THE SENIOR EXAMINATION.
At the close of the senior year, an examination is held by the

the branches of that part of the
course.
To each of those who are found proficient, a diploma is
then given, in which are named the branches of the course, and
the degree of Bachelor of the Elements is conferred upon the
holder.
This diploma exempts from any further examination for

m

teaching in the public schools of Pennsylvania.
These diplomas
are often endorsed by the State Superintendent of New York, thus

making them

valid for that State also.
