REPORT OF THE ClIi^RICl]T.AR AIJD CREDB'TL'kLS COmilTTES July 17, 1942 Re: Resolution of North'vYestern Pennsylvania Couiity Superintendents, January 20, 1942. The Committee has studied the resolution passed by the County Superintendents of Northwestern Pennsylvania on January 20, 1942, requesting the issuance of ILmited certificates to students in State Teachers Colleges at the end of the fourth semester. After examining reports from various sections of the state, your Committee believes that th-cj need for teachers does not justify a radical reduction in the standards of teacher education or certification such as is implied in the resolution. The Cojnmittee further believes that present provisions for the issuance of emergency certificates will take care of shortages for the school year of 1942-1943. The Committee believes it to be i'l the interest of the children of the Co]nmonv:ealth to maintain the standard of four years of education for teachers. The Committee expresses willingness to set up special arrangements of courses when need for this is demonstrated, but believes even in such cases, emergency certification shouJ.d be granted in accordance with -.1565- i present proceduro.

Room 317 The meeting of the Deans of Instruction of the State Teachers Colleges was held in Room 317, Education Building, Friday, July 31, 19^2. The meeting was called to order at 9:30 A.M., Eaatern *?ar Time v,ith the following members present: Thomas P. North Paul l^'alker W. McKinley Menchan Charles F. Becker Charles J. Naegle Ralph Heiges Clark R. McClelland J ames G Morgan Sanders P. McComsey Earl Wright Cornelius D. Jaarsma Winfield W. Menhennett . Bloomsburg California Cheyney Clarion East Stroudsburg Indiana Kutztown Mansfield Millersville Shippentiburg Slippery Rock West Chester Harry L. Kriner, Assistant Director, Teacher Education and Certification Henry Klonower, Director, Teacher Education and Certification Dr. Henry Klonov?er, Director of Teacher Education and Certification, opened the meeting iftith introductory remarks. He stated that the annual meeting of the Deans was too important to omit because of war conditions. It is of value to each of the Deans but it is also valuable to the Department. It is particularly valuable today because of the meeting at 11:00 A.M. with the Testing Committee of the State Teachers Colleges. He discussed the problems of supply and demand of teachers as it affects the work of a Dean. He further expressed his appreciation of the cooperation of the Deans in coming to the meeting. Dr. Harry L. Kriner, Assistant Director of Teacher Education and Certification, then took charge of the meeting as Chairman, and welcomed the Deans It was to the meeting, asking them to enter the meeting in an informal manner. reported that Dean Offner of Edinboro was enrolled as a graduate student in Teachers College, Columbia University. A telegram stated that De.in MacDougall The purposes of the of Lock Haven could not be present because of illness. followed in order to cover the docket in meeting, as well as the procedure to be the Deans in a meetwas pointed out that the allotted time, were discussed. It Colleges, but tnat they Teachers for the State ing could not determine policies means of administering the policies could determine effective ways and effective of Presidents. which have been passed by the Board -1- The topics on the Docket were then discussed as follows: A. PROBLEMS IN CONNECTION VilTH THE WAR 1. In granting credit for partly completed courses for persons going into the armed forces, it was the concensus of opinion that poor students might be inclined to enlist if they could receive credit for incomplete work. Several of the colleges have a plan whereby an examination may be given in lieu of work uncompleted for full credit. This is a problem which should be placed on the basis of the quality of ork completed by each individual student. It v/as agreed th-vt this was an individual problem as far as the student and theinstitution is concerned. The average credit given to college students is one credit per each v/eek of college attendance. It was felt th t full credit might be given in skill subjects where a certain proficiency is required and attained and no credit in subjects where competency could not be demonstrated. The Deans felt that no student should be given credit for work that was not done. The colleges will be in a better position after the war if we have substantial r. cords vvhich can easily be understood. The three points gathered from this discussion were as follows: 1. 2. 3. Granting of Credit is an individual problem so far as the student and the college is concerned. The regulation of allowing one credit per week of attendance should be adhered to rather closely. The report should be so recorded that it might be considered a closed case in order that it can be picked up by any one, eitner in the institution or another college, after the war is over. 2. A discussion was given to the scheduling of work in civilian pilot training courses and the problsms involved were found to be largely concerned with individual institutions. Dean Beiges felt th t those who took the civilian pilot training courses earned the four credits which may be given to the student, either as free electives or in the field of mathematics and in science. Wherever credit is permitted in an elective fielf, it 7«as thought advisable for the credit to be in keeping with the regulations for graduation and certification and should be determined by the Dean with the help of the head of the department concerned. Extension classes were well attended last year, but because of the gasoline and tire rationing, the problem of organizing a program to meet the demands of teachers-in-service is confusing. Dr. Jaarsma suggested that each college make a survey of the extension and part-time campus classes, as demanded by the teachers in the area. Then the program which will meet the greatest demand and can be handled under present regulations should be offered either on or off the campus, according to the results found in the survey. The Deans agreed with Dr. North when he stated that the extension centers should be kept alive if possible or otheiwise they might be taken over by other colleges. 3. In beginning the discussion of demand for teachers and recruiting 4.. of students to maintain a reasonable su ply, it was pointed out that there was a shortage in certain sections hile other sections and districts have an over It was further pointed out that supply, especially of certain types of teachers. the Deans shoiold know the fields and the districts in whicy the supply was not equal to the demand. No doubt, the Deans have a duty in encouraging gradu tes -2- to accept positions in those districts in vyhich there is a demand for their services. The Deans were also asked to use their influence in having Superintendents fill their vacancies where possible -.vith teachers having the higher type of certificates, rather than to hc.ve them filled i^ith holders ox" an old partial elementary certificate or some type of certificate vyhich indicates a low level of preparation. It was pointed out that it would be advantageous for the boys and girls of the Commonwealth, as well as for the colleges for the Deans to encourage all te chers who because of the emergency are re-entering the profession to take refresher courses and to work toward the completion of a degree curriculum v.here such is not already a fact. The use of the elementary temporary standard certificate was explained. Teaching on this certificate cannot be used as part of the three years experience needed to make a college certificate permement. If a college certificate valid in the secondary field has been extended to include the elementary field, the three years of teaching experience on the college certificate in the elementary field would count toward making the certificate permanent. In order to use a teacher on the basis of the elementary temporary standard certificate, evidence must be given that there is no qualified elementary teacher available for the vacancy and the certificate must be requested by the superintendent of schools and must be for one specific position. The certificate is not issued to anyone and everyone holding a college certificate valid in the secondary field. College morale is a major problem resulting from the war. Immediately $. after the Pesrl ?Iarbot incident, college morale became low and the student attitude was one of "what's the use." The result was, naturally, low grades and an increase in failures. However, with the second semester last year and the present summer session the attitude has been completely reversed. The trend now seems to be that "we h;.ve a job to do and we must get the most out of college while we can." It was agreed that the Deans should do all possible to keep the morale of the faculty and students on a high level. In the organization of classes and the scheduling of students, this factor should be kept in mind. Dr. Jaarsma suggested that the morale was helped by making use of an accelerated program and by tne absorption of surplus faculty members into the armed forces. MEETING WITH TESTING COfjftilTTEE The meeting of the Deans of Instriction .^djourned and the Deans went to Room 321 where the Testing Committee had been finishing their work on the Sophomore At this meeting the various Tests which had been given in the college last spring. graphs prepared from the results of the tests were distributed. There was a general discussion on the use which could be made of these graphs and the results of the tests. The Deans had a number of questions answered concerning the construction of the graphs and the meaning of them. It was the concensus of opinion that the results of these tests would be helpful to the Deans in the administration of their work. This Meeting Adjourned at 12:15 P. M. NOON HOUR Meeting Re-convened it 1:15 P. M. -3- B. CUHRICULDM AMD INSTRUCTION Typed sheets of the program of courses for the elementary cnrricni!