EXTENSION SERVICE
STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE
SHIPPENSBURG, PEN NSYLVAN IA
ENNSYLVAXIA teachers have shown, during the
last decade and-a-half, a professional attitude and
advancement nowhere equalled in this country,
Fifteen years ago thousands of our schools were
taught by persons having no more than an eighth grade
education ancT little or no professional training.
Today Pennsylvania is in the forefront, having a lar
ger percentage of trained teachers than any other state
in the Union, yet there are among our sixty-odd thousand
teachers a large number who fail to reach present day
standards. Not only this, the State Council of Educa
tion, the Board of Teachers College Presidents, the Com
mittee of Presidents of Teachers Colleges and Liberal
Arts Colleges, and the Commission for.the Study of Edu
cational Problems, all have endorsed a program favoring
a four-year post high school training for all Pennsylvania
teachers, elementary as well as secondary. This program
does not, of course, mean the invalidating of credentials
of teachers at present certified, but any one easily may
envisage the position in which the teachers who do not
have these qualifications will be placed when this pro
gram becomes effective. Wise teachers who wish to be
prepared for advancement under the higher standards of
the near future will take the earliest opportunity to ob
tain the further professional requirements represented
by the baccalaureate degree in education.
A college education is expensive for several reasons.
In the first place the student must stop earning and is,
therefore, without an income (Turing his college career.
In the second place, the student is away from home and
must pay for boards lodging and other services which the
home usually supplies at a low cost.
Realizing how difficult it is for the average teacher
to give up his earning power to enter college, the Shippensburg State Teachers College is offering courses in
extension which will enable the student to earn credits
toward a college certificate while continuing to earn his
salary. Then too, there are many high school graduates
of the past few years, who, because of the stress of the
times, find themselves unable to finance a college course.
To such students our extension classes are open. The
B
work offered is distinctly college grade and carries with
it credit toward a college degree.
In its extension service the college will offer for the
school year 1933-34 both intra-mural and extra-mural
courses, beginning on Saturday, September 16, as de
scribed on the following pages.

EXTENSION SERVICES
In addition to the work offered by this college for

for work along special lines for which no credit is given.
This service was organized for the purpose of extending
the facilities Jtf the college beyond its own campus and
classrooms; While the college feels that its first obliga
tion is to its students, and to teachers,; and schools of its
service area, its purpose is sufficiently broad to enable it
to serve every educational, community, and social de
mand made upon it', The agency through which this
broader service will be carried on is the Department of

c. Music and Art — There are many school districts
in the area served by this college without supervisors in
Music and Art. Those superintendents who find diffi

larger groups and render such assistance as they need in
