STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE AT SHIPPENSBURG

GENERAL I NFORMATI ON
Shippensburg is an Accredited College
Regional and national accrediting agencies have been
established in the United States to assure the public that
recognized standards are being met by colleges, and to
guard parents of prospective students from exploitation at
the hands of unworthy colleges. The acknowledged accredit­
ing agency for this region of the country is the Middle
States Association. This college is fully accredited by it.
The national accrediting agency for teachers colleges is the
National Council for the Accreditation of Teacher Educa­
tion, which has a membership of 314 fully accredited
teacher education institutions including the State Teachers
College at Shippensburg. The College is a member of the
National Association of Business Teacher-Training Insti­
tutions. It is also accredited by the Pennsylvania State
Council of Education.
Location
The College is located on the northwest edge of Ship­
pensburg, a town of approximately seven thousand people,
situated in the beautiful Cumberland Valley, forty miles
southwest of Harrisburg on U. S. Route 11. Carlisle, the
county seat of Cumberland County, is located twenty-two
miles from Shippensburg toward Harrisburg; and Chambersburg, the county seat of Franklin County, eleven miles
in the opposite direction. The College is less than ten miles
south of the Blue Mountain Exchange on the well-known
Pennsylvania Turnpike. Gettysburg^ the county seat of
Adams County, with its famous battlefield, now a national
shrine, is but thirty miles southeast of Shippensburg. Rich
farm lands, broad meadows, and delightful woodlands
bounded by mountains to the north and south characterize
this valley which is one of the richest agricultural sections
of the country.
History



Originally known as the Cumberland Valley State Nor­
mal School, the institution was founded in 1871. The first
class was graduated in 1874. For more than fifty years

16

THE TEACHERS COLLEGE HERALD

the school continued to serve as a State Normal School,
graduating students prepared and legally qualified to teach
in the public schools of the Commonwealth. After 1922, high
school graduation was required for admission to the insti­
tution. In 1926 the State Council of Education authorized
four-year curriculums based upon high school graduation.
In August, 1927, by authority o f the General Assembly,
this institution became a college with the right to grant
degrees. Its name was changed to the State Teachers Col­
lege at Shippensburg.
The principals and presidents of the college have been
as follows: George P. Beard, 1872-75; I. N. Hays, 1875-78;
E. A. Angell 1878-79; B. S. Potter, 1879-82; S. B. Heiges,
1882-86; J. F. McCreary, 1886-89; G.M.D. Eckles, 18891907; S. A. Martin, 1907-13; Ezra Lehman, 1913-31; Al­
bert L. Rowland, 1932-45; Levi Gilbert, 1945-48; Harry L.
JKriner, 1948-56; Ralph E. Heiges, 1956-

Campus
The campus consists of approximately one hundred
fifty acres with two fully equipped athletic fields, Eckles
Field and Heiges Field, ten tennis courts, a quarter mile
track with a two-twenty straight away, an archery range,
and an open-air Shakespearean theatre.
The entire campus has been carefully landscaped with
beautiful shrubs, trees, flowers and convenient driveways.
The fourteen all brick buildings on the campus are arrang­
ed in a curving line on the crest o f a hill, sloping gently to
the southeast and around a quadrangle in the center of the
campus.
Buildings
OLD MAIN, located in the front center and highest
-part of the campus, is the oldest building. It was first
used in 1871. It has been modernized at various times. Its
beautiful tower can be seen for miles in any direction. The
first floor includes the offices o f the Business Manager, the
Snack Bar, Bookstore, Post Office, Dispensary, accommo­
dations for commuting students, and several supply rooms.
’The second floor includes the offices of the President, Dean
o f Instruction, Director of Student Teaching and Placement,