• and the explanation of specialization and electives were passed out to the Deans. Under the new curriculum It is not necessary f or a student to specialize The grades in which in Early Childhood, Intermediate, or Rural Education. student teaching was completed and grades for which curriculxim materials were made applicable should be indicated on the Approved Education Certificates used in applying for a college certificate. Unless the student teaching and. the curriculum materials were completed for grades below the fourth. Early Childhood Education may not be placed on the certificate as a field of specialization. Likewise the experience shall be in grades four, five, and six to have specialization in the Intermediate grades. Every student may be certified in just the elementary field. Beginning next year the action of the Board of Presidents in this connection as far as certification is concerned will be followed. If no notation ©f the field of specialization appears on the transcript, the student will be certificated in elementary subjects. Dr. North asked whether it was better to specialize or just give work in the elementary field. The majority of the Deans were of the opinion that specialization was not the best, since a broader area is necessary In the schools where the students must find a position and often specialization operated against an E^plicant. l\im In checking the recent revisions in all curficulums, the Deans were 2# urged to make sure that graduates have all subjects which are required by State Council action. According to the action of the Board of Presidents, it is the obligation of each college to see that the requirements are met. Each graduate should complete three hours in Introduction to Teaching (Place and Purpose). Educational Psychology after completing General Psychology—three semester hours, and six hours of student teaching, and six hours of appropriate education. In addition to these provisions American Government and Visual Education shall be given in each curriculum according to action of the Board of Presidents. Concerning the proposed regiialtions for Science, nothing official coiild be said because the action of the Board of Presidents on these had not been signed by the Superintendent of Public Instruction, The Deans were urged to read the minutes of the meeting of the Board of Presidents when they are released relative They were also urged to carefully read the curriculum to the revisions in Science, revisions in Health and Physical Education for the elementary and secondary fields. If approved, these provisions will become effective September 1942, and are compulsory for freshman this fall. It was thought that all curriculvim changes should be put into effect as quickly as possible to avoid duplicating programs. The Deans were cautioned not to confuse the term ""general science" in the proposed revision with the certification term "science," The Discussion then turned to values in t erms of semester hours for old normal school courses given prior to 1920 when credit was not attached to courses. The credit should be determined by the length of time spent in the class In all cases the total amount of credit given should in t.erms of class hours. approximate one semester hour for each week in attendance. It was agreed that the credit given shoiild be in terms of competency and the remaining credits required should be in terms of deficiencies. A committee five years ago prepared some suggestions for the evaluation of credentials toward college graduation which the Deans agreed had been valuable but is now out of date. The Deans felt that this information should be brought up to date and, therefore. Dr. Kriner appointed the following committee to revise the "Evaluation Report." Dean Menhennett of West 3. -4- Chester, Dean Naegle of East Stroudsburg, and Desn Wrignt of Shippensburg were asked to help Dean McClelland of Kutztown to revise the old report, bringing it up to date. Where evaluations are made for students who are not graduates of an approved four-year high school, all credentials should be submitted to the office of Teacher Education and Certification on official transcripts. These credits are arranged for the Office of Pre-Professional Credentials to check for the high echooi equivalent certificate and the report is sent by the Office of Teacher Education and Certification to the Dean who submitted the credentiel-s. The variation and uniformity in credit value attached to approved 4.. courses was next discussed. It was agreed that the amount of credit attached to a course could only be in terms of the action of the Board of Teacher College Presidents or through the approval by the Superintendent of Public Instruction for a free elective. The variation in credit has boen brought about by change in curpiculums from time to time. Courses, however, shall be scheduled in keeping with the latest revisions of the Board of Teacher College Presidents. The requirements of Section 1607 of the School Laws of Pennsylvania 5. were then discussed. During the past few years the elementary degree curriculums offered in various teacher educational institutions hf;ve been reviewed. It is essential that the courses in elementary degree curriculums cover the subjects required in the elementary schools under Section 1607 of the School Laws of Pennsylvania. It was agreed that the Deans have an obligation to make sure that this material is being included in the approved elementary curriculuci. DEFENSE PROJECTS At this point Doctor Klonower asked the Deans to see that the report on defense projects sent to their colleges recently would be returned to the Office of Teacher Education and Certification by the following Monday. He also urged the Deans to read carefully Section 2002.1 of the School Laws of Pennsylvania. At this time he introduced Dr. George Franklin Stover who was recently appointed as consultant to War-time Education Committees. Dr. Stover sought the advice of the Deans in the construction of a letter to be sent out to Superintendents and Directors of Summer Sessions, concerning the preparation of teachers for aviation as offered in secondary schools. The next item on the docket was centered aroimd the testing program. It was the opinion of the group that the testing program could be of little value to an institution unless the Dean was familiar with the program -nd was instrumental in its use. It was felt that the testing program must be so organized that the Dean can through this improve the product of the teacher college. The implementing of the testing program is a task for the Dean. 6. C. OfiGANIZATION AND ADMINISTRATION 1. In meeting the increased demand for transcripts there are several possibilities. California State Teachers College is planning the use of blueprints and Bloomsburg State Teachers College is tentatively planning the use of photostatic copies. The Deans felt that the essential factor in transcripts was accuracy, not only accuracy in copying but accuracy in interpretation. 2. In submitting and filling out application blanks, the Dean's signature should be on the front of the sheet. It is essential that a notation is made on the transcript to the effect that the student has been graduated from a four- -5- year school giving its location, and that a statement indicates that the original copy of tne high school credits is on file in the college office. In subinittinK the transcripts for a certificate in trie secondary field tne new bl .nk provides for the listed separately. If, however, the transcripts are submitted teaching fields to on the Approved Education Cert ficate, the field of concentration should ba set asids separately as elective fields and tirie core subjects in the sasae fields numbered according to the field of concentr,.tion. It was found that some institutions have the core subjects in the secondary field mimeographed. ^Vhere this is the case errors in certification would be averted if a (1) would be placed in front of all core subjects which may be used in the first field of concentration, and a (2) in front of those core subjects which could be used in the second field of concentration. In other words, if English is the first field of concentration the various electives in English would appear together below the mimeographed core curriculum and a (1) should appear before the two freshman English courses and the sophomore Literature courses, as well as before Fundamentals of Speech. It appeared that the acceler^ited program was causing little difficulty It was agreed that the coming year will no to date at the various institutions. new problems because of the ne^i entrants. doubt give rise to 3. The practice of rotating courses for the regular and part-time classes 4.. It is the concensus of opinion that the problem is rather uniformly followed. could be solved by each Dean keeping a record of the student's peculiar and exceptional needs for several years in advance. The schedule could be set up in a way that a rotation of courses would meet the accumulated demands. The Deans felt that the proper use of their catalogues was a definite 5. help in guiding the students in meeting the various requirements set up by the State and the individual institutions. A specially prepared data sheet which gives the answers to the many questions asked by the different students has been found to be very helpful. This mimeographed sheet can be prepared easily without must cost and can be revised often. These sheets can be made useful for the students enrolled and for the public which is continually asking questions about certain phases of college administration and policy. Dr. North felt that it might be quite advantageous for the Deans to consult the offerings in the Post-Sessions and oUier sessions as sent to each Dean from the other colleges. At this point each Dean was thanked for his dontribution to the program of the day and for his cooperation throughout the year.

