By unanimous consent of the Board of Presidents and

meeting of the Board of Presidents of the State Teachers Colleges
of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania was held in Room 317 of the
Department of Public Instruction, Tuesday, July 25, 1939, instead

Approval of the minutes of the meeting of
the Board of Presidents held in Harrisburg, Thursday, May 18, 1939
I.
On motion by Doctor Steele, seconded by Doctor Haas,
was
voted
that the minutes of the meeting held Thursday,
it
May 18, 1939, be corrected as follows:
Page 1353 - Delete the last sentence of the report,
"The Committee admits that even 24
hours is not the optimum preparation."
Page 1354
-
Delete the last two paragraphs of the
report on the Revision of English Requirements and substitute the following paragraphs:
"The Committee admits that even twentyfour hours is not the optimum preparation
for a teacher of English, but the attention
of the Board of Presidents is called to the
fact that it is possible for a prospective
teacher of English to add a second certification field, Social Studies for example,
and still complete forty-four hours of
English plus the required three-hour course
This should give reasonably
in Speech,
adequate preparation for the teaching of
English.
The attention of the Committee has been
directed by several colleges to duplications
in courses listed and to the omission of
certain areas needed by teachers of English.
Your Committee, therefore, plans to undertake a reexamination of the courses in English,
required and elective, and solicits the
assistance of the English fetaffs in the State
Teachers Colleges in making this study."
Page 1358 - Under M. Report of the Committee re "Testing
Program", September 7 should be September 12.

Revision of English Requirements
Doctor Steele, Chairman of the Curricular Revision
Committee, reported progress.
3.
Home Economics Curriculum
Doctor Steele reported progress. He stated that the
committee felt that no action should be taken at this time with
reference to the Home Economics Curriculum until the two
institutions concerned had an opportunity to study the suggestions
of the committee and to examine the curriculum.
On motion by Doctor Ross, seconded by Doctor Rowland, it
was voted that the report of the Curricular Revision Committee be
accepted as presented,
B,
Report of the Budget Committee
Doctor Miller, Chairman of the Budget Committee, stated
that the committee had met with Doctor Davis and discussed the
matter of restoring salaries of employes of State Teachers
Colleges at the rate of $120 a year until the step on the Salary
Qualification Schedule was reached to which their experience and
education entitled them.
Doctor Haas, a member of the Budget Committee, briefly
outlined for the members of the Board the history of the Salary
Qualification Schedule. He stated that about six years ago the
Salary Qualification Schedule was "frozen." When that was not
sufficient, the next move was to cut all employes ten per cent.
The preceding Administration made one move toward removing that
inequity.
It provided in the Budget sufficient money to remove
the ten per cent cut but it did not provide money to put the
Schedule into operation so far as increments are concerned.
On motion by Doctor Haas, seconded by Mr. Swope, Doctor
Ross, and Doctor King, it was voted that the salary of an employee
which is beloxw the minimum rate of the class, as contemplated by
the State Salary Schedule, may be raised to the minimum of the
class for which such employee is eligible - provided that such
increase shall be at a rate not to exceed one increment per year.
-1364-
Doctor Allen wished to be recorded as voting "no"
because of budgetary limitations at East Stroudsburg.
Doctor King asked whether adjustments could not be made
He
if money were available in the budget of the institution.
stated that he felt the whole matter was based on the distribution
of funds in the individual institutions.
Doctor Allen pointed out that there were a number of
institutions that desired to raise the salaries of their employes
to the level to which they are entitled but could not do so
because their budgets did not permit it. He stated that East
Stroudsburg could not go along with such a proposal because of its
budgetary limitations.
Charts indicating a study of the Average Salaries Paid
Teachers in State Teachers Colleges on a thirty-six weeks basis
were distributed to the members of the Board for consideration. A
copy of this chart follows page 1365.
It was pointed out that on the basis of this study the
average salary of teachers in four year high schools in first
class school districts appears to be more than $700 higher than
the average salary of instructors in State Teachers Colleges.
Doctor Steele moved, and Doctor Flowers seconded that a
committee be appointed to consider the matter of professorial
ranking and bring in a report at the next meeting of the Board.
Doctor Miller raised the question about the plan held in
abeyance by the Superintendent of Public Instruction with reference
to the ranking of faculty members.
Doctor Steele withdrew his motion and it was consented to
by Doctor Flowers who seconded the motion.
On motion by Doctor Steele, seconded by Doctor Flowers,
it was voted that there be called to the attention of the Superintendent of Public Instruction the previous action of the Board with
reference to professorial ranking in the State Teachers Colleges with
the recommendation that a committee be appointed to carry out the
purpose of the recommendation and to study the whole matter taking
into consideration the previous recommendation of the Budget Committee
which had been held in abeyance.
-1365-
Doctor Ackley spoke briefly to the members of the Board on
the matter of allocations. He stated that he did not believe drives
should be made on the emergency fund at the beginning of the biennium.
He called attention to the policy of the Board with reference to the
adjustment fund and the emergency fund and pointed out that if it were
felt wise to change the policy, then the Board might consider the
matter*
Doctor King stated that he felt the raising of the salary of
a competent instructor who is receiving a salary below that on the
Salary Schedule to which his education and experience qualify him was
just as much of an emergency as buying material needs for the institution
Doctor Donald P. Davis, Director, Bureau of Administration and
Finance, appeared before the Board and briefly discussed the matter of
allocations.
Doctor Allen stated that if the institutions could request
allocations from the Aujustment Fund to take care of the much-needed
salary adjustments of certain instructors, he would then like to withdraw his action with reference to the motion concerning salary adjustments and desired to vote "yes" instead of "no".
It was pointed out that the Adjustment Fund", when distributed,
became a part of the regular budget of the institution and was available
for such expenditures as are in accord with the policy of the Board with
the approval of the Superintendent,
C,
Report of Dr. Ross re "Marking Systems'1
Doctor Ross reported progress,
D,
Report of the Committee re "Limitation of Enrolments "
Doctor Flowers, Chairman of the Committee re "Limitation of
Enrolments", reported progress. He stated that the State Department
of Public Instruction planned to make a study of enrolments in the
State Teachers Colleges and that his committee would withhold any
action until such a study was completed.
He stated that the committee was unanimous in the point of
view that no institution should be permitted to grow beyond such a
point that it would influence budget matters. He pointed out that it
was a matter of redistributing enrolments rather than limiting enrolments. He said that the committee believed that certain factors, such
as facilities, service area, major offering •«• such as music, art, et
cetera -, and placement should be considered.

Report of the Committee on Entrance Requirements

Uniform College Admission Blank
Doctor Steele, Chairman of the Committee on Entrance
Requirements, reported that he had received criticisms and suggestions
from only six of the institutions regarding the uniform college admission blank. These suggestions and criticisms, he stated, would be
incorporated into the revised form and resubmitted for the information
of the Board at a subsequent meeting.

Report of the Committee on Publications
Doctor Haas, Chairman of the Committee on Publications,
reported progress.
-1367-
Doctor Haas called the attention of the Board to the question
of developing a "money control unit" for publications. He stated that
to develop such a "money control unit" it would be necessary for the
committee to secure figures concerning the cost of publications for all
institutions, the number of teachers by counties, and the number of high
school graduates by counties.
Doctor Rowland raised the question as to whether the Budget
Office would regard as an adequate control the setting up of a money
basis or whether they would not still wish to consider the actual
printing situation in the institutions regardless of the money that
might be set aside.
Doctor Klonower stated that he felt the Budget Office was
primarily concerned with the expenditure of State money.
Doctor Steele stated that he was in favor of a money unit
control and that he felt it would be more effective and more satisfactory if such could be worked out.
On motion by Doctor Rowland, seconded by Doctor Allen, it
was voted that the report of progress of the Committee on Publications
be accepted,

Report of the Fees Committee
Doctor Haas, Chairman of the Fees Committee, stated that he
had submitted the following report to the members of the Board of
Presidents under date of July 21, 1939:
"STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE
Bloomsburg
Pennsylvania
July 21, 1939
To the Members of the Board of Presidents:
Below please find the report of the Fees Committee to be
presented at the meeting of the Board, Tuesday, July 25, 1939,
covering the items on the Docket as submitted by Doctor Klonower:
1.
Question of Interpretation and Uniform Procedure re Fees
for Special Curriculums.
The question raised as the Committee understands it is
the amount of special fee to be charged when courses to be
credited in a special field are not taken as part of the
regular special curriculum.
It is the opinion of the Committee that If the course
taken is to be credited to a special curriculum then the special fee
charged should be a pro-rated amount of the total special fee for one
semester.
-1368-
*
,
2-Interpretation of Student Activities Fees
The Committee understands that this question was raised
by Doctor Hill in his letter of June 27, 1939, as follows:
'I wanted to inquire whether there is a rule
limiting the amount one of our Colleges may
collect from each student for this fee. If the
amount is to vary, as it reasonably might, according
to student population, some Colleges seem to be at
a disadvantage.
In addition to this question, Doctor Hill expressed the
hope that all special fees might be abolished. To these
points the Chairman replied as follows:
The Student Activities Fee is administered by the
local institution. There has never been, so far as I know,
any regulation requiring uniformity. Personally, I would
like also if all fees could be omitted.
I confess that
under the present conditions, however, I do not see how
this could be done.'
3- Late Registration Fee
A number of presidents have asked again that this item
be considered.
In order to bring this matter specifically
before the Board, the following resolution is presented:
'Each student registering after the date officially
set for registration shall pay an additional fee of
($•50 to $1) per day until the student is in regular
attendance in accordance with the regulations of the
Board of Presidents, provided that the total amount of
the Late Registration Fee shall not exceed($5 to $10).
The same regulation to apply to approved inter-semester
payments.
4-Pool Fee
A number of presidents have requested that the matter of
a Pool Fee receive consideration.
Considerable additional
cost will be required for such items as personnel, electric
current water, laundry, supplies, etc.
In order to bring
this matter specifically before the Board, the following
resolution is presented:
,
'Each student (who is required to use the pool as
shall pay a
a part of the work in Health Education)
fee of ($3 to $5 per semester).
Respectfully submitted

On motion by Doctor Rowland, seconded by Doctor Hill, it
was voted that the Board adopt Recommendation 1 of the report,
which reads as follows:
"1-Question of Interpretation and Uniform Procedure re Fees
for Special Curriculums.
The question raised as the Committee understands
it is the amount of special fee to be charged when courses
to be credited in a special field are not taken as part of
the regular special curri culurtt.
It is the opinion of the Committee that if the
course taken is to be credited to a special curriculum
then the special fee charged should be a pro-rated amount
of the total special fee for one semester."
Action was not necessary on Recommendation
2
of the report
of the committee.
With reference to the Late Registration Fee, it was moved
by Doctor Steele, and seconded by Doctor Flowers, that each student
registering after the date officially set for registration shall pay
an additional fee of $1.00 per day until the student is in regular
attendance in accordance with the regulations of the Board of
Presidents, provided that the total amount of the Late Registration
Fee shall not exceed $5.00. The same regulation to apply to approved
inter-semester payments.
On motion by Doctor Miller, seconded by Doctor Hill, it
was voted to amend the motion to read as follows:
"RESOLVED, That each student registering after the date
officially set for registration shall pay an additional
fee of $1.00 per day until the student is in regular
attendance in accordance with the regulation of the
Board of Presidents, provided that the total amount of
the Late Registration Fee shall not exceed $5,00, except
when permission for late registration has been secured

Doctor Flowers, Chairman of the Committee re "Testing
Program", submitted the following report:
"Report of the Committee on Testing
July 25, 1939
The Committee on Testing recommends the following testing program
for 1939-1940:
1,
Psychological . The Committee is in agreement with the report
of the Committee on Entrance Examinations of May 18, 1939, in
which it recommended the use of the Psychological test prepared by the American Council on Education.
The Committee recommends that all of the colleges use the same
psychological test in order that comparable studies may be
made. In view of the fact that this test will be used for
organization and placement, we recommend that the hand-scored
edition be used so that immediate results may be secured for
classification and organization. Price per copy - $.07
2.
Other entrance examinations . The Committee recommends that
each college be given freedom in selecting other tests
designed to aid in the organization of the incoming freshman
class.

4.
Time . The Committee recommends that each college may
determine the time of the administration of the tests but
in all cases that the testing program be completed by
March 1, 1940.
5.
Results of Program .
That the results of the testing program
be tabulated in such form that each institution may identify
its scores in comparison with the other thirteen colleges
but that in no case may an institution know the scores of
the other colleges.
This necessitates central scoring and tabulation.
6.
Machine Scoring
If it is possible for the department to
score

the tests under 3 a, b, and c, it would
be necessary for the various colleges to purchase suitable
forms.

Employment of Administrative Officers in State
Teachers Colleges on Fifty-two Weeks Basis
Doctor Rowland raised the question as to whether it would
not be more professional to employ administrative officers on a
fifty-two weeks basis rather than on a thirty-six weeks basis inasmuch
as their duties do not terminate with the end of semesters but carry
through the entire year.
On motion by Doctor Miller, seconded by Doctor Rowland, it
was voted that a committee be appointed to study the problem of the
classification of administrative officers.
F.
Uniform Placement Blank for State Teachers Colleges
It was pointed out that each institution operates a
Placement Service. It was asked whether, in the interest of economy
the Board members felt it advisable to develop some type of uniform
placement form that might be used and printed in bulk in the State
Teachers Colleges,
On motion by Doctor Rowland, seconded by Doctor Steele, it
was voted that a committee be appointed to consider the advisability
of the development of a uniform blank on placement that would represent
confidential information desirable for prospective employes.
G.
Rating Scale for Teachers
Doctor Ackley spoke briefly on Act 274 which amends the
Tenure Act. He stated that when a teacher is dismissed on the grounds
of alleged incompetency, the question of competency shall be determined
in terms of an evaluation of her work through a standardized rating
scheme. He further stated that a teacher who first enters the teaching
profession will be designated as a temporary employe and will be on
probation for two years. A report on the quality of her work will be
made twice a year by the district or county superintendent which report
will include a rating device by the Department of Public Instruction
and a committee appointed to prepare the rating card.
A copy of the minutes of the meeting of the Committee on
"Teacher Rating" held June 22, 1939, follows page 1378 as Exhibit "G".
It was pointed out that the Graduate Schools of Education in
Pennsylvania are now working on a seminar of graduate character for
administrative and supervisory officials on the development of the
techniques of the evaluation of instructional service.
-1374-
It was suggested that in September or October a one day
meeting of the administrative and supervisory officials in the
service areas of the State Teachers Colleges be held at which the
various phases of the application of the amendments to the Tenure
Act be discussed and practical demonstrations given.
Copies of a rating scale for teachers as developed by the
Oklahoma A. & M. College, Stillwater, Oklahoma, were distributed to
the members of the Board.

Affiliation with the Pennsylvania Committee on

Secretary, Pennsylvania State Education Association, to Dr. Clarence
E. Ackley, Acting Superintendent of Public Instruction, was read to
the members of the Board:
"June 23, 1939
Doctor Clarence E. Ackley, President
Board of Teachers College Presidents
Department of Public Instruction
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
My dear Doctor Ackley:
There has been in the process of organization since
early in the spring, a committee known as the Pennsylvania
Committee on Public Education. The last meeting at which a
constitution was adopted was held in the Department on May 25,
At that time the Board of Teachers College Presidents was
elected to Class A Affiliate membership. Doctor Haas attended
the meeting, representing the group of Teachers College
Presidents at the request of the State Superintendent of Public
Instruction, Doctor Ade,
I am now directed by the Secretary of the Pennsylvania
Committee on Public Education to extend to the Board of Teachers
College Presidents an invitation for Class A Affiliate membership
and have them designate the names of two individuals who will be
Class B Representative Associate Members.
-1375-
As President of the Board of Presidents, I am transmitting this request to you. In order that you may be more
fully informed I am enclosing the by-laws and minutes which I
should like to have returned when you are finished with them.
The issue is, will the Board of Teachers College
Presidents accept membership and the names of two individuals
to be presented to the Committee as Associate Members.
I am
assuming that the Superintendent of Public Instruction will be
invited to membership on the Committee and if it is within your
jurisdiction I believe the Committee would be glad to have
you, as President of the Board, designate Doctor Haas as one of
the Associate Members,
Very sincerely yours,
H. E. Gayman
Executive Secretary"
On motion by Doctor Rowland, seconded by Doctor Allen, it was
voted that the matter be referred to a committee of the Board, with
Doctor Haas as Chairman, for study and recommendation at the next meeting of the Board.

In a communication from the Dean of the Law School of Dickinson
College, Doctor Rowland advised the Board that a statement had been made

Doctor Ackley outlined the purpose of the meeting. He pointed out that
Act 52 passed by the General Assembly 1937, commonly known as the Tenure Law,
developed difficult problems both for teachers and boards of school directors.
Despite many of the criticisms of the Tenure Act, there was a general belief
that public school administration had been improved because of the Act. This is
indicated in better administration, more discriminating selection of teachers, and
a general tendency to encourage growth in service on the part of teachers. However, both teachers and school board members were agreed that some modification in
the law was necessary in order to clarify procedures for relieving school
districts of unsatisfactory instructional service. There was a general feeling
that competency on the part of a teacher should be the basis for retention and
that incompetency should be the basis for dismissal. A further development of
the rating system was suggested as an amendment to Act 52. The committee was
requested not to think of themselves as representing any section or organization
of the State in the consideration of a constructive program but rather as
representing all interests that have the welfare of the children in the public
schools at heart.
Doctor Henry Klonower, Director, Teacher Education and Certification,
commented on the agenda and the exhibits which had been distributed to each
member of the committee. The agenda follows:

Before the general discussion opened, Doctor Ackley suggested
that a chairman be nominated by the group, Mr. Best moved that Doctor
Aclcley continue to act as chairman.
The motion was duly seconded, and
carried. Doctor Ackley continued to preside, after indicating that he
would have preferred to have a member of the group selected as chairman.
Doctor Alexander J. Stoddard, Superintendent of Schools in
Philadelphia, was introduced to the group. He expressed the judgment that
the entire rating program should be approached from the standpoint of the
improvement of the service of the individual. He expressed opposition to
a mechanical rating
teachers should be rated as human beings. He
questioned the possibility of rating personality on the ground that such
a quality was too intangible. He preferred to approach the matter from an
entirely objective point of view. Every rating card should be simple in
construction and the attempt made to develop ratings on the basis of
objectivity. Personal appearance should be considered in terms of its
effect and the effect was the important factor to be rated. He called the
attention of the members of the conference to the difficulties of a five
point scale; a rating card that would indicate satisfactory and unsatisfactory
would be more desirable.
—
Doctor Francis B. Haas, President, State Teachers College,
Bloomsburg, stated that during the present summer session approximately
350 teachers enrolled at the College were asked to give their reactions to
a new rating card. Each group at the College was asked to discuss the
revisions to the card and return their comments in writing. He summarized
briefly the comments:
1.
How is the competency of the rater to be judged? Is the
rating to be based on one rating by one person or on a
number of ratings by a number of different persons, and
will the different persons come from a variety of
educational situations?
2.
What are the number and types of cards to be developed?
Is the rating requirement now in operation to be continued
or will an attempt be made to develop a new card which
will take the place of the old one? Would it be advisable
to develop several cards for different types of teacherpupil contacts?
3.
Am I to be judged by what someone thinks I look like and do,
or by what I do for the children and the community?
4..
We want a rating card which will not be "used by some smart
aleck to make us look like fools in court".
6
Doctor Ben G. Graham, Superintendent of Schools in Pittsburgh,
stated that sfter years of experience with all types of rating cards, he had
reached the conclusion that the most workeble ratings were "satisfactory" and
'"unsatisfactory" .
He emphasized the fact that if the new rating program is
to work the teachers themselves must feel a sense of responsibility in the
development of the program and recognize a feeling of justice in the whole
matter. There must be a confidence on the part of teachers in the persons
who do the rating. The ability to rate a professional employee requires
competence on the part of the person rating. He further suggested that a
teacher's dismissal should not be dependent on the rating of one person.
Such a decision should involve the judgment of at least three comoetent
persons. The underlying philosophy of the whole rating program represents
the preservation of adecuate instructional service for the boys and girls
in the schools.
The cuestion was raised whether the rating card should provide
for a procedure through which teachers might rate themselves, followed by
a conference with the superintendent under whom the teacher serves. Doctor
Graham pointed out that this procedure had been tried in some school
districts and it has not proven satisfactory. Poor teachers rate themselves
too high and good teachers rate themselves much too low.
Mr. John Larkin, a teacher in the Philadelphia schools, suggested
that some consideration should be given to a plan by which other teachers
would rate teachers, and that these ratings be in addition to ratings given
by supervisors or administrators. Mr. Padden. a school director from
Scranton, stated that the principal of the school might submit a rating
that would count as 75% of the total rating, and the supervisor might submit
a rating that would count 15% and the superintendent might submit a rating
that would count 10$ of the total rating given to a teacher. He strongly
expressed the opinion that personal appearance should be one of the qualities
considered in the rating of every teacher. He submitted a tentative rating
card for the future consideration of the group.
Mr. Edwin Cruttenden, a teacher in the public schools of Scranton,
expressed the opinion that if the objective of Act 274 was the improvement
of instruction in Pennsylvania, he uestioned whether such a rating card would
bring about the result. If teachers are to be dismissed for incompetency,
a rating card will be submerged in the jealousies and suspicions among the
teachers. However, if such a rating program will develop a card which is
simple and understood by all who use it, it might serve a helpful purpose.
Senator F. W. Ruth, a school director in Berks County, called the
attention of the group to the fact that tenure was provided to protect good
teachers but that in many instances tenure was protecting incompetent
teachers. Whatever form the rating card takes, it must protect teachers
from political and other interference by establishing a reasonable method
by which incompetent teachers may be dismissed. He then pointed out that
seniority does not necessarily bring to the boys and girls in the public
schools the best teachers. Where teachers are retained purely on the basis
of seniority rights, many old teachers who could take advantage of the
school employees' retirement opportunities would be retained and the better

Miss Sara Walsh, classroom teacher in the public schools of
Philadelphia, pointed out the difficulty in striving to make a rating card
serve two purposes; namely, as a part of any dismissal procedure, and second,

program should provide for a periodical review of the procedure and that
great care should be taken that teachers be brought together to discuss the
final decisions of the committee to be appointed to draft the rating card.
She urged that personality should not be included in the rating scale
because it is a subjective quality. The evaluation of good citizenship is
too difficult a matter to be judged by administrators or supervisors. Such
qualities as progressive teaching should be included in the rating scale.
She developed the point that it would be advisable for teachers to be rated
by other teachers. The judgment of teachers should be sought and their
opinions of the rating scale should be solicited through a secret ballot so
that every teacher might feel free to express himself on the merits of the
rating program.
Doctor Armand J. Gerson, Associate Superintendent of Schools in
Philadelphia, asked the cuestion whether there was a legal requirement for
numerical rating of teachers? If there were no legal provision for numerical
ratings, he then urged the members of the committee to consider the terms
"satisfactory" and "unsatisfactory" as sufficiently descriptive to meet all
the requirements of the law.
It was agreed that since the law does not specifically provide for
numerical ratings, any rating terminology might be developed that would carry
out satisfactorily the intent of the law.
Doctor Ben Graham, Superintendent of Schools at Pittsburgh, pointed
if
out that
each teacher is to be rated twice a year, it would be necessary
for school administrators to increase the personnel because of the enormous
increase of clerical work. This would involve additional expense to school
boards. However, if the law contemplated that only probationary teachers and
those teachers whose work proved to be unsatisfactory were to be rated twice
a year, considerable expense would be saved.
Doctor Arthur Ferguson, Superintendent of Schools at York, expressed
the opinion that Doctor Graham's suggestion was a practical one and in harmony
with the spirit of the law and urged that due considerations be given to this
important thought.
Miss Barbara McGlynn, teacher in the public schools of Wilkes-Barre,
urged that every effort be made to eliminate the purpose of the rating card
being used as a political club to dismiss competent teachers.
3
Mr. D. A. Best, member of the Board of School Directors at East
McKeesport, again emphasized the necessity of devising a rating card that
would be simple in form and readily understood by both teachers and school
board members. School directors are sincerely interested in the teaching
profession and the teacher and they consider it very vital that some adequate
system of rating be set up that will make it possible to reduce instructional
staff because of decreased oupil population, consolidation of schools, and
other causes. He emphasised the fact that the rating system must make it
possible to discriminate between competent teachers who should remain and
less competent teachers who should be dismissed. The good of the children,
the good of the competent teachers, and the consideration of the taxpayers
should be kept in mind in the course of the development of the rating card.
The rating card should be designed so that it will be a true measure of the
good and competent teacher. He suggested that the card should include more
than two ratings, "satisfactory" and "unsatisfactory". A middle point might
be considered so that teachers would be encouraged to acquire the higher
rating through further professional improvement.
Marion R. Trabue, Dean of the School of Education at Pennsylvania
State College, emphasized the importance of the rating urogram to school
administrators and he called attention to the fact that occasionally
superintendents have lost their positions through the rating of teachers.
Repeals from ratings have been taken to court and it has been proved in a
number of situations that the administrators were wrong. He told of his
experience in the development of rating programs in the Army and in setting
up college personnel ratings for guidance purposes. An intelligent rating
program must take into consideration the objective a teacher is seeking end
that the rating must be related to the accomplishment of the objective.
Wherever a teacher is rated "unsatisfactory", the reasons must be indicated.
All terms should be understood clearly by both teacher and administrator.
The fact that recent studies seem to sustain the judgment thst no two
individuals can agree as to the value of another individual makes the development of any rating program extremely complex and difficult.
•
Miss Gertrude Tsber, classroom teacher in the public schools of
Pittsburgh, expressed the thought that teechers would agree with the program
of rating providing the procedure was simple and the Dualities rated
objective. It must be possible to explain to the person rated where the
deficiencies rest. If the qualities rated are objective, this can be done
more easily than where the qualities to be rated are subjective.
Doctor Alexander J. Stoddard, Superintendent of Schools, at Philadelphia, asked the group of consider the auestion as to whether the same
kind of rating card should be used in evaluating the services of teachers
during the probationary period as would be used for teachers who had become
permanent professional emnloyes? He also expressed the opinion that the
rating card should not be looked upon as a device to assist in "getting rid"
of a teacher. The kind of evidence accumulated for dismissal purposes
should be in terms of more efficient or less efficient and such evidence would
permit a school board to retain the more efficient teachers. The teacher's
case must not be prejudiced by the fact that she failed to teach effectively
in an environment which she did not thoroughly understand.
9
Mr. D. A. Best again celled the attention of the members of the
conference that the rating card must serve two -mrposes: provide protection
for the competent teachers, and provide a means by which school boards
may diminish the size of their instructional staff by releasing less
efficient teachers. There must be nothing punitive in the rating card and
every effort must be made to preserve the equities of competent teachers in
the interest of the boys and girls of the schools.
Miss Helen Wilson pointed out that the rating program might be of
more value if teachers participated in the ratings on a broader scale than
they now do. The program must be constructive and provide a means by which
competent teachers can develop a more effective quality of instructional
service.
Doctor Ben Graham pointed out that the fundamental objective in
supervision is discovering end encouraging the strength of teachers.
Wherever a rating card provides a meejis for the recording of such strengths,
it is likely that weak characteristics will cease to exist in the development
of strength, weaknesses will disappear.
—
Miss Barbara McGlynn oointed out that in all the discussion the
implication has been that the rating program applies solely to teachers.
She called the attention of the group to the fact that the law refers to
temporary professional employes end professional employes. This means that
certain administrative and supervisory officials are included within the
rating program. The ouestion was asked as to who is to rate those who rate
the teachers?
At 12:25 P.M., D.S.T., the conference adjourned
for lunch. It was agreed that the group reconvene at
1:45 P.M., D.S.T.
The conference reconvened at 1:55 P.M. D.S.T.
Doctor Henry Klonower, Director of Teacher Fducation
and Certification, presided.
The suggestion was made that a smell group constituting a subcommittee should try to crystallize the opinions and judgments that were
expressed and that this sub-committee develop a rating card which would
include the qualities to be rated, as suggested in the law. The rating
card could then be printed and distributed among the school districts to
determine the strength end weaknesses of the proposed card. It was moved
by Doctor Francis B. Haas and seconded by Mr. G. 0. ^oore, and voted that
Doctor .Ackley appoint such a sub-committee.