SHIPPENSBURG COLLEGE ISSUE

17

Director of Admissions, ten classrooms, a number of faculty
offices and the “ Old Main” auditorium. The third and
fourth floors are used for the men’s dormitory.
HORTON HALL, the dormitory for women, was built
in 1894 and is located west of “ Old Main.” It is joined with
“ Old Main” by a bridge on the second floor level. Renova­
tions made in 1950 provided a lobby for each of the four
floors, sixteen additional rooms for students on the first
floor, and two indoor fire proof stairways which replace
the old outside fire escapes.
ROWLAND HALL was built in 1939. It is located on
the east campus, and is used to accommodate a Laboratory
School for grades one to six. The south wing provides of­
fices and classrooms for the Elementary Education Depart­
ment. A beautiful auditorium is attached to the building
for the use of the Laboratory School. The office of the
principal, health room, a library, art room, and service
rooms are located in this building.
ALUMNI GYMNASIUM was built in 1937 and is lo­
cated north of Horton Hall with its main entrance facing
the quardrangle from the west. There is an entrance to
Heiges Athletic Field on the ground floor. It has a large
gymnasium floor, locker rooms for men and women, a
swimming pool, a wrestling and boxing room, and a recre­
ation room which is also used as a classroom for the physi­
cal education classes.
SHEARER HALL is the science building which was
erected in 1937 on the east campus facing the quadrangle
from the south. Located in the ground floor are an advance
biology laboratory, a classroom, and a greenhouse. A psy­
chological laboratory, an elementary biology laboratory, a
physical science laboratory, and a classroom are located on
the main floor. On the second floor are located two physics
laboratories, an elementary chemical laboratory,' and ad­
vanced chemistry, laboratory with a balance room, and a
classroom. Each laboratory has a supply room and an of­
fice.
EZRA LEHMAN MEMORIAL LIBRARY was built
in 1931 and is located on the east campus facing the quad­
rangle from the north. This beautiful building is extreme-

18

THE TEACHERS COLLEGE HERALD

ly well-planned for excellent library service. A very mod­
em and complete visual education laboratory is located on
the ground floor.
MEMORIAL AUDITORIUM was completed in 1951.
It is located at the east end o f the campus facing the quad­
rangle from the east. This is a modem building with
large stage. The seating capacity is 800. An amphitheatre
room for band, orchestra, and glee club practice, music
rooms, dramatic and speech rooms, and a dramatic work­
shop, are also located in this excellent building.
KRINER HALL, a beautiful new dining hall, was oc­
cupied early in 1958. It is located north of “ Old Main”
facing the quadrangle from the north. This is an excep­
tionally well planned building which provides the college
with ultra modem dining and kitchen facilities. The din­
ing room is designed to seat 800. The ground floor of this
building is a large central storage room for the College.
STEWART HALL, located east of “ Old Main,” was
built in 1893 and was used for many years as a gymnasium.
It was renovated in 1949 as a Student Activity Center with
game rooms, dance floor, kitchen and conference room.
GILBERT HALL was built in 1912 as an elementary
training school and is located southwest of Horton Hall. In
1946 it was reconditioned for the Business Education De­
partment. ’
THE HEATING PLANT was built in 1952 replacing
the old one built in 1898. This new modem plant
uses hard coal and is equipped with smoke and automatic
controls.
The UTILITY BUILDING was built in 1937 and is locat­
ed on the northern edge of the campus west of the tennis
courts. This building contains the laundry, paint shop, car­
penter shop, plumbing shop, machine shop, storage room
and garages. An auxiliary heat plant is attached which
furnishes hot water and steam for the summer needs. This
permits the main heating plant to be closed.

The PRESIDENT'S RESIDENCE is a three story brick
house located on the southwest corner of the campus.

It contains a collection of over 48,000 books arranged on
convenient stacks. The magazine racks carry over 300 cur­
rent publications. There is ample space and efficient up-todate facilities for study and research.
A collection
of over 11,000 pictures, a clipping file, a large pamphlet
collection and an interesting group of textbooks and courses
of study al1 serve to meet the needs of the college students.
Students can readily find recreational reading in the field of

ians are on duty at all times to assist students in finding
material and to make the library the real heart of the col­
legiate work.
Audio-Visual Aids
The Audio-Visual Education Department, which in­
cludes the Audio-Visual Aids Library and the Audio-Visual
Education Laboratory and a Projection Room, is located on
the North Ground Floor of the College Library. More than
1500 audio-visual aids for use in public schools, campus
classes, and student teaching are circulated by the AudioVisual Aids Library. This library is a depository for aids