HJBLIC INSTRUCTION TEACHER EDUCATION AND CERTIFI CATION Harrlsburg August 4, 1942 To Covmty and Dlatrlot Superintendents: The attached tables present data with reference to the "Profess! ooal Status of Teachers in the Public Schools of the Commonwealth aa of November 1, 1941''* niesa tables have bean developed from information submitted to the Department of Public Instruction on the Applications for Appropriations. This particular study comes at the end of a twenty-two year period since it has been the custom to refer to the year 1920-21 as the beginning of the Teacher Education program follov7lng the adoption of the certification regiilations at that time. Both the certification regulations and the Teacher -Education prof:ram have been in a state of continuous growth and deTSlopoent during the two decades. The results of the effectiveness of the program are indicated in the improved professional status of teachers In all school districts of the Ooninonwealtll* During the past twenty-two years, steady gains have been made in every school district of the State in the matter of providing the boys and girls in the public schools with teachers who have completed four years of post secondary education for teaching. Tb9 record indicates that 51.6 par cent of all the teachers employed in the Commonwealth are graduates of approved Institutions of hl^er learning and that these teachers hove oonpleted an approved four year curriculum leading to a baccalaureate degree. Since approximately 100.0 per cent of the 62,423 teachers now employed In the public schools have completed two years or more of post secondary education, attention le no longer directed to these figures. Most school districts have accepted the i^e&eral standard for teacher education in the elementary field as four years of post secondary education. Attention is called to the fact that in 1920-21 only 70.5 per cent of the teaching force had standard certificates representing two years of post secondary education as coT-pared with approximately 100.0 per cent for the school year 1941-42. A large percentage of the number of teachers irtio have leas than four years of post secondary education are continuing their education in institutions of higher learning* It is only a matter of time when most of the teachers in this group will have completed the more extended education and thus further increase the percentage of college graduates In the public schools. The tables indicate the percentage of teachers who have completed four years of college education in 1920-21 as compared with the number in 1941-42. The data shows that substantial progress has been made by all the school districts during the past twenty-two years in the employment in the public schools of the Commonwealth of teachers who have completed four years of college education. From the school year 1920-21 to the school year 1941-42, a period of twenty-tv/o years, there has bean a gain of 43.9 per cent in the number of teachers who have had the more extended education. For the year 1941-42, of the 62,423 teachers, a total of 51.6 per cent are college graduates as compared with 7,7 per cent in 1920-21. The substantial and consistent increase In the number of teachers with more extended education is indicated by the figures for the State as a whole \mder "Grand Total". In first class school districts, 47.1 per cent are collere graduates; in second class school districts, 58.0 per cert of the teachers are college graduates; in third class school districts, 59.7 per cenc of the teachers are college c^raduates; and in fourth class school districts and those third class school districts under the supervision of the county superintendent, 47.7 per cent are college rraduates. This latter figure is particularly interesting for it means that there has been a consistent and steady increase In the number of college graduates in the rural areas and that of the 29,602 teachers supervised by county superintendents, aijproxlmately 50.0 per cent, (47,7 per cent), of thao are college graduates. In view of the present emergency situation, these firurss are encouraging. They present a satisfactory T)lcture of the substantial improvement of the teaching service in the public schools of the Commonwealth.