Mr. G. 0. Moore then suggested that it might be helpful if all
the members of the conference would send +heir reactions in writing to the
members of the sub-committee, incluaing their ideas for the development of
a rating card. He hoped that consideration would be given to the suggestion
that simplicity in the form of the rating card was desirable. Ba tings of
"satisfactory" and "unsatisfactory" would serve their purpose. The Chairman
stated that it seemed to be agreed that each member of the conference would
submit suggestions that will be given consideration by the sub-committee in
the tentative rating card that is to be developed.
Doctor Armend J. Gerson pointed out that it might be desirable if
some study were given to the weighting of the qualities to be rated. He
indicated that there are times when the total rating of a teacher may be
entirely satisfactory, but some important quality is lacking in the teacher.
He further suggested that personal qualities should not be weighted separately,
but given consideration in connection with the* other qualities.
Doctor Ben Graham agreed ;rith the peneral procedure that the
sub-committee should formulate a rating card and submit it to the larger
group and the members of the larger <~roup would then submit a written report
including further constructive suggestions.
Miss Sara Walsh urged the members of the committee that if weighting
of the different qualities was to plsy a part in the development of the rating
card, then the greatest weighting should be given to techniques of teaching,
classroom management, and the seniority of the teacher. While pupil reaction
is important, it represented an intangible quality, that did not lend itself
readily to measurement.
President Weir C. Ketler of Grove City College stated that it was
very difficult to measure the details that enter into the composite picture
that is usually referred to as the personality of en individual. He pointed
out the value of maintaining a folder in which the records of many judgments
might be kept. He referred to such a device as the American Council on
Education had developed. In such a folder, periodic reports are filed which
at the end of a term would give a complete record of the experience of the
teacher in the classroom and in the community. This folder might also contain
letters end comments of students and parents, the eopreisment of supervisors,
and possibly some record of the relative achievement of the students in the
classroom. Periodic tests, objective in character, might be given to the
teacher to determine academic achievement. All of these data would be
objective end the personal judgment of the rater would not influence the
composite picture. The rating would be based on specific facts and not on the
unsupported opinion of the person who uses the rating card.
Mr. G. 0. Moore referred to the statement in the law that the teacher
may request her rating if it is unsatisfactory.
11
Doctor Ben Graham said that in all his experience, he has never
been able to convince any boerd of the ability of a. teacher by the sole use
of a rating card but thrt he had elways found it helpful to have sustaining
evidence that comes from periodic observations.
Mr. Leonard Duncen, a classroom teacher in Pittsburgh, expressed
approval of the idee of developing cumulative records for teachers from
which tendencies could be determined. With probationary teachers, such
tendencies would provide en intelligent base for guidance . V'ith such
accumulated reports, administrators might establish more wholesome
relationships vdth the teachers who are to be rated since the teachers
would have a more understanding and sympathetic attitude toward the rating
program. Incompetence is difficult to prove even though it may be evident
to everyone. In other words, the records should be the basis on which the
final rating is made.
Doctor Frederick G. Henke, Professor of Education in Allegheny
College, also emphasized the value of a biographical folder which would be
helpful in the development of an adequate psychology.
He stated that the
folder should contain much material that pertains to background,
progressiveness, techniques, and all the other factors that go to make
an integrated personality
The teacher should be made a partner in the
program so that she will not become susoicious, but rather would understand
the whole procedure looks toward the development of a better educational
program and better educational opportunities for boys and girls.
.
.
Mr. Harvey E. Gayman, Executive Secretary of the Pennsylvania
State Education Association, pointed out that the discussion has centered
almost entirely around the professional aspects of the problem. He
advised the wisdom of including technical legal advice in the deliberations
of the sub-committee since the rating card would serve school boards as the
legal basis on which retentions, suspensions, end dismissals would be
based. Every precaution should be taken to make sure that the card will
be sufficiently inclusive to protect both teachers and school boards. He
suggested that it might be well for the sub-committee to have the benefit
of the opinions of two lawyers.
Miss Ser8 Walsh expressed opposition to the cumulative rating
card and stated that it would have certain inherent dangers. It wculd not
be helpful because the possibilities ere that such, records would be held
over the teacher during her entire probationary period. The rating program
must never become punitive. The more simple the rating card is, the less
opportunity will there be for misunderstanding.
Superintendent J. Andrew Morrow of Bradford County pointed out
that one of the largest problems of the superintendent is the reting of
teachers in service and that the problem of rating nrobationary teachers
was not a particularly difficult one at the present time. He insisted that
the rating card be simnle and understandable. He urged that emphasis be
placed on a rating card that will stimulate growth in service and at the
same time provide a legal basis for the removel of incompetent teachers.
12
Mr. Padden emphasised the point that the lew wss constructive in
character and thtt it had as its primary purpose the maintenance of a worthwhile instructional service through the orotection of competent teachers, but
at the same time, it provided a reasonable plan for the discontinuance of the
services of teachers who are not able, because of personality and academic
background, to give to the children in the community the type of instruction
necessary for the proper functioning of the schools.
Mr. Eest reminded members of the group that the responsibility for
rating teachers was definitely placed on the shoulders cf county and district
superintendents. It is their legal responsibility to cerry out this orogram
as a part of their official duties. This might mean more work on the part of
the administrative officers, but at least it is definite and cannot be evaded.
Doctor Albert Lindsay Rowland, President, State Teachers College,
Shippensburg, stated that the rating card now in use by the Department of Public
Instruction was developed nineteen years ago. Efforts have been made to revise
it from time to time.
Some kind of rating device for all teachers roust prevail
if the teaching service is to meet ell its obligations. Few revisions have
been made to the rating card now in effect although superintendents and teachers
have been asking freruently whether the card has served the purpose for which
it had been developed. He emphasized the fact that merely placing a new rating
card in the hands of school administrators would not, in itself, remedy all of
the comolains that had been made concerning rating programs. Rating cards are
useless if you cannot deoend on the integrity of the person doing the rating.
It must be assumed that those who deal with rating programs are persons of
integrity and that interest in the development of sdeouete teaching situations
motivates the person who rates the teacher. It is necessary to have
qualitative analyses of teachers for statistical purposes. The development of
an sdecuete teacher education program is dependent on the eceumuL? tion of
understandable facts. The rating card gives to those responsible for the
coordination of agencies engaged in teacher education such facts. In commenting
on the suggestions that all ratings should be discussed with teachers, he
pointed out that even though there was a wide discrenency in the two judgments,
the judgment of the official who does the rating would, probably have to prevail.
He suggested that the sub-committee might accomplish considerably more in the
way of a constructive program by reviewing the existing program. This would
establish a starting point from which to grow. The problem would be to imorove
the present rating score card to meet the newer situation.
Doctor Ackley had re-joined the conference during the course of the
afternoon discussion. He pointed out that the interesting discussion had
carried the meeting oast the time set for adjournment. He stated that he would
be pleased to appoint the committee that was to draft the rating card. He
assured the members of the conference that the basic ides that should color all
consideration of a rating card snould be constructive in character; namely, that
a rating program can be developed in the best interests of the public schools.
He thanked the members of the conference for the generous contribution of their
time and effort, and expressed the appreciation of the Department for the wholesome spirit that prevailed throughout the discussion.
The conference adjourned at 3:15 P.M., D.S.T.

Ranking of Faculty Members
Doctor Miller, Chairman of the Budget Committee, called
the attention of the members of the Board to the report of the Budget
Committee held May 14, 1937 with respect to the Ranking of Faculty
Members, which was as follows:
"REPORT OF BUDGET COMMITTEE
At the meeting of the Board of Presidents on May 14, the
following plan for ranking for faculty members was adopted
for the State Teachers Colleges of Pennsylvania:
1.
Each institution shall have a minimum of eight professors,,
2.
To be eligible for the rank of professor, a faculty
member must hold an earned doctor's degree granted by a
graduate school recognized by the American Association
of Graduate Schools, and shall have a minimum of nine
years of experience, half of which must have been in the
public schools. A major portion of the graduate work
shall have been done in the field or department in which
the professor is teaching.
3.
In order to be eligible for the rank of assistant
professor, a faculty member must hold a minimum of a
Master's degree granted by a graduate school recognized
by the American Association of Graduate Schools, and
shall have had five years of experience, half of which

C. S. Miller, Chairman
Budget Committee"
This report has been approved by the Board of Presidents but was
held in abeyance by the Superintendent of Public Instruction.
Doctor Rowland stated that while he was very much in favor of
establishing some form of ranking and while he believed this set up a
very high standard which should be aimed for, he thought there m re
certain requirements in the proposal which would make it impossible
for many of the schools to maintain. He stated that he thought
provision should be made for allowing the equivalent of the doctor's
degree which is permitted by the American Association of Teachers
Colleges.
The Chairman stated that he felt the proper action at this time
would be to recommend to the Superintendent definite action. He
pointed out that at the present time if the Superintendent approves the
action, the resolution goes into effect because the Board had already
approved it.
On motion by Doctor Miller, seconded by Doctor Flowers, it was
voted that the matter be referred back to the Budget Committee for
further study and presented at a subsequent meeting of the Board.

Report of the Committee re "Service Areas "
Doctor Rowland, Chairman of the Committee re "Service Areas"
reported progress.
Doctor Ade raised the question as to whether it was permissible for one institution to establish extension courses in the service
area of another institution.
The Chairman stated that it was his belief that the institutions were limited by the service areas. He suggested that Doctor Ade
raise the question with the Service Areas Committee.
Doctor Steele pointed out that because of the changes in
highways it was possible that the service area lines may need to be
redefined.
Doctor LaRue raised a question regarding extension work in
the special fields, such as health and physical education, outside the
service area of East Stroudsburg.
The Chairman suggested, if possible, a meeting with those
engaged in health and physical education regarding a delimitation of the
service areas.
Doctor Ross stated that he felt a Handbook of Regulations and
Practices in the State Teachers Colleges should be published.
The Chairman stated that the Department would give very careful consideration to the matter of preparing a general index of the
minutes of the Board of Presidents as a Department project. This would
contain all the regulations and practices of the State Teachers Colleges,

Report of the Committee re "Purchase of Secondary
School Lists"
Doctor Rowland, Chairman of the Committee re "Purchase of
Secondary School Lists", stated that he had received a letter from Mr.
LeFever, President of the local branch of the National Association of
Secondary School Principals, stating that a meeting of their committee
was going to be held in October and that a member of the Board would be
invited to be present at this meeting.
Doctor Rowland stated that inasmuch as the date of this
meeting conflicted with another engagement, he had asked Doctor Rohrbach
to represent the committee at the meeting.
Doctor Rohrbach stated that he would represent the Board of
Presidents at the meeting of this group and would present the Board*
cause.
J.
Delivery of Printed Materials to State Teachers Colleges
Doctor Rohrbach stated that he was interested to know whether
the Department could not materially speed up the delivery of printed
materials to the State Teachers Colleges.
The Chairman stated that he would discuss the matter with the
Department of Property and Supplies.
J£.
Observation of Teaching in an Independent Elementary
School Beyond the St u dent Teaching Requirement for
Graduation
Doctor Rohrbach raised the question as to whether it would be
permissible for his students to do practice teaching on and beyond that
required by the curriculum in the country day schools located in the
Kutztown area.
No objection was raised and the matter was removed from the
Docket

Employment of Administrative Officers in State
Teachers Colleges
Doctor Rowland, Chairman of the Committee appointed to
study the problem of the employment of administrative officers in the
State Teachers Colleges, presented the following resolution:
That the responsible fiscal
"Be it Resolved:
Commonwealth
be requested to
officers of the
permit any of the teachers colleges, whose Board
of Trustees feels the efficiency of the college
to be advanced thereby, to arrange through
appropriate payroll requisition for the payment
•f any or all of the following officers' salaries
on a twelve months basis, the computation to be
calculated on the basis of the present salary
schedule for a period of forty-five weeks:
Dean of Institution, Dean of Men, Dean of Women,
Librarian (if paid on the instructional payroll),
Dietitian (if paid on the instructional payroll),
and Director of the Laboratory Schools. w
Doctor Rowland pointed out that it was his plan to take
the thirty-six weeks salary, plus the nine weeks summer and post-summer
session salary, and spread it out over twelve payments.
Doctor Ross suggested a fifty-two weeks salary instead of
forty-five.
The Chairman suggested that, if possible, the Board of
Presidents recommend to the Executive Board that inasmuch as the
development of the institutions since the last schedule was approved
by the Board has obviously made necessary a twelve-months position for
the Dean of Instruction, the Executive Board modify its schedule to
make this a twelve-months position and possibly carry with it a
slight increase in salary over the forty-five weeks salary.
It was suggested that the committee redefine its resolution
restricting it to the Dean of Instruction.
Doctor Ade asked that the other positions of Dean of V.'omen,
Dietitian, Director of Laboratory School, et cetera, be kept under
consideration.
-1384-
The Chairman further pointed out that if these positions
were put on a yearly basis, the Presidents would be free to employ
the persons involved on a nine, ten, eleven or twelve month basis
depending upon the needs of the institution.
It was agreed that the matter be referred back to the
committee for further consideration and study.
III. New Business
A,
Report of the Calendar Committee
Copies of the Calendar for 1940-41 had already been
submitted to the members of the Board by the Calendar Committee
.
In a letter to Doctor Haas as Chairman of the Calendar
Committee Doctor Rowland suggested the following revision:
"Begin the calendar for 1940-41 with September 11
instead of September 13 and count September 11
and September 12 as days taught, closing the
first semester after the last class on Saturday,
January 18 and open the second semester on
January 22 instead of January 24. It would then
be possible to extend the Easter recess to begin
after the last class on Saturday, April 5, and to
end at noon Tuesday, April 15.
This would provide
for ninety teaching days in the first semester and
for eighty-nine in the second, including May 23,
following which would be Alumni Day, Senior Day and
Commencement, with the semester finally closing
after Commencement on the 27th of May."
The Chairman suggested that the matter be laid on the table
with the understanding that Doctor Rowland would send to each member
of the Board a copy of the resolution as he proposed it for approval.
B.
Participation of State Teachers Colleges in
Promotion of Aeronautics
The Chairman reported that the matter had been raised with
the Attorney General's Office and that a reply was expected within a
brief time.
C.
Courses for Special Fields for Certification
The question was raised concerning the interuse of core
subjects in the regular curriculum for certification in special fields
-1385-
Doctor Steele stated that the courses required in the regular
curriculum, for example, "Art Appreciation", would not be acceptable for
certification in the field of Industrial Arts. He pointed out that the
understanding had been that the courses required in the regular curriculum
would not count toward certification in the special fields.
On motion by Doctor Ade, seconded by Doctor Rowland, it was
voted that the matter be referred to the Curricular Revision Committee
for consideration.
D.
Fields for Specialization for Graduates of Elementary Curriculum
E.
Revision of Psychology Requirements
F.
Flexibility in the Fields of Concentration
G.
Increased Requirements in the Field of English
Inasmuch as these questions were raised at the meeting of the
Deans of Instruction, they were referred to the Curricular Revision
Committee for Study and report at a subsequent meeting of the Board*
H.
Soil Conservation Service Program
The Chairman asked that Doctor Klonower send a copy of the
letter that had been received from Mr. W. W, Reitz, In Charge of Educational Relations, Region I, Soil Conservation Service, of the United
States Department of Agriculture, to each member of the Board.
The item was removed from the Docket.
I.
Testing Program (Not included on Docket)
It was pointed out that the members of the Board had agreed
to give the testing program as set forth on pages 1371 and 1372 of the
minutes of the meeting of the Board held July 25, 1939, before March 1,
1940.
It was also pointed out that if the tests are to be machine scored,
the Presidents should be very careful in ordering the tests to indicate
that they are to be machine scored.
In March the results of the testing program should be tabulated
and sent to the Department of Public Instruction.
J.
Requisitions (Not included on Docket)
Dr. Donald P. Davis, Director, Bureau of Administration and
Finance, appeared before the Board.
Doctor Davis urged the members of the Board to indicate the
competitive bids on requisitions covering orders under $10.00 * as well as
on all other orders. He pointed out that if it is physically impossible
for the institutions to receive bids on orders under $10.00, the reason
why it was impossible should be indicated on the back of the requisition.
-1386-

The Chairman stated that the members should get bids in writing
v.hy it is impossible.
and if they cannot to tell
K.
Galvanized Iron Coal Sample Cans (Not included on Docket)
Doctor Davis read to the members of the Board a memorandum which
the Department had received from Mr. George M. Estep, Acting Director,
Bureau of Standards, with reference to the use of standard containers or
receptacles for use by the institutions in forwarding samples of both
Anthracite and Bituminous coal for laboratory test.
The U. S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Mines, has
adopted as a standard a galvanized iron coal sample can with galvanized
iron body, bottom and top fitted with screw type tin plate caps, V.Tien
purchased in lots of 1,000 or more cans, the cost is approximately 25^
each. It was pointed out that the cans would prove an economical
investment in that they would not only provide uniform standard samples
as to size and quantity, but would materially reduce the cost of mailing
on each and every sample submitted. These cans could be used over and
over again in the sampling of coal as they would be returnable to the
institutions from which they were received.
The memorandum further suggested that all institutions adopt
standard riffle buckets for use in reducing coal samples after the
composite sample has been crushed. Two buckets are required, the coal
being poured from one bucket over the riffles of the other bucket and
reversing this procedure until the composite sample, after crushing,
has been reduced to the desired proportion for these laboratory samples.
The price per pair of buckets is approximately $30.00.
On motion by Doctor Rowland, seconded by Doctor Steele, it
was voted that from a point of view of efficiency and cooperation the
State Teachers Colleges approve the plan as suggested and participate
in the use of the standard galvanized iron coal sample cans and riffle
buckets for the purpose of preparing and forwarding samples of both
anthracite and bituminous coal for laboratory tests.
L.
Equipment for New Buildings (Not included on Docket)
The Chairman stated that he had a conference with Captain
Rowlands, Secretary of Property and Supplies, with reference to the
equipment for the new buildings and that he was informed that the lists
for new equipment had been cleared. He urged the members of the Board to
cooperate with Property and Supplies for the protection of the new
buildings inasmuch as the State has accepted all buildings and is paying
rent for them.

