HISTORY
The Bloomsburg State College has passed through many stages
since the founding of the Bloomsburg Academy in 1839. The Academy
became the Bloomsburg Literary Institute in 1856 and by 1869 was
designated as the Bloomsburg Literary Institute and State Normal
School.
In 1927 the Bloomsburg State Normal School, a name acquired in 1916, became the Bloomsburg State Teachers College. With
the change in name, the long-established program for the training of
elementary teachers was enlarged to include a four-year degree curriculum.
business teacher-training program was introduced in 1930
as a part of the expansion of curricular offerings for secondary school
teachers.
By 1950 the college was fully accredited by the Middle
States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, an accreditation
which was reaffirmed in 1960 and extended to include a program of
graduate studies. This same year the college reached another historic
milestone in its life as it became the Bloomsburg State College.

CAMPUS
For several years before college enrollments began
to soar. Presi-
dent Andruss and the Board of Trustees sensed the need for a coordinated long-range campus plan for building and development.
idea bore fruit in 1957
when Bloomsburg became
the
first
The
State Teach-
Pennsylvania to have a campus plan approved by the
Department of Public Instruction. The development of the campus
plan has been accompanied by the most extensive building program in
the history of the college.
Since 1956 the General State Authority
has listed for Bloomsburg twenty-eight projects totaling more than
ers College in
$23,000,000.

Twelve of these projects have been completed or will be completed
They include:
during 1967, at a cost of approximately $6,760,000.
College Commons (1956), Suthff Hall (1959). New North Hall
Dormitory for Men (1960), an extension of utilities (1960), facilities
for Special Education (1961), East and West Hall Dormitories for
Women (1964), two additions which have doubled the capacity of
the heating plant (1964), new air-conditioned Library (1966), and a
new air-conditioned Auditorium to seat 2,000 (1967). Construction
began in 1966 on another extension of utilities and a dormitory for
300 men costing $1,800,000.
Construction has also been started on another Men's Dormitory
(672) and a Science and Classroom building. Both are scheduled for
completion in September, 1968 at a total cost exceeding $5,000,000.
Funds have been allocated and preliminary designs submitted for four
projects to be constructed at a cost of $2,736,000.
When these are
completed, the college v/ill have a new Athletic Field, an air-conditioned Dining Hall seating 1,000 students, the first phase of a Student
Center, and a new parking area for 350 cars. Architects' sketches for a
$1,204,000 extension of utilities will begin as soon as the current
revision of the campus plan is approved.
Planning and design work began in the summer of 1966 for a
(400) to be constructed on the site of old Science
Hall.
A classroom building near the new Library, a Field House Gymnasium seating 4,000 spectators and a Maintenance Building Garage.
Nearly $5,500,000 will be earmarked for the construction
Women's Dormitory
of these buildings.
Early in 1966 the college requested design and construction funds
of nearly $3,000,000 for land purchases, site development, parking and
recreation areas, and an administration - fiscal - supply building.
Requests have also been submitted for a classroom building, a Men's
Dormitory (300), a Women's Dormitory (300), and a Dining Hall
and Kitchen.
The revision of the campus plan will provide sites for additional
buildings on the recently acquired sixty-eight acres which formerly comprised the Bloomsburg Golf Course and the Magee tract.
LIVING
ACCOMMODATIONS
Housing for Bloomsburg State College students is available in
modern well-kept dormitories. Meals are served in the pleasant atmosphere of the College Commons.
These facilities are available
to graduate students during the summer term at a reasonable cost.

provides seating for 750 student readers, shelves for 200,000 volumes,
a Treasure room, an Archives room, an Audio-visual Education Center,
three classrooms, a curriculum materials center, and related facilities.
Professional librarians, including a reference librarian, are available to
assist graduate students in their research activities.
The
ever-increasing collection of books and bound periodicals
more than 100,000 volumes and is supplemented by an extensive picture and pamphlet file. Library holdings related to fields of
graduate study are being constantly supplemented by the acquisition
of newly published books as well as books published in the past which
should be of value to the student engaged in research. The Bloomsburg
Public Library with its 30,000 volumes is also available to students
of the college.

