THE STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE AT BLOOMSBURG
Bloomsburg, the County Seat of Columbia County

The State Teachers College at Bloomsburg is situated on a hill at
the head of Main Street. Bloomsburg is a developing community of

Bloomsburg's educational ideals are exemplified in the
public library with its art gallery in which art exhibits ^re housed
from time to time, in the fine municipal hospital, in the $500,000 JuniorSenior High School, and in the State Teachers College on the hill, a
simple and dignified Acropolis.
The town's business energy is evidenced in the fine business section
reaching out from the public square, in the large carpet, silk, and hosiery mills, and in other industries.

industry.

Bloomsburg lies in the heart of a singularly beautiful country.
Surrounded by gently sloping hills, it is situated at the juncture of the
picturesque Susquehanna River and Fishing Creek.
Following the
drives about Bloomsburg is like turning the pages of a lovely picture
book. The streets are wide and well lighted by boulevard lights on
standards whose baskets blossom with flowers and vines in summer
and are filled with evergreens in winter. A city park, carefully planned
to bring out the natural beauty of the site, will some day stretch along
the Susquehanna River front.
The citizens of Bloomsburg worship in beautiful church homes
where Teachers College students are always welcome to share the
religious and social life. The churches include Baptist, Catholic, Church
of Christ,

Episcopal,

Evangelical,

Lutheran, Methodist, Presbyterian,

and Reformed.

and science and in the ancient and modern languages.
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 was essential for the
future development of the Bloomsburg Literary Institute.
Under his inspiration, the charter of 1856 was revived and the
following officials elected President, D. J. Waller; 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 man 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.
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

branches.

James P. Wickersham, State Superintendent
was traveling through Bloomsburg on the train.
He saw the new school on the hill "ablaze with lights" and thought the
Literary 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 dormitory 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
eighty in the Model School.
The school was called the Bloomsburg Literary Institute and State
Normal School until it was purchased by the State May 22, 1916. After

from March, 1872 to June, 1873. In 1873, Dr. T. L. Griswold became
Principal, serving until 1877.

Those early years were trying ones, 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 handsomer building, the original part of the
present Waller Hall, was built. In spite of discouraging circumstances,
the school began paying expenses during Dr. Griswold's administration.

FUNDS TO HELP WORTHY STUDENTS
Funds presented by the several classes are considered and treated as loan funds and are now administered solely by the Alumni Association.

All inquiries concerning this fund should be addressed to Mr. D. D.

and payments should be made

to him.

Loans are to be repaid to the Treasurer in monthly payments of
not less than $10.00 each and every month beginning four months after
the student graduates.
Because of the great number of requests for loans, it has been
found necessary to limit the loans to the Senior class; and to further
limit the amount to any one person to $100.00.

THE TRAINING FACILITIES OF THE COLLEGE

A Teachers College cannot properly prepare teachers unless an
adequate training school is maintained. 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 facilities of the State Teachers College at Bloomsburg.
The Training School, which is housed in the
new Benjamin Franklin Training School Building on the campus, consists of a kindergarten 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.
In addition to the Training School the elementary grades of the
public schools of the town of Bloomsburg are used for student teaching.
Student teaching in the secondary field is done in the Junior-

Senior High Schools of Bloomsburg and Williamsport, the high school
of Danville, and the Scott Township Consolidated School. The complete cooperation of the school authorities of the towns of Bloomsburg,
Scott Township, Williamsport, and Danville makes it possible to have
adequate facilities for the training of teachers for the graded schools
and secondary schools.

For the preparation of rural teachers, one-room schools in Columbia County adjacent to the Teachers College are used. Through the
cooperation of the school authorities in the rural districts of Hemlock
and Mount Pleasant Townships it is possible to have facilities for the
training of rural teachers.

state Teachers College, Bloomsbnrg, Pa.

41

The rural and urban 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 normal public

school conditions.

SPECIAL CLASS TEACHER TRAINING
The State Teachers College at Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, has been
designated by the State Council of Education as a center for the education of teachers of Special Classes. All requirements for certification
can be

satisfied at this College.

Teachers in service are permitted to earn and secxire credit by
extension courses for twenty-five per cent of the courses included in
the four year curriculum selected. This refers to teachers in service
only and implies a maximum of thirty-two semester hours.

FRIDAY EVENING AND SATURDAY CLASSES FOR
TEACHERS IN SERVICE
This work is residence work so that all the facilities of the College.
such as the library and laboratories, are available for the use of the
students.

There is always the possibility of offering any course in any curriculum if circumstances permit. The offering is dependent upon two
things.

First:

the

demand from

teachers in service for the course

and, second: the availability of the faculty instructor.

As the mem-

ber 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 determined.