The Deans and those present were introduced.
Introductory remarks
by Doctor Kriner included appreciation for the cooperation of the Deans, a
brief description of the operations of the Office of Teacher Education and
Certification, and the reason why cases requiring special attention should
not be handled in routine fashion.
1.
CERTIFICATES:
(a)
State Standard Limited: two and three year; renewal problems.
The regulations indicate that students who began their teacher
education in an elementary curriculum prior to January 1, 1937 may be issued
two year state standard limited certificates; if started between January 1,
1937 and February 1, 1939 may be issued three year state standard limited
certificates; and if started after February 1, 1939 only provisional college
certificates.
In discussion Dean Walsh observed that starting in a music curriculum
in 1933 was not a basis for a two year certificate.
All agreed with Dean
Doughton that starting in the first year general curriculum of the teachers
colleges, but not special curriculums, was similar to entering an elementary
curri culum.
Dean McClelland asked how many elementary credits should be
permitted as electives when the student is enrolled in the secondary
curriculum.
If too many elementary subjects are permitted as electives,
not enough subject matter will be given to the elective fields for
competency. Consensus of opinion favored a competent teacher instead of
too wide spread for certification purposes. Beginning teachers should be
well prepared for one field only.
Dean Siedle asked if a person who held either a normal school
certificate or a state standard limited certificate valid for elementary
subjects and special classes (mentally retarded) and who was being issued
a provisional college certificate could have both elementary subjects and
special classes added to the college certificate. Doctor Williams replied
that the only fields added to a college certificate are those in which the
requirements are met as in effect at the time the college certificate is
issued.
The question was asked whether "special classes" may be added to
Dean Andruss thought that subjects
a state standard limited certificate.
may not be added to a state standard limited certificate. It was pointed
out that originally there was no intention of extending the state standard
limited certificate to any other field. However, the regulations for
special classes ^bate that any standard certificate valid for the elementary
schools may be extended to include the mentally retarded. There is a
technicality involved which cannot be escaped. It was decided that it would
do less harm to extend such certificates, but students with state standard
limited certificates should be encouraged to complete their degrees before
they seek certification in special education.
(b)
College Certificates:
(1)
Specialization in elementary field.
Bulletin 153, Teacher Education Curriculums, was distributed.
The Deans were referred to page thirteen of this bulletin.
"The electives
in the first two years shall consist of such approved courses as will meet
the needs of the student's future program of studies."
"The electives in
the last two years shall be selected with reference to the field of service
for which the teacher is preparing."
B&ectives for Group I, Group II, and
Group III are indicated. The action of the Board of Presidents, pages
1128-29, 1936-37 and page 1264, 1938-39 was noted.
For specialization in
the Kindergarten-Primary group the student must complete courses in Kindergarten-Primary Theory and Pre-School Child; for specialization in the
Intermediate group, the student must complete courses in Civic Education
and Teaching of Arithmetic; and for specialization in the Rural group, courses
in Rural School Problems and Rural Sociology shall be completed.
Must a
student select one of these three groups for specialization, and must there be
specialization, appeared to be questions in the minds of the Deans.
Six
Deans felt it was necessary for a student to specialize in one of the three
groups in elementary education and seven thought it was not necessary.
It was
pointed out that the individual who wanted to specialize in the KincergartenPrimary group should take the two courses marked with an asterisk as basic and
other elective courses which apply specifically to the field.
-2-
Dean Doughton observed that last year the Deans had been advised
that the marking of specialization on the certificate wa.s merely for the
benefit of superintendents, advising them that the student had a particular
interest in some certain field. He was assured that the certificate would
still be valid for the elementary grades. Discussion followed relative to
a student who has ability in speech or library completing certain courses
in those special fields and having written on his certificate, "valid for
f
the subjects of the elementary school, having specialized in speech' or
library'
The responsibility of trying to prepare the student in the best
possible way for teaching in the elementary schools should be placed on
the Dean. The attempt to liberalize the whole curriculum program should
result in the use of the electives for better elementary or better secondary
teachers,
The Deans felt that students without teaching experience should
have a special field of service, but for the teachers in service who have
had many courses under the old curriculum leeway should be permitted in the
electives for the elementary curriculum*
Dean Naegle asked what would be put on the certificate if the
student had completed the basic courses for both the kindergarten-primary
and the intermediate specialization. Dean McClelland was of the opinion
that this was where straight elementary without specialization should be
used.
Doctor Kriner agreed with Dean McClelland, stating that to put both
specializationson the certificate would merely be superfluous since the
two courses do not constitute specialization.
There appeared a general
feeling that a revision in the specialization for the kindergarten, with
possibly the inclusion of the nursery group, might be wise.
(2)
Course arrangement for an extension to include special fields.
Mimeographed sheets giving the requirements for certification in
the various special fields were distributed.
Doctor Williams stated that
each of these sheets indicated the advancing minimum standards for
certification in each of the special fields starting September 1, 1939.
Fundamentally the certification basis is the same except that the minimum
number of credits for extending a certificate to include a special field
is advancing.
Doctor Ackley, Acting Superintendent of Public Instruction^
expressed his appreciation for being able to meet with the Deans and was
especially glad to note their aims on the docket for the meeting. He
noticed that they were working on one of the most vital things in any
program of teacher education, the curriculum and curriculum activities*
(3)
Is there need for revision in requirements for extending
the elementary certificate to include the secondary field?
Mimeographed statements governing the requirements for elementary
and secondary certification were distributed. At the present time the
elementary college certificate is extended to include secondary subjects on
the basis of thirty semester hours: six semester hours of student teaching
-3
on the secondary level, six semester hours of professional subjects on the
secondary level, and eighteen semester hours in the teaching field desired.
Several Deans thought more professional courses in secondary education
should be offered.
(c)
What consideration may be given to holders of the elementary
certificate when a new junior high school is organized?
Copies of certain interpretations relative to the validity of
teaching certificates were distributed. The organization of new junior
high schools may crowd out certain teachers in the elementary field and
require more teachers with secondary certification. The elementary teachers
who hold standard or normal school certificates are not qualified for
secondary teaching without completing a degree. A number of elementary
teachers who hold college certificates will be taken care of under Part
Three of the interpretations.
Dean Siedle asked whether a person holding a college certificate
valid for elementary subjects who was teaching the elementary subjects in
grades seven and eight of a junior high school would receive an elementary
or a secondary salary.
The School Business Office gave the following answer:
"Any teacher in a junior high school who is properly certificated to teach in
a senior high school is to have the senior high school schedule, and vice versa."
(d)
How shall small high schools secure certificated teachers in
special fields?
Three possible ways for small high schools to secure certificated
teachers in special fields were suggested:
1.
2.
3.
Additional preparation
Consolidation of small schools
Emergency certificates
Copies of emergency certificate regulations were distributed.
The matter of the amount of extension courses that may be accepted
was discussed and the following statement from the Minutes of the Meeting of
the Board of Presidents, March 15, 1935 read:
"On motion of Doctor Miller,
seconded by Doctor Rohrbach, it was voted that the present requirement of
twenty semester hours of work that are permissible in extension be increased
to the standard of the American Association of Teachers Colleges;
namely,
twenty-five percent of the courses included in a curriculum may be taken in
extension) tha.t is for teachers in service only."
Adjournment at 12:30 for lunch.
(e)
Reconvened at 1:45.
Extension of a certificate to include the elementary field.
Copies of certain objectives which should be kept in mind in the
education of an elementary teacher were distributed. They were:
-4-
1.
2.
3.
4.
Have a rich cultural background,
Know child psychology and child life.
Be familiar with the use of the materials and the syllabi for
the subjects as prescribed for the elementary school in
Section 1607 of the Pennsylvania School Laws.
Have meaningful experiences with elementary school activities
and the elementary school organization.
In discussion it was noted &hat core subjects may not be used as part of
the thirty semester hours for the extension of a college certificate.
Application blanks used for administrative certificates were
distributed and it was pointed out that the Dean of the graduate school
is made responsible for saying that the applicant has met the objectives as
set up for the particular type of certificate in which he may be interested.
This procedure is similar to that which may eventually be carried out for
all curriculums.
2.
CURRICULUM
(a)
.
Attempt to improve the elementary curriculum in all colleges.
Copies of Council regulations for certification after February 1,
1939 were distributed.
After February 1, 1939, those persons who begin
their work in elementary education must work toward the completion of an
approved four year degree curriculum. An attempt is now being made to have
Institutions
all elementary curriculums reviewed, revised, and approved.
without the proper curriculum should not be permitted to submit graduates
for elementary certification. A meeting of representatives of all
institutions which have been offering satisfactory elementary curriculums
is being planned for this fall*
(b)
The use of Bulletin 153, "Teacher Education Curriculums."
The Bulletin was prepared from the official Minutes of the Meetings
of the Board of Presidents.
The Deans were referred to a letter of January 24,
1939 in which they were informed of certain changes,
(c)
Problem of fitting in required courses where required credit not met.
Dean Andruss stated that if a student comes to them with a two
credit course they let him take an hour in some other course. Dean Walsh
stated that if the extra credit is to be used in a special field it must be
in that field.
Free electives may in some instances fill in the gap while
in other instances they may not. The Deans should remember: (1) The course
requirements shall be met, and (2) Total credit requirements shall be met.
If a student of the secondary curriculum desires to concentrate in
science after he has spent two years in college and has taken the two years
of science as provided in the core curriculum, what additional science
assignment shall be made for the last two years? This is operating two ways.
Some few schools are using the regular Biological Science I and II and
Physical Science I and II as part of the elective field. The majority are
giving Chemistry, Physics, Botany, and Zoology in lieu of those courses and
than adding other courses in the last two years. The consensus of opinion
seemed to be that the science people should be picked out and given a good
substantial science preparation. Four colleges differentiate the science
for freshmen and ten for sophomores.

(d)
The status of the 1938 psychology recommendation made by the Deans.
Child Adjustment was recommended instead of Pre-School Child since
some felt Pre-School Child overlapped Child Psychology,
Recommendation was also made to consolidate and reduce the
psychology requirement in the elementary curriculum..
Dean Jaarsma made a plea for Mental Hygiene for the elementary
curriculum as an additional requirement. Dean Siedle was of the opinion
that the Dean should not go on record as wanting to increase the requirement
in psychology and that Mental Hygiene should not be in addition to the
psychology requirement. Dean Doughton stated that he made the recommendation
last year and that he is trying to think in terms of what will be crowded out
He thinks there is a great deal of overif more psychology is required.
lapping in all of the psychology that probably could be consolidated.
After
much discussion, the following motion was carried as made by Dean Jaarsma
and seconded by Dean Siedle
"We, as Deans, recommended to the Curricular Revision Committee of
the Board of Presidents the reorganization of the psychology
requirement with the idea of including Mental Hygiene."
(e)
Does the new curriculum underemphasize
"Methods" courses?
Dean Naegle stated that in comparing our certification requirements
with those of New Jersey and New York, those states are still stressing the
"methods" aspect. He thought perhaps our state had swung too far away from
the old methodology. He was still wondering how far we are getting with our
professional subject matter. Dean Walsh stated that this was particularly
true in the Mathematics department at Indiana.
Dean Doughton mentioned that
last year it was decided that reports were to be made for the Curricular
Revision Committee concerning what each Dean was doing with Curriculum
Materials, with the intention in mind that there would be some kind of
uniform set-up for the State Teachers Colleges. Acting Dean Offner explained
the way in which the situation is handled at Edinboro.
Doctor Kriner felt
the Curriculum Materials course presented an opportunity for the Deans to make
a real professional contribution.
3.
ELECTIVES
(a)
;
Must the field of concentration conform to the prescribed list?
May a student graduate in the secondary curriculum if he offers
eighteen semester hours of mathematics which are not in conformity with
those prescribed by the Board of Teachers College Presidents? The courses
may be accepted if they have been approved either by the Board of Presidents
or by the Superintendent of Public Instruction.
The Deans were
referred to page eighteen of Bulletin 153 where it states that in the field
of Mathematics eighteen semester hours are prescribed in the secondary field.
After much discussion, it was moved by Dean Siedle and seconded by Dean
Bristow that the Curricular Revision Committee of the Board of Presidents
study the elective arrangement in the secondary curriculum with the idea of
making the selection of courses over and above the core subjects more flexible.
The motion carried.
(b)
May Fundamentals of Speech be used either in the English or
Speech field of concentration?
At the present time, Fundamentals of Speech is being accepted on
Fundamentals of Speech may be
the same basis as was English Activities.
used for English either in the first or second field of concentration but
not as part of the eighteen semester hours for the second elective field
in Speech.
(c)
Should English I and II and Fundamentals of Speech be accepted
for the English field of concentration?
Oral English and English I and II are accepted from the arts colleges.
Some few years ago English I and II and English Activities were not permitted
as electives for English in teachers colleges but were used for certification.
Dean Doughton stated that every student must take twelve semester hours of
English no matter what his interest or ability and as a result practically
every person can be certificated to teach English. There are few teachers in
high school who are really properly qualified to teach English. On motion by
Dean Doughton, seconded by Dean Jaarsma, it was unanimously recommended that:
"We, as Deans, recommend to the Board of Presidents that they in turn
recommend to the State Council of Education that the certification and field
requirements in the field of English be progressively advanced to thirty hours."
4.
EVALUATIONS
(a)
:
How use core courses for special fields?
A general discussion in practice among the colleges revealed that
competency to do the teaching for which certification is requested should be
the first consideration in accepting courses where students transfer from one
field to another or desire to add a special field to their certificates,
(b)
What is a non-standard evaluation and how handled?
This is explained on pages 150-151 of the Proceedings of the Meetings
A sheet outlining the
of the Board of Normal School Principals, 1926-1927.
procedure to follow was given to each Dean.
(c)
The value of "fifteen units of high school credit" promised to
teachers-in-service with standard certificates or partial elementary
certificates.
Copies of the old statements of credits toward standard certification
for elementary teachers were distributed.
This old notification form was sent
to teachers working for temporary standard certificates.
Some teachers in
service have been disappointed because these were accepted at face value toward
a degree by several Deans.
(d)
When may courses from other institutions be rejected and vhen
accepted?
Courses from other institutions may be accepted if:
The institution is accredited and the work completed in an approved
1.
curriculum.
The quality of work is worthy
2.
3.
They are applicable to the curriculum the student desires to
complete.
5.
REGULATIONS ?
(a)
Can requirements be codified?
How many should be in the catalog?
Most Deans keep all regulations in
(b)
a
systematic way.
Can the Dean prepare a book of regulations and interpretations for
each individual institution?
Dean McClelland stated that when anything comes up in his institution
he keeps a record of the case and its solution. Most Deans do likewise.
(c)
What should the Deans* attitude be toward regulations?
It was agreed that such was a cooperative proposition.
6.
REPORTS
(a)
:
How shall the new October 15 and February 15 report be filled out?
How shall Class II and Class III students be computed?
Copies of the new report blanks were distributed. The new features
and changes were explained and the way to compute the adjusted enrolments was
demonstrated.
(b)
TVhich pupils should be included on page five of the regular semester
report
— Cooperative
Training School Pupils?
The Deans were asked to include on this page the total number of
pupils with whom student teachers come in contact.
(c)
How can we help to get the reports on Faculty Record Cards uniform?
The Deans were advised that the report form for the instructional
and non-instructional staffs in the State Teachers Colleges was being revised.
The Deans should make sure that there are faculty record cards filed for as
many full-time instructors as are included in this report.
(d)
How may Deans plan a program of classes for summer session?
The majority of the Deans record the needs as shown by students in
the current summer session and as shown by evaluations, and plan the program
for the next summer accordingly.
7.
STUDENT TEACHING-
:
(a) Should one semester be
teaching is permitted?
completed at the college before student
The Deans agreed that one semester of work should be completed at the
college before student teaching is permitted. Then Dean Andruss raised the
question as to what should be done about students who come to their institutions
from a liberal arts college to get student teaching during a summer session.
Dean 7.'alsh replied that at Indiana a student has never been given student
teaching unless he oompleted one semester of work there.
-8-
(b)
How may the student teaching requirement be satisfied?
Mimeographed statements governing the student teaching requirement,
which answered this question, were distributed.
(c)
What are satisfactory course substitutions for student teaching?
Most of the Deans were of the opinion that this depends on the
student. Most of them have a good working relation with the Director of
Student Teaching and handle this cooperatively.
(d)
How are projects which are used as a substitution for student
teaching made and followed through in your college?
The Deans stated that supervisors were sent out to follow up the
projects. Most of them were of the opinion that the number of times the
supervisors were sent out depended on the individual.
8.
TRANSCRIPTS
(a)
:
Since transcripts need no pre-approval in the Department for
graduation, how should they be submitted when presented for
certification?
Suggestions for the preparation of transcripts sent from teachers
colleges, along with the application blanks for allege certificates, were
distributed. If these application blanks and transcripts are prepared
according to these suggestions, there will be better understanding and the
certificates will be issued more promptly.
(b)
What progress has been made in getting transcripts, score cards,
and certificates together in order that all may be sent to the
Department at one time for the renewal of certificates or for
making certificates permanent?
Great improvement in this has been noted. A few Deans explained
the difficulties they were having with superintendents in regard to the
submission of credentials but as a whole the credentials are being submitted
more satisfactorily.
(c)
Are we compelled to accept at face value credits transferred from
one teachers college to another?
Credits transferred from one teachers college to another are to be
accepted at face value.
9-
:

MISCELLANEOUS
(a)
How shall the Dean function in furthering professional preparation
of the faculty?
The essence of this discussion was as follows:
The Dean and President have numerous means of attack.
a sincere conference with the individual often helps.
Possibly a rating score card should be devised.
Develop pride in the institution and show responsibility the
individual has toward the institution and service area.
Make oral and written reports of visits to school districts
in the area.
Faculty rank should be given further consideration.

6.
(b)
What can we do about the demands for carrying extra credits?
Dean Walsh read the report of the committee of Deans appointed
two years ago to settle the question of extra credits.
It was pointed out
that the Council regulation of one credit per week for certification still
held and that the President should be consulted for the use of extra
credits toward graduation.
Doctor Kriner thanked the Deans for their contributions in making
this meeting a success.
The meeting adjourned at 4:40 P.M.

Report of the Curricular and Credentials Committee
1.
Content for New Syllabi
Doctor Steele, Chairman of the Curricular and Credentials
Committee, submitted the following report:
"RELORT OF CURRICULUM AND CREDENTIALS
COMMITTEE
November 17, 1939
Re:
Content for Syllabi
Minimum statements describing each course in the
the different colleges*
courses and arranged by
to mimeograph these
the colleges so that
core curriculum have bfeen secured from
These have been tabulated according to
subjects. Arrangements are being made
descriptions and to distribute them to
each instructional department may have
access to these course
descriptions.
The committee recommends that each department
study these course descriptions carefully with the purpose of
preparing ultimately a brief composite statement for each
course acceptable to all the colleges.
The committee requests the active cooperation of
all the teachers colleges in the next step of the study which
will be the listing by topics for each course the content
expected to be covered by the course. The committee believes
that only by study can duplications of topics and course
contents be discovered and refinements and revisions made
where needed.
Respectfully submitted,
LeRoy A, King
Q. A. W. Rohrbach
Carmon Ross
Albert Lindsay Rowland
Robert M. Steele, Chairman"
-1391*,
2.
Home Economics Curriculum
Doctor Steele distributed copies of the proposed four
year curriculum in Home Economics. The Chairman pointed out that
this was a uniform course for all Teachers Colleges offering the
curriculum in home economics education. Inasmuch as one of the
institutions had not seen the report and another raised objection
to parts of the report, the Chairman suggested that the curriculum
be reviewed again and a report presented at a subsequent meeting
of the Board.
3.
Courses for Special Fields for
Certlf icat ion
Doctor Steele presented the following report:
"REPORT OF THE CURRICULUM AND CREDENTIALS
COMMITTEE
November 17, 1939
Re;
Increase in Requirements for Certification
The committee has discussed the recurring demands
for more extended training in content subjects to be
taught by prospective secondary teachers.
The committee recommends that the Superintendent
of Fublic Instruction be requested to consider the
advisability of having each certificate issued for the
'secondary field indicate upon its face the number of
semester hours completed by the holder in each field
appearing on the face of the certificate.
Respectfully submitted,
LeRoy A. King
Q. A. V/. Rohrbach
Carmon Ross
Albert Lindsay Rowland
Robert M. Steele, Chairman"
The Chairman accepted the recommendation of the committee
and agreed to consider the suggestion.
4.
Fields for Specialization for Students
in Elementary Curriculum
-1392-
Doctor Steele presented the following report:
"REFORT OF CURRICULUM AND CREDENTIALS
COMMITTEE
Re:
Electives in Elementary Curriculum
The committee has considered this topic referred
to it through the Board from the meeting of the Deans of
Instruction and makes the following Recommendations:
1.
That teachers-in-service who desire to qualify for
the Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary
Education shall complete the core curriculum and
choose electives from approved courses offered by
the college at which the degree is to be conferred.
2.
That students enrolled in preservice preparation for
teaching in the Elementary field shall be required to
specialize in one of the three variants of the
Elementary curriculum Kindergarten-Primary, Intermediate, Rural
and to select electives from the
list of approved electives to be selected as
described in the recommendation following,
—
—
3.
That each President be instructed by the Board to
appoint a committee from his staff to study and
report to the Curriculum and Credentials Committee
not later than January 1, 1940, its findings as to
the courses which should be open for election to
students specializing in each of the three groups,
Kindorgartun-I rimary Intermediate and Sural.
,
Respectfully submitted
LeRoy A. King
Q. A. W. Rohrbach
Carmon Ross
Albert Lindsay Rowland
Robert M. Steele, Chairman"
It was pointed out that the committee recommended the continuance
of the present practice of specialization in the three areas of Kindergarten-Primary, Intermediate, and Rural, but it recommended the preparation
of new courses which in the composite judgment of the staffs of all the
institutions would most likely contribute toward the competency of a
teacher specializing in one of the three groups.
It was further pointed out that this matter might well serve as the
basis for faculty discussions and faculty collaboration.
-1393-
5.
Revision of Psychology Requirements
Doctor Steele presented the following report:
"REPORT OF CURRICULUM AND CREDENTIALS
COMMITTEE
November 17, 1939
Re:
Revision of Psychology Requirements
The committee believes that the most constructive
method of approaching a revision of the psychology requirements
is to request each college to have its psychology and education
instructors prepare a report for the committee including the
following:
1.
Aims and Objectives of the study of Psychology

Doctor Steele submitted the following report:
"REFORT OF THE CURRICULUM AND CREDENTIALS
COMMITTEE
November 17, 1939
Re:
Increased Requirements for Certification in the Field of English
-1395-
The committee calls attention to its report
recorded May 18, 1939, on page 1354 and corrected July 25, 1939,
on page 1363, of the Proceedings of the Board of Teachers College
Presidents.
The committee believes that no special regulations
should be made by this Board affecting certifications of teachers
college graduates that do not equally apply to graduates of other
institutions. The committee again calls attention to the wide range
of courses available to the prospective teacher of English and the
freedom each college has in offering these courses.
The committee recommends that an additional elective
course be approved and offered as follows:
The Eighteenth Century
3-3
This course to include a study of the writings of such literary
figures as Pope, Dryden, Addison, Steele, Swift, Johnson, Goldsmith,
Sheridan, Congreve Wycherly, Defoe, Pepys Burns, Blake, Thomson, etc.

Doctor Steele stated that this report followed requests from
several of the Teachers Colleges maintaining approved psychological
clinics to meet the requirements for certificates to act as public school
psychologists and public school psychological examiners,.
Questions were raised concerning the 45 clock hours recommended
in the report inasmuch as eighteen semester hours are the basis for all

Ranking of Faculty Members
Doctor Miller, Chairman of the Budget Committee, submitted the
following report:
"RETORT OF BUDGET COMMITTEE
Re:
Ranking of Faculty Members
trior to the meeting of the Budget Committee, questionnaires
were sent to each president asking for his reaction regarding the former
proposals for the ranking of faculty members. The replies showed such a
divergence of opinion that the committee decided to recommend the
following:
1.
In view of recent studies made on the question of instructional staffs of State institutions, that a detailed study
be made of such investigations.
-1397-
.
2.
The committee believes that a phase of its problem
which is worthy of consideration is the creation
of a further classification in the salary schedule
under the title of "Graduate Assistant".
3.
The committee recommends further that, in order
to make such study as seems desirable, the problem
should be considered for a year. We, therefore,
recommend that the question of Banking of Faculty
Members be removed from the Docket for the present.
Respectfully submitted,
Lester K. Ade
Leslie Pinckney Hill
Charles S. Swope
Landis Tanger
Charles S. Miller, Chairman"
The Chairman of the Board pointed out that it was a question of
whether or not the Board wanted a ranking system.
Inasmuch as it appeared to be the consensus that the question
should not be removed from the Docket for the present, it was moved by
Doctor King and seconded by Doctor Miller that the Budget Committee bring
in a report at the next meeting in line with the suggestions made at the
meeting. The motion carried and it was so voted .
C.
Report of Dr. Ross re "Marking Systems"
Doctor Ross reported that he had sent a copy of the study on
marking systems to each president with the request that it be reviewed
carefully and suggestions submitted to him.
The Chairman of the Board stated that he had read the report
carefully and believed it to be deserving of careful study.
It was agreed that the Chairman of the Board should appoint a
committee of three to work with Doctor Ross and present a criticism of the
report

Reports from the Attorney General's Office
Honorable George J. Barco, Deputy Attorney General, Department
of Justice, appeared before the Board,
1,
Possibility of Providing Liability Protection
The question had been raised with the Department of Justice concerning the liability which the State Teachers Colleges would incur if a
spectator were injured while attending an athletic contest in which the
colleges participated,
-.1398-
.
Mr. Barco stated that his answer was based on two legal principles:
1.
The State Teachers Colleges are part of the State
Government and are State Agencies. As such, no
one can sue the Commonwealth without the
Commonwealth's consent.
2.
The Supreme Court states that when one participates
in a sport, one assumes all risks incident to that
sport
Mr. Barco stated that the Attorney General concurred in the judgment that there is no liability on the part of the colleges.
2
Report of Play Production Material
.
"ith reference to the report on play production material, Mr. Barco
stated that he had not gone into this matter and asked that the specific
questions with reference to the use of play materials be submitted to him for
study.
Use of Teachers Colleges fcr Promotion of Aeronautics
3.
With reference to this question, Mr. Barco stated that as he understood it, the instructor and the equipment necessary are furnished by the
Federal Government and the colleges furnish only the room. He pointed out
that the Acts that created the colleges provided that they were created for
the purpose of preparing teachers and that the Board of Presidents of the
State Teachers Colleges, with the approval of the Superintendent of Public
Instruction, had within its power the right to formulate the educational
policies of the State Teachers Colleges. He stated that there would be no
objection to the development of a course of study in aeronautics if the
Board saw fit to develop such a course*
Mr. Barco further pointed out that a student taking this course
would assume all risks incident to the course and that there would be no
liability on the part of the college if a student should become injured or
killed. He suggested that a release be prepared which would be signed by
both students and parents.
On motion of Doctor Steele, seconded by Doctor King, it was voted
that the program in aviation training as set forth in a communication from
Mr. Robert H. Hinckley, Chairman, Civil Aeronautics Authority, Washington,
D.C., be made available as a part of the approved curriculum program in such
State Teachers Colleges as may be approved by the Superintendent of Public
Instruction.

Re: Uniform Admission Blank
The committee has adapted the uniform admission

Report of the Committee on Publications
The Chairman of the Board reported that some months ago when he
was chairman of the Committee on Publications, he had taken up with
Doctor Logan the possibility of developing a financial unit of control for
publications and that Doctor Logan had stated h« would be glad to talk to
him about the matter. The Chairman of the Board further reported that
following his appointment as Superintendent of Public Instruction, he had
asked Doctor King to discuss the matter with Doctor Logan.
The Chairman of the Board stated that he would turn over to Doctor
King his complete file on the subject of publications in order that Doctor
King might become familiar with the background of the situation and take up
the matter with Doctor Logan.

