 1927. Under his administration the College made great advancement, both in the improvement of the physical plant and in the program of teacher education in the Commonwealth. Major campus improvements include the following: the addition of eighteen acres of land; the construction of a new Laundry Building; Elementary Training School; Gymnasium; Junior High School; Shop and Maintenance Building; addition to the Boiler Plant; Fire Towers for several buildings a coonplete remodeling of Science Hall, and the remodeling of the auditorium. ; Smaller projects include the provision of complete and comfortable rooms for day students; the construction of a new recreation field; the adoption of a tree-planting program; the building of new tennis courts; the installation of sound picture equipment in the auditorium; the laying of 2,500 lineal feet of new sidewalk and street curbs, and the addition of new underground steam and electric service. Educational developments during the administration of Dr. Haas parallel with the impi-ovement in the physical plant and include the following; the establishment of the Department of Business Education; the inauguration of a Department of Special Education, with an Educational Clinic for guidance and remedial instruction of problem cases; the organization and development of a student government association; the development of such outstanding extracurricular activities as the A Cappella Choir, Maroon and Gold Orchestra, Maroon and Gold Band, the Dramatic Club, and the installation of professional and honorary educational organizations. moved along nial In June, 1939, the College very fittingly celebrated hundred years of progress. — one its Centen- Dr. Haas resigned in August, 1939, to assume, for the second time, the duties of State Superintendent of Public Instruction for the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. first Selective Service Act in 1940 it the upsurge of industrial activity would decrease enrollments in technical and professional institutions. Thus a transition made over a three year period required only gradual adjustment in plant, personnel, and student-body. Before the passage of the was apparent that War programs involving contracts with the Department of Commerce, Navy Department, National Office of Education, and the Bloomsburg Hospital, enabled the college to inaugurate educational service in addition to teacher preparation, as follows: State Teachers College, Bloomsburg, Pa. 15 Aviation began for college undergraduates in September, 1940; and Navy Aviation Cadets in July, 1942; Naval Flight Instniction School in November, 1942; V-5 Program, Naval Aviation Cadets V-12 Basic Curriculum in July, 1943; Naval Officers Candidates began July, 1943; Engineering, Science, and Management War Training Courses for industrial workers in September, 1940, and Nursing Education in cooperation with Bloomsburg Hospital in September, Army — 1943. These activities enabled the college to face post war problems in education with experiences growing out of wai'-time experimentation. Already the first fruits are evident in the designation in April, 1943, of Bloomsburg as the first college in Pennsylvania (and possibly in the United States) to be approved to offer a field of specialization leading to the Degree of Bachelor of Science in Education for teachers of Aeronautics.

Occasionally there are a few opportunities in the general maintenance service. However, the number of positions at present is so limited that for the most part it is the policy of the college to make them available only after students have deinonstrated ability to meet the standards of the college by completing A few opporin a satisfactory manner the work of the first year. tunities are available to Freshmen for substitute service. All work is paid for at rates from thirty to forty cents per hour, and the maximum number of hours which a student may be employed upon work administered by the college is twenty-five hours per week. This means that under the most favorable conditions the maximum amount that may be earned is ten dollars per week, and that for the most part this is available for upper class students only. — — 2 Household Work Many students secure housing expenses by working in private homes approved by the college. The college refers requests from homes to prospective students. Usually, however, such opportunities are secured through friends or through church or other affiliations. Many students have secured household work and other work through advertisements placed in the Morning Press of Bloomsburg. Students securing such work in a home must secure from the Dean of Women, or the Dean of Men, an "Application for Approval to Live in a Private Home," and have it signed by the parent or guardian of the student, and the housekeeper, and approved by the Dean of Women or the Dean of Men.

Each year now consists of two semesters of eighteen weeks each plus a three-week pre-session, a six-week summer session, and a three-week post session. High school graduates may enter college at the beginning of any semester or summer session with the standards of admission, graduation and the award of teaching certificate remaining the same under the new program as under the usual four year plan. Students wishing to earn their degrees under the usual four year arrangement may do so. The new program is not a replacement of the usual four year program but is an alternate designed to help both the student with limited time and the demand and need for teachers in our public schools. Scheduling Student's Work. At the beginning of evei-y semester a schedule of classes is handed to each student by the Dean of Instruction. It is the duty of the student to enroll in each class and have the instructor of the subject sign the schedule card.

