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 Joseph Bradley and D. A. Beckley. D. J. Waller, Sr. drew up a charter subscribed to by worthy Bloomsburg, 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. In 1856, citizens of In 1866, Henry Carver, of Binghamton, N. Y., taught the school. His unusual influence and personality had much to do with molding its early policies. He insisted that a new building velopment of the Bloomsburg Literary was essential for the future de- Institute. his inspiration, the charter of 1856 was revived and the following elected President, D. J. Waller, Sr.; secretary, I. W. Hartman; trustees, John G. Freeze. R. F. Clark 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 people doubted that the type of building which he planned could be built for that amount, he assumed, in addition to his duties as teacher, the offices of architect and con- Under — officials tractor. 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., George E. Elwell, and Charles Unangst by popular subscription raised $1,200 in a single week for the fine bell which formerly called the students to their classes.

John Hewitt, rector of the :h 27, 1872. piscopal Church at Bloomsburg, who served as principal from March. 1872, to June. 1873. Dr. T. L. Griswold then became principal, serving until 1877. I Those earl) years were trying; subscriptions would fall off and trustees would often meet obligations on their own personal responsibility. In 1875, the dormitory was completely destroyed by fire. In 1876. a larger and more handsome building, the original part of the present Waller Hall built. In spite of discouraging circumstances, the school began paying expenses during Doctor Griswold's administration. In the Fall of 1877, Dr. D. J. Waller. Jr.. became principal. For thirteen years the school grew under his guidance. The Model School and the wing of the dormitory were built during his principalship. When Docl M resigned in 1890. to become State Superintendent of Public Stmction, the school was in a prosperous condition. Dr. ludson P.

Under his administration the College made great advancement, both in the improvement of the physical plant and in the program of teacher education. Major campus improvements included 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 Heating Plant; Fire Towers for several buildings; a complete remodeling of Science Hall and of the auditorium. Educational development during the administration of Dr. Haas moved along parallel with the improvement in the physical plant and has included 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 extra-curricular activities as the A Cappella Choir, Maroon and Gold Orchestra, Maroon and Gold Band, Dramatic Club, and the installation of professional and honorary educational organizations. In June, 1939, the College very fittingly celebrated its Centennial —one hundred years of progress. 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. Before the passage of the first Selective Service Act in 1940, it was apparent that 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. Plant improvements in the war and post-war periods included the cafeteria, renovation of North Hall and wing of Waller Hall for use of men students, construction of fireproof staircases in clock tower, remodeling of Noetling Hall so as to provide Day Men's Lounge facilities, faculty offices, and Audio-Visual Classroom, remodeling of Waller Hall Gymnasium to provide lounge and recreational facilities for students, renovation of Science Hall, improvements in heating plant, construction of the College Commons, and the relocation of the library in Waller Hall. Parallel with the plant improvements, the curriculum offerings were extended to the field of Liberal Arts in a cooperative agreement then existing with Pennsylvania State College, and extension centers were established for teachers-in-service in Wilkes-Barje, Kingston, Hazleton, Sunbury. Shamokin, and West Pittston. "To know, soul-filling of love, serve all human and teach childhood activity.

They are well prepared in their fields; but more important, they are the kind of young people school superintendents welcome to the profession. Of the 1957 graduating class of 219, eighty-three percent are now teaching; only 5 percent are employed in other occupations. Table I—How Many Date Graduates Teach?

Those who enter military service or begin their graduate studies cannot be considered as available for placement immediately following graduation. Nineteen members of the 1957 graduating class are either serving with the armed forces or doing graduate work at the present time. Of the remaining 200 members of the class, ninety-one percent are now employed as instructors in the public schools. This is a record of which Bloomsburg is justly proud.