Report of the Committee re "Service Areas"
Doctor Rowland, Chairman of the Committee re "Service Areas",
submitted the following report:
"REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON SERVICE AREAS
TO THE BOARD OF PRESIDENTS
November 17, 1939
The last report of the Service Area Committee was under date of
March 17, 1939, at which time the Committee restricted its report to the
question of de-limiting the service areas in the special fields. Two
alternative suggestions were made to the Board, and spread upon the minutes,
that careful study be made of the suggestions and that further discussion be
developed at the next meeting of the Board.
Your Committee held a full day's session on November 2. Present:
Presidents Chandler, LaRue Rowland, Swope. Absent: President Ross. Doctor
Klonower, the Secretary of the Board, met with the Committee.
,
The Chairman presented a statement concerning the service area
policy which developed a sharp difference of opinion among the members of
the Committee regarding the relationship of recruiting to the service areas.
Messrs. Chandler and LaRue contended that inasmuch as the colleges draw the
largest proportion of their student body from their own service area, the
size of the service area would be reflected in the size of the student body
and the influence of the college correspondingly affected.
1405-
The other members of the Committee took the position that
inasmuch as all teachers colleges draw students from beyond the
boundaries of the service area, the service area should be determined
largely by ease of communication with the college campus and by the
facilities of the college to render professional service, and should
The service area should comprise
not represent a recruitment area.
school
districts
for whom the college would render
those schools and
district professional advice and counsel, would lend instructional
materials, hold professional meetings, provide demonstration of
instructional techniques, etc.
After further discussion the following statement was, I
believe, the sense of the Committee: * The service area is a geographical
section, determined by its ease of access to the college and by the
ability of the college to render professional assistance to its schools.
In this area the college has its major interest. To this area it
confines its efforts to inform high school students of the opportunities
lying in the teaching profession, and to this area it limits its professional assistance to the public schools.'
-
Four major problems face the Committee:
1.
2.
3.
4.
a determination of the ethical procedures which should control
each college in relation to its service area and to the service
areas of other colleges
a further definition and listing of the professional services
which a college might be expected to render in its area
a reconsideration of the present service area boundaries.
(At this point it was the feeling of the Committee that the
matter of reallocation of boundaries should be discussed by
the Board for the information of the Committee. Dr. LaRue took
the position that the original code areas set up in Section 2001
of the school code should be the service areas rather than the
present service areas.)
the determination of the larger service areas in the special fields.
(Discussion developed at this point that where a college by reason
of a special curriculum has an enlarged service area its influence
tends to conflict with that of other colleges whose specifio
service areas it invades by its special field of interest. The
Committee was unable for the present to resolve this difficulty.)
It was the feeling of the Committee that the Chairman should
present in this report, especially for the benefit of those presidents
who have joined the Board since 1925, a statement concerning the origin
of the service areas.
In the early years of the Finegan administration it appeared
that the normal school districts set forth in the code were substantially
without function, as under the law there was no specific limitation laid
upon any of the normal schools by reason of these districts. It was,
however, strongly felt that each normal school should become a center for
professional service for the area surrounding it, and under the direction
of the Superintendent of Public Instruction and with the approval of the
Board of Normal School Principals, the Department of Public Instruction
proceeded to develop geographical areas around each of the then thirteen
:
-1406-
State Normal Schools on the basis of railroad and highway communication, density of population and existing facilities for service
at the normal school.
No change in these area lines has been made since their first
determination with, I believe, the exception of that portion of
Lycoming County lying south and west of the Susquehanna River which
was very shortly after the first division taken from the Mansfield
service area and attached to that of Lock Haven. A further exception
appears in the published maps dividing Blair County between Indiana and
Lock Haven, although I can find no record of this division in any of
the printed statements of the service areas, and have therefore
assigned all of Blair County in this report to the service area of
Lock Haven. The question now arises - shall these service areas be
reestablished along different lines, and if so, what shall determine
the change?
The Committee submits herewith for the consideration of the
Board a statement of the present service areas with the populations
revised as of the 1930 census, the original populations having been
based upon the 1920 census. The cities of Pittsburgh and of Philadelphia
which would normally fall respectively in the service areas of Slippery
Rock and of West Chester have been omitted from these lists of populations.
The Committee gave considerable thought to this matter and were
again of the opinion that a discussion by the Board would be helpful in
resolving this point. While there are at present no public teacher
education institutions either in Pittsburgh or in Philadelphia and
while these cities will undoubtedly draw in substantial measure from
the State Teachers Colleges for their supply of teachers, there is also
maintained in each of these cities an elaborate supervisory and professional service system abetted by the universities situated in these
cities which changes sharply the relationship between these cities and
the State Teachers Colleges as contrasted with the relationship prevailing elsewhere in the State.
The Chairman of the Committee was also instructed to present a
suggested division of the State for the larger service areas required
for the special fields.
Such a division is tentatively offered herewith.
The Committee requests instruction from the Board of Presidents
as to its further procedure*

It was pointed out that this report should be considered tentative
and in no way final.
The Chairman suggested that the matter be continued on the Docket.
He urged that the report of the committee be studied carefully by the
members of the Board and recommendations and criticisms submitted to the
chairman of the committee so that a specific recommendation might be submitted at the next meeting of the Board.

Report of the Committee re "Purchase of Secondary
School Lists"
Doctor Rowland, Chairman of the Committee re "Purchase of
Secondary School Lists", submitted the following report:
"REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON PURCHASE OF LISTS
OF SENIOR STUDENTS
November 17, 1939
To the Board of Teachers College Presidents:
At the meeting of the Board of Presidents on Thursday, May 18,
by Dr. Ade consisting of Presidents
1939,
Noonan, Rohrbach and Rowland, Chairman, to discuss the case of the
teachers colleges with the Pennsylvania Branch of the National Education
Association, Department of Secondary School Principals.
a committee was appointed
It will be remembered that this group of Secondary School Principals had arranged to provide lists of their senior students to be
sold to colleges and other approved agencies who might seek such lists.
This suggestion I believe had been made to this group by Dr. Paul
Cressman after there had been substantial complaint on the part of the
high school principals of the many demands made upon them for such lists.
The Chairman of the Committee wrote Mr. J. E. Nancarrov, Principal
of the VJilliamsport High School and Secretary of the Pennsylvania Branch,
as follows:
My dear Mr. Nancarrow:
At a recent meeting of the Board of State Teachers College
Presidents I was appointed chairman of a committee to consult with the
Pennsylvania Branch of the Department of Secondary School Principals
relative to the lists of high school graduates which I understand have
been prepared by this group and are for sale to those who may wish such
lists.
While fully appreciating the annoyance that must attach to
requests constantly made to high school principals for the lists of their
graduates and other students by various agencies interested in circular?izing these students, it was the feeling of the Board of Teachers College
Presidents that inasmuch as the State Teachers Colleges of Pennsylvania
-1411-
.
are an integral part of the public school system of the Commonwealth and
represent the principal source of supply for the teachers of the public
schools, there should be a relationship set up between these colleges
and the high schools of the Commonwealth which would provide in such
manner and with such frequency as might be mutually agreed upon such
lists of high school students as should receive information concerning
the several curricula available in teacher education for the high school
graduates of the State,
Inasmuch as the State Teachers Colleges are public institutions
and no funds are available for the purchase of any such lists T and
inasmuch as the Secondary School Principals, Teachers College Presidents
and all other administrators in the public school system are equally concerned with an adequate and competent supply of teachers for the schools,
it was the feeling of the Board that it would be proper to suggest that
an exception be made in your ruling, making available these lists to the
State Teachers Colleges without cost.
As Secretary of the Pennsylvania Branch of the Department of
Secondary School Principals of the National Education Association, I am
writing you in the hope that you will give me your frank reaction to the
point of view which I have expressed and if there are others with whom I
should correspond, that you would let me know their names. The committee
of the Board, consisting of Presidents Noonan, Rohrbach and myself, would
be very happy to meet with your group at some time in the near future
that would be mutually convenient.
With kindest regards,
I
am
Very sincerely yours,
Albert Lindsay Rowland
The Chairman subsequently received a communication from Mr. G. W.
Lefever, Principal of the Gettysburg High School and President of the
Pennsylvania Branch, stating that he was scheduling a meeting of the
Executive Committee of the Branch for Thursday evening, October 26, to meet
with representatives of the Board of Teachers College Presidents to consider
this matter.
By this time Dr. Noonan was no longer a member of the Board.
President Rohrbach was unable to be present at the meeting and the Chairman
asked Dr. Klonower to join him in behalf of the Board of Presidents in
meeting with the Executive Committee. This Committee consists of G. W.
Lefever, Gettysburg, J. Ernest Wagner, Johnstown, J. E. Nancarrow, Williamsport, E. A. Gladfelter, York, Horace G. Geisel, Harrisburg and Oliver S.
Heckman, Department of Putlic Instruction. All members of the Committee
were present except Mr. Heckman whose place was taken by Dr. Cressman of the
Department
Your Cnairman presented the case for the Board of Presidents. The
discussion was entirely friendly but the Secondary School Principals clearly
felt that they should not make an exception in the case of the teachers
colleges, and it was further pointed out that three of the teachers colleges
are already and have been purchasing these lists so that my contention that
the teachers colleges were not in a position to buy these lists was heavily
discounted.
-1412-
The Executive Committee did, however, consent to the
purchase of one list to be used by all of the state teachers
colleges, giving permission for the division of such a list to
accomodate the several service areas served by the teachers
colleges.
It is therefore the recommendation of your Committee
that such a list be purchased and the cost divided equally among
the several colleges, the list to be divided in Dr. Klonower^s
office and distributed to the several colleges. The cost is $40.00
less 20% for advance payment, but as advance payment is probably
impossible by our plan of purchase, the cost would be $40.00.
Respectfully submitted
Albert Lindsay Rowland
Chairman"
On motion by Doctor Rowland, seconded by Doctor Miller, it was
voted that the report of the committee be adopted,
J.
Uniform Placement Blank for State Teachers Colleges
Doctor Tanger, Chairman of the committee appointed to study the
possibility of providing a uniform placement blank for State Teachers
Colleges, submitted the following report:
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON UNIFORM PLACEMENT BLANKS
The committee recommends that the Board of Teachers
College Presidents request the Chairman of the Pennsylvania
Institutional Teacher Placement Association to appoint a
committee of three Teachers College placement officials to
cooperate with our committee in the development of uniform
placement blanks.
We recognize that the greater number of placement
forms used throughout the Teachers Colleges should be uniform.
Mimeographed forms may be used to take care of peculiar local
conditions.
Respectfully submitted
Cannon Ross
Robert M. Steele
Landis Tanger, Chairman"
On motion by Doctor Tanger, seconded by Doctor Miller, it was voted
that the report of the committee be accepted with thanks and the item removed
from the Docket.
K.
Organization of Summer and Post -Summer Sessions, 1940
On motion of Doctor Miller, seconded by Doctor Flowers, it was voted
that a committee be appointed to study the question of summer and post-summer
sessions.
-1413-
L.
Affiliation with the Pennsylvania Committee
on Fublic Education
The Chairman stated that if this and similar organizations
requested that the Department have a representative present at their
meetings, he would be willing to send one but that membership seems
inadvisable.
The item was removed from the Docket.
M.
Employment of Administrative Officers in
State Teachers Colleges
Doctor Rowland, Chairman of the committee appointed to study
this question, submitted the following report:
"STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE
Shippensburg Pa.
,
October 20, 1939
To the Presidents of the State Teachers Colleges:
The Committee appointed to report upon the advisability
of providing for salary in twelve equal installments for
certain administrative officers of the State Teachers Colleges
begs to present for the consideration of the Board the following resolution:
"Inasmuch as certain administrative officers have
duties and responsibilities at times when the colleges are
not in session,
"Be it Resolved:
That the responsible fiscal officers
.
of the Commonwealth be requested to permit any of the teachers /]
^
colleges, whose Board of Trustees feels the efficiency of the
college to be advanced thereby, to arrange through appropriate
payroll requisition for the payment of the salary of the Dean
of Instruction on a twelve months basis', the computation to be
calculated for forty-eight weeks on the basis of the present
salary schedule, a thirty-six weeks salary to be increased by
^
one-third of its total amount and paid in twelve equal install- *
ments throughout the year. Where it is desired to employ other
administrative officers such as Dean of Men, Dean of Women,
Dietitian, Librarian, Director of the Laboratory Schools, etc.,
for additional service beyond the basic thirty-six weeks of the
salary schedule, computation will be made on the same basis for
such additional weeks as the officer in question may be employed.

Teachers Colleges are placed with the liberal arts colleges of an earlier
opening date.
On motion by Doctor Miller, seconded by Doctor Rowland it was
voted that the Board adopt the Calendar as submitted by the Calendar
Committee with each institution having the option of selecting whether
or not it should have the longer recess between semesters or the longer

that the members of the Board of Presidents do not accept honorariums for
educational services in Pennsylvania. He stated that the members may,
however, accept expenses, if no expense statement is submitted to the
State for payment.
B
.
Use of Facilities of Colleges by Outside Agencies
Doctor Flowers raised the question of charging fees for the use
of the swimming pool by outside agencies.
It was the general opinion of the Board that where outside
agencies were concerned, the problem involved was one that should be
settled by the Board of Trustees as a matter between outside agencies
and the Board of Trustees.
C.
Late Registration Fee (Not included on Docket
)
The question was raised concerning the intent of the policy
with reference to the late" registration fee as to whether it applied
merely to semester registrations or whether it applied to all payment
periods.
On motion of Doctor Steele, seconded by Doctor Ross, it was
voted that the intent of the late registration fee was to apply to all
payment periods.

Pennsylvania State College, suggesting a conference between representatives
of the State Teachers Colleges and The Pennsylvania State College.

desire was expressed on the part of the Board to cooperate with Doctor
Hetzel* s request for a conference and the suggestion was made that he send

action of the Board.
The Chairman expressed thanks to the members of the Board for
their assistance in advancing the various items upon the Docket. He

items for review and presentation to the Board.

importance of three items that vail appear on the next Docket affecting
the professional work of the institutions, namely:

b.
c.

study by a small committee, followed by a specific, brief, written
reaction by the president to the responsible committee chairmen.

Report of Committee re "Marking Systems"
Doctor Ade, Chairman of the Reviewing Committee on College
Marking Systems, presented the following report:
"REPORT OF REVIEWING COMMITTEE ON COLLEGE MARKING SYSTEMS
The Committee has had one meeting. At this meeting it was
the consensus of opinion of the group that rigid uniformity with
respect to Marking Systems in any of its aspects is undesirable
and impracticable. The Reviewing Committee feels that Doctor Ross
has done a good job in focusing attention on this matter, and urges
individual colleges to continue their independent study and
experimentation.
The Committee questions the advisability of using the
distribution curve in determining grades in student teaching. In
other words, students who get any grade in student teaching at the
lower end of the scale will find it practically impossible to
secure placement.
The Reviewing Committee recommends that a system of honor
points be required, not only for graduation but also for student
teaching, provided however, that it does in no way lower standards
The Reviewing Committee thinks it desirable that
of achievement.
a careful study be made as it affects the superior or gifted student.
-1424-
Since it is virtually impossible to establish a
uniform system for all colleges, and in view of the fact
that examinations are objective or subjective, oral or
written,. 9tandard or comprehensive, and that they measure
not only acquired ability but native ability, it is wise
for all groups concerned to continue within their respective
institutions toward further development in measurement and
appraising the value and ability of the student. Furthermore,
the Committee suggests that a system of rating of personality
traits be studied, especially as it affects student teaching.
The Reviewing Committee recommends that our colleges,
for transfer purposes, adopt, effective September 1940, a
uniform plan of marking which comprises a system of four
passing marks and three non-passing grades. It recommends
that A, B, C, & D, be used for the passing grades and that
E, F, & Inc., be used for non-passing grades -.- E to indicate
conditional failure, F to indicate complete, total, or
absolute failure, and the course must be repeated with no
privilege of make-up, Inc. to indicate incomplete*
Respectfully submitted,
John G, Flowers
Carmon Ross
Lester K. Ade, Chairman"
On motion of Doctor Ade, seconded by Doctor Tanger, it
was voted that the Board adopt the recommendation of the committee
with respect to a uniform plan of marking for all colleges with
the exception of the Cooperative Curriculum at Shippensburg.

Report of the Committee re "Service Areas
Doctor Rowland, Chairman of the Committee re "Service Areas",
presented the following report:
"REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON SERVICE AREAS
TO THE BOARD OF PRESIDENTS
January 19, 1940
Since the last meeting of the Board of Presidents a letter from
Doctor Haas requested each member of the Board to report to the
Committee regarding any questions or objections that they wish to
raise concerning the last report of the Committee. The Chairman of
the Committee has heard from but four members of the Board:
From Acting President LaRue suggesting that the present service
areas remain as at present constituted until measures are taken for a
prolonged study of the situation, and that the special service areas be
left in each case to a committee composed of the presidents of the
colleges concerned;
,
From President Chandler, raising a question regarding the
eastern part of Venango County, asking a ruling as to its allocation.
Apparently subsequent to the first limitation of service areas in
1922 agreement was reached between the presidents of Edinboro and
Clarion and the Department of Public Instruction that that portion of
Venango County east of the Allegheny River be assigned to Clarion.
From President Swope, suggesting that a ruling be secured from
Doctor Haas in answer to Doctor LaRue* s point as to the legal justification for the present service areas in view of the specified code
areas in the law, which ruling was accordingly made by Doctor Haas
under date of November 29, as follows:
"It is my judgment that the
Service Area allocation represents a mutual agreement on the part of
the Board of Presidents and one which it is within their authority to
make ."
From President Rohrbach with special reference to the allocation
of the service areas in the field of Art Education.
In view of the character and amount of this response the Committee
desires to make the following report at the present time:
That the present service areas for curricula offered by all the
colleges remain as defined including the division of Venango County
between Edinboro and Clarion, and the division of Lycoming County
between Lock Haven and Mansfield; that the determination of the service
areas for the special fields be left with the presidents of the several
colleges offering curricula in these special fields until the meeting
of the Board of Presidents in July 1940, with tne hope and expectation
that by conference and correspondence the several presidents may
determine upon mutually agreeable boundary lines for the special
-1426-
service area/limitations as set forth in the report of the
Committee on November 17 will prevail.
The Committee suggests that until July 1940 this item be
removed from the docket.

Planning Conference material for the Cooperative Study of Teacher
Education in Pennsylvania, held October 20, 1939. He reported that

Penn-Harris Hotel, the Executive Committee of this Commission
considered ways and means of raising funds to continue meetings in
different sections of the State for the discussion of the problems
in the field of teacher education.

Association:
"PENNSYLVANIA STATE EDUCATION
ASSOCIATION
Pennsylvania School Journal
Official Organ
400 North Third Street
Harrisburg, Pa.
January 16, 1940
Doctor Henry Klonower
Department of Public Instruction
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
My dear Doctor Klonower;
You will recall that on a number of occasions
-1431-
I
have spoken
to you with reference to the advertisement of the State Teachers Colleges
which appears regularly on the back cover of the Pennsylvania School
Journal. Our Association has been very appreciative of the action of the
Board of State Teachers College Presidents in approving this advertising
which not only keeps the State Teachers Colleges before the school people
of Pennsylvania, but also has been a substantial source of income to the
Association.
During the last two years commercial advertising has been quite
difficult to secure. One of the firms with which we have had considerable
correspondence is Allyn and Bacon. Mr. Bacon, President of this Company,
informs me that it is their fixed policy to advertise only on the back
cover of educational magazines. He further informs me that should the
back cover be available their Company would contract for each monthly
issue from March, 1940 to June, 1941, inclusive.
hesitate because of the long and satisfactory relations that
have existed to raise this question. However, I am wondering if the
Board of Presidents would be willing to accept another preferred position
in the Pennsylvania School Journal. The cost of the different pages is
I
as follows:
Back cover
Inside back cover
Inside front cover
$250 per issue
$225 per issue
$225 per issue
All of these other preferred spaces are now available with the
exception of the inside of the front cover for the month of September,
From the point of view of securing additional advertising from
book companies, I think you can readily see that it would be quite a
stimulus to have a regular page advertisement from Allyn and Bacon. May
I ask that you present this matter to the Board of Presidents at its next
meeting?
Very sincerely yours,
H
.

Gayman
Executive Secretary"
G d
On motion of Doctor Rowland, seconded by Doctor Steele, it was
voted that the following resolution of the Board be adopted and transmitted to Mr. Gayman by the Secretary of the Board:
"Be it Resolved: That the Board of Teachers College Presidents
are very sensible of the pleasant relationship which has long
prevailed between the Board and the Pennsylvania State
Education Association in the publishing of the Pennsylvania
School Journal and in the provision which has been made to
give the back page to the Pennsylvania State Teachers Colleges.
-1432-
The Board fully realizes the difficulties which are faced in
meeting the requirements of the several advertisers and at the
same time filling all the available advertising space to the
best advantage and with the largest income to the Pennsylvania
School Journal. However, the Board is unanimously reluctant to
relinquish the strategic position which we have so long enjoyed
on the back cover of the Journal. For a number of years, our
friends have been accustomed to look to this point for information concerning the State Teachers Colleges and their offerings
to young people interested in entering the teaching profession.
To change the location of this advertisement to another position
inside the magazine, however advantageous the new position might
be, would destroy some measure of the value of the advertisement,
just as a shopkeeper regards the location of his establishment as
one of the intangible assets of his business.
Under these circumstances, the Board hopes that it may be
permitted to continue having the space on the back cover of the
Journal, and it is therefore resolved that the Board authorizes
no change in the present contractual arrangement with the
Pennsylvania School Journal for advertising space for the ensuing
year."
H.
Remarks by the Chairman of the Board
The Chairman of the Board pointed out the advisability for each
President to examine the activities within his institution and to make sure
that these activities are consistent with the philosophy back of the
institutions, namely, to prepare teachers for the public schools.
The suggestion was made that each President know his organization.
Sometime ago a chart of each organization was prepared. This should be
brought up to date and be kept available. This is one of the best methods
of crystallizing complete understanding of the organization of the institution..
It was pointed out that the Presidents of the institutions have
personal contacts with employees, members of the Boards of Trustees, the
community, and members of other State Departments. The suggestion was made
that care should be taken that such contacts, both written and oral, should
be of such a character as not to embarrass the administrative officer. Points
of irritation do arise but there can be no justification for the expression
of this irritation in official communications.
Great care must be taken in the matter of dismissing a teacher
for incompetency.
If a teacher is dismissed for this cause, she should know
it and the records should clearly indicate the fact.
There have been instances
Of teachers recorded as "resigned voluntarily", but it subsequently develops
that the real cause has been dismissal for incompetency.

The Chairman of the Board emphasized the necessity of knowing the
personnel of the institutions. He pointed out the difficulty of making a
satisfactory explanation if the head of an institution could not identify
the employees and indicate the specific work for which they were placed on
the State payroll.
In conclusion, the Chairman of the Board pointed out that each
President should be prepared to justify his actions as a State officer in
terms of the purpose for which the Legislature created the State Teachers
Colleges. The importance of reviewing personal contacts of all kinds,
including necessary relationships with State Department officers, was
emphasized and, finally, the suggestion was made that each President find
out within a week from some appropriate staff member in the Department of
Public Instruction, exactly what maintenance is provided for Presidents.

"REPORT OF FEES COMMITTEE
March 15, 1940
The Fees Committee recommends that the
advance registration deposit be continued as
provided in the uniform schedule of fees, deposits,
and repayments as approved in the 1933 schedule.
Attention is called to the fact that unless
the student has actually registered, submitted the
required admission credentials and paid in part or
in full the registration fees, he is not considered
a registered student.
In brief, if there are no advance registered
students, there will be no advance registration
deposits; if, however, there are advance registered
students then advance registration deposits must be
made,
(Respectfully submitted,
John G, Flowers
Harvey A» Andruss
Lester K. Ade, Chairman"

respectively, which referred to the operation of cooperative stores and
student cooperative organizations.
It was suggested that copies of
these opinions be forwarded to each member of the Board,
It was the consensus that if the Board of Trustees approves

Acceptance of Courses for Post -High School V/ork
Girard College
Doctor Steele, Chairman of the Committee, submitted the
following report:
"REFCRT OF THE CURRICULAR AND CREDENTIALS COMMITTEE
May 17, 1940
Re: Acceptance' of Courses for Post-High School Work, Girard
College
In consideration of the request of Girard College,
through Dr. D. Montfort Melchior, its Principal, that the post
high school year now offered at Girard College be accepted at
the State Teachers Colleges for advanced standing in academic
courses, the Curricular and Credentials Committee, to whom this
-1443-
,
matter has been referred, begs to offer the following
observations:
Education in any professional field, such as
1.
Medicine, Law, Engineering, or teaching requires
not only the opportunity to acquire certain specific
professional knowledges and skills but also the
opportunity to do this in a single institution set
up for this purpose and for a period of time
sufficiently long to secure adequate professional
attitude.
foregoing is true, we should hesitate so to
extend the privilege of advance standing to a point
where the student would fail to acquire this desirable
professional attitude due to a division of his preparation between two or more institutions and to an
insufficient time spent in the ultimate professional
institution.
2.
If
"the
The Committee, however, recognizes that if and as
Junior colleges increase in number and the termination
of general education with the 14th year becomes more
generally recognized as desirable, adequate professional
experience will have to extend.
3,
Therefore, the Committee recommends for the present
4.
that the State Teachers Colleges accept credits for
post-high school work only from such institutions as
may be regularly accredited by the State Council of
Education,
Respectfully submitted,
LeRoy A. King
Q. A. W. Rohrbach
Carmon Ross
Albert Lindsay Rowland
Robert M. Steele, Chairman"
On motion of Doctor Steele, seconded by Doctor Rowland, it
was voted that this matter be investigated further in relation to
the status of such accreditment in other institutions of higher
learning and standard accrediting agencies.
B.
Report from Attorney General »s Office
1.
Report of Play Production Material
Since the matter was discussed informally by Mr. Barco with
the Board at a previous meeting, at which time the members were
-1444-
advised not to use material objected to by the producers, the item
was dropped from the Docket.
C.
Report of Committee on Publications
On motion of Doctor King, seconded by Doctor Ade, it was
voted that the Chairman of the Board be requested to approve the
interpretation of the 1931 Publication Policy to provide, in addition
to the four regular publications, one publication for each approved
special curriculum.
D.
Report of Committee re "Study of Summer and
Post-Suraner Sessions"
There was unanimous agreement that this matter be
on the Docket until the Fall meeting of the Board when
for the current summer sessions would be available for
E.
Report of Testing Committee
1.
Results of Testing Program
Doctor Flowers, Chairman of the Committee, reported that
on the basis of the results submitted by the institutions in connection with the Freshman testing program, it was apparent that there
was a misunderstanding among the members with reference to the report
of the Testing Committee which appears on page 1371 of the minutes of
the Board of Presidents, July 25, 1939. It appeared that only eight
of the fourteen institutions used the tests designated by the committee.
Doctor Flowers stated that if the eight institutions would
use the distribution sheets in connection with the tests, the committee
would be willing to make a comparative study of the data. It was
agreed that such a study should be made.
Three phases of testing procedure were discussed:
(a) Entrance: Three forms of tests are to be recommended
for entrance examinations. The committee is to meet
immediately following the meeting and advise all
colleges of the tests to be used.
(b)
Classification: Each college is to decide which
tests serve most effectively in its program
looking toward the classification of students.
(c)
General testing program: These tests are for the
purpose of developing comparative data. The
committee will report at the summer meeting and
make sjpecifie recommendations as to types of
tests and procedures.