Knowledge of the various elements of culture is essential for good teaching but in addition there must be a complete understanding of current affairs, 5, , General Interpretations 1. Definite conclusions should be drawn only after the results of several tests are available and only after all factors affecting the scores have been determined. The results of a single test are an inadequate base from which to draw definite conclusions. 2« Results sho\ild be interpreted only with a knowledge of the student's ability, preparation, cultural background, and his educational experiences. 3. National norms represent the average achievement of all students and should not necessarily be onsidered as the standard to be It is neither desirable nor practically sought by all students. possible to have all students above the national or state median or mean. 4. The spread of the middle 50^ as well as the middle two-thirds is significant in adapting methods of instruction and materials. The wider the spread the more heterogeneous the group and the more need for diversified methods and materials. A narrow spread may indicate either a relatively homogeneous group through selection or the result of limited materials and methods used with a heterogeneous group which failed to reach the upper and lower levels. 5. Reading ability may affect the scores on all other tests and should be considered in evaluating the scores received on all other tests. 6. Basically, students in teachers colleges probably differ little from students in other colleges in mental ability but appear to have lower reading achievement and less adequate general backgrounds. Page 6 7, Ill Individual performance in a standard intelligence test is probably the best single criterion to determine validity of achievement in a single subject field. High intelligence scores would be difficult to reconcile with low achievement scores and would indicate either a low validity of the achievement test or a need for improvement in instruction. Implications of the Testing Program . A. On Admissions ! Shortages found from an analysis of the tests should be studied with regard to their bearing on policies and standards of entrance or admission requirements. Provisions for remedial measures might thus be attacked early in the student's college career. B, 2. The relationship between the student's cultural background, or lack of it, as determined by personal interviews and the results obtained on the General Culture Test should provide a better means of selection. 3. Results of all the tests can profitably be utilized for conferences with high school principals in schools from which students are enlisted and programs strengthened before the students reach the time of graduation from the secondary schools. On Curriculum Construction, Revision and Enrichment 1, Test results should be studied with respect to their bearing on schedule making, curriculum revision and progrjun making. 2« The results of the tests may be used as a point of departure for a study of the curriculum, to determine in what areas of escperience there are overlappings and in what areas there are shortThis would necessitate the study of the materials incluages. ded in each of the several courses pursued noting the correlation between certain specific omissions as indicated by the tests. 3. Results for each college should be analyzed by d^artments showing relative strengths and weaknesses in various fields within Such an analysis may lead to curriculum adeach department. justments within courses or to the addition or deletion of courses. 4. If results in a given field are low attempts should be made to Improve the situation by a study of possible new procedures or organization of materials. 5. A study of the tests should be made by the instructors in each field to determine whether or not the qualities which they measure are valid for the profession of teaching. A prerequisite to such an analysis should be the determination of the objectives of teacher education and the specific objectives within each field. Page 7 C, D, On Personnel Practices 1. For use In individual, interviews with students, profile charts should he prepared for each student on forms provided hy the Cooperative Test Service. Individuals responsible for conducting such interviews will likely vary depending upon the type of administrative organization Such interviews should provide for an tinderavailable. standing of the test results by the students and for plans for remedial measures. 2. In some instances it may prove feasible to present the test results to the sophomore class as a whole, allowing each student to construct his own profile chart and discuss the interrelation and Implications of the various tests with Such a group conference should then be followed the group. by individual conferences. 3. Advisers should make use of the test results In both the academic and social and emotional counselling of students. Such a plan presupposes an xinderstanding of the counsellors Necof the underlying principles of the testing program. essary preparatory instruction will depend upon the system of advisorships which is utilized in each individual institution. 4. There appears to be some evidence that the inclusion of the test scores on the student's grade sheet is desirable. 5. There is conflicting opinion whether or not college, state and national norms should be made abailable to students in evaluating the results of the test scores. Majority opinion seems to favor the use of at least the college and state norms in student counselling. 6. Test results should be made available to the Placement Office for utilization in professional counselling, Instructional Procedures 1. Test results may be used as motivating factors in areas in which weaknesses are noted. Conversely, some areas may show evidence of being over taught and instructional procedures may be modified accordingly. 2. An analysis of the resxilts should be made in terms of fields English, science, mathematics, social studies, fine arts and and a program of rehabilitation instituted where the like needed. most — — 3. Test results point to the necessity for more emphasis in the Instructors should Teachers Colleges on contemporary affairs. A Page 8 encouraged to keep themselves and their students informed of current problems. An analysis of the Contemporary Affairs Test may have implications in the planning of the extra-curricular and assemble programs at the various colleges, emphasis "being placed on those fields in whcih the greatest weaknesses are apparent . "be 4. Librarians should be encouraged to review the test results for possible clues for the selection of nev- library materials and the appropriate use of those now available. 5. Care should be taken that courses do not come to be taught for the tests themselves; that they should be considered but an evslTiation of the effectiveness of the teaching and not ends in themselves. Limitations of the Testing Program • A. B, Lack of Uniformity in Administration 1. There appeared to be considerable lack of uniformity in the size fo the groups tested and the conditions under which the tests were administered. Groups varies from 30 to more than 100 and tests were given in types of rooms varying from an ordinary classroom to an auditorium. 2. The time for administering the tests varied widely. In some institutions tests were given in the early morning and in others late in the afternoon. No uniformity was noted in the day of the week on which such tests were administered. In some institutions students were excused from classes during the test day and in others tests were given at the conclusion of the regular class periods. 3. Little uniformity was noted in orienting students to the testing In some institutions the procedures and purposes of the program. tests were discussed at a preliminary meeting, in others an assembly program was devoted to a discussion of the program and in others motivation was affected by the suggestion that test results would be used in evaluating student success, while in other institutions no preliminary meetings were held. 4. No uniformity was had in the number of tests administered in a sinIn some institutions only one test a day was administered, gle d.sy» and in others all three tests were administered in one day. 5. There was some evidence of a lack of uniformity in the administration of the tests themselves. Limiting Factors 1. Since the items included in the tests have not been measured against the objectives set forth for the various insitutions of teacher education, results should be accepted with caution until such a validity has been determined. Page 9 2. Tests were constructed for "both teachers colleges and liberal Since the tests were concerned chiefly with arts colleges. measures of general education and since the latter type of institution confines its study almost exclusively to this field, norms may be expected to favor this type of institution. Norms determined by scores received exclusively by teachers colleges would appear to be more reliable for our purposes. C, Use of Test Results 1. It should be the responsibility of the President of the college to determine specifically how the results should be used in each institution. 2. No publicity shall be given the results of these tests beyond the immediate staff of the institution. Suggestions for the 1942-43 Testing Program , A. Standard Procedures for Administration 1, B. 2, Directions printed in each test should be followed exactly, 3, It is generally agreed that tests should be given in all the colleges in the mornings on Monday, Wednesday, and either Friday or Saturday and that all students taking examinations be excused from classes during the testing days. Standard Procedures for Scoring 1. C. Standard procedures for the administration should provide for Tiniformity in such aspects of the program as: Month and week of testing a. Time of day b. Order in which tests should be given c. Preliminary instructions for orientation of students d. Exemption from attendance at classes on test days e. Consistency of administrators f. Size of groups to be tested at one sitting g. h. Provisions for monitors Procedures for collecting and distributing materials i.