GRADUATE STUDIES PROGRAM
On June 9, 1960, the State Council of Education of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania authorized the Bloomsburg State College to inaugurate a program of graduate studies and to confer the Master of
Education degree. Graduate courses for students desiring to secure
the Master of Education degree in Business Education, Elementary
Education. Biology, English, History, Reading, General Speech, Social
Studies. Speech Correction, and Special Education for the Mentally
Retarded are now offered by the College. The program is under the
direction of the Division of Graduate Studies operating within the framework of policies and curriculums developed and approved by the Graduate Council of the College.
PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES
The need
for professional education for teachers extending bethe undergraduate level has long been recognized by educational
leaders throughout the United States. In recent years the Pennsylvania
State Council of Education has taken positive action to improve instruction in public schools by upgrading certification requirements for teachers.
This action indicates a clear recognition by the State Council of
the need for training beyond the Bachelor's degree. Mandated salary
yond

schedules which provide salary differentials for holders of master's decrees in the form of higher maximum salaries give additional recognition of the value of graduate study.

SCHEDULING OF CLASSES
All graduate classes will be scheduled during late afternoons,
evenings, and/or Saturdays during the regular academic year.
The
calendar and daily time schedule for graduate courses offered during
the summer term will be similar to the calendar and daily time schedule
for undergraduate courses.
Graduate students will be able to pursue
a full-time graduate study program during the summer.
In-service
teachers will be able to complete the requirements for the Master of
Education degree without interference with normal professional duties.

PROFESSIONAL RESEARCH REQUIREMENT
Professional research is considered to be an integral part of all
graduate programs at Bloomsburg.
The requirements of individual
courses should reflect this philosophy and should contribute to the
student's concept of the place of research in professional activities.
In addition, the student is required to complete a Research Option as
part of his degree program. This option will include the Master's Research Paper for all departments and either a Departmental Paper or
Departmental Seminar, depending on the specific department involved.
In all cases the option will be determined by the department in which
the student is enrolled.
The Master's Research Paper
will offer the student an opportunity
research of limited scope pertaining to some area in a
school situation which needs study and improvement, or to some
specific aspect of the academic area in which the student is enrolled.

IN
HISTORY
Individual graduate courses in history fulfill partial requirefor the Masters Degree in Secondary Education in Social
Studies. Each course serves at least six common objectives:
1) Learning is student-oriented and thereby enables the student to pursue his
study at a pace and in the by-ways of interest commensurate with the
second objective, 2) mastery in depth of a broadly prescribed segment
of historical study; 3) the student acquires knowledge of the basic
literature of the subject of the course, and 4) reviews fundamental
research experience in the primary literature of a topic suitable to
both student interest and course content; 5) the student learns, often
by precept, new informational and interpretative approaches to the
presentation of the discipline of history generally and of the content
of course specifically.
And finally, and most important, 6) the student acquires a deeper appreciation of his own professional commitment to the pursuit of understanding through history.

Cumulatively, courses in history enable the student to command

LOCATION
Situated on a hill overlooking the beautiful Susquehanna River,
the Bloomsburg State College campus of more than 100 acres is within
the town limits of Bloomsburg. This thriving community, with a population in excess of 10,000, is located 75 miles northeast of Harrisburg on U. S. Route II. Regularly scheduled public transportation is

HISTORY
The Bloomsburg State College has passed through many stages
since the founding of the Bloomsburg Academy in 1839. The Academy
became the Bloomsburg Literary Institute in 1856 and by 1869 was
designated as the Bloomsburg Literary Institute and State Normal
School.
In 1927 the Bloomsburg State Normal School, a name acquired in 1916, became the Bloomsburg State Teachers College. With
the change in name, the long-established program for the training of
elementary teachers was enlarged to include a four-year degree curriculum.
business teacher-training program was introduced in 1930
as a part of the expansion of curricular offerings for secondary school
teachers.
By 1950 the college was fully accredited by the Middle
States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, an accreditation
which was reaffirmed in 1960 and extended to include a program of
graduate studies. This same year the college reached another historic
milestone in its life as it became the Bloomsburg State College.

