The Academy became

Bloomsburg Literary Institute in 1856 and by 1869 was designated
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

business teachertraining program was introduced in 1930 as a part of the expansion of
curricu ar 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 Bloomsburg State College.

ACCREDITATION

CAMPUS
For several years before college enrollments began to soar, President Andruss and the Board of Trustees sensed the need for a coordinated long-range campus plan for building and development.
The
idea bore fruit in 1957 when Bloomsburg became the first State Teachers College in 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.

New

buildings at Bloomsburg include the College Commons (1956),
Hall (1959), the new North Hall Dormitory for Men (1960).
the East and West Hall Dormitories for Women (1964), the air-conditioned Andruss Library ( 1966), the air-conditioned Haas Auditorium
which seats 2,000 (1967), and the South Hall Dormitory for Men (1967).
Construction is presently nearing completion on another Men's DormiIn the near future the coltory and a Science and Classroom building.
lege will have a new Athletic Field, an air-conditioned Dining Hall seating 1,000, the first part of a new Student Center, additional parking
areas, a Women's Dormitory, another classroom building, a Field HouseGymnasium to seat 4,000, and new maintenance facilities. Additional
buildings will be erected on the lower campus as weli as the recently
acquired sixty-eight acres which formerly comprised the Bloomsburg
Golf Course.

GRADUATE STUDIES PR05RAM
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
The need

AND

OBJECTIVES

for professional education for teachers extending

beyond

the 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 schedules which
provide salary differentials for holders of master's degrees in the form
of higher

maximum

salaries

give additional recognition of the value of

graduate study.

The program
as

of graduate studies at Bloomsburg State College has
primary purpose the increasing of the competency of teachers in

its

Pennsylvania.

To

achieve

this,

the following specific objectives, as they

have been developed.
To encourage independent thought and initiative and develop
problem-solving ability.
To provide an incentive for continuing professional growth.
To develop a basic understanding of research methods and techniques so that reports of research in the field of education may
be correctly interpreted and evaluated.
To develop a more comprehensive understanding of the teaching and learning processes.
To provide opportunity for advanced study in a selected field of

ADVISEMENT OF STUDENTS
Each student admitted to graduate study in a degree program will
be assigned a program advisor who will help in the determination of the
program of study.
Normally the chairman, or some other designated
faculty member, of the department in which the student is enrolled will
be the advisor. Upon approval of the Director of Graduate Studies, and
upon the recommendation of the department chairman, the student will
be permitted to enroll for the Professional Research Project if this research option is chosen.
At this time a major research advisor and a

administration of the final oral examination.

EXAMINATIONS
All students are required to take the Miller Analogies Test at the
time of application for admission to graduate study.
The time schedule
and other information relative to taking these examinations is announced
by the Director of Graduate Studies and may be obtained at the office
of the Division of Graduate Studies in Sutliff Hall, Room No. 201.
A
comprehensive written and or oral examination covering the field of
specialization may be required before the Master's degree is conferred.