Garrespondence courses are not offered or accepted by this college. Transfer of credits having the lotvest passing grade will not be accepted. Progress Reports and Records. For the purpose of reporting the pix>gress of each student, each semester is divided into periods of nine weeks. During each period the instiTictor hands to the Dean of Instruction a special deficiency report at any time the student is not doing satisfactory work. At the end of nine weeks a complete grade report is made. These grades are assembled and recorded upon a form suitable for mailing and are sent to the parents or guardians of each student. At the end of the semester final grades are reported, recorded upon the permanent progress card of each student and filed. The report is then sent out as before. Any parent not receiving such a report at the end of the nine or eighteen weeks' period should notify the Dean of Instruction and a duplicate will be mailed. System of Grading. Our system of grading and its interpretation is as follows: very high; B high; C average; D low; Cond. condition; — of the — failure involving repetition A A A A A grade grade grade grade grade of of of of of — — A— E entire course.

All students, before receiving a final grade in English I or II, or in Arithmetic I or II, or business Mathematics I or II, must qualify by receiving a passing grade in the standardized tests in English and Arithmetic. This refers to the tests given to all Freshmen each fall. Removal of Conditions. Each instructor imposing a condition at the end of a semester shall file with the Dean of Instruction a detailed statement of the steps to be taken bij the student for the removal of conditions. A printed form must be secured at the Dean of Instruction's office when a condition has been removed. It is the responsibility of the student to have this form signed by the instructor removing the condition and to present it to the Dean of Instruction for recordto be used ing.

A Raising the Quality Point Average for Student Teaching or Graduation. If a student fails to attain the required quality point average of 1.0, he may raise his average by repeating courses in which he received a grade of D or less, or by taking courses other than the repeated courses upon the approval of the Dean of Instruction and the Student Progress Committee. The divisor in the computation of the quality point average is the number of semester hours earned. Residence Required for Graduation.

Eligibility for Participation in Intercollegiate Athletic Contests. A student to be eligible must have secured a passing grade in at work during the quarter preceding least twelve semester hours of each respective sport. Placement Service. The Placement Service of the college cooperates with the Placement Sei-vice of the State Department of Public Instruction, Harrisburg, thus offering additional facilities for the placement of our students and graduates. The Placement Service has for its purpose first of all to assist school officials to secure competent teachers, and second to aid teachers to secure suitable positions in fields of service for which their train-' ing best fits them. state Teachers College, Bloomsburg, Pa. 29 The Placement Service is in charge of the Director, who answers inquiries and gives personal attention to school officials seeking competent teachers. all In order that the Placement Sei-\'ice may serve the interests of the students to the best advantage, students are requested during the time that they are doing their student teaching to fill out a "Registration Blank," giving personal information such as grades and subjects which they are prepared to teach and desire to teach, their preference as to the part of Pennsylvania in which they would like to teach, experience in teaching, and other personal data which superintendents of schools and school boards wish to know when seeking candidates for positions. The opinion of the Teacher Training Department is often sought by school officials. The quality of the work done by students in college courses as well as in student teaching is, therefore a most important element entering into the recommendation of students. In order that the Placement Service may be of maximum benefit to graduating students, it is necessary that those securing positions advise the Director of Teacher Training immediately. This procedure will not only avoid the recommending of a candidate for positions after he is already employed, but will enable the Teacher Training Department to keep in close touch with all those individuals who have not secured teaching positions. Students after graduation from the college are urged to keep up their contracts with the Placement Servace and the Teacher Training Department in order that the college may render further service not only in helping students to secure better positions but to help them in every possible way professionally.

The offering is dependent upon two things; first the demand from teachers-in-service for the course and, isecond, the availability of the faculty instructor. As the member of the faculty conducting such a class receives no extra compensation it must be offered as a part of his regular teaching load. We, therefore, are limited to the offerings of those courses for which a member of the faculty is found available for the work after the regular schedule for the semester has been detertnined. There riculum if Any teacher in service who is interested in this plan will be fully infoi-med by communicating with the Dean of Instruction. The course of study desired should be indicated. The regular members of the faculty will teach the courses. A fee of six dollars is charged for each semester hour credit.