Any teacher in service who is interested in this plan will be fully
informed by communicating with the Dean of Instruction. The course
of study desired should be indicated.

more satisfactory than one held during the rush of registration

DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
PURPOSE
The State Department
Teachers

of Public

Instruction has designated the

Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, as one of the
institutions in which the high school commercial teachers of the
Commonwealth may be trained. The Bachelor of Science in Education degree is conferred on the completion of the Business Education
Curriculum authorized by the State Council of Education. This curriculum is shown in detail in this catalogue.
State

College,

Graduates of this Curriculum are fully certified to supervise or
teach commercial subjects in the secondary schools of Pennsylvania.
This curriculum is so broad that it not only prepares students to teach
but also gives them the choice of several business vocations. The
training provides adequate preparation in business knowledge and skills
as well as teaching theory and practice.

ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS
This curriculum has proved so popular since it was organized in
that it is necessary to limit the number of entering students.
All persons who expect to enroll as Freshmen should make their
reservations early in the year. The best prepared high school students
are accepted. This does not mean that new students must have had
commercial work in high school or business college. Many students
who have not had previous commercial training complete Commercial
Teacher Training work successfully.

CERTIFICATION INFORMATION
The object of this course is to prepare commercial teachers for
the public schools of Pennsylvania. In accordance with the regulations of the State Council of Education, approved December 7, 1929,
high school graduates who propose to prepare for teaching commercial
subjects must take a four-year Teacher Training course (or the equivalent) approved by the Department of Public Instruction.
After September 1, 1931, no temporary standard certificate
be issued or validated for the secondary field except where three
years of approved post-high school preparation shall have been completed. Observation, participation, and practice teaching of not fewer
than six semester hours or its equivalent must be a part of the required

is

invaluable in teaching.

OFFICE PRACTICE AND BUSINESS EXPERIENCE

A student completing this curriculum has had an opportunity to
spend one and one-half years in office practice courses. In these three
courses in office practice, a student acts as an actual business worker
in four different offices where he is held responsible for the same
vocational efficiency as the regularly employed office workers.

This

actual experience

is supplemented by class instruction covering the
following: Office skills and phases of business knowledge; alphabetic,
geographic, and numeric filing with actual practice; dictation and
transcription at high rates of speed; the cutting of stencils, and the
operation of the mimeograph machine; the making of stencils with

the mimeoscope; the preparation of copy and duplication on the ditto
machine; the complete operation of the dictaphone; advanced work in

business papers; the operation of the Burroughs posting machine and
the Underwood bookeeping machine; the operation of adding machines

and calculators.

The courses in office practice are not textbook courses, but represent the actual carrying out of business transactions. While there
is no substitute for business experience, we feel that such actual experience as provided in connection with the above outlined work in
materially aids the teacher of commercial subjects when
he attacks classroom problems.

STUDENT TEACHING
In order that Senior students may have an opportunity to observe and teach in actual class rooms, the Commercial Departments
of five high schools are used. In addition to the Commercial Depart-

ment of the Bloomsburg High School, and the Danville High School,
three high schools, located in Williamsport, Pennsylvania, now serve
as student teaching centers for Commercial students. Of these three
high schools, two of them are Junior High Schools, and the third a
Senior High School.
The three high schools used in Williamsport,
Pennsylvania, are: The Senior High School, Andrew Curtin Junior
High School, and Theodore Roosevelt Junior High School. In the five
high schools cooperating with the College for student teaching purposes there are seven regular teachers whose purpose it is to help the
training of students.

In

addition

member

to

the

seven cooperating teachers, a supervisor, a

these schools weekly for the purpose of supervision and conferences

with student teachers.
Apprenticeship teaching means observation of regular employed
teachers, planning the course, units of work,

and

lessons,

and

finally

the actual participation of the student as a teacher who is in charge
of a classroom.
Since the amovmt of student teaching is more than

twice that required by the state for certification, we feel that this
apprenticeship period under the conditions which we have set up
goes a long way toward giving our graduates experience in actual
school situations before they are ready lo become regular teachers in
the public school system of the State of Pennsylvania.

State Teachers College, Bloomsburg, Pa.

SELECTING A COLLEGE
Anyone thinking of becoming a commercial teacher should write
the Department of Public Instruction, Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, to
ascertain the standing of the institution he contemplates entering. The
character of College work offered, the ability to properly certify graduates,

and the success of graduates should be considered in the choice

of a College.

OPPORTUNITIES FOR GRADUATES
There is a great demand in Pennsylvania at the present time for
properly trained, degree-holding commercial teachers.
With the
changing certification requirements, properly trained commercial
teachers will find their way into positions as supervisors and heads
of commercial departments in the various secondary schools.
Ninety
per cent of the graduates of the Business Education Curriculum are
employed at the present time.

Until recent years, little commercial work was offered in the
Junior High Schools. In connection with the exploratory and vocational guidance work carried on in the Junior High Schools, courses
in Junior Business Training and other similar courses have been
rapidly growing in favor. As a result, properly trained teachers are

The demand for commercial teachers may easily be accounted

TEACHER PLACEMENT
The Department of Commerce acts as a clearing house for employment purposes. Our graduates are placed without charge through
the cooperation of the Placement Service of the Department of Public
Instruction and the Placement Service of our own College. The Department of Commerce likewise takes a special interest in securing positions
for

its

graduates.