National Teachers Examinations
Doctor Flowers reported progress.
The committee was advised to keep in
developments of the Committee appointed by the

merits.
B.

Nancarrow, Secretary, Pennsylvania Branch, Department of Secondary
School Principals, with reference to the purchase of the lists of high

Approval of the minutes of the meeting of
the Board of Presidents held in Harrisburg, Thursday, May 18, 1939
I.
On motion by Doctor Steele, seconded by Doctor Haas,
was
voted
that the minutes of the meeting held Thursday,
it
May 18, 1939, be corrected as follows:
Page 1353 - Delete the last sentence of the report,
"The Committee admits that even 24
hours is not the optimum preparation."
Page 1354
-
Delete the last two paragraphs of the
report on the Revision of English Requirements and substitute the following paragraphs:
"The Committee admits that even twentyfour hours is not the optimum preparation
for a teacher of English, but the attention
of the Board of Presidents is called to the
fact that it is possible for a prospective
teacher of English to add a second certification field, Social Studies for example,
and still complete forty-four hours of
English plus the required three-hour course
This should give reasonably
in Speech,
adequate preparation for the teaching of
English.
The attention of the Committee has been
directed by several colleges to duplications
in courses listed and to the omission of
certain areas needed by teachers of English.
Your Committee, therefore, plans to undertake a reexamination of the courses in English,
required and elective, and solicits the
assistance of the English fetaffs in the State
Teachers Colleges in making this study."

Revision of English Requirements
Doctor Steele, Chairman of the Curricular Revision
Committee, reported progress.
3.
Home Economics Curriculum
Doctor Steele reported progress. He stated that the
committee felt that no action should be taken at this time with
reference to the Home Economics Curriculum until the two
institutions concerned had an opportunity to study the suggestions
of the committee and to examine the curriculum.
On motion by Doctor Ross, seconded by Doctor Rowland, it
was voted that the report of the Curricular Revision Committee be
accepted as presented,
B,
Report of the Budget Committee
Doctor Miller, Chairman of the Budget Committee, stated
that the committee had met with Doctor Davis and discussed the
matter of restoring salaries of employes of State Teachers
Colleges at the rate of $120 a year until the step on the Salary
Qualification Schedule was reached to which their experience and
education entitled them.
Doctor Haas, a member of the Budget Committee, briefly
outlined for the members of the Board the history of the Salary
Qualification Schedule. He stated that about six years ago the
Salary Qualification Schedule was "frozen." When that was not
sufficient, the next move was to cut all employes ten per cent.
The preceding Administration made one move toward removing that
inequity.
It provided in the Budget sufficient money to remove
the ten per cent cut but it did not provide money to put the
Schedule into operation so far as increments are concerned.
On motion by Doctor Haas, seconded by Mr. Swope, Doctor
Ross, and Doctor King, it was voted that the salary of an employee
which is beloxw the minimum rate of the class, as contemplated by
the State Salary Schedule, may be raised to the minimum of the
class for which such employee is eligible - provided that such
increase shall be at a rate not to exceed one increment per year.
-1364-
Doctor Allen wished to be recorded as voting "no"
because of budgetary limitations at East Stroudsburg.
Doctor King asked whether adjustments could not be made
He
if money were available in the budget of the institution.
stated that he felt the whole matter was based on the distribution
of funds in the individual institutions.
Doctor Allen pointed out that there were a number of
institutions that desired to raise the salaries of their employes
to the level to which they are entitled but could not do so
because their budgets did not permit it. He stated that East
Stroudsburg could not go along with such a proposal because of its
budgetary limitations.
Charts indicating a study of the Average Salaries Paid
Teachers in State Teachers Colleges on a thirty-six weeks basis
were distributed to the members of the Board for consideration. A
copy of this chart follows page 1365.
It was pointed out that on the basis of this study the
average salary of teachers in four year high schools in first
class school districts appears to be more than $700 higher than
the average salary of instructors in State Teachers Colleges.
Doctor Steele moved, and Doctor Flowers seconded that a
committee be appointed to consider the matter of professorial
ranking and bring in a report at the next meeting of the Board.
Doctor Miller raised the question about the plan held in
abeyance by the Superintendent of Public Instruction with reference
to the ranking of faculty members.
Doctor Steele withdrew his motion and it was consented to
by Doctor Flowers who seconded the motion.
On motion by Doctor Steele, seconded by Doctor Flowers,
it was voted that there be called to the attention of the Superintendent of Public Instruction the previous action of the Board with
reference to professorial ranking in the State Teachers Colleges with
the recommendation that a committee be appointed to carry out the
purpose of the recommendation and to study the whole matter taking
into consideration the previous recommendation of the Budget Committee
which had been held in abeyance.
-1365-
Doctor Ackley spoke briefly to the members of the Board on
the matter of allocations. He stated that he did not believe drives
should be made on the emergency fund at the beginning of the biennium.
He called attention to the policy of the Board with reference to the
adjustment fund and the emergency fund and pointed out that if it were
felt wise to change the policy, then the Board might consider the
matter*
Doctor King stated that he felt the raising of the salary of
a competent instructor who is receiving a salary below that on the
Salary Schedule to which his education and experience qualify him was
just as much of an emergency as buying material needs for the institution
Doctor Donald P. Davis, Director, Bureau of Administration and
Finance, appeared before the Board and briefly discussed the matter of
allocations.
Doctor Allen stated that if the institutions could request
allocations from the Aujustment Fund to take care of the much-needed
salary adjustments of certain instructors, he would then like to withdraw his action with reference to the motion concerning salary adjustments and desired to vote "yes" instead of "no".
It was pointed out that the Adjustment Fund", when distributed,
became a part of the regular budget of the institution and was available
for such expenditures as are in accord with the policy of the Board with
the approval of the Superintendent,

Report of Dr. Ross re "Marking Systems'1
Doctor Ross reported progress,

Report of the Committee re "Limitation of Enrolments "
Doctor Flowers, Chairman of the Committee re "Limitation of
Enrolments", reported progress. He stated that the State Department
of Public Instruction planned to make a study of enrolments in the
State Teachers Colleges and that his committee would withhold any
action until such a study was completed.
He stated that the committee was unanimous in the point of
view that no institution should be permitted to grow beyond such a
point that it would influence budget matters. He pointed out that it
was a matter of redistributing enrolments rather than limiting enrolments. He said that the committee believed that certain factors, such
as facilities, service area, major offering •«• such as music, art, et
cetera -, and placement should be considered.

Report of the Committee on Publications
Doctor Haas, Chairman of the Committee on Publications,
reported progress.
-1367-
Doctor Haas called the attention of the Board to the question
of developing a "money control unit" for publications. He stated that
to develop such a "money control unit" it would be necessary for the
committee to secure figures concerning the cost of publications for all
institutions, the number of teachers by counties, and the number of high
school graduates by counties.
Doctor Rowland raised the question as to whether the Budget
Office would regard as an adequate control the setting up of a money
basis or whether they would not still wish to consider the actual
printing situation in the institutions regardless of the money that
might be set aside.
Doctor Klonower stated that he felt the Budget Office was
primarily concerned with the expenditure of State money.
Doctor Steele stated that he was in favor of a money unit
control and that he felt it would be more effective and more satisfactory if such could be worked out.
On motion by Doctor Rowland, seconded by Doctor Allen, it
was voted that the report of progress of the Committee on Publications
be accepted,

Report of the Fees Committee
Doctor Haas, Chairman of the Fees Committee, stated that he
had submitted the following report to the members of the Board of
Presidents under date of July 21, 1939:
"STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE
Bloomsburg
Pennsylvania
July 21, 1939
To the Members of the Board of Presidents:
Below please find the report of the Fees Committee to be
presented at the meeting of the Board, Tuesday, July 25, 1939,
covering the items on the Docket as submitted by Doctor Klonower:
1.
Question of Interpretation and Uniform Procedure re Fees
for Special Curriculums.
The question raised as the Committee understands it is
the amount of special fee to be charged when courses to be
credited in a special field are not taken as part of the
regular special curriculum.
It is the opinion of the Committee that If the course
taken is to be credited to a special curriculum then the special fee
charged should be a pro-rated amount of the total special fee for one
semester.
-1368-
*
,
2-Interpretation of Student Activities Fees
The Committee understands that this question was raised
by Doctor Hill in his letter of June 27, 1939, as follows:
'I wanted to inquire whether there is a rule
limiting the amount one of our Colleges may
collect from each student for this fee. If the
amount is to vary, as it reasonably might, according
to student population, some Colleges seem to be at
a disadvantage.
In addition to this question, Doctor Hill expressed the
hope that all special fees might be abolished. To these
points the Chairman replied as follows:
The Student Activities Fee is administered by the
local institution. There has never been, so far as I know,
any regulation requiring uniformity. Personally, I would
like also if all fees could be omitted.
I confess that
under the present conditions, however, I do not see how
this could be done.'
3- Late Registration Fee
A number of presidents have asked again that this item
be considered.
In order to bring this matter specifically
before the Board, the following resolution is presented:
'Each student registering after the date officially
set for registration shall pay an additional fee of
($•50 to $1) per day until the student is in regular
attendance in accordance with the regulations of the
Board of Presidents, provided that the total amount of
the Late Registration Fee shall not exceed($5 to $10).
The same regulation to apply to approved inter-semester
payments.
4-Pool Fee
A number of presidents have requested that the matter of
a Pool Fee receive consideration.
Considerable additional
cost will be required for such items as personnel, electric
current water, laundry, supplies, etc.
In order to bring
this matter specifically before the Board, the following
resolution is presented:
,
'Each student (who is required to use the pool as
shall pay a
a part of the work in Health Education)
fee of ($3 to $5 per semester).
Respectfully submitted

when permission for late registration has been secured
in advance from the President because of illness or any
other unavoidable causes. The same regulations shall
apply to approved inter-semester payments."

"Report of the Committee on Testing
July 25, 1939
The Committee on Testing recommends the following testing program
for 1939-1940:
1,
Psychological . The Committee is in agreement with the report
of the Committee on Entrance Examinations of May 18, 1939, in
which it recommended the use of the Psychological test prepared by the American Council on Education.
The Committee recommends that all of the colleges use the same
psychological test in order that comparable studies may be
made. In view of the fact that this test will be used for
organization and placement, we recommend that the hand-scored
edition be used so that immediate results may be secured for
classification and organization. Price per copy - $.07
2.
Other entrance examinations . The Committee recommends that
each college be given freedom in selecting other tests
designed to aid in the organization of the incoming freshman
class.

Time . The Committee recommends that each college may
determine the time of the administration of the tests but
in all cases that the testing program be completed by

Results of Program .
That the results of the testing program
be tabulated in such form that each institution may identify
its scores in comparison with the other thirteen colleges
but that in no case may an institution know the scores of
the other colleges.
This necessitates central scoring and tabulation.

Employment of Administrative Officers in State
Teachers Colleges on Fifty-two Weeks Basis
Doctor Rowland raised the question as to whether it would
not be more professional to employ administrative officers on a
fifty-two weeks basis rather than on a thirty-six weeks basis inasmuch
as their duties do not terminate with the end of semesters but carry
through the entire year.
On motion by Doctor Miller, seconded by Doctor Rowland, it
was voted that a committee be appointed to study the problem of the
classification of administrative officers.
F.
Uniform Placement Blank for State Teachers Colleges
It was pointed out that each institution operates a
Placement Service. It was asked whether, in the interest of economy
the Board members felt it advisable to develop some type of uniform
placement form that might be used and printed in bulk in the State
Teachers Colleges,
On motion by Doctor Rowland, seconded by Doctor Steele, it
was voted that a committee be appointed to consider the advisability
of the development of a uniform blank on placement that would represent
confidential information desirable for prospective employes.
G.
Rating Scale for Teachers
Doctor Ackley spoke briefly on Act 274 which amends the
Tenure Act. He stated that when a teacher is dismissed on the grounds
of alleged incompetency, the question of competency shall be determined
in terms of an evaluation of her work through a standardized rating
scheme. He further stated that a teacher who first enters the teaching
profession will be designated as a temporary employe and will be on
probation for two years. A report on the quality of her work will be
made twice a year by the district or county superintendent which report
will include a rating device by the Department of Public Instruction
and a committee appointed to prepare the rating card.
A copy of the minutes of the meeting of the Committee on
"Teacher Rating" held June 22, 1939, follows page 1378 as Exhibit "G".
It was pointed out that the Graduate Schools of Education in
Pennsylvania are now working on a seminar of graduate character for
administrative and supervisory officials on the development of the
techniques of the evaluation of instructional service.
-1374-
It was suggested that in September or October a one day
meeting of the administrative and supervisory officials in the
service areas of the State Teachers Colleges be held at which the
various phases of the application of the amendments to the Tenure
Act be discussed and practical demonstrations given.
Copies of a rating scale for teachers as developed by the
Oklahoma A. & M. College, Stillwater, Oklahoma, were distributed to
the members of the Board.

Affiliation with the Pennsylvania Committee on
Public Education
The following letter from Mr. H. E. Gayman, Executive
Secretary, Pennsylvania State Education Association, to Dr. Clarence
E. Ackley, Acting Superintendent of Public Instruction, was read to
the members of the Board:
"June 23, 1939
Doctor Clarence E. Ackley, President
Board of Teachers College Presidents
Department of Public Instruction
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
My dear Doctor Ackley:
There has been in the process of organization since
early in the spring, a committee known as the Pennsylvania
Committee on Public Education. The last meeting at which a
constitution was adopted was held in the Department on May 25,
At that time the Board of Teachers College Presidents was
elected to Class A Affiliate membership. Doctor Haas attended
the meeting, representing the group of Teachers College
Presidents at the request of the State Superintendent of Public
Instruction, Doctor Ade,
I am now directed by the Secretary of the Pennsylvania
Committee on Public Education to extend to the Board of Teachers
College Presidents an invitation for Class A Affiliate membership
and have them designate the names of two individuals who will be
Class B Representative Associate Members.
-1375-
As President of the Board of Presidents, I am transmitting this request to you. In order that you may be more
fully informed I am enclosing the by-laws and minutes which I
should like to have returned when you are finished with them.
The issue is, will the Board of Teachers College
Presidents accept membership and the names of two individuals
to be presented to the Committee as Associate Members.
I am
assuming that the Superintendent of Public Instruction will be
invited to membership on the Committee and if it is within your
jurisdiction I believe the Committee would be glad to have
you, as President of the Board, designate Doctor Haas as one of
the Associate Members,
Very sincerely yours,
H. E. Gayman
Executive Secretary"
On motion by Doctor Rowland, seconded by Doctor Allen, it was
voted that the matter be referred to a committee of the Board, with
Doctor Haas as Chairman, for study and recommendation at the next meeting of the Board.

Board of Law Examiners were exhibited.
In a communication from the Dean of the Law School of Dickinson
College, Doctor Rowland advised the Board that a statement had been made
that the State Teachers College, Shippensburg was "not an approved
college" by the State Board of Law Examiners.
It appeared from the
record that this Board maintains its own list of approved institutions.

Doctor Ackley outlined the purpose of the meeting. He pointed out that
Act 52 passed by the General Assembly 1937, commonly known as the Tenure Law,
developed difficult problems both for teachers and boards of school directors.
Despite many of the criticisms of the Tenure Act, there was a general belief
that public school administration had been improved because of the Act. This is
indicated in better administration, more discriminating selection of teachers, and
a general tendency to encourage growth in service on the part of teachers. However, both teachers and school board members were agreed that some modification in
the law was necessary in order to clarify procedures for relieving school
districts of unsatisfactory instructional service. There was a general feeling
that competency on the part of a teacher should be the basis for retention and
that incompetency should be the basis for dismissal. A further development of
the rating system was suggested as an amendment to Act 52. The committee was
requested not to think of themselves as representing any section or organization
of the State in the consideration of a constructive program but rather as
representing all interests that have the welfare of the children in the public
schools at heart.
Doctor Henry Klonower, Director, Teacher Education and Certification,
commented on the agenda and the exhibits which had been distributed to each
member of the committee. The agenda follows:

ADJOURNMENT

Before the general discussion opened, Doctor Ackley suggested
that a chairman be nominated by the group, Mr. Best moved that Doctor
Aclcley continue to act as chairman.
The motion was duly seconded, and
carried. Doctor Ackley continued to preside, after indicating that he
would have preferred to have a member of the group selected as chairman.
Doctor Alexander J. Stoddard, Superintendent of Schools in
Philadelphia, was introduced to the group. He expressed the judgment that
the entire rating program should be approached from the standpoint of the
improvement of the service of the individual. He expressed opposition to
a mechanical rating
teachers should be rated as human beings. He
questioned the possibility of rating personality on the ground that such
a quality was too intangible. He preferred to approach the matter from an
entirely objective point of view. Every rating card should be simple in
construction and the attempt made to develop ratings on the basis of
objectivity. Personal appearance should be considered in terms of its
effect and the effect was the important factor to be rated. He called the
attention of the members of the conference to the difficulties of a five
point scale; a rating card that would indicate satisfactory and unsatisfactory
would be more desirable.
—
Doctor Francis B. Haas, President, State Teachers College,
Bloomsburg, stated that during the present summer session approximately
350 teachers enrolled at the College were asked to give their reactions to
a new rating card. Each group at the College was asked to discuss the
revisions to the card and return their comments in writing. He summarized
briefly the comments:
1.
How is the competency of the rater to be judged? Is the
rating to be based on one rating by one person or on a
number of ratings by a number of different persons, and
will the different persons come from a variety of
educational situations?
2.
What are the number and types of cards to be developed?
Is the rating requirement now in operation to be continued
or will an attempt be made to develop a new card which
will take the place of the old one? Would it be advisable
to develop several cards for different types of teacherpupil contacts?
3.
Am I to be judged by what someone thinks I look like and do,
or by what I do for the children and the community?
4..
We want a rating card which will not be "used by some smart
aleck to make us look like fools in court".

Doctor Ben G. Graham, Superintendent of Schools in Pittsburgh,
stated that sfter years of experience with all types of rating cards, he had
reached the conclusion that the most workeble ratings were "satisfactory" and
'"unsatisfactory" .
He emphasized the fact that if the new rating program is
to work the teachers themselves must feel a sense of responsibility in the
development of the program and recognize a feeling of justice in the whole
matter. There must be a confidence on the part of teachers in the persons
who do the rating. The ability to rate a professional employee requires
competence on the part of the person rating. He further suggested that a
teacher's dismissal should not be dependent on the rating of one person.
Such a decision should involve the judgment of at least three comoetent
persons. The underlying philosophy of the whole rating program represents
the preservation of adecuate instructional service for the boys and girls
in the schools.
The cuestion was raised whether the rating card should provide
for a procedure through which teachers might rate themselves, followed by
a conference with the superintendent under whom the teacher serves. Doctor
Graham pointed out that this procedure had been tried in some school
districts and it has not proven satisfactory. Poor teachers rate themselves
too high and good teachers rate themselves much too low.
Mr. John Larkin, a teacher in the Philadelphia schools, suggested
that some consideration should be given to a plan by which other teachers
would rate teachers, and that these ratings be in addition to ratings given
by supervisors or administrators. Mr. Padden. a school director from
Scranton, stated that the principal of the school might submit a rating
that would count as 75% of the total rating, and the supervisor might submit
a rating that would count 15% and the superintendent might submit a rating
that would count 10$ of the total rating given to a teacher. He strongly
expressed the opinion that personal appearance should be one of the qualities
considered in the rating of every teacher. He submitted a tentative rating
card for the future consideration of the group.
Mr. Edwin Cruttenden, a teacher in the public schools of Scranton,
expressed the opinion that if the objective of Act 274 was the improvement
of instruction in Pennsylvania, he uestioned whether such a rating card would
bring about the result. If teachers are to be dismissed for incompetency,
a rating card will be submerged in the jealousies and suspicions among the
teachers. However, if such a rating program will develop a card which is
simple and understood by all who use it, it might serve a helpful purpose.
Senator F. W. Ruth, a school director in Berks County, called the
attention of the group to the fact that tenure was provided to protect good
teachers but that in many instances tenure was protecting incompetent
teachers. Whatever form the rating card takes, it must protect teachers
from political and other interference by establishing a reasonable method
by which incompetent teachers may be dismissed. He then pointed out that
seniority does not necessarily bring to the boys and girls in the public
schools the best teachers. Where teachers are retained purely on the basis
of seniority rights, many old teachers who could take advantage of the
school employees' retirement opportunities would be retained and the better

Miss Sara Walsh, classroom teacher in the public schools of
Philadelphia, pointed out the difficulty in striving to make a rating card
serve two purposes; namely, as a part of any dismissal procedure, and second,

program should provide for a periodical review of the procedure and that
great care should be taken that teachers be brought together to discuss the
final decisions of the committee to be appointed to draft the rating card.
She urged that personality should not be included in the rating scale
because it is a subjective quality. The evaluation of good citizenship is
too difficult a matter to be judged by administrators or supervisors. Such
qualities as progressive teaching should be included in the rating scale.
She developed the point that it would be advisable for teachers to be rated
by other teachers. The judgment of teachers should be sought and their
opinions of the rating scale should be solicited through a secret ballot so
that every teacher might feel free to express himself on the merits of the
rating program.
Doctor Armand J. Gerson, Associate Superintendent of Schools in
Philadelphia, asked the cuestion whether there was a legal requirement for
numerical rating of teachers? If there were no legal provision for numerical
ratings, he then urged the members of the committee to consider the terms
"satisfactory" and "unsatisfactory" as sufficiently descriptive to meet all
the requirements of the law.
It was agreed that since the law does not specifically provide for
numerical ratings, any rating terminology might be developed that would carry
out satisfactorily the intent of the law.
Doctor Ben Graham, Superintendent of Schools at Pittsburgh, pointed
if
out that
each teacher is to be rated twice a year, it would be necessary
for school administrators to increase the personnel because of the enormous
increase of clerical work. This would involve additional expense to school
boards. However, if the law contemplated that only probationary teachers and
those teachers whose work proved to be unsatisfactory were to be rated twice
a year, considerable expense would be saved.
Doctor Arthur Ferguson, Superintendent of Schools at York, expressed
the opinion that Doctor Graham's suggestion was a practical one and in harmony
with the spirit of the law and urged that due considerations be given to this
important thought.
Miss Barbara McGlynn, teacher in the public schools of Wilkes-Barre,
urged that every effort be made to eliminate the purpose of the rating card
being used as a political club to dismiss competent teachers.
3
Mr. D. A. Best, member of the Board of School Directors at East
McKeesport, again emphasized the necessity of devising a rating card that
would be simple in form and readily understood by both teachers and school
board members. School directors are sincerely interested in the teaching
profession and the teacher and they consider it very vital that some adequate
system of rating be set up that will make it possible to reduce instructional
staff because of decreased oupil population, consolidation of schools, and
other causes. He emphasised the fact that the rating system must make it
possible to discriminate between competent teachers who should remain and
less competent teachers who should be dismissed. The good of the children,
the good of the competent teachers, and the consideration of the taxpayers
should be kept in mind in the course of the development of the rating card.
The rating card should be designed so that it will be a true measure of the
good and competent teacher. He suggested that the card should include more
than two ratings, "satisfactory" and "unsatisfactory". A middle point might
be considered so that teachers would be encouraged to acquire the higher
rating through further professional improvement.
Marion R. Trabue, Dean of the School of Education at Pennsylvania
State College, emphasized the importance of the rating urogram to school
administrators and he called attention to the fact that occasionally
superintendents have lost their positions through the rating of teachers.
Repeals from ratings have been taken to court and it has been proved in a
number of situations that the administrators were wrong. He told of his
experience in the development of rating programs in the Army and in setting
up college personnel ratings for guidance purposes. An intelligent rating
program must take into consideration the objective a teacher is seeking end
that the rating must be related to the accomplishment of the objective.
Wherever a teacher is rated "unsatisfactory", the reasons must be indicated.
All terms should be understood clearly by both teacher and administrator.
The fact that recent studies seem to sustain the judgment thst no two
individuals can agree as to the value of another individual makes the development of any rating program extremely complex and difficult.
•
Miss Gertrude Tsber, classroom teacher in the public schools of
Pittsburgh, expressed the thought that teechers would agree with the program
of rating providing the procedure was simple and the Dualities rated
objective. It must be possible to explain to the person rated where the
deficiencies rest. If the qualities rated are objective, this can be done
more easily than where the qualities to be rated are subjective.
Doctor Alexander J. Stoddard, Superintendent of Schools, at Philadelphia, asked the group of consider the auestion as to whether the same
kind of rating card should be used in evaluating the services of teachers
during the probationary period as would be used for teachers who had become
permanent professional emnloyes? He also expressed the opinion that the
rating card should not be looked upon as a device to assist in "getting rid"
of a teacher. The kind of evidence accumulated for dismissal purposes
should be in terms of more efficient or less efficient and such evidence would
permit a school board to retain the more efficient teachers. The teacher's
case must not be prejudiced by the fact that she failed to teach effectively
in an environment which she did not thoroughly understand.
9
Mr. D. A. Best again celled the attention of the members of the
conference that the rating card must serve two -mrposes: provide protection
for the competent teachers, and provide a means by which school boards
may diminish the size of their instructional staff by releasing less
efficient teachers. There must be nothing punitive in the rating card and
every effort must be made to preserve the equities of competent teachers in
the interest of the boys and girls of the schools.
Miss Helen Wilson pointed out that the rating program might be of
more value if teachers participated in the ratings on a broader scale than
they now do. The program must be constructive and provide a means by which
competent teachers can develop a more effective quality of instructional
service.
Doctor Ben Graham pointed out that the fundamental objective in
supervision is discovering end encouraging the strength of teachers.
Wherever a rating card provides a meejis for the recording of such strengths,
it is likely that weak characteristics will cease to exist in the development
of strength, weaknesses will disappear.
—
Miss Barbara McGlynn oointed out that in all the discussion the
implication has been that the rating program applies solely to teachers.
She called the attention of the group to the fact that the law refers to
temporary professional employes end professional employes. This means that
certain administrative and supervisory officials are included within the
rating program. The ouestion was asked as to who is to rate those who rate
the teachers?
At 12:25 P.M., D.S.T., the conference adjourned
for lunch. It was agreed that the group reconvene at
1:45 P.M., D.S.T.
The conference reconvened at 1:55 P.M. D.S.T.
Doctor Henry Klonower, Director of Teacher Fducation
and Certification, presided.
The suggestion was made that a smell group constituting a subcommittee should try to crystallize the opinions and judgments that were
expressed and that this sub-committee develop a rating card which would
include the qualities to be rated, as suggested in the law. The rating
card could then be printed and distributed among the school districts to
determine the strength end weaknesses of the proposed card. It was moved
by Doctor Francis B. Haas and seconded by Mr. G. 0. ^oore, and voted that
Doctor .Ackley appoint such a sub-committee.