Report of the^ Athletic Committee Doctor Swope, Chainnan of the Athletic ComrrittBB, asked that all requests for interpretations or changes be presented to him in writing by the Presidents of the colleges concerned. He stated that a request had been received for a change in the regulation governing transfer students but, in the light of the Committee's study, it was decided that this regulation should not be changed. The attention of the Board was also called to the last edition of the Athletic Regulations appearing on page 1515 of the Proceedings of the Meetings of the Board of Presidents, State Teachers Colleges, May, 1941, On motion of Doctor Steele, seconded by Doctor Noonan, it was voted that the report of the Athletic Committee be adopted, B. Educational Conferences during the War Pe riod The question of postponing educational conferences and other meetings during the war period was discussed. Due to transportation difficulties many meetings have been canceled. However, in the lip'ht of the important part education plays in the war effort and because of the educational contacts necessary betv een school principals and colleges and universities during these critical tim.es, it was decided not to abandon such meetings. The Chairman of the ^oard appointed a committee to discuss and study specifically the question of holding local area conferences to advance thd war effort through educational activities. C . Students Financed by Vocational Rehabilitation B oar d The question was raised as to the late registration fee in connection with students financed by tbe Vocational Rehabilitation Roard since no paym.ents may be charged in advance. It was pointed out that a student may be excused from paying a late registration fee at the discretion of the President and since the Vocational Rehabilitation Board has a signed contract with the college before a student so financed enters the college, the fees will eventually be paid.

Attention was specifically called to the importance of sending from each institution a complete list of names of all instructors for vhom approval for extra compensation will be requested to the Superintendent of Public Instruction. Specific approval by the "Executive Poard must be secured in advance of the employment period. Under date of November 18, 1942 the following letter was addressed to each President emphasizing the importance of submitting the lists for pre-approval: To the Presidents of the State Teachers Colleges: So that the request may be prepared far in advarce for the (xovemor' s approval, it will be necessary to make new application requesting permission to ^rant extra compensation payments for defense projects to members of the instructional staff. It vill be necessary to make new applications effective January 1, 1943. The suggestion is m.ade this far in advarce so that you may have an opportunity to organize whatever program.s you deem advisable. You will recall that all such extra-com.pensat ion payments must be preapproved by the Governor before the work is actually undertaken. Very sincerely yours Henry Klonower Director, Teacher Education and Certification I E.

Agents of the Secret Service will make themselves available for illustrated lectures at the several institutions. Those Presidents interested should contact the Agency directly. F. Science as a_ Major and Minor Field of Concent ration The question was raised as to whether a student could take all his and his electives in the field of science. It was pointed out that a student could legally do this but for purposes of placement, this would be unwise. It should be the duty of the advisory official to guide students to broader fields of concentration for placement purposes, major vjork G. Christmas Vacation 'Question was raised as to whether, in view of the difficulties of transportation due to the war situation, any change should be made in the Christmas schedule of the State Teachers Colleges. no new action was necessary, H.

I. Summer Session Committee Report Doctor Chandler, Chairman of the Summer Session Committee, presented an informal report. He stated that the Committee had studied the matter of combined summer sessions but in view of the fact that several of the institutions were presenting various types of defense projects, it would be unsatisfactory to combine summer sessions at this time. The Committee recommended that no action be taken by the Board at this time. J, Circular on Teacher Recruitment Doctor Rovi'land stated that he, in collaboration with Doctor Ellis and Dean Trabue had prepared a circular on teacher recruitment. In view of the value of this type of publication in the present critical times, he , -1592- I I , ) recommended that the circular be printed by the Department as a Department bulletin. The matter is being referred to the proper committee for study and report K. Publications , Reports and Programs During the meeting Doctor Klonover called the attention of the Board to several publications, reports, and programs of* timely interest. Among these vere the Second Annual Citizenship Day held at the State Teachers College at Shippensburg November 11, 1942; a publication of the New York State Department of Education entitled "Criteria for Teacher Education"; a mimeographed form of the set-up of a defense program, in one of the State Teachers Colleges; the returns of a study made by the Department on the supply and demand situation in Pennsylvania; and the returns with reference to the inclusion of a course in the history of the United States and Pennsylvania in the requirements for the provisional or perm.anent college certificate. , IV, Charts A.

This policy is retroactive to the beginning of the school year 1942-43, STUDENTS INDUCTED INTO THE AmtED FORCES OF THE UNITED STATES-^ A student inducted into any branch of the armed forces of the United States prior to graduation from a secondary school may be graduated as follows: I. i , 1 I 1- The discontinuance from school shall be by virtue of induction into the armed forces either by enlistment or through operation of the Selective Service Act, I ! 2- The student at the time of induction shall be regularly enrolled in the secondary school from which he will be graduated, and his transfer from school to service shall be immediate. 3-The student at the time of induction shall have completed at least all but the last half year of a standard secondary school course, and shall be in such standing that if he were to complete the final half year of work he could be graduated under the usual rules and regulations pertaining to graduation, 4- The school record of the student shall designate specifically the work actually done in school to the date of induction; and, in addition, shall specify the date of induction and the service entered, A short period of absence from school for military service may be administered according to the usual local rules and regulations for short or temporary absence from school for other causes, i ' j i 1 | I I 2- II. STUDEOTS ENTERING PROFESSIONAL SCHOOLS AND OTHER INSTITUTIONS OF HIGHER EDUCATION To the extent to which the Department of Public Instruction if authorized by law to determine the equivalent of four years of secondary school preparation for admission to professional schools and other Institutions of higher education, or for admission to examination for licensure or registration in any profession, the equivalent of secondary school graduation will be met by fulfilling the following requirements: — 1- Successful completion of all but the last half year of a standary secondary school course, 2-Recomraendation by the responsi«ble school officials, including the faculty, to the professional school or other institution of higher education, 3-Acceptance by the professional school or other institution of higher education, 4- Succes8ful completion of not less than one year of worV in the professional school or other institution of higher education and certification of this fact to the secondary school last attended, III. ADDITIONAL METHODS OF SATISFYING REQUIREMENTS FOR SECONDARY SCHOOL GRADUATION Secondary school credit may also be secured as followst — 1-Credit secured in a regularly organized school or class approved for secondary education by the Department of Public Instruction. 2- Credit secured through examinations periodically conducted by the Department of Public Instruction. 3- Credit secured through the eval-uation of courses officially provided for inductees. Under any of the foregoing conditions the school record of each student should designate specifically the work which has been completed and each such student, when eligible, shall be given a certificate showing that he has attained graduation status. Nothing included in this statement of policy is intended to ignore the fact that it is always possible for talented students to complete the regular and entire program of secondary education in less than the normal number of semesters* Every secondary school student planning to enter college is urged to communicate immediately with the college selected in order to learn the specific requirements for admission* Sincerely yours Francis B, Haas St^^erintendent of Public Instruction CommorMealth of Pennsylvania BTSTRUCTION TEACHER EDUCATION and CERTIFICATION Harrisburg DEPARTIVIEOT OF FUPLIC MEETING OF BOARD OF FRESIDEifPS, STATE TEACHERS COLLB'^ES Friday, March 19, 1943 DOCKET I, II o III.