Teachers-in-Service are urged to note carefully the following: (1) Before taking advanced woi-k be sure that you are familiar with the State regulations covering the type of certification desired, and decide definitely the fields that you desire covered by your State Certificate. (2) Be sure that the work which you take will be accepted for certification by the Department of Public Instruction and that it will definitely advance your standing towards the certificate that you desire. In other words, make sure before you begin a course that it will be credited towards your certificate.

THE LABORATORY SCHOOL FACILITIES OF THE COLLEGE Those who are to become teachers should have ample preparation in teaching in typical school situations. Considerable attention has been given to enlarging and strengthening the training school faciliThe Bejamin ties of the State Teachers College at Bloomsburg. Franklin School on our campus houses a kindergarten, special classes for the mentally retarded, and grades one to six inclusive. There is a training teacher in charge of each class, consequently, close supervision is given to the student teaching. State Teachers College, Bloomsburg, Pa. 35^ Student teaching in the secondary field is done in the juniorsenior high schools of Bloomsburg and Berwick, and the high school of Danville. The complete cooperation of the school authorities of the towns of Bloomsburg, Berwick and Danville makes it possible to have a variety of adequate facilities for the training of teachers for the graded schools and secondary schools. The elementary school training facilities, and the junior and senior high school training facilities of the college are typical of the public schools in our service area. The students, therefore, have ample opportunity to observe well-trained teachers at work and to develop skill in teaching by actual experience under public school conditions. Elementary Education provides preparation in these special Early Childhood Education, including Kindergarten, Grades One, Two, and Three; Intermediate Education, Grades Four, Five, and Six; and Rural Education for ungraded and consolidated schools. These special fields are administered by the Director of Teacher Training while the guidance of student teachers and instruction of children is supervised by the Director of Elementary Education. fields: The Special Class in the Benjamin Franklin School offers faciliobservation and student teaching of the Mentally Retarded. The student observes and works with children who range in age from eight to sixteen years, and whose physical and mental abilities may ties for vary to an even greater extent. The slow learning child acquires knowledge and information through his own experiences. Manual activities have a prominent place in the school program because they not only bring the satisfaction that results from having achieved some success but also because they provide a means for developing habits and attitudes of work which may prove helpful to the pupils when they ai'e faced with the problem of earning a living. In many cases, through handwork, idleness in school is replaced by some worthwhile activity. In other cases an attitude of not belonging is changed into one of cooperation; and embarrassment and defeat no longer characterize the child. The student teaching program in the secondary field includes the providing of opportunities for learning to teach the general fields of the junior-senior high school by actual teaching and obsei-vation under the supervision of specifically prei>ared training teachers. These general fields include: English, social studies, mathematics, the sciences, geography, and foreign languages. Training teachers in secondary education are selected on the basis of certification, through preparation to teach their respective subject matter fields, professional preparation to educate others to teach, and desirable personality factors. These specially prepared master teachers have, therefore, two responsibilities, one teaching children efficiently, the other guiding young men and women in learning to teach. ^6 State Teachers College, Bloomsburg, Pa. PROGRAMS FOR VETERANS Bloomsburg, in recent years, has gained an enviable reputation in educational programs for Servicemen and Veterans, largely because of the (1) size of the college, (2) character and experience of its faculty, (3) friendly spirit existing among students and college personnel, (4) assurance of individual attention, (5) refresher courses and individual tutoring (free of charge) to enrolled students, (6) easy accessability, and (7) advisors in all departments. its The college is under contract with the Veterans Administration for the education of veterans of World War 11.