Mr. G. 0. Moore then suggested that it might be helpful if all
the members of the conference would send +heir reactions in writing to the
members of the sub-committee, incluaing their ideas for the development of
a rating card. He hoped that consideration would be given to the suggestion
that simplicity in the form of the rating card was desirable. Ba tings of
"satisfactory" and "unsatisfactory" would serve their purpose. The Chairman
stated that it seemed to be agreed that each member of the conference would
submit suggestions that will be given consideration by the sub-committee in
the tentative rating card that is to be developed.
Doctor Armend J. Gerson pointed out that it might be desirable if
some study were given to the weighting of the qualities to be rated. He
indicated that there are times when the total rating of a teacher may be
entirely satisfactory, but some important quality is lacking in the teacher.
He further suggested that personal qualities should not be weighted separately,
but given consideration in connection with the* other qualities.
Doctor Ben Graham agreed ;rith the peneral procedure that the
sub-committee should formulate a rating card and submit it to the larger
group and the members of the larger <~roup would then submit a written report
including further constructive suggestions.
Miss Sara Walsh urged the members of the committee that if weighting
of the different qualities was to plsy a part in the development of the rating
card, then the greatest weighting should be given to techniques of teaching,
classroom management, and the seniority of the teacher. While pupil reaction
is important, it represented an intangible quality, that did not lend itself
readily to measurement.
President Weir C. Ketler of Grove City College stated that it was
very difficult to measure the details that enter into the composite picture
that is usually referred to as the personality of en individual. He pointed
out the value of maintaining a folder in which the records of many judgments
might be kept. He referred to such a device as the American Council on
Education had developed. In such a folder, periodic reports are filed which
at the end of a term would give a complete record of the experience of the
teacher in the classroom and in the community. This folder might also contain
letters end comments of students and parents, the eopreisment of supervisors,
and possibly some record of the relative achievement of the students in the
classroom. Periodic tests, objective in character, might be given to the
teacher to determine academic achievement. All of these data would be
objective end the personal judgment of the rater would not influence the
composite picture. The rating would be based on specific facts and not on the
unsupported opinion of the person who uses the rating card.
Mr. G. 0. Moore referred to the statement in the law that the teacher
may request her rating if it is unsatisfactory.
11
Doctor Ben Graham said that in all his experience, he has never
been able to convince any boerd of the ability of a. teacher by the sole use
of a rating card but thrt he had elways found it helpful to have sustaining
evidence that comes from periodic observations.
Mr. Leonard Duncen, a classroom teacher in Pittsburgh, expressed
approval of the idee of developing cumulative records for teachers from
which tendencies could be determined. With probationary teachers, such
tendencies would provide en intelligent base for guidance . V'ith such
accumulated reports, administrators might establish more wholesome
relationships vdth the teachers who are to be rated since the teachers
would have a more understanding and sympathetic attitude toward the rating
program. Incompetence is difficult to prove even though it may be evident
to everyone. In other words, the records should be the basis on which the
final rating is made.
Doctor Frederick G. Henke, Professor of Education in Allegheny
College, also emphasized the value of a biographical folder which would be
helpful in the development of an adequate psychology.
He stated that the
folder should contain much material that pertains to background,
progressiveness, techniques, and all the other factors that go to make
an integrated personality
The teacher should be made a partner in the
program so that she will not become susoicious, but rather would understand
the whole procedure looks toward the development of a better educational
program and better educational opportunities for boys and girls.
.
.
Mr. Harvey E. Gayman, Executive Secretary of the Pennsylvania
State Education Association, pointed out that the discussion has centered
almost entirely around the professional aspects of the problem. He
advised the wisdom of including technical legal advice in the deliberations
of the sub-committee since the rating card would serve school boards as the
legal basis on which retentions, suspensions, end dismissals would be
based. Every precaution should be taken to make sure that the card will
be sufficiently inclusive to protect both teachers and school boards. He
suggested that it might be well for the sub-committee to have the benefit
of the opinions of two lawyers.
Miss Ser8 Walsh expressed opposition to the cumulative rating
card and stated that it would have certain inherent dangers. It wculd not
be helpful because the possibilities ere that such, records would be held
over the teacher during her entire probationary period. The rating program
must never become punitive. The more simple the rating card is, the less
opportunity will there be for misunderstanding.
Superintendent J. Andrew Morrow of Bradford County pointed out
that one of the largest problems of the superintendent is the reting of
teachers in service and that the problem of rating nrobationary teachers
was not a particularly difficult one at the present time. He insisted that
the rating card be simnle and understandable. He urged that emphasis be
placed on a rating card that will stimulate growth in service and at the
same time provide a legal basis for the removel of incompetent teachers.
12
Mr. Padden emphasised the point that the lew wss constructive in
character and thtt it had as its primary purpose the maintenance of a worthwhile instructional service through the orotection of competent teachers, but
at the same time, it provided a reasonable plan for the discontinuance of the
services of teachers who are not able, because of personality and academic
background, to give to the children in the community the type of instruction
necessary for the proper functioning of the schools.
Mr. Eest reminded members of the group that the responsibility for
rating teachers was definitely placed on the shoulders cf county and district
superintendents. It is their legal responsibility to cerry out this orogram
as a part of their official duties. This might mean more work on the part of
the administrative officers, but at least it is definite and cannot be evaded.
Doctor Albert Lindsay Rowland, President, State Teachers College,
Shippensburg, stated that the rating card now in use by the Department of Public
Instruction was developed nineteen years ago. Efforts have been made to revise
it from time to time.
Some kind of rating device for all teachers roust prevail
if the teaching service is to meet ell its obligations. Few revisions have
been made to the rating card now in effect although superintendents and teachers
have been asking freruently whether the card has served the purpose for which
it had been developed. He emphasized the fact that merely placing a new rating
card in the hands of school administrators would not, in itself, remedy all of
the comolains that had been made concerning rating programs. Rating cards are
useless if you cannot deoend on the integrity of the person doing the rating.
It must be assumed that those who deal with rating programs are persons of
integrity and that interest in the development of sdeouete teaching situations
motivates the person who rates the teacher. It is necessary to have
qualitative analyses of teachers for statistical purposes. The development of
an sdecuete teacher education program is dependent on the eceumuL? tion of
understandable facts. The rating card gives to those responsible for the
coordination of agencies engaged in teacher education such facts. In commenting
on the suggestions that all ratings should be discussed with teachers, he
pointed out that even though there was a wide discrenency in the two judgments,
the judgment of the official who does the rating would, probably have to prevail.
He suggested that the sub-committee might accomplish considerably more in the
way of a constructive program by reviewing the existing program. This would
establish a starting point from which to grow. The problem would be to imorove
the present rating score card to meet the newer situation.
Doctor Ackley had re-joined the conference during the course of the
afternoon discussion. He pointed out that the interesting discussion had
carried the meeting oast the time set for adjournment. He stated that he would
be pleased to appoint the committee that was to draft the rating card. He
assured the members of the conference that the basic ides that should color all
consideration of a rating card snould be constructive in character; namely, that
a rating program can be developed in the best interests of the public schools.
He thanked the members of the conference for the generous contribution of their
time and effort, and expressed the appreciation of the Department for the wholesome spirit that prevailed throughout the discussion.
The conference adjourned at 3:15 P.M., D.S.T.

Ranking of Faculty Members
Doctor Miller, Chairman of the Budget Committee, called
the attention of the members of the Board to the report of the Budget
Committee held May 14, 1937 with respect to the Ranking of Faculty
Members, which was as follows:
"REPORT OF BUDGET COMMITTEE
At the meeting of the Board of Presidents on May 14, the
following plan for ranking for faculty members was adopted
for the State Teachers Colleges of Pennsylvania:
1.
Each institution shall have a minimum of eight professors,,
2.
To be eligible for the rank of professor, a faculty
member must hold an earned doctor's degree granted by a
graduate school recognized by the American Association
of Graduate Schools, and shall have a minimum of nine
years of experience, half of which must have been in the
public schools. A major portion of the graduate work
shall have been done in the field or department in which
the professor is teaching.

C. S. Miller, Chairman
Budget Committee"
This report has been approved by the Board of Presidents but was
held in abeyance by the Superintendent of Public Instruction.
Doctor Rowland stated that while he was very much in favor of
establishing some form of ranking and while he believed this set up a
very high standard which should be aimed for, he thought there m re
certain requirements in the proposal which would make it impossible
for many of the schools to maintain. He stated that he thought
provision should be made for allowing the equivalent of the doctor's
degree which is permitted by the American Association of Teachers
Colleges.
The Chairman stated that he felt the proper action at this time
would be to recommend to the Superintendent definite action. He
pointed out that at the present time if the Superintendent approves the
action, the resolution goes into effect because the Board had already
approved it.
On motion by Doctor Miller, seconded by Doctor Flowers, it was
voted that the matter be referred back to the Budget Committee for
further study and presented at a subsequent meeting of the Board.

Report of the Committee re "Service Areas "
Doctor Rowland, Chairman of the Committee re "Service Areas"
reported progress.
Doctor Ade raised the question as to whether it was permissible for one institution to establish extension courses in the service
area of another institution.
The Chairman stated that it was his belief that the institutions were limited by the service areas. He suggested that Doctor Ade
raise the question with the Service Areas Committee.
Doctor Steele pointed out that because of the changes in
highways it was possible that the service area lines may need to be
redefined.
Doctor LaRue raised a question regarding extension work in
the special fields, such as health and physical education, outside the
service area of East Stroudsburg.
The Chairman suggested, if possible, a meeting with those
engaged in health and physical education regarding a delimitation of the
service areas.
Doctor Ross stated that he felt a Handbook of Regulations and
Practices in the State Teachers Colleges should be published.
The Chairman stated that the Department would give very careful consideration to the matter of preparing a general index of the
minutes of the Board of Presidents as a Department project. This would
contain all the regulations and practices of the State Teachers Colleges,

Report of the Committee re "Purchase of Secondary

Doctor Rowland, Chairman of the Committee re "Purchase of
Secondary School Lists", stated that he had received a letter from Mr.
LeFever, President of the local branch of the National Association of
Secondary School Principals, stating that a meeting of their committee
was going to be held in October and that a member of the Board would be
invited to be present at this meeting.
Doctor Rowland stated that inasmuch as the date of this
meeting conflicted with another engagement, he had asked Doctor Rohrbach
to represent the committee at the meeting.
Doctor Rohrbach stated that he would represent the Board of
Presidents at the meeting of this group and would present the Board*
cause.
J.
Delivery of Printed Materials to State Teachers Colleges
Doctor Rohrbach stated that he was interested to know whether
the Department could not materially speed up the delivery of printed
materials to the State Teachers Colleges.
The Chairman stated that he would discuss the matter with the
Department of Property and Supplies.

calculated on the basis of the present salary
schedule for a period of forty-five weeks:
Dean of Institution, Dean of Men, Dean of Women,
Librarian (if paid on the instructional payroll),
Dietitian (if paid on the instructional payroll),
and Director of the Laboratory Schools. w
Doctor Rowland pointed out that it was his plan to take
the thirty-six weeks salary, plus the nine weeks summer and post-summer
session salary, and spread it out over twelve payments.
Doctor Ross suggested a fifty-two weeks salary instead of
forty-five.
The Chairman suggested that, if possible, the Board of
Presidents recommend to the Executive Board that inasmuch as the
development of the institutions since the last schedule was approved
by the Board has obviously made necessary a twelve-months position for
the Dean of Instruction, the Executive Board modify its schedule to
make this a twelve-months position and possibly carry with it a
slight increase in salary over the forty-five weeks salary.
It was suggested that the committee redefine its resolution
restricting it to the Dean of Instruction.
Doctor Ade asked that the other positions of Dean of V.'omen,
Dietitian, Director of Laboratory School, et cetera, be kept under
consideration.
-1384-
The Chairman further pointed out that if these positions
were put on a yearly basis, the Presidents would be free to employ
the persons involved on a nine, ten, eleven or twelve month basis
depending upon the needs of the institution.
It was agreed that the matter be referred back to the
committee for further consideration and study.

In a letter to Doctor Haas as Chairman of the Calendar
Committee Doctor Rowland suggested the following revision:
"Begin the calendar for 1940-41 with September 11
instead of September 13 and count September 11
and September 12 as days taught, closing the
first semester after the last class on Saturday,
January 18 and open the second semester on
January 22 instead of January 24. It would then
be possible to extend the Easter recess to begin
after the last class on Saturday, April 5, and to
end at noon Tuesday, April 15.
This would provide
for ninety teaching days in the first semester and
for eighty-nine in the second, including May 23,
following which would be Alumni Day, Senior Day and
Commencement, with the semester finally closing
after Commencement on the 27th of May."
The Chairman suggested that the matter be laid on the table
with the understanding that Doctor Rowland would send to each member
of the Board a copy of the resolution as he proposed it for approval.
B.
Participation of State Teachers Colleges in
Promotion of Aeronautics
The Chairman reported that the matter had been raised with
the Attorney General's Office and that a reply was expected within a
brief time.
C.
Courses for Special Fields for Certification
The question was raised concerning the interuse of core
subjects in the regular curriculum for certification in special fields
-1385-
Doctor Steele stated that the courses required in the regular
curriculum, for example, "Art Appreciation", would not be acceptable for
certification in the field of Industrial Arts. He pointed out that the
understanding had been that the courses required in the regular curriculum
would not count toward certification in the special fields.
On motion by Doctor Ade, seconded by Doctor Rowland, it was
voted that the matter be referred to the Curricular Revision Committee
for consideration.
D.
Fields for Specialization for Graduates of Elementary Curriculum
E.
Revision of Psychology Requirements
F.
Flexibility in the Fields of Concentration
G.
Increased Requirements in the Field of English
Inasmuch as these questions were raised at the meeting of the
Deans of Instruction, they were referred to the Curricular Revision
Committee for Study and report at a subsequent meeting of the Board*
H.
Soil Conservation Service Program
The Chairman asked that Doctor Klonower send a copy of the
letter that had been received from Mr. W. W, Reitz, In Charge of Educational Relations, Region I, Soil Conservation Service, of the United
States Department of Agriculture, to each member of the Board.
The item was removed from the Docket.
I.
Testing Program (Not included on Docket)
It was pointed out that the members of the Board had agreed
to give the testing program as set forth on pages 1371 and 1372 of the
minutes of the meeting of the Board held July 25, 1939, before March 1,
1940.
It was also pointed out that if the tests are to be machine scored,
the Presidents should be very careful in ordering the tests to indicate
that they are to be machine scored.
In March the results of the testing program should be tabulated
and sent to the Department of Public Instruction.
J.
Requisitions (Not included on Docket)
Dr. Donald P. Davis, Director, Bureau of Administration and
Finance, appeared before the Board.
Doctor Davis urged the members of the Board to indicate the
competitive bids on requisitions covering orders under $10.00 * as well as
on all other orders. He pointed out that if it is physically impossible
for the institutions to receive bids on orders under $10.00, the reason
why it was impossible should be indicated on the back of the requisition.
-1386-
.
The Chairman stated that the members should get bids in writing
v.hy it is impossible.
and if they cannot to tell
K.
Galvanized Iron Coal Sample Cans (Not included on Docket)
Doctor Davis read to the members of the Board a memorandum which
the Department had received from Mr. George M. Estep, Acting Director,
Bureau of Standards, with reference to the use of standard containers or
receptacles for use by the institutions in forwarding samples of both
Anthracite and Bituminous coal for laboratory test.
The U. S. Department of the Interior, Bureau of Mines, has
adopted as a standard a galvanized iron coal sample can with galvanized
iron body, bottom and top fitted with screw type tin plate caps, V.Tien
purchased in lots of 1,000 or more cans, the cost is approximately 25^
each. It was pointed out that the cans would prove an economical
investment in that they would not only provide uniform standard samples
as to size and quantity, but would materially reduce the cost of mailing
on each and every sample submitted. These cans could be used over and
over again in the sampling of coal as they would be returnable to the
institutions from which they were received.
The memorandum further suggested that all institutions adopt
standard riffle buckets for use in reducing coal samples after the
composite sample has been crushed. Two buckets are required, the coal
being poured from one bucket over the riffles of the other bucket and
reversing this procedure until the composite sample, after crushing,
has been reduced to the desired proportion for these laboratory samples.
The price per pair of buckets is approximately $30.00.
On motion by Doctor Rowland, seconded by Doctor Steele, it
was voted that from a point of view of efficiency and cooperation the
State Teachers Colleges approve the plan as suggested and participate
in the use of the standard galvanized iron coal sample cans and riffle
buckets for the purpose of preparing and forwarding samples of both
anthracite and bituminous coal for laboratory tests.
L.
Equipment for New Buildings (Not included on Docket)
The Chairman stated that he had a conference with Captain
Rowlands, Secretary of Property and Supplies, with reference to the
equipment for the new buildings and that he was informed that the lists
for new equipment had been cleared. He urged the members of the Board to
cooperate with Property and Supplies for the protection of the new
buildings inasmuch as the State has accepted all buildings and is paying
rent for them.

Committees of Board of Presidents (Not included on Docket)
Inasmuch as the work of the following committees of the Board
of Presidents had been completed for the present, the committees were