Steele, Chairmian Q. A. '7. On motion of Doctor Steele, seconded by Doctor Van Houten, the Board voted to approve the report of the Curricular and Credentials Committee, REPORT OF THE CURRiaTAR AMD CREDENTIALS COWT'ITTEE March 19, 1943 Rej American Council on Education Program for Credit for Military Experience A pamphlet entitled "Sound Educational Credit for Military Experience - A Recommended Program" was issued in February 1943, by the American Council on Education and recently distributed. The Committee recommends a careful study of this Joint effort of the American Council on Education and the sub-committee on Education of the Joint Army and Navy Committee on ''/elf are and Recreation to avoid "the evils of unsound blanke t ac.r 30.ita-tions which followed the last war" and to provide for the use of cclleg.es and universities a far more discriminating evaluation of the eda.- at :oaoi benefits of military service than was possible at the close of ohe Ir.st wai. -1604- Most of the regional accrediting agencies, and a number of nationa associations have approved the plan. The American Council on Education suggests the follo-ving course of action for .American schools and colleges: Schools and colleges individually and through representative regional and other associations should go publicly on record as soon as possible (if they have not already done so): 1, a. b. As opposinrr indiscriminate blanket credit for military experiences; and As approvinpr the tentative program and procedures for discriminating recognition and measurement of educational competence acquired through military experience, as outlined in this pamphlet. It cannot be emphasized too strongly that there is nothing "automatic"' about this program. It vdll become effective only if and xvhen schools and colleges take individual and collective action to make it effective. Copies of such individual or collective action should be forwarded, as soon as adopted, to the American Council on Education, 744 Jackson Place, "rashin^Tton, D, C, \-rhere a complete record and file v/ill be centrally maintained for such use as may be necessary in coping vrith the problem on a national level, 2, Schools and colleges should signify their willingness to 3, experiment -"ith the procedures herein proposed in connection with the admission and readmission of returning service men (noxv chiefly casuality cases) so that necessary modifications and adjustments may be made and techniques perfected looking toward the day of m.ass demobilization and its vast problems, a. In cases where the returning service man applies directly to an institution for admission rather than through the United States Armed 'R'orces Institute, the institution is requested to ask the Institute to examine the candidate and report on him in the same manner as though he had applied originally through the Institute, Institutions should inform students and the parents of students vAio are leaving? to enter m^ilitary service, not only of the opportunities for continuing education offered throu(?h the Institute, but also of the plans to measure and grant credit for any increased educational competence, however acquired during service, upon the student* s return to school or college, and thus preserve an educational continuity v/hich might otherwise be lost, 4, Institutions should make preparations to set up appropriate 5, procedures and train personnel to cope with special adjustment problems of a physical, social or psychological nature which are likely to arise in connection xvith the return of service m.en to educational life. Although these are not, strictly speaking, a part of accreditation, they are phases of the wider problem of postwar educational read justm.ent 7;hich loom^s increasingly larger vrlth every passing day. Education cannot prepare too soon to meet this problem in all its aspects. -16C5- The committee believes that it is desirable for the teachers colleges to approve the plan and participate in it. It is recommended, however, that formal action be deferred until the next meeting of the Board to permit all m.embers of the Poard to study the pro.cram. Respectfully submitted 0. A. ^'f, Rohrbach Albert Lindsay Rowland Charles S. Swope L. H. van Houten Robert M. Steele, Chairman B, Easter Vacation Doctor Uhler raised the question as to ivhether it would be possible, in view of growing shortages in transportaion, food, et cetera, to shorten the Easter vacation for the present school year and thus have an earlier Commencem.ent It was decided that no change could be made in the calendar for the present year because catalogues have been printed. On motion of Doctor Uhler, seconded by Doctor Steele, the Board voted that the question of modifying the calendar for 1944 xvith respect to vacations be studied by the Calendar Committee and a subsequent report be made to the Board, Doctor Rbhrbach urged the m.em.bers of the "^oard to send him their suggestions as soon as possible to enable his committee to prepare the report, . C , Allowing Stud ents in Cood Standing to Than Eighty Hours per Month "fork More Because the problem of competing with outside industries and because of the difficulties of maintaining sufficient student help in college dining rooms, et cetera, it was m.oved by Doctor Parsons and seconded by Doctor Tanger that for the duration students in fjood standing in the State Teachers Colleges be permitted to work such number of hours as, in the judgment of the President, seems expedient. On miOtion of Doctor Noonan, seconded by Doctor Tanger and Doctor Van Houten, the ori'='inal m.otion ivas amended to the effect that a ceiling of twenty-five (25) hours per xveek should be set for student employment. On motion of Doctor Parsons, seconded by Doctor Tanger, the amended motion was approved by the Board, In line with the above motion. Doctor Swope moved that the regulation now in effect concerning the em.ployment of athletes for no more than txventy hours a week be waived for the duration and that the period of employment for all students be the same.

Van Houten Robert M, Steele, Chairman On motion of Doctor Steele, seconded by Doctor Pratt and Doctor Van Houten, the Board voted that the report of the C\irricular and Credentials Committee regarding the United States Armed Forces Institute be approved, REPORT OF THE a^ffilCULAR AMD CREDEOTIALS COm/IITTEE May 21, 1943 Re: Changes in Curriculums to include History of the United States and Pennsylvania as required by regulations for certification issued by the State Council of Education. Doctor Steele, Chairman of the Curricular and Credentials Committee, distributed a preliminary report. He asked that the m.embers of the Board give careful consideration to all the implications of the proposed changes and that the members of the college faculties be given an opportunity to study the report. He requested that all suggestions end comments regarding the report be sent to him at least a week before the next meeting of the Board so that the Committee will have time to work out a final report to present at he July meeting of the Board •1512- B, Report of the Budget Committee Doctor Noonan, Chairman of the Budget Committee, stated that the Committee had no further report to make on the salary situation for Deans of Instruction.