CAMPUS
For several years before college enrollments began
to soar. Presi-
dent Andruss and the Board of Trustees sensed the need for a coordinated long-range campus plan for building and development.
idea bore fruit in 1957
when Bloomsburg became
the
first
The
State Teach-
Pennsylvania to have a campus plan approved by the
Department of Public Instruction. The development of the campus
plan has been accompanied by the most extensive building program in
the history of the college.
Since 1956 the General State Authority
has listed for Bloomsburg twenty-eight projects totaling more than
ers College in
$23,000,000.
4
Twelve of these projects have been completed or will be completed
They include:
during 1967, at a cost of approximately $6,760,000.
College Commons (1956), Suthff Hall (1959). New North Hall
Dormitory for Men (1960), an extension of utilities (1960), facilities
for Special Education (1961), East and West Hall Dormitories for
Women (1964), two additions which have doubled the capacity of
the heating plant (1964), new air-conditioned Library (1966), and a
new air-conditioned Auditorium to seat 2,000 (1967). Construction
began in 1966 on another extension of utilities and a dormitory for
300 men costing $1,800,000.
Construction has also been started on another Men's Dormitory
(672) and a Science and Classroom building. Both are scheduled for
completion in September, 1968 at a total cost exceeding $5,000,000.
Funds have been allocated and preliminary designs submitted for four
projects to be constructed at a cost of $2,736,000.
When these are
completed, the college v/ill have a new Athletic Field, an air-conditioned Dining Hall seating 1,000 students, the first phase of a Student
Center, and a new parking area for 350 cars. Architects' sketches for a
$1,204,000 extension of utilities will begin as soon as the current
revision of the campus plan is approved.
Planning and design work began in the summer of 1966 for a
(400) to be constructed on the site of old Science
Hall.
A classroom building near the new Library, a Field House Gymnasium seating 4,000 spectators and a Maintenance Building Garage.
Nearly $5,500,000 will be earmarked for the construction
Women's Dormitory
of these buildings.
Early in 1966 the college requested design and construction funds
of nearly $3,000,000 for land purchases, site development, parking and
recreation areas, and an administration - fiscal - supply building.
Requests have also been submitted for a classroom building, a Men's
Dormitory (300), a Women's Dormitory (300), and a Dining Hall
and Kitchen.
The revision of the campus plan will provide sites for additional
buildings on the recently acquired sixty-eight acres which formerly comprised the Bloomsburg Golf Course and the Magee tract.

GRADUATE STUDIES PROGRAM
On June 9, 1960, the State Council of Education of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania authorized the Bloomsburg State College to inaugurate a program of graduate studies and to confer the Master of
Education degree. Graduate courses for students desiring to secure
the Master of Education degree in Business Education, Elementary
Education. Biology, English, History, Reading, General Speech, Social
Studies. Speech Correction, and Special Education for the Mentally
Retarded are now offered by the College. The program is under the
direction of the Division of Graduate Studies operating within the framework of policies and curriculums developed and approved by the Graduate Council of the College.
PURPOSE AND OBJECTIVES
The need
for professional education for teachers extending bethe undergraduate level has long been recognized by educational
leaders throughout the United States. In recent years the Pennsylvania
State Council of Education has taken positive action to improve instruction in public schools by upgrading certification requirements for teachers.
This action indicates a clear recognition by the State Council of
the need for training beyond the Bachelor's degree. Mandated salary

PROFESSIONAL RESEARCH REQUIREMENT
Professional research is considered to be an integral part of all
graduate programs at Bloomsburg.
The requirements of individual
courses should reflect this philosophy and should contribute to the
student's concept of the place of research in professional activities.
In addition, the student is required to complete a Research Option as
part of his degree program. This option will include the Master's Research Paper for all departments and either a Departmental Paper or
Departmental Seminar, depending on the specific department involved.
In all cases the option will be determined by the department in which
the student is enrolled.
The Master's Research Paper
will offer the student an opportunity
research of limited scope pertaining to some area in a
school situation which needs study and improvement, or to some
specific aspect of the academic area in which the student is enrolled.
In-service teachers may wish to select a project which is concerned
with an existing problem area in the school system with which they are
currently associated.

HISTORY
Individual graduate courses in history fulfill partial requirefor the Masters Degree in Secondary Education in Social
Studies. Each course serves at least six common objectives:
1) Learning is student-oriented and thereby enables the student to pursue his
study at a pace and in the by-ways of interest commensurate with the
second objective, 2) mastery in depth of a broadly prescribed segment
of historical study; 3) the student acquires knowledge of the basic
literature of the subject of the course, and 4) reviews fundamental
research experience in the primary literature of a topic suitable to
both student interest and course content; 5) the student learns, often
by precept, new informational and interpretative approaches to the
presentation of the discipline of history generally and of the content
of course specifically.
And finally, and most important, 6) the student acquires a deeper appreciation of his own professional commitment to the pursuit of understanding through history.