An effort has been made to adjust the curriculum of the teachers colleges to meet these needs. In accordance with this policy, the Presidents of the State Teachers Colleges, with the approval of the Superintendent of Public Instruction, have rearranged the courses, thereby enriching the curriculums. The first two years of the rearranged curriculums will give the students a more thorough academic background. The revised curriculums in the State Teachers Colleges have as their main objective, the reorganization of the sequential relationship of courses so that the professional work will be cumulative and progressive. There will be distinctly professional courses in the first year, more professional courses in the second year, and still more in the third and fourth years. The following curriculums were inaugurated College, (1) at State Teachers Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, beginning September 7, 1987: Four- Year Elementary Curriculum leading to the B.S. in Education, with college certification in (a) Kindergarten-Primary, (b) Intermediate, (c) Rural fields.' The State Standard Limited Certificate may be issued at the end of three years if students make this decision at the end of their freshman year. This certification is valid for three years, during which time the twelve semester hours of advanced credit in the elementary field must be earned in order to renew it for three more years. This process is continued until the four-year requirement for the degree of B.S. in Education has been fulfilled at which time the College Provisional Certificate is issued. (2) Six semester hours, selected from the '"Elective for Special Education" earned in addition to completing the Four- Year Elementary Curriculum may be used to certify a person as a Speech Correctionist or to teach Special Classes for the Mentally Retarded. This means that a person will he certified to teach in the elementary school, and at the same time certified as a Speech Correctionist or to teach adjustment, special, opportunity, or orthogenic classes in the elementary school. (3) Four- Year Secondary Curriculum leading to B.S. in Education, with college certification in two or more of the following fields: Aviation, English, Social Studies, Geography, Mathematics, French, Latin, Spanish, Science and Speech. (4) Four- Year Business Education Curriculum leading to the B.S. in Education, with opportunity to secure college certification in the following subjects Bookkeeping and Accounting, Business Eng: Commercial and Economic Geography, Commercial Law, Commercial Mathematics, Economics, Junior Business Training. Office Practice, Salesmanship, Shorthand, and Typewriting. Relish, tail Selling may also be chosen as a field for certification. State Teachers College, Bliootnsburg, Pa. 44 GUIDANCE IN CHOOSING A CURRICULUM In order that entering students may have an opportunity to explore their interests and try out their abilities and aptitudes in the college situation a uniform curriculum for the first year is followed by those expecting to teadi academic subjects in the Secondary and Elementary schools. Those expecting to teach commercial subjects in the Secondary schools also follow a uniform curriculum for the first year. Following the first year's experience with courses in English, Speech, Geography, Science, Health Education, History, Appreciation of Art and Music, and Place and Purpose of Education in the Social Order (including School Visitation), the student is in a position to choose electives in either the Elementary or Secondary curriculums for the second year, basing his decision on his Freshman courses. After having completed courses in English, Speech, Health Education, Economic Geography, Place and Purpose of Education in the Social Order (including School Visitation) as well as courses in Bookkeeping and Accounting, Shorthand, Typewriting and Business Mathematics, the prospective commercial teacher is in a better position to choose either the Commercial, Accounting, Secretarial, or Retail Selling sequence depending upon his first year's experience. During the Freshman year, to further inform entering students of the nature of the teaching profession, all students take an orientation course entitled "Place and Purpose of Education in the Social Order" (including school visitation). Classrooms of all types and levels are visited. In class, such topics are studied as How to Study,. How to Budget Time, Campus Services, Administrative Organization of the College, The Requirements and Possibilities of Teaching as a Profession, Self-Aanalysis to Determine Fitness for Teaching; all of which are consciously planned to help students to choose their curriculum at the beginning of the second year. Such guidance based on professional information and personal analysis is carried on by means of conferences by faculty members with individual students. Persons entering the teaching profession of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania today must view themselves in the light of the mental, physical and social requirements and possibilities of a career as an educator. : At the outset of the Sophomore year, a second choice necesspeKindergarten-Primary, Intermediate, Rural, or Special Education Group referred to as Groups I^ II, and III in other parts of this catalogue. If the Secondary Curriculum is chosen, two fields; of specialization are selected from among the following: English, French, Latin, Social Studies, Speech, Mathematics, Science and Geography. If the Business Education Curriculum has been followed for one year, to continue one must choose a sequence from the following: Commercial (which certifies all in commercial subjects), Accounting, Secretarial, and Retail Selling. If the cialize in the sary.