McGlure and the Committee, Board that the matter should be held in abeyance until after the meeting of the Deans of Instruction in July, C. Rex)ort of the Calendar Committee Mr, Andruss raised the question of rearranging the calendar in order to permit the colleges to maintain the Navy-V-12 Program, which provides for the training of young men at certain colleges for one, U70 or three years. The Navy Program fits into the regular college program in the matter of courses, et cetera, but it is arranged on a tri-semester basis. The Calendar Committee was asked to "jork out some sgtisfactory arrangement by ;i/hich individual colleges could combine their regular college schedule with the Navy Program, The Chairman of the Calendar Committee agreed to work out a plsn with Mr, Andruss which would suit the needs of his institution and which would serve as the basis for schedules for other institutions should they adopt the Navy Program at any time.

The success of the Testing Program is due in a large part to their cooperation and effort. ^* Publicity and Service Areas For purposes of clarif icet ion, the Chairman of the Board stated that there has been no change in the policy regarding service areas. Previous action of the Board of Presidents established certain definite service area limitations for regular college offerings and set up mutually agreeable service areas for special fields. Since there has been no change in this policy, the policy must be adhered to by all the institutions, D. Reprints of Core Material Doctor Steele pointed out the advisability of having reprints prepared of certain core material dealing with curriculums. This material now eppears in each catalogue. If reprints were made, they could be used es work sheets with students. Since the type is set, additional copies could be run off at minimum cost. This matter wss referred to a special committee consisting of Doctor Steele as Chairman, Doctor Parsons and Doctor Uhler with the underst ending that they would study the situation and report to the Bosrd at the next meeting, E.

F. Cumulative Report of Enrolments Mr, Andruss raised the question as to the possibility of preparing an additional enrolment report to be compiled once a year after the year is complete shoiving "Class I-A Students'*, or those students on the campus engaged in war activities. At the present tim.e there is no enrolment showing these figures on a comparable basis with the other enrolment charts. The Chairman of the Bosrd stated that he would appoint a special corrmittee to study this matter and to make e report at the next meeting of the Board, -1614 a G, Credit St atu3 of Students Leaving College for Farms Doctor Chandler raised the question as to whether any provision would be made in the case of students who are forced to leave college before the completion of their work in order to go on farms.

The matter was referred to the Curricular and Credentials Comnittee for study and e report at the next meeting of the Board, H.

I Commonwealth of Pennsylvania DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC INSTRUCTION Harrisburg May 5, 19 A3 Exhibit "C" To Presidents of Colleges and Universities, County and District Superintendents, Supervising and High School Principals: j j i The data which we have received from county and district superintendents and from colleges indicate that the supply of teachers vsill not meet the demand for teachers this September. This will be due in part to wartime ctivities and the entrance of large numbersof teachers into the military service. The situation is accentuated by the fact that the supply from which students have been recruited is diminishing. There are fewer senior high school students, practically no young men, entering teacher educati n institutions or colleges preparing teachers. , | ^ j I A bulletin for recruiting purposes has been published by the Department of Public Instruction under the cooperative sponsorship of the Pennsylvania V?artime Committee on Teacher Education, the Association of College Presidents of Pennsylvania, and the Board oi Teachers College Presidents. A supply of Bulletin No. 160 will be mailed under separate cover to Presidents of colleges and universities and to high school principals, arid one copy of the bulletin will be forwarded to each county and district superintendent and supervising principal for his information. The shortage of teachers will become more acute in the next few years. To meet this situation, the suggestion is made that someone from your staff, during the next two weeks, meet with your student bodyj or at least the junior and senior classes, and point out to the students the many typesof opportunities available in the teaching service. Bulletin No. 160, "Enlist in the Forces of Education", contains material that Viill be helpful in presenting the subject "Teaching as a Career" to the student body. Through this cooperative effort young men and women of character and competence may be guided to the teaching profession and thus a serious shortage of properly ualiiied teachers in the next few years may be avoided. i ^ ( | i j I Very sincerely yours Henry Klonower Director, Teacher Education and Certification Exhibit »'D" COMMONWEALTH OF PENNSYLVANIA STATE TEACHERS COLLEGES May 14, 1943 A Report of the National College Sophomore Testing Program TESTING COMMITTEE: Harvey A, Andruss John A, Entz Q.A.W, Rohrbach Charles S, Swope Willis E, Pratt, Chairman A Report of the National Sophomore Testing Program Administered in the State Teachers Colleges of Pennsylvania National Sophomore Testing Program I. A. 1, 2* B, ! Nature of the Testing Program In cooTDeration with other colleges and universities throughout the nation, the fourteen teachers colleges of Pennsylvania administered the National College Sophomore Tests published by the Cooperative Test Service under the direction of the Testing Committee of the Board of Presidents. Tests administered included the Cooperative English Test containing sub-tests on Mechanics of Expression, Effectiveness of Expression, and Reading Comprehension; the Cooperative General Culture Test containing sub-tests in current social problems, history, literature, fine arts, science and mathematics; and the Contemporary Affairs Test including political events, social and economic events, science and medicine, literature, fine arts and amusements* Purposes of the Tests The general purpose of the tests is to provide colleges means of evaluating knowledges, abilities and interests which are representative of the student's academic and cultural backgrounds. 2* Tests are given at the end of the Sophomore year since this marks the main period of the student's general education in most colleges and since subsequent study is likely to involve In the Teachers some degree of subject-matter specialization. Colleges of Pennsylvania, considerable specialization is introduced during the Freshman and Sophomore years in some curricula and hence less time is devoted to those educational experiences considered to be "general", 3, Values which may be gained through this testing program include (l) a measurement of the individual student's general educa/tional achievement, (2) providing information for the student's self-appraisal of his interests, sqotitudes, and abilities with a view toward guiding him in planning subsequent endeavors and enhancing his personal satisfaction and worth, and (3) providing information which will assist the college in making an institutional self -appraisal and thus assist it in increasing its effectiveness. C, 1, Administration and Scoring of the Tests Tests were administered in the several Teachers Colleges on March 23, 24, and 26, 1943. 2, The administration and scoring of the tests was directed by the following representatives of the following Institutions: C, F, Becker, Clarion; S. M. Neagley, California; Ralph S, Beard, Indiana; 0. C. Wrigley, Slippery Rock; M. S. Hiskey, Edinboro; Jonas T, May, East Stroudshurg; Edna S. Botdorf, Lock Haven; Clark R, McClelland, Kutztown; Earl F. Sykes, West Chester; Earl Wright, Shlppenshurg; Dean Butcher, Mlllersvllle; John J. Fisher, Bloomshurg; James C, Williamson, Cheyney; and James G, Morgan, Mansfield, 3* Tests were scored and tabulated by the individual institutloria and the results forwarded to the Department of Public Instruction. Tests were machine- scored with the able assistance of Dean Dutcher, Mlllersville, John J. Fisher, Blnomsburg and Tabulated scores were prepared Raymond Brunner, Shlppensburg. by each institution and forwarded to the Testing Committee for the preparation of results. 4# A meeting of representatives of all the teachers colleges was held at the Department of Public Instruction on April 30, 1943 for the discussion of the Preliminary Report* Results of the Tests II, A, ! 2. Measures Used Since national norms are provided by the Cooperative Test Bureau In terms of percentiles, the median, Q,^, Q^* range and the number of cases have been given for each of the tests administered, English, General Culture and Contemporary Affairs, for each of the several curricula as well as for students in all curricula, In each of the Tables presented the state and national norms are indicated to provide comparisons by curricula and col- leges. 3» B, 1# Median scores were calculated by the Garrett Method, (1926) Test Data Table I offers a comparison of results obtained by students In various curricula In all of the teswihers colleges In each of the three tests administered. 2, Table II sets forth the scores obtained by students in all curricula in each of the fourteen state teachers colleges. Since the types of curricula offered vary from one Institution to another this factor may materially affect the results obtai ned. 3, Perhaps a better comparison of the results obtained in each institution may be found in Table III and IV in which scores -2 9X10 X' .II are given for each college for students enrolled in the elemen— Since most of the work comtary and seci^ndary departments. pleted during the first two years in these departments is similar in all institutions resiilts in these fields can best he compared. However, it should be recognized that these results cannot be interpreted as a measure of the effectiveness of institutions but reflect also student capacity, bacirground, and other factors for which no comparative data are available. These two depertments can best be compared with the national norms since a larger percentage of the coxirses of study provided experiences in the more general fields. 4, In Tables V to IX inclusive are given median scores obtained by students in Business, Health, Homemaking, Music and Art Curricula, No data are included for the Library and Industrial Arts curricula since distributions were filed by only two schools in each case and since the number of students enrolled is small, 5« Table X provides tentative norms supplied by the Cooperative Test Service for sub-tests and for the totals of each of the three tests administered. This may be used in interpreting individual scores made by pupils on individual tests. A final statement of norms may be obtained from the Cooperative Test Service direct at the later date. 6, After the heading of each of tables I to IX inclusive will be found in parentheses the tentative national median score based on results obtained by 4497 students in 77 colleges. -3- TABLE 1 - A COKIPARISOK OF SC0R5:S OBTAINED BY STUr^VNTS IN SSV^^RAL CUHHICULA IK STATii; TSA0H3RS COLLEGES OF PEITOSYT.VANIA IN ENGLISH, GENERAL CTOTURE AND CONTET/PORARY AFFAIRS English (59) 1.

