VAN of Fact HOUTEN, President ~f:- ~-~ ~ '",". i!~ 10 0 -LIFE AT EDINBORO COLLEGE- All students coming to Edlnboro State Teachers College will find a new life here, npt onlJl scholastically, but socially as well. New opportunities and problems will present themselves, and since the student is liVing away from his home and family, he must learn to make Intelligent decisions and to take respbnsiblllty on his own shoulders. This doe!; not mean that when a st1Xdent comes to live on campus he is left suddenly alone with all the worries and complications of ~ new life, for the Dean of Women, the Dean of Men, and friendly faculty members and upperclassmen are always ready to help; a new student can always go to any of these people for advice. Lasting friendships will be built up here with both students and faculty. i Though studies are of course the first consideratlon of College students, there are many parties and dances and general good times, as well as a full athletic program, to give the students a well-rounded campus life. Offcampus student~ are urged to take part In all of the campus activities. Naturally there are rules and regulations, but they are easily followed when one remembers that they are set up for the purpose of making this new life interesting and happy as well as profitable for the students. When YOU have completed your four year~ of work here yOU will certainly have made this friendly College a real part of your life amd will be sorry to leave it. 1 i I ,.

HISTORY Full eighty years have gone by since Edlnboro was first chartered as a State Normal School. Eighty yearS" of growth and service to the communities lying about her. The beginnlngs of the college were laid In 1857 when a band of hardy Scotch,Irish farmers grouped together and founded a private academy at Edinboro by popular subscription, but; It was not until 1861 that it was chartered by the State as Pennslyvanla's second Normal School. A great forward stride was taken in 1914 when the Commonwealth ofJ;>ennsylvania pur~ chased Edinboro Normal Scii'()ol and made It the .p~operty of the State. Twelve years later, real~zmg the need of the schools of PennsylvanIa for better ed~cated teachers, the Commonwealt? .made Edmboro a T~acher~ College by orgamzmg a four-year currIculum leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Education. 12 13 ' .. Although designed prImarIly to serve t h e countIes of ErIe, Crawford, Mercer, Venango and Warren, Edinboro receIves and welcome students from every sectIon of thIs state and from other states. i I As a result of the recent buildIng program at Edinboro there are four new buildIngs, gymnasIum, traInIng and llemonstration school, power plant, and spacious auditorium. For these and the older buildings, the campus thIrty-eIght acres makes an appropriate settlng. Haven Hall, the women's dormitory, was built durIng the admInistratIon of John F. BIgler. Reeder, the men's dormItory, was built In 1907 and named In honor of one of the early donors of the school. Academy Hall, known recently as Music Hall, Is the oldest buildIng on the campus, beIng built about 1857. ~ormal I-Ial1 was built In 1851 and in 181)1 was considerably enlarged. Today It contaIns the a.dministrative offIces. the lIbrary, several class rooms, and the old audItorium. RecItation Hall, built early In the hIstory of the school, Is unIquely construccted; It still provIdes recitation room space. The New GymnasIum, wIth its excellent athletic facilities, now over. shadows the old gymnasium, which is outdated. Loveland Ha.ll Is named for the late Mr. Frank Loveland of Corry, who for many years was a trustee of the college; this bulldIng wag built in 1930 and houses the Art and Science departlrumts. ACADEMIC STANDARDS Grading System StandIngs Indicating--the quality 'Of work are: "A"--grade given to students whose quality of work Is clearly of an exceptional nature. "B"-grade given to students who do dIstlnctly superIor work. "C"-grade representing work of good quality. "D"-grade IndIcating unsatisfactory work. "'F"-grade IndIcating failure. Any course in whIch an "F" grade has been earned must be repeated. "X"-not a grade, but a mark IndIcating that the student for some justifiable cause has not been able to completE the requIred work wIthIn the time limit. "W"-withdrawal from course. The Dean's List TwIce a year, there Is pUblIshed The Dean's LIst a list of students who have made a grade of :'A" or 'B" in every course taken during the prevIous semester.

In a large percentage of cases the teacher will be expected to sponsor clubs ~nd other student groups.. There.fore, it is very llnportant that every student In college be,ome accustomed activIties and fa1.. th t to certain i , 2223 \.

Even If a taacher never a club sponsor, edu.ational value becomes of participation in thesetheactivi- ties in college is perhaps as great as that of I,:omeccourses of study. It is, therefore, the 'Jollcy of the College that each student shall ,ach semester be a member of some club or other activity aside from athletics. In the College year 1941-1942, the following plan of extra-curricular activities will be in cffect: 1. At the beginning of the semester each student will be given the opportunity of stating a preference for any club or activity in which he is interested. 2. A club or activity may be set up on petition of not fewer than fifteen students with the approval of the Committee on Student ,,-ctlvitles. 3. All organizations will provide for regular meetngs. (0.) For the present, the- first and third Mondays will be regarded as club days, with a general reservation of the third period for club meetings. (b.} The fraternities, the dramatic club, the music organizations, and, religious activities will meet according to the following schedule: Fraternitieg--,Monday evenings Dramatic Club-Tuesday evenings Y.

E=h student should be a member of some activity in which he has a native ana a vital interest. Early in the semester, after sufficient time for the organization of activities, there will be a check-up by the Committee on Student Actlvitles of all student choices. Lists of those who are late in joining activities will be furnished the Dean of Men, the Dean of Women, and the Dean of [nEtruction. Each club or activity is to choose its own Faculty Advisor, subject to the consent of the faculty member-concerned and the approval of the Committee on Student Activities. No one I I shall be expected to serVe as Faculty Adv i sor for more than one activity. The Fac~ltY Advisor is not -to be resp()nsible f()T plannIng the program of the activity, but his relationship is only advisory. J ~'he Women's Athletic Association offers twenty-three sports to the women on campus. Each activity is to have a Secretary, whose duty It shall be to record and report memb\Jr'3hip and program as follows: (a.) A membership report to be turned over to the Chairman of the Committee on Student Activities early ijach semester. Healthful recreation for the pure joy of participation and the attainment of new skills adds much to the happiness of the'members. Each woman student upon entering Is elected to' membership in either the Phis or the Deltas who make up the national health and physical education sorority, Phi Delta Lambda. (b.) -(c.) Participation report of each individual member, of the office holders, attendance' at meetings, and contrl. bution to the program; this report to go to the Dean of Instruction at the end of the semester. A monthly report of the activities of the club to be given th" Chairman of the Committee on Student Activities. Blanks for all these reports may be secured from the offic" of the Dean of Instruction, COLLEGE ACTIVITIES W. A. A. Throughout the year there is regular intramural comp"tition between these two groups. Some of the sports offered are: field hockey, horseback ridJlnlg, volleyball, newcomb, bi.cycling, hiking, basketball, shuffleboard, skiing, skating, mushball, tennis, golf, archery and field and track events. At an annual meeting In th& spring, awards are given to all those who have b"en outstanding in various sports. We shall be happy to welcom" at the fall inJtlataion throughout the year. The "E" and to play all wom"n with yoU Club The aim and purpose ()f this cljlb, made up of athletes who have won a varsity E in Intercollegiate competition, is to maintain a high standard of athletics at Edinboro.