The Deans and those present were introduced.
Introductory remarks
by Doctor Kriner included appreciation for the cooperation of the Deans, a
brief description of the operations of the Office of Teacher Education and
Certification, and the reason why cases requiring special attention should
not be handled in routine fashion.
1.
CERTIFICATES:
(a)
State Standard Limited: two and three year; renewal problems.
The regulations indicate that students who began their teacher
education in an elementary curriculum prior to January 1, 1937 may be issued
two year state standard limited certificates; if started between January 1,
1937 and February 1, 1939 may be issued three year state standard limited
certificates; and if started after February 1, 1939 only provisional college
certificates.
In discussion Dean Walsh observed that starting in a music curriculum
in 1933 was not a basis for a two year certificate.
All agreed with Dean
Doughton that starting in the first year general curriculum of the teachers
colleges, but not special curriculums, was similar to entering an elementary
curri culum.
Dean McClelland asked how many elementary credits should be
permitted as electives when the student is enrolled in the secondary
curriculum.
If too many elementary subjects are permitted as electives,
not enough subject matter will be given to the elective fields for
competency. Consensus of opinion favored a competent teacher instead of
too wide spread for certification purposes. Beginning teachers should be
well prepared for one field only.
Dean Siedle asked if a person who held either a normal school
certificate or a state standard limited certificate valid for elementary
subjects and special classes (mentally retarded) and who was being issued
a provisional college certificate could have both elementary subjects and
special classes added to the college certificate. Doctor Williams replied
that the only fields added to a college certificate are those in which the
requirements are met as in effect at the time the college certificate is
issued.
The question was asked whether "special classes" may be added to
Dean Andruss thought that subjects
a state standard limited certificate.
may not be added to a state standard limited certificate. It was pointed
out that originally there was no intention of extending the state standard
limited certificate to any other field. However, the regulations for
special classes ^bate that any standard certificate valid for the elementary
schools may be extended to include the mentally retarded. There is a
technicality involved which cannot be escaped. It was decided that it would
do less harm to extend such certificates, but students with state standard
limited certificates should be encouraged to complete their degrees before
they seek certification in special education.
(b)
College Certificates:
(1)
Specialization in elementary field.
Bulletin 153, Teacher Education Curriculums, was distributed.
The Deans were referred to page thirteen of this bulletin.
"The electives
in the first two years shall consist of such approved courses as will meet
the needs of the student's future program of studies."
"The electives in
the last two years shall be selected with reference to the field of service
for which the teacher is preparing."
B&ectives for Group I, Group II, and
Group III are indicated. The action of the Board of Presidents, pages
1128-29, 1936-37 and page 1264, 1938-39 was noted.
For specialization in
the Kindergarten-Primary group the student must complete courses in Kindergarten-Primary Theory and Pre-School Child; for specialization in the
Intermediate group, the student must complete courses in Civic Education
and Teaching of Arithmetic; and for specialization in the Rural group, courses
in Rural School Problems and Rural Sociology shall be completed.
Must a
student select one of these three groups for specialization, and must there be
specialization, appeared to be questions in the minds of the Deans.
Six
Deans felt it was necessary for a student to specialize in one of the three
groups in elementary education and seven thought it was not necessary.
It was
pointed out that the individual who wanted to specialize in the KincergartenPrimary group should take the two courses marked with an asterisk as basic and
other elective courses which apply specifically to the field.
-2-
Dean Doughton observed that last year the Deans had been advised
that the marking of specialization on the certificate wa.s merely for the
benefit of superintendents, advising them that the student had a particular
interest in some certain field. He was assured that the certificate would
still be valid for the elementary grades. Discussion followed relative to
a student who has ability in speech or library completing certain courses
in those special fields and having written on his certificate, "valid for
f
the subjects of the elementary school, having specialized in speech' or
library'
The responsibility of trying to prepare the student in the best
possible way for teaching in the elementary schools should be placed on
the Dean. The attempt to liberalize the whole curriculum program should
result in the use of the electives for better elementary or better secondary
teachers,
The Deans felt that students without teaching experience should
have a special field of service, but for the teachers in service who have
had many courses under the old curriculum leeway should be permitted in the
electives for the elementary curriculum*
Dean Naegle asked what would be put on the certificate if the
student had completed the basic courses for both the kindergarten-primary
and the intermediate specialization. Dean McClelland was of the opinion
that this was where straight elementary without specialization should be
used.
Doctor Kriner agreed with Dean McClelland, stating that to put both
specializationson the certificate would merely be superfluous since the
two courses do not constitute specialization.
There appeared a general
feeling that a revision in the specialization for the kindergarten, with
possibly the inclusion of the nursery group, might be wise.
(2)
Course arrangement for an extension to include special fields.
Mimeographed sheets giving the requirements for certification in
the various special fields were distributed.
Doctor Williams stated that
each of these sheets indicated the advancing minimum standards for
certification in each of the special fields starting September 1, 1939.
Fundamentally the certification basis is the same except that the minimum
number of credits for extending a certificate to include a special field
is advancing.
Doctor Ackley, Acting Superintendent of Public Instruction^
expressed his appreciation for being able to meet with the Deans and was
especially glad to note their aims on the docket for the meeting. He
noticed that they were working on one of the most vital things in any
program of teacher education, the curriculum and curriculum activities*
(3)
Is there need for revision in requirements for extending
the elementary certificate to include the secondary field?
Mimeographed statements governing the requirements for elementary
and secondary certification were distributed. At the present time the
elementary college certificate is extended to include secondary subjects on
the basis of thirty semester hours: six semester hours of student teaching
-3
on the secondary level, six semester hours of professional subjects on the
secondary level, and eighteen semester hours in the teaching field desired.
Several Deans thought more professional courses in secondary education
should be offered.
(c)
What consideration may be given to holders of the elementary
certificate when a new junior high school is organized?
Copies of certain interpretations relative to the validity of
teaching certificates were distributed. The organization of new junior
high schools may crowd out certain teachers in the elementary field and
require more teachers with secondary certification. The elementary teachers
who hold standard or normal school certificates are not qualified for
secondary teaching without completing a degree. A number of elementary
teachers who hold college certificates will be taken care of under Part
Three of the interpretations.
Dean Siedle asked whether a person holding a college certificate
valid for elementary subjects who was teaching the elementary subjects in
grades seven and eight of a junior high school would receive an elementary
or a secondary salary.
The School Business Office gave the following answer:
"Any teacher in a junior high school who is properly certificated to teach in
a senior high school is to have the senior high school schedule, and vice versa."
(d)
How shall small high schools secure certificated teachers in
special fields?
Three possible ways for small high schools to secure certificated
teachers in special fields were suggested:
1.
2.
3.
Additional preparation
Consolidation of small schools
Emergency certificates
Copies of emergency certificate regulations were distributed.
The matter of the amount of extension courses that may be accepted
was discussed and the following statement from the Minutes of the Meeting of
the Board of Presidents, March 15, 1935 read:
"On motion of Doctor Miller,
seconded by Doctor Rohrbach, it was voted that the present requirement of
twenty semester hours of work that are permissible in extension be increased
to the standard of the American Association of Teachers Colleges;
namely,
twenty-five percent of the courses included in a curriculum may be taken in
extension) tha.t is for teachers in service only."
Adjournment at 12:30 for lunch.
(e)
Reconvened at 1:45.
Extension of a certificate to include the elementary field.
Copies of certain objectives which should be kept in mind in the
education of an elementary teacher were distributed. They were:
-4-
1.
2.
3.
4.
Have a rich cultural background,
Know child psychology and child life.
Be familiar with the use of the materials and the syllabi for
the subjects as prescribed for the elementary school in
Section 1607 of the Pennsylvania School Laws.
Have meaningful experiences with elementary school activities
and the elementary school organization.
In discussion it was noted &hat core subjects may not be used as part of
the thirty semester hours for the extension of a college certificate.
Application blanks used for administrative certificates were
distributed and it was pointed out that the Dean of the graduate school
is made responsible for saying that the applicant has met the objectives as
set up for the particular type of certificate in which he may be interested.
This procedure is similar to that which may eventually be carried out for
all curriculums.
2.
CURRICULUM
(a)
.
Attempt to improve the elementary curriculum in all colleges.
Copies of Council regulations for certification after February 1,
1939 were distributed.
After February 1, 1939, those persons who begin
their work in elementary education must work toward the completion of an
approved four year degree curriculum. An attempt is now being made to have
Institutions
all elementary curriculums reviewed, revised, and approved.
without the proper curriculum should not be permitted to submit graduates
for elementary certification. A meeting of representatives of all
institutions which have been offering satisfactory elementary curriculums
is being planned for this fall*
(b)
The use of Bulletin 153, "Teacher Education Curriculums."
The Bulletin was prepared from the official Minutes of the Meetings
of the Board of Presidents.
The Deans were referred to a letter of January 24,
1939 in which they were informed of certain changes,
(c)
Problem of fitting in required courses where required credit not met.
Dean Andruss stated that if a student comes to them with a two
credit course they let him take an hour in some other course. Dean Walsh
stated that if the extra credit is to be used in a special field it must be
in that field.
Free electives may in some instances fill in the gap while
in other instances they may not. The Deans should remember: (1) The course
requirements shall be met, and (2) Total credit requirements shall be met.
If a student of the secondary curriculum desires to concentrate in
science after he has spent two years in college and has taken the two years
of science as provided in the core curriculum, what additional science
assignment shall be made for the last two years? This is operating two ways.
Some few schools are using the regular Biological Science I and II and
Physical Science I and II as part of the elective field. The majority are
giving Chemistry, Physics, Botany, and Zoology in lieu of those courses and
than adding other courses in the last two years. The consensus of opinion
seemed to be that the science people should be picked out and given a good
substantial science preparation. Four colleges differentiate the science
for freshmen and ten for sophomores.
-5-
i
:
(d)
The status of the 1938 psychology recommendation made by the Deans.
Child Adjustment was recommended instead of Pre-School Child since
some felt Pre-School Child overlapped Child Psychology,
Recommendation was also made to consolidate and reduce the
psychology requirement in the elementary curriculum..
Dean Jaarsma made a plea for Mental Hygiene for the elementary
curriculum as an additional requirement. Dean Siedle was of the opinion
that the Dean should not go on record as wanting to increase the requirement
in psychology and that Mental Hygiene should not be in addition to the
psychology requirement. Dean Doughton stated that he made the recommendation
last year and that he is trying to think in terms of what will be crowded out
He thinks there is a great deal of overif more psychology is required.
lapping in all of the psychology that probably could be consolidated.
After
much discussion, the following motion was carried as made by Dean Jaarsma
and seconded by Dean Siedle
"We, as Deans, recommended to the Curricular Revision Committee of
the Board of Presidents the reorganization of the psychology
requirement with the idea of including Mental Hygiene."
(e)
Does the new curriculum underemphasize
"Methods" courses?
Dean Naegle stated that in comparing our certification requirements
with those of New Jersey and New York, those states are still stressing the
"methods" aspect. He thought perhaps our state had swung too far away from
the old methodology. He was still wondering how far we are getting with our
professional subject matter. Dean Walsh stated that this was particularly
true in the Mathematics department at Indiana.
Dean Doughton mentioned that
last year it was decided that reports were to be made for the Curricular
Revision Committee concerning what each Dean was doing with Curriculum
Materials, with the intention in mind that there would be some kind of
uniform set-up for the State Teachers Colleges. Acting Dean Offner explained
the way in which the situation is handled at Edinboro.
Doctor Kriner felt
the Curriculum Materials course presented an opportunity for the Deans to make
a real professional contribution.
3.
ELECTIVES
(a)
;
Must the field of concentration conform to the prescribed list?
May a student graduate in the secondary curriculum if he offers
eighteen semester hours of mathematics which are not in conformity with
those prescribed by the Board of Teachers College Presidents? The courses
may be accepted if they have been approved either by the Board of Presidents
or by the Superintendent of Public Instruction.
The Deans were
referred to page eighteen of Bulletin 153 where it states that in the field
of Mathematics eighteen semester hours are prescribed in the secondary field.
After much discussion, it was moved by Dean Siedle and seconded by Dean
Bristow that the Curricular Revision Committee of the Board of Presidents
study the elective arrangement in the secondary curriculum with the idea of
making the selection of courses over and above the core subjects more flexible.
The motion carried.
(b)
May Fundamentals of Speech be used either in the English or
Speech field of concentration?
At the present time, Fundamentals of Speech is being accepted on
Fundamentals of Speech may be
the same basis as was English Activities.
used for English either in the first or second field of concentration but
not as part of the eighteen semester hours for the second elective field
in Speech.
(c)
Should English I and II and Fundamentals of Speech be accepted
for the English field of concentration?
Oral English and English I and II are accepted from the arts colleges.
Some few years ago English I and II and English Activities were not permitted
as electives for English in teachers colleges but were used for certification.
Dean Doughton stated that every student must take twelve semester hours of
English no matter what his interest or ability and as a result practically
every person can be certificated to teach English. There are few teachers in
high school who are really properly qualified to teach English. On motion by
Dean Doughton, seconded by Dean Jaarsma, it was unanimously recommended that:
"We, as Deans, recommend to the Board of Presidents that they in turn
recommend to the State Council of Education that the certification and field
requirements in the field of English be progressively advanced to thirty hours."
4.
EVALUATIONS
(a)
:
How use core courses for special fields?
A general discussion in practice among the colleges revealed that
competency to do the teaching for which certification is requested should be
the first consideration in accepting courses where students transfer from one
field to another or desire to add a special field to their certificates,
(b)
What is a non-standard evaluation and how handled?
This is explained on pages 150-151 of the Proceedings of the Meetings

of the Board of Normal School Principals, 1926-1927.
procedure to follow was given to each Dean.
(c)
The value of "fifteen units of high school credit" promised to
teachers-in-service with standard certificates or partial elementary
certificates.
Copies of the old statements of credits toward standard certification
for elementary teachers were distributed.
This old notification form was sent
to teachers working for temporary standard certificates.
Some teachers in
service have been disappointed because these were accepted at face value toward
a degree by several Deans.
(d)
When may courses from other institutions be rejected and vhen
accepted?
Courses from other institutions may be accepted if:
The institution is accredited and the work completed in an approved
1.
curriculum.
The quality of work is worthy
2.
3.
They are applicable to the curriculum the student desires to
complete.
5.
REGULATIONS ?
(a)
Can requirements be codified?
How many should be in the catalog?
Most Deans keep all regulations in
(b)
a
systematic way.
Can the Dean prepare a book of regulations and interpretations for
each individual institution?
Dean McClelland stated that when anything comes up in his institution
he keeps a record of the case and its solution. Most Deans do likewise.
(c)
What should the Deans* attitude be toward regulations?
It was agreed that such was a cooperative proposition.
6.
REPORTS
(a)
:
How shall the new October 15 and February 15 report be filled out?
How shall Class II and Class III students be computed?
Copies of the new report blanks were distributed. The new features
and changes were explained and the way to compute the adjusted enrolments was
demonstrated.
(b)
TVhich pupils should be included on page five of the regular semester
report
— Cooperative
Training School Pupils?
The Deans were asked to include on this page the total number of
pupils with whom student teachers come in contact.
(c)
How can we help to get the reports on Faculty Record Cards uniform?
The Deans were advised that the report form for the instructional
and non-instructional staffs in the State Teachers Colleges was being revised.
The Deans should make sure that there are faculty record cards filed for as
many full-time instructors as are included in this report.
(d)
How may Deans plan a program of classes for summer session?
The majority of the Deans record the needs as shown by students in
the current summer session and as shown by evaluations, and plan the program
for the next summer accordingly.
7.
STUDENT TEACHING-
:
(a) Should one semester be
teaching is permitted?
completed at the college before student
The Deans agreed that one semester of work should be completed at the
college before student teaching is permitted. Then Dean Andruss raised the
question as to what should be done about students who come to their institutions
from a liberal arts college to get student teaching during a summer session.
Dean 7.'alsh replied that at Indiana a student has never been given student
teaching unless he oompleted one semester of work there.
-8-
(b)
How may the student teaching requirement be satisfied?
Mimeographed statements governing the student teaching requirement,
which answered this question, were distributed.
(c)
What are satisfactory course substitutions for student teaching?
Most of the Deans were of the opinion that this depends on the
student. Most of them have a good working relation with the Director of
Student Teaching and handle this cooperatively.
(d)
How are projects which are used as a substitution for student
teaching made and followed through in your college?
The Deans stated that supervisors were sent out to follow up the
projects. Most of them were of the opinion that the number of times the
supervisors were sent out depended on the individual.
8.
TRANSCRIPTS
(a)
:
Since transcripts need no pre-approval in the Department for
graduation, how should they be submitted when presented for
certification?
Suggestions for the preparation of transcripts sent from teachers
colleges, along with the application blanks for allege certificates, were
distributed. If these application blanks and transcripts are prepared
according to these suggestions, there will be better understanding and the
certificates will be issued more promptly.
(b)
What progress has been made in getting transcripts, score cards,
and certificates together in order that all may be sent to the
Department at one time for the renewal of certificates or for
making certificates permanent?
Great improvement in this has been noted. A few Deans explained
the difficulties they were having with superintendents in regard to the
submission of credentials but as a whole the credentials are being submitted
more satisfactorily.
(c)
Are we compelled to accept at face value credits transferred from
one teachers college to another?
Credits transferred from one teachers college to another are to be
accepted at face value.

MISCELLANEOUS
(a)
How shall the Dean function in furthering professional preparation
of the faculty?
The essence of this discussion was as follows:
The Dean and President have numerous means of attack.
a sincere conference with the individual often helps.
Possibly a rating score card should be devised.
Develop pride in the institution and show responsibility the
individual has toward the institution and service area.
Make oral and written reports of visits to school districts
in the area.
Faculty rank should be given further consideration.

5.
6.
(b)
What can we do about the demands for carrying extra credits?
Dean Walsh read the report of the committee of Deans appointed
two years ago to settle the question of extra credits.
It was pointed out
that the Council regulation of one credit per week for certification still
held and that the President should be consulted for the use of extra
credits toward graduation.
Doctor Kriner thanked the Deans for their contributions in making
this meeting a success.
The meeting adjourned at 4:40 P.M.

Report of the Curricular and Credentials Committee
1.
Content for New Syllabi
Doctor Steele, Chairman of the Curricular and Credentials
Committee, submitted the following report:
"RELORT OF CURRICULUM AND CREDENTIALS
COMMITTEE
November 17, 1939
Re:
Content for Syllabi
Minimum statements describing each course in the
the different colleges*
courses and arranged by
to mimeograph these
the colleges so that
core curriculum have bfeen secured from
These have been tabulated according to
subjects. Arrangements are being made
descriptions and to distribute them to
each instructional department may have
access to these course
descriptions.
The committee recommends that each department
study these course descriptions carefully with the purpose of
preparing ultimately a brief composite statement for each
course acceptable to all the colleges.
The committee requests the active cooperation of
all the teachers colleges in the next step of the study which
will be the listing by topics for each course the content
expected to be covered by the course. The committee believes
that only by study can duplications of topics and course
contents be discovered and refinements and revisions made
where needed.
Respectfully submitted,
LeRoy A, King
Q. A. W. Rohrbach
Carmon Ross
Albert Lindsay Rowland
Robert M. Steele, Chairman"
-1391*,
2.
Home Economics Curriculum
Doctor Steele distributed copies of the proposed four
year curriculum in Home Economics. The Chairman pointed out that
this was a uniform course for all Teachers Colleges offering the
curriculum in home economics education. Inasmuch as one of the
institutions had not seen the report and another raised objection
to parts of the report, the Chairman suggested that the curriculum
be reviewed again and a report presented at a subsequent meeting
of the Board.
3.
Courses for Special Fields for
Certlf icat ion
Doctor Steele presented the following report:
"REPORT OF THE CURRICULUM AND CREDENTIALS
COMMITTEE
November 17, 1939
Re;
Increase in Requirements for Certification
The committee has discussed the recurring demands
for more extended training in content subjects to be
taught by prospective secondary teachers.
The committee recommends that the Superintendent
of Fublic Instruction be requested to consider the
advisability of having each certificate issued for the
'secondary field indicate upon its face the number of
semester hours completed by the holder in each field
appearing on the face of the certificate.
Respectfully submitted,
LeRoy A. King
Q. A. V/. Rohrbach
Carmon Ross
Albert Lindsay Rowland
Robert M. Steele, Chairman"
The Chairman accepted the recommendation of the committee
and agreed to consider the suggestion.
4.
Fields for Specialization for Students
in Elementary Curriculum
-1392-
Doctor Steele presented the following report:
"REFORT OF CURRICULUM AND CREDENTIALS
COMMITTEE
Re:
Electives in Elementary Curriculum
The committee has considered this topic referred
to it through the Board from the meeting of the Deans of
Instruction and makes the following Recommendations:
1.
That teachers-in-service who desire to qualify for
the Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary
Education shall complete the core curriculum and
choose electives from approved courses offered by
the college at which the degree is to be conferred.
2.
That students enrolled in preservice preparation for
teaching in the Elementary field shall be required to
specialize in one of the three variants of the
Elementary curriculum Kindergarten-Primary, Intermediate, Rural
and to select electives from the
list of approved electives to be selected as
described in the recommendation following,
—
—
3.
That each President be instructed by the Board to
appoint a committee from his staff to study and
report to the Curriculum and Credentials Committee
not later than January 1, 1940, its findings as to
the courses which should be open for election to
students specializing in each of the three groups,
Kindorgartun-I rimary Intermediate and Sural.
,
Respectfully submitted
LeRoy A. King
Q. A. W. Rohrbach
Carmon Ross
Albert Lindsay Rowland
Robert M. Steele, Chairman"
It was pointed out that the committee recommended the continuance
of the present practice of specialization in the three areas of Kindergarten-Primary, Intermediate, and Rural, but it recommended the preparation
of new courses which in the composite judgment of the staffs of all the
institutions would most likely contribute toward the competency of a
teacher specializing in one of the three groups.
It was further pointed out that this matter might well serve as the
basis for faculty discussions and faculty collaboration.
-1393-
5.
Revision of Psychology Requirements
Doctor Steele presented the following report:
"REPORT OF CURRICULUM AND CREDENTIALS
COMMITTEE
November 17, 1939
Re:
Revision of Psychology Requirements
The committee believes that the most constructive
method of approaching a revision of the psychology requirements
is to request each college to have its psychology and education
instructors prepare a report for the committee including the
following:
1.
Aims and Objectives of the study of Psychology
by a prospective teacher.
2.
General Content to be covered.
3.
Specific Content (List by topics) needed by
Elementary teacher
a.
Secondary
b.
Special subjects
c.
List by topics.
If the Board approves this procedure, forms and
instructions will be prepared for distribution.
Respectfully submitted,
LeRoy A. King
Q,. A. W. Rohrbach
Carmon Ross
Albert Lindsay Rowland
Robert M. Steele, Chairman M
Doctor Steele stated that the committee requested this report
be submitted by January 1, 1940. He also requested the cooperation of the
Board in giving attention to requests of this type so that the work of the
committee can be done in ample time before Board meetings.
On motion by Doctor Rowland, seconded by Mr. Andruss, it was voted
that the committee be authorized to prepare and distribute forms and
instructions.

Flexibility in the Fields of Concentration
Doctor Steele submitted the following report:
"RETORT OF THE CURRICULUM AND CREDENTIALS
COMMITTEE
November 17, 1939
Ret Flexibility in the Fields of Concentration
In order to meet the criticism of several of the
colleges the coirmittee recommends:
In the elective arrangement in the fields of English, Social
Studies, Geography, Methematics, French, Latin and Science as
published in the Department of Public Instruction Bulletin 153, 1938,
Teacher Education Curriculums, pages 16, 17, 18, 19 and 20, that the
second list denoted by Roman II in each case be revised by striking
out the word "Required" and inserting the word "Recommended."
This
change shall apply to English, Social Studies, Geography, Mathematics,
French, Latin and Science,
Respectfully submitted,
LeRoy A. King
Q. A. W. Rohrbach
Carmon Ross
Albert Lindsay Rowland
Robert M. Steele, Chairman"
It was pointed out that this procedure would liberalize the
situation from the point of view of the student.
Doctor Steele stated that it was assumed that there would be
careful guidance on the part of the institutions.
On motion by Doctor Steele, seconded by Doctor Rowland, it was
voted that the report be adopted,
74
Increased Requirement
in the Field of English
<
Doctor Steele submitted the following report:
"REFORT OF THE CURRICULUM AND CREDENTIALS
COMMITTEE
November 17, 1939
Re:
Increased Requirements for Certification in the Field of English
-1395-
The committee calls attention to its report
recorded May 18, 1939, on page 1354 and corrected July 25, 1939,
on page 1363, of the Proceedings of the Board of Teachers College
Presidents.
The committee believes that no special regulations
should be made by this Board affecting certifications of teachers
college graduates that do not equally apply to graduates of other
institutions. The committee again calls attention to the wide range
of courses available to the prospective teacher of English and the
freedom each college has in offering these courses.
The committee recommends that an additional elective
course be approved and offered as follows:
The Eighteenth Century
3-3
This course to include a study of the writings of such literary
figures as Pope, Dryden, Addison, Steele, Swift, Johnson, Goldsmith,
Sheridan, Congreve Wycherly, Defoe, Pepys Burns, Blake, Thomson, etc.

field. Admission by consent of the Director of the Clinic
and the Dean of Instruction.

of the clinic; maximum credit, six semester hours.
Respectfully submitted,
LeRoy A. King
Q. A. 77. Rohrbach
Carmon Ross
Albert Lindsay Rowland
Robert M, Steele, Chairman,*
Doctor Steele stated that this report followed requests from
several of the Teachers Colleges maintaining approved psychological
clinics to meet the requirements for certificates to act as public school
psychologists and public school psychological examiners,.
Questions were raised concerning the 45 clock hours recommended
in the report inasmuch as eighteen semester hours are the basis for all
courses; 54 clock hours were suggested.
It was suggested that action be held in abeyance until the
committee had time to revise the report for presentation at a subsequent
meeting,

Ranking of Faculty Members
Doctor Miller, Chairman of the Budget Committee, submitted the
following report:
"RETORT OF BUDGET COMMITTEE
Re:
Ranking of Faculty Members
trior to the meeting of the Budget Committee, questionnaires
were sent to each president asking for his reaction regarding the former
proposals for the ranking of faculty members. The replies showed such a
divergence of opinion that the committee decided to recommend the
following:
1.
In view of recent studies made on the question of instructional staffs of State institutions, that a detailed study
be made of such investigations.
-1397-
.
2.
The committee believes that a phase of its problem
which is worthy of consideration is the creation
of a further classification in the salary schedule
under the title of "Graduate Assistant".
3.
The committee recommends further that, in order
to make such study as seems desirable, the problem
should be considered for a year. We, therefore,
recommend that the question of Banking of Faculty
Members be removed from the Docket for the present.

The Chairman of the Board pointed out that it was a question of
whether or not the Board wanted a ranking system.
Inasmuch as it appeared to be the consensus that the question
should not be removed from the Docket for the present, it was moved by
Doctor King and seconded by Doctor Miller that the Budget Committee bring
in a report at the next meeting in line with the suggestions made at the
meeting. The motion carried and it was so voted .
C.
Report of Dr. Ross re "Marking Systems"
Doctor Ross reported that he had sent a copy of the study on
marking systems to each president with the request that it be reviewed
carefully and suggestions submitted to him.
The Chairman of the Board stated that he had read the report
carefully and believed it to be deserving of careful study.
It was agreed that the Chairman of the Board should appoint a
committee of three to work with Doctor Ross and present a criticism of the
report

Reports from the Attorney General's Office
Honorable George J. Barco, Deputy Attorney General, Department
of Justice, appeared before the Board,
1,
Possibility of Providing Liability Protection
The question had been raised with the Department of Justice concerning the liability which the State Teachers Colleges would incur if a
spectator were injured while attending an athletic contest in which the
colleges participated,
-.1398-
.
Mr. Barco stated that his answer was based on two legal principles:
1.
The State Teachers Colleges are part of the State
Government and are State Agencies. As such, no
one can sue the Commonwealth without the
Commonwealth's consent.
2.
The Supreme Court states that when one participates
in a sport, one assumes all risks incident to that
sport
Mr. Barco stated that the Attorney General concurred in the judgment that there is no liability on the part of the colleges.
2
Report of Play Production Material
.
"ith reference to the report on play production material, Mr. Barco
stated that he had not gone into this matter and asked that the specific
questions with reference to the use of play materials be submitted to him for
study.
Use of Teachers Colleges fcr Promotion of Aeronautics
3.
With reference to this question, Mr. Barco stated that as he understood it, the instructor and the equipment necessary are furnished by the
Federal Government and the colleges furnish only the room. He pointed out
that the Acts that created the colleges provided that they were created for
the purpose of preparing teachers and that the Board of Presidents of the
State Teachers Colleges, with the approval of the Superintendent of Public
Instruction, had within its power the right to formulate the educational
policies of the State Teachers Colleges. He stated that there would be no
objection to the development of a course of study in aeronautics if the
Board saw fit to develop such a course*
Mr. Barco further pointed out that a student taking this course
would assume all risks incident to the course and that there would be no
liability on the part of the college if a student should become injured or
killed. He suggested that a release be prepared which would be signed by
both students and parents.
On motion of Doctor Steele, seconded by Doctor King, it was voted
that the program in aviation training as set forth in a communication from
Mr. Robert H. Hinckley, Chairman, Civil Aeronautics Authority, Washington,
D.C., be made available as a part of the approved curriculum program in such
State Teachers Colleges as may be approved by the Superintendent of Public
Instruction.

Re: Uniform Admission Blank
The committee has adapted the uniform admission
blank proposed by the Bureau of Instruction, Department of
Public Instruction, to the specific needs of the Teachers
Colleges.
The form was submitted to the Teachers Colleges and
criticisms and suggestions solicited. Successive revisions were
made based upon replies received and the resulting form resubmitted.
The committee believes the form submitted represents

A copy of the Uniform Admission Blank follows page 1400.
On motion by Doctor Steele, seconded by Doctor Ade, it
was voted that the report of the committee relative to this uniform
blank be adopted.
Doctor Rowland and Mr. Andruss voted "no".
The Chairman of the Board pointed out that the State

blank until it was established that a majority of the institutions
of higher learning in Pennsylvania vere using the uniform admission
blank.