Students in the Home Economics, Health and Industrial Arts curricula were found to be below the average for the state. Only one of the fourteen colleges had a median score above the national norm. General Culture Tests 1, 2, 3, 4, The median score for all students was fo\ind to be 127,5 as compared with a national norm median of 144, Students enrolled in the Library and Secondary curricula were found to be above the national norm and others below, Students In the Elementary, Home Economics, Health and Business curricula were found to be below the average for the state, Only one of the fourteen colleges had a median score above the national norm. Contemporary Affairs Tests C, 1, 2, 3« 4, The median score for all students was foxind to be 67, as conpared with a national norm of 76, Students enrolled in the Secondary and Library curricula were found to be above the national norm and others below, Students in the Music, Elementary, Health, Business and Home Economics curricula were found to be below the average for the state, Only one of the fourteen colleges had a median score above the national norm, General Interpretations D, 1, 2« 3, 4, 5, In general, students enrolled In the curricula in which the first two years are spent In e;eneral education compare favorable with national standards. Students enrolled in special ciirrlcula compare unfavorably with national standards, Results should be interpreted only with a knowledge of the student's ability, preparation, cultural background and his educational e^qjerience, National norms represent the average achievement of all students and should not necessarily be considered as the standard sought by all students, Reading ability may affect the scores on all other tests and should be considered in evaluating the scores received on all tests. 13- I Implications of Tests Hesnlts IV, On Admissions A* 1, Test results should be analyzed to determine possible improvement in the admissions program, 2, Secondary schools in the area may he advised of common weaknesses which are attributed to high school preparation, 3, A study of the correlation between success on the General Cxilture Test and the recommendations macle by the High School Principals should prove valuable. On 0\irriculum Construction. Revision and Enrichment B, 1. Significant differences in achievement of pupils in the various curricula would appear to warrent a studr of the adequacy of offerings in "general education" in the special fields. 2, Results for each college may be analyzed to determine apparent strengths and weaknesses in each department, On Personnel Practices C, 1, Parts of the English test devoted to reading should be utilized in interpreting needs of individual students. 2, A discussion of the test results with each individual should make him aware of his own needs. 3, Advisers should make use of the test results in academic, social and personal counselling of students, 4, Majority opinion seems to favor the inclusion of college and state norms in student counselling, On Instructional Procedures D, 1, Copies of tests should be distributed to Department Heads for checking validity of the test in stibject fields. 2, A remedial program, particularly in the field of reading, may Special classes for those deficient in English be utilized. expression may prove helpful, 3, Results continue to indicate a need for more emphasis in the Teachers Colleges on Cont emporary Affairs. Stressing contemporary affairs in all classes should make students better acquainted with current problems. -14- I Lifflitatlons of the Testing Program V, Limiting Factors A. 1, The validity of the Contemporary Affairs Test has been questioned by several of the test representatives, 2# Variability in curricula makes it difficult to compare achievement of the total gromi. The comparison by curricular groups appears to be more valid, 3, Results of the tests indicate that a change in proportion of men and women in the group will affect the scores disproportionately and should be recoi^ized in making comparisons, 4, Since these tests are concerned chiefly with measures of general education, norms may be expected to favor students enrolled in the Liberal Arts Colleges. 5, The present program presents little opportunity for making direct comparison from year to year. Suggestions for the 1943-44 Testing Program VI, Procedures for Administration A* 1# Procedures slmlliar to those utilized this year are suggested for the 1943-44 program except that the orientation period be eliminated, 2, Advice of the Cooperative Test Bureau should be obtained to determine what students should be included in the Sophomore Testing Program. Tests Suggested B« 1, Entrance Tests - for students in lower half of the high school graduating class shall be selected and administered at the discretion of each institution, 2, Fresliman Placement Tests sTiggested are as follows: a.