Report of the Committee on Publications
The Chairman of the Board reported that some months ago when he
was chairman of the Committee on Publications, he had taken up with
Doctor Logan the possibility of developing a financial unit of control for
publications and that Doctor Logan had stated h« would be glad to talk to
him about the matter. The Chairman of the Board further reported that
following his appointment as Superintendent of Public Instruction, he had
asked Doctor King to discuss the matter with Doctor Logan.
The Chairman of the Board stated that he would turn over to Doctor
King his complete file on the subject of publications in order that Doctor
King might become familiar with the background of the situation and take up
the matter with Doctor Logan.

Report of the Committee re "Service Areas"
Doctor Rowland, Chairman of the Committee re "Service Areas",
submitted the following report:
"REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON SERVICE AREAS
TO THE BOARD OF PRESIDENTS
November 17, 1939
The last report of the Service Area Committee was under date of
March 17, 1939, at which time the Committee restricted its report to the
question of de-limiting the service areas in the special fields. Two
alternative suggestions were made to the Board, and spread upon the minutes,
that careful study be made of the suggestions and that further discussion be
developed at the next meeting of the Board.
Your Committee held a full day's session on November 2. Present:
Presidents Chandler, LaRue Rowland, Swope. Absent: President Ross. Doctor
Klonower, the Secretary of the Board, met with the Committee.
,
The Chairman presented a statement concerning the service area
policy which developed a sharp difference of opinion among the members of
the Committee regarding the relationship of recruiting to the service areas.
Messrs. Chandler and LaRue contended that inasmuch as the colleges draw the
largest proportion of their student body from their own service area, the
size of the service area would be reflected in the size of the student body
and the influence of the college correspondingly affected.
1405-
The other members of the Committee took the position that
inasmuch as all teachers colleges draw students from beyond the
boundaries of the service area, the service area should be determined
largely by ease of communication with the college campus and by the
facilities of the college to render professional service, and should
The service area should comprise
not represent a recruitment area.
school
districts
for whom the college would render
those schools and
district professional advice and counsel, would lend instructional
materials, hold professional meetings, provide demonstration of
instructional techniques, etc.
After further discussion the following statement was, I
believe, the sense of the Committee: * The service area is a geographical
section, determined by its ease of access to the college and by the
ability of the college to render professional assistance to its schools.
In this area the college has its major interest. To this area it
confines its efforts to inform high school students of the opportunities
lying in the teaching profession, and to this area it limits its professional assistance to the public schools.'
-
Four major problems face the Committee:
1.
2.
3.
4.
a determination of the ethical procedures which should control
each college in relation to its service area and to the service
areas of other colleges
a further definition and listing of the professional services
which a college might be expected to render in its area
a reconsideration of the present service area boundaries.
(At this point it was the feeling of the Committee that the
matter of reallocation of boundaries should be discussed by
the Board for the information of the Committee. Dr. LaRue took
the position that the original code areas set up in Section 2001
of the school code should be the service areas rather than the
present service areas.)
the determination of the larger service areas in the special fields.
(Discussion developed at this point that where a college by reason
of a special curriculum has an enlarged service area its influence
tends to conflict with that of other colleges whose specifio
service areas it invades by its special field of interest. The
Committee was unable for the present to resolve this difficulty.)
It was the feeling of the Committee that the Chairman should
present in this report, especially for the benefit of those presidents
who have joined the Board since 1925, a statement concerning the origin
of the service areas.
In the early years of the Finegan administration it appeared
that the normal school districts set forth in the code were substantially
without function, as under the law there was no specific limitation laid
upon any of the normal schools by reason of these districts. It was,
however, strongly felt that each normal school should become a center for
professional service for the area surrounding it, and under the direction
of the Superintendent of Public Instruction and with the approval of the
Board of Normal School Principals, the Department of Public Instruction
proceeded to develop geographical areas around each of the then thirteen
:
-1406-
State Normal Schools on the basis of railroad and highway communication, density of population and existing facilities for service
at the normal school.
No change in these area lines has been made since their first
determination with, I believe, the exception of that portion of
Lycoming County lying south and west of the Susquehanna River which
was very shortly after the first division taken from the Mansfield
service area and attached to that of Lock Haven. A further exception
appears in the published maps dividing Blair County between Indiana and
Lock Haven, although I can find no record of this division in any of
the printed statements of the service areas, and have therefore
assigned all of Blair County in this report to the service area of
Lock Haven. The question now arises - shall these service areas be
reestablished along different lines, and if so, what shall determine
the change?
The Committee submits herewith for the consideration of the
Board a statement of the present service areas with the populations
revised as of the 1930 census, the original populations having been
based upon the 1920 census. The cities of Pittsburgh and of Philadelphia
which would normally fall respectively in the service areas of Slippery
Rock and of West Chester have been omitted from these lists of populations.
The Committee gave considerable thought to this matter and were
again of the opinion that a discussion by the Board would be helpful in
resolving this point. While there are at present no public teacher
education institutions either in Pittsburgh or in Philadelphia and
while these cities will undoubtedly draw in substantial measure from
the State Teachers Colleges for their supply of teachers, there is also
maintained in each of these cities an elaborate supervisory and professional service system abetted by the universities situated in these
cities which changes sharply the relationship between these cities and
the State Teachers Colleges as contrasted with the relationship prevailing elsewhere in the State.
The Chairman of the Committee was also instructed to present a
suggested division of the State for the larger service areas required
for the special fields.
Such a division is tentatively offered herewith.
The Committee requests instruction from the Board of Presidents
as to its further procedure*
Respectfully submitted,
Paul G. Chandler

It was pointed out that this report should be considered tentative
and in no way final.
The Chairman suggested that the matter be continued on the Docket.
He urged that the report of the committee be studied carefully by the
members of the Board and recommendations and criticisms submitted to the
chairman of the committee so that a specific recommendation might be submitted at the next meeting of the Board.

Report of the Committee re "Purchase of Secondary
School Lists"
Doctor Rowland, Chairman of the Committee re "Purchase of
Secondary School Lists", submitted the following report:
"REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON PURCHASE OF LISTS
OF SENIOR STUDENTS

To the Board of Teachers College Presidents:
At the meeting of the Board of Presidents on Thursday, May 18,
by Dr. Ade consisting of Presidents
1939,
Noonan, Rohrbach and Rowland, Chairman, to discuss the case of the
teachers colleges with the Pennsylvania Branch of the National Education
Association, Department of Secondary School Principals.
a committee was appointed
It will be remembered that this group of Secondary School Principals had arranged to provide lists of their senior students to be
sold to colleges and other approved agencies who might seek such lists.
This suggestion I believe had been made to this group by Dr. Paul
Cressman after there had been substantial complaint on the part of the
high school principals of the many demands made upon them for such lists.
The Chairman of the Committee wrote Mr. J. E. Nancarrov, Principal
of the VJilliamsport High School and Secretary of the Pennsylvania Branch,
as follows:
My dear Mr. Nancarrow:
At a recent meeting of the Board of State Teachers College
Presidents I was appointed chairman of a committee to consult with the
Pennsylvania Branch of the Department of Secondary School Principals
relative to the lists of high school graduates which I understand have
been prepared by this group and are for sale to those who may wish such
lists.
While fully appreciating the annoyance that must attach to
requests constantly made to high school principals for the lists of their
graduates and other students by various agencies interested in circular?izing these students, it was the feeling of the Board of Teachers College
Presidents that inasmuch as the State Teachers Colleges of Pennsylvania

.
are an integral part of the public school system of the Commonwealth and
represent the principal source of supply for the teachers of the public
schools, there should be a relationship set up between these colleges
and the high schools of the Commonwealth which would provide in such
manner and with such frequency as might be mutually agreed upon such
lists of high school students as should receive information concerning
the several curricula available in teacher education for the high school
graduates of the State,
Inasmuch as the State Teachers Colleges are public institutions
and no funds are available for the purchase of any such lists T and
inasmuch as the Secondary School Principals, Teachers College Presidents
and all other administrators in the public school system are equally concerned with an adequate and competent supply of teachers for the schools,
it was the feeling of the Board that it would be proper to suggest that
an exception be made in your ruling, making available these lists to the
State Teachers Colleges without cost.
As Secretary of the Pennsylvania Branch of the Department of
Secondary School Principals of the National Education Association, I am
writing you in the hope that you will give me your frank reaction to the
point of view which I have expressed and if there are others with whom I
should correspond, that you would let me know their names. The committee
of the Board, consisting of Presidents Noonan, Rohrbach and myself, would
be very happy to meet with your group at some time in the near future
that would be mutually convenient.
With kindest regards,
I
am
Very sincerely yours,
Albert Lindsay Rowland
The Chairman subsequently received a communication from Mr. G. W.
Lefever, Principal of the Gettysburg High School and President of the
Pennsylvania Branch, stating that he was scheduling a meeting of the
Executive Committee of the Branch for Thursday evening, October 26, to meet
with representatives of the Board of Teachers College Presidents to consider
this matter.
By this time Dr. Noonan was no longer a member of the Board.
President Rohrbach was unable to be present at the meeting and the Chairman
asked Dr. Klonower to join him in behalf of the Board of Presidents in
meeting with the Executive Committee. This Committee consists of G. W.
Lefever, Gettysburg, J. Ernest Wagner, Johnstown, J. E. Nancarrow, Williamsport, E. A. Gladfelter, York, Horace G. Geisel, Harrisburg and Oliver S.
Heckman, Department of Putlic Instruction. All members of the Committee
were present except Mr. Heckman whose place was taken by Dr. Cressman of the
Department
Your Cnairman presented the case for the Board of Presidents. The
discussion was entirely friendly but the Secondary School Principals clearly
felt that they should not make an exception in the case of the teachers
colleges, and it was further pointed out that three of the teachers colleges
are already and have been purchasing these lists so that my contention that
the teachers colleges were not in a position to buy these lists was heavily
discounted.
-1412-
The Executive Committee did, however, consent to the
purchase of one list to be used by all of the state teachers
colleges, giving permission for the division of such a list to
accomodate the several service areas served by the teachers
colleges.
It is therefore the recommendation of your Committee
that such a list be purchased and the cost divided equally among
the several colleges, the list to be divided in Dr. Klonower^s
office and distributed to the several colleges. The cost is $40.00
less 20% for advance payment, but as advance payment is probably
impossible by our plan of purchase, the cost would be $40.00.

On motion by Doctor Rowland, seconded by Doctor Miller, it was
voted that the report of the committee be adopted,

Uniform Placement Blank for State Teachers Colleges
Doctor Tanger, Chairman of the committee appointed to study the
possibility of providing a uniform placement blank for State Teachers
Colleges, submitted the following report:
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON UNIFORM PLACEMENT BLANKS
The committee recommends that the Board of Teachers
College Presidents request the Chairman of the Pennsylvania
Institutional Teacher Placement Association to appoint a
committee of three Teachers College placement officials to
cooperate with our committee in the development of uniform
placement blanks.
We recognize that the greater number of placement
forms used throughout the Teachers Colleges should be uniform.
Mimeographed forms may be used to take care of peculiar local
conditions.

Affiliation with the Pennsylvania Committee

Use of Facilities of Colleges by Outside Agencies
Doctor Flowers raised the question of charging fees for the use
of the swimming pool by outside agencies.
It was the general opinion of the Board that where outside
agencies were concerned, the problem involved was one that should be
settled by the Board of Trustees as a matter between outside agencies
and the Board of Trustees.
C.
Late Registration Fee (Not included on Docket
)
The question was raised concerning the intent of the policy
with reference to the late" registration fee as to whether it applied

Pennsylvania State College, suggesting a conference between representatives
of the State Teachers Colleges and The Pennsylvania State College.

desire was expressed on the part of the Board to cooperate with Doctor
Hetzel* s request for a conference and the suggestion was made that he send

action of the Board.

the professional work of the institutions, namely:

study by a small committee, followed by a specific, brief, written
reaction by the president to the responsible committee chairmen.

C.
Report of Committee re "Marking Systems"
Doctor Ade, Chairman of the Reviewing Committee on College
Marking Systems, presented the following report:
"REPORT OF REVIEWING COMMITTEE ON COLLEGE MARKING SYSTEMS
The Committee has had one meeting. At this meeting it was
the consensus of opinion of the group that rigid uniformity with
respect to Marking Systems in any of its aspects is undesirable
and impracticable. The Reviewing Committee feels that Doctor Ross
has done a good job in focusing attention on this matter, and urges
individual colleges to continue their independent study and
experimentation.
The Committee questions the advisability of using the
distribution curve in determining grades in student teaching. In
other words, students who get any grade in student teaching at the
lower end of the scale will find it practically impossible to
secure placement.
The Reviewing Committee recommends that a system of honor
points be required, not only for graduation but also for student
teaching, provided however, that it does in no way lower standards
The Reviewing Committee thinks it desirable that
of achievement.
a careful study be made as it affects the superior or gifted student.
-1424-
Since it is virtually impossible to establish a
uniform system for all colleges, and in view of the fact
that examinations are objective or subjective, oral or
written,. 9tandard or comprehensive, and that they measure
not only acquired ability but native ability, it is wise
for all groups concerned to continue within their respective
institutions toward further development in measurement and
appraising the value and ability of the student. Furthermore,
the Committee suggests that a system of rating of personality
traits be studied, especially as it affects student teaching.
The Reviewing Committee recommends that our colleges,
for transfer purposes, adopt, effective September 1940, a
uniform plan of marking which comprises a system of four
passing marks and three non-passing grades. It recommends
that A, B, C, & D, be used for the passing grades and that
E, F, & Inc., be used for non-passing grades -.- E to indicate
conditional failure, F to indicate complete, total, or
absolute failure, and the course must be repeated with no
privilege of make-up, Inc. to indicate incomplete*
Respectfully submitted,
John G, Flowers
Carmon Ross
Lester K. Ade, Chairman"
On motion of Doctor Ade, seconded by Doctor Tanger, it
was voted that the Board adopt the recommendation of the committee
with respect to a uniform plan of marking for all colleges with
the exception of the Cooperative Curriculum at Shippensburg.

Report of the Committee re "Service Areas
Doctor Rowland, Chairman of the Committee re "Service Areas",
presented the following report:
"REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON SERVICE AREAS
TO THE BOARD OF PRESIDENTS
January 19, 1940
Since the last meeting of the Board of Presidents a letter from
Doctor Haas requested each member of the Board to report to the
Committee regarding any questions or objections that they wish to
raise concerning the last report of the Committee. The Chairman of
the Committee has heard from but four members of the Board:
From Acting President LaRue suggesting that the present service
areas remain as at present constituted until measures are taken for a
prolonged study of the situation, and that the special service areas be
left in each case to a committee composed of the presidents of the
colleges concerned;
,
From President Chandler, raising a question regarding the
eastern part of Venango County, asking a ruling as to its allocation.
Apparently subsequent to the first limitation of service areas in
1922 agreement was reached between the presidents of Edinboro and
Clarion and the Department of Public Instruction that that portion of
Venango County east of the Allegheny River be assigned to Clarion.
From President Swope, suggesting that a ruling be secured from
Doctor Haas in answer to Doctor LaRue* s point as to the legal justification for the present service areas in view of the specified code
areas in the law, which ruling was accordingly made by Doctor Haas
under date of November 29, as follows:
"It is my judgment that the
Service Area allocation represents a mutual agreement on the part of
the Board of Presidents and one which it is within their authority to
make ."
From President Rohrbach with special reference to the allocation
of the service areas in the field of Art Education.
In view of the character and amount of this response the Committee
desires to make the following report at the present time:
That the present service areas for curricula offered by all the
colleges remain as defined including the division of Venango County
between Edinboro and Clarion, and the division of Lycoming County
between Lock Haven and Mansfield; that the determination of the service
areas for the special fields be left with the presidents of the several
colleges offering curricula in these special fields until the meeting
of the Board of Presidents in July 1940, with tne hope and expectation
that by conference and correspondence the several presidents may
determine upon mutually agreeable boundary lines for the special
-1426-
service area/limitations as set forth in the report of the
Committee on November 17 will prevail.
The Committee suggests that until July 1940 this item be
removed from the docket.
Respectfully submitted

Employment of Administrative Officers in

The Chairman of the Board read the resolution of the Board
with reference to the employment of administrative officers as it
appears on page 1414 of the minutes of the meeting held November 17,

Pennsylvania
Cooperative Study of Teacher Education in
"
(Not included on DocketT
The Secretary of the Board distributed copies of the Erie
Planning Conference material for the Cooperative Study of Teacher
Education in Pennsylvania, held October 20, 1939. He reported that
at the December meeting of the Cooperative Commission held at the
Penn-Harris Hotel, the Executive Committee of this Commission
considered ways and means of raising funds to continue meetings in
different sections of the State for the discussion of the problems
in the field of teacher education.
He stated that it was suggested
that each institution be requested to contribute flO.OO toward the
cost of the administration of the study in the field of teacher education
On motion of Doctor Ross, seconded by Doctor Tanger, it was
voted that the Board of Presidents of the State Teachers Colleges
cooperate with other groups in a study of the problems connected with
teacher education in Pennsylvania.

Advertisement in Pennsylvania School Journal
Not included on Docket

(
The Secretary of the Board read the following letter from
Mr. H. E. Gayman, Executive Secretary, Pennsylvania State Education
Association:
"PENNSYLVANIA STATE EDUCATION
ASSOCIATION
Pennsylvania School Journal
Official Organ
400 North Third Street
Harrisburg, Pa.
January 16, 1940
Doctor Henry Klonower
Department of Public Instruction
Harrisburg, Pennsylvania
My dear Doctor Klonower;
You will recall that on a number of occasions
-1431-
I
have spoken
to you with reference to the advertisement of the State Teachers Colleges
which appears regularly on the back cover of the Pennsylvania School
Journal. Our Association has been very appreciative of the action of the
Board of State Teachers College Presidents in approving this advertising
which not only keeps the State Teachers Colleges before the school people
of Pennsylvania, but also has been a substantial source of income to the
Association.
During the last two years commercial advertising has been quite
difficult to secure. One of the firms with which we have had considerable
correspondence is Allyn and Bacon. Mr. Bacon, President of this Company,
informs me that it is their fixed policy to advertise only on the back
cover of educational magazines. He further informs me that should the
back cover be available their Company would contract for each monthly
issue from March, 1940 to June, 1941, inclusive.
hesitate because of the long and satisfactory relations that
have existed to raise this question. However, I am wondering if the
Board of Presidents would be willing to accept another preferred position
in the Pennsylvania School Journal. The cost of the different pages is
I
as follows:
Back cover
Inside back cover
Inside front cover
$250 per issue
$225 per issue
$225 per issue
All of these other preferred spaces are now available with the
exception of the inside of the front cover for the month of September,
From the point of view of securing additional advertising from
book companies, I think you can readily see that it would be quite a
stimulus to have a regular page advertisement from Allyn and Bacon. May
I ask that you present this matter to the Board of Presidents at its next
meeting?
Very sincerely yours,
H
.
E
.
Gayman
Executive Secretary"
G d
On motion of Doctor Rowland, seconded by Doctor Steele, it was
voted that the following resolution of the Board be adopted and transmitted to Mr. Gayman by the Secretary of the Board:
"Be it Resolved: That the Board of Teachers College Presidents
are very sensible of the pleasant relationship which has long
prevailed between the Board and the Pennsylvania State
Education Association in the publishing of the Pennsylvania
School Journal and in the provision which has been made to
give the back page to the Pennsylvania State Teachers Colleges.
-1432-
The Board fully realizes the difficulties which are faced in
meeting the requirements of the several advertisers and at the
same time filling all the available advertising space to the
best advantage and with the largest income to the Pennsylvania
School Journal. However, the Board is unanimously reluctant to
relinquish the strategic position which we have so long enjoyed
on the back cover of the Journal. For a number of years, our
friends have been accustomed to look to this point for information concerning the State Teachers Colleges and their offerings
to young people interested in entering the teaching profession.
To change the location of this advertisement to another position
inside the magazine, however advantageous the new position might
be, would destroy some measure of the value of the advertisement,
just as a shopkeeper regards the location of his establishment as
one of the intangible assets of his business.
Under these circumstances, the Board hopes that it may be
permitted to continue having the space on the back cover of the
Journal, and it is therefore resolved that the Board authorizes
no change in the present contractual arrangement with the
Pennsylvania School Journal for advertising space for the ensuing
year."
H.
Remarks by the Chairman of the Board
The Chairman of the Board pointed out the advisability for each
President to examine the activities within his institution and to make sure
that these activities are consistent with the philosophy back of the
institutions, namely, to prepare teachers for the public schools.
The suggestion was made that each President know his organization.
Sometime ago a chart of each organization was prepared. This should be
brought up to date and be kept available. This is one of the best methods
of crystallizing complete understanding of the organization of the institution..
It was pointed out that the Presidents of the institutions have
personal contacts with employees, members of the Boards of Trustees, the
community, and members of other State Departments. The suggestion was made
that care should be taken that such contacts, both written and oral, should
be of such a character as not to embarrass the administrative officer. Points
of irritation do arise but there can be no justification for the expression
of this irritation in official communications.
Great care must be taken in the matter of dismissing a teacher
for incompetency.
If a teacher is dismissed for this cause, she should know
it and the records should clearly indicate the fact.
There have been instances
Of teachers recorded as "resigned voluntarily", but it subsequently develops
that the real cause has been dismissal for incompetency.

The Chairman of the Board emphasized the necessity of knowing the
personnel of the institutions. He pointed out the difficulty of making a
satisfactory explanation if the head of an institution could not identify
the employees and indicate the specific work for which they were placed on
the State payroll.
In conclusion, the Chairman of the Board pointed out that each
President should be prepared to justify his actions as a State officer in
terms of the purpose for which the Legislature created the State Teachers
Colleges. The importance of reviewing personal contacts of all kinds,
including necessary relationships with State Department officers, was
emphasized and, finally, the suggestion was made that each President find
out within a week from some appropriate staff member in the Department of
Public Instruction, exactly what maintenance is provided for Presidents.

"REPORT OF FEES COMMITTEE
March 15, 1940
The Fees Committee recommends that the
advance registration deposit be continued as
provided in the uniform schedule of fees, deposits,
and repayments as approved in the 1933 schedule.
Attention is called to the fact that unless
the student has actually registered, submitted the
required admission credentials and paid in part or
in full the registration fees, he is not considered
a registered student.
In brief, if there are no advance registered
students, there will be no advance registration
deposits; if, however, there are advance registered
students then advance registration deposits must be
made,
(Respectfully submitted,
John G, Flowers
Harvey A» Andruss
Lester K. Ade, Chairman"

respectively, which referred to the operation of cooperative stores and
student cooperative organizations.
It was suggested that copies of
these opinions be forwarded to each member of the Board,
It was the consensus that if the Board of Trustees approves

that fee.

Acceptance of Courses for Post -High School V/ork
Girard College
Doctor Steele, Chairman of the Committee, submitted the
following report:
"REFCRT OF THE CURRICULAR AND CREDENTIALS COMMITTEE
May 17, 1940
Re: Acceptance' of Courses for Post-High School Work, Girard
College
In consideration of the request of Girard College,
through Dr. D. Montfort Melchior, its Principal, that the post
high school year now offered at Girard College be accepted at
the State Teachers Colleges for advanced standing in academic
courses, the Curricular and Credentials Committee, to whom this
-1443-
,
matter has been referred, begs to offer the following
observations:
Education in any professional field, such as
1.
Medicine, Law, Engineering, or teaching requires
not only the opportunity to acquire certain specific
professional knowledges and skills but also the
opportunity to do this in a single institution set
up for this purpose and for a period of time
sufficiently long to secure adequate professional
attitude.
foregoing is true, we should hesitate so to
extend the privilege of advance standing to a point
where the student would fail to acquire this desirable
professional attitude due to a division of his preparation between two or more institutions and to an
insufficient time spent in the ultimate professional
institution.
2.
If
"the
The Committee, however, recognizes that if and as
Junior colleges increase in number and the termination
of general education with the 14th year becomes more

Report of Testing Committee
1.
Results of Testing Program
Doctor Flowers, Chairman of the Committee, reported that
on the basis of the results submitted by the institutions in connection with the Freshman testing program, it was apparent that there
was a misunderstanding among the members with reference to the report
of the Testing Committee which appears on page 1371 of the minutes of
the Board of Presidents, July 25, 1939. It appeared that only eight
of the fourteen institutions used the tests designated by the committee.
Doctor Flowers stated that if the eight institutions would
use the distribution sheets in connection with the tests, the committee
would be willing to make a comparative study of the data. It was
agreed that such a study should be made.
Three phases of testing procedure were discussed:
(a) Entrance: Three forms of tests are to be recommended
for entrance examinations. The committee is to meet
immediately following the meeting and advise all
colleges of the tests to be used.
(b)
Classification: Each college is to decide which
tests serve most effectively in its program
looking toward the classification of students.
(c)
General testing program: These tests are for the
purpose of developing comparative data. The
committee will report at the summer meeting and
make sjpecifie recommendations as to types of
tests and procedures.