college classes. This Laboratory also maintains a display of
more than 1300 teaching aids, such as exhibits, models,
mock-ups, dioramas, specimens, and objects.
Social Program
Shippensburg is a co-educational college. The enroll­
ment of men is over half the total student body. Profes­
sional and social activities of many kinds are carried on
throughout the year consisting o f assemblies, dramatics,
athletics, field days, intramural contests of various kinds,
dances, lectures and entertainments. Conferences and trips
to places of historic, scientific, and educational interest
occur frequently under proper supervision.

THE TEACHERS COLLEGE HERALD

Religious Life
Shippensburg provides opportunities for wholesome
and religious church life. At the beginning of each semester,
the names of all students are forwarded to the clergymen
of the churches designated by the students, and they are
urged to continue their church duties and obligations. Many
of the churches have activities to which the students are

Conduct
The College recognizes that the standard of conduct
becoming a prospective teacher is so high that it excludes
all persons whose habits and conduct are not worthy of
imitation by children who may be placed under their in­
struction. Since teachers must first be able to discipline
themselves, it is the aim o f the college to consistently cul­
tivate right habits of self-discipline on the part of its stu­
dents.
College Living Accommodations
Students at Shippensburg State Teachers College live
in dormitories, in their own homes, or in approved resi­
dences. Because of crowded conditions, seniors are request­
ed to live in town and thus allow the maximum number of
freshmen to have dormitory experience. The dormitory
rooms have single beds furnished with pillows, sheets, pil­
low slips, and one blanket. Students should furnish a 6tudy
lamp, extra blankets, towels, wash cloths, and soap. Many
students provide window curtains, dresser scarf, bed spread,
and small throw rugs. Radios are permitted if operated with
due consideration for others. Other electrical appliances are
not permitted in the rooms.
A list of available town rentals will be provided stu­
dents upon application so they mbay locate a room of their
own choice.

THE PURPOSE OF THE COLLEGE
This college is a co-educational, professional school for
the preparation of teachers. The completion of any one of its
five curriculums leads to a Bachelor of Science degree in
Education and to certification for teaching in the public
schools of Pennsylvania. The college believes that the cur­
riculums also afford a general and liberal preparation for
complete living, and that such professional training is an
effective preparation for parenthood and for constructive
citizenship. We believe, further, that the teaching profes­
sion provides a most significant social service, as upon the
efficiency of the public school and upon the intelligence
and devotion of its teachers depend in large measure the
hope and destiny of the nation.
We believe that our students can reach a high level of
self-realization and professional efficiency through self
discipline, intellectual achievement, and social, moral, and
spiritual growth. We also believe that the nature of the edu­
cational process is growth and guided development of the
individual. Believing in these things, therefore, we are
striving to develop the individual student to the greatest
possible extent within his capacities, so that he can live
successfully, demonstrate personal integrity, and make his
contribution to society. We also strive to use the democratic
process in the administration of the college and in the re­
lations among administrators, faculty, and students, as its
use is considered essential to the student’s daily thinking
and living.
To that end, the administration and the faculty of this
college are working together to demonstrate these tenets
through the following objectives:
1.

To maintain a cooperative faculty continuously
growing in professional interest and ability.

2.

To recruit and admit, in so far as possible, the more
desirable graduates from approved high schools.

3.

To evaluate the curriculums continuously in view
of adaptation to specific current needs.

4.

To foster sound learning, broad cultural back­
ground and ethical professional knowledge, atti­
tudes, and techniques.

26

THE TEACHERS COLLEGE HERALD

5.

To provide a program of curricular experiences
through which the student will develop academic,
social and personal growth.

6.

To maintain an effective cooperative organization
for the fluid articulation between college classes
and practices within the training schools, so that
students may clearly recognize the application of
professional knowledge.

7.

To give the students practical experience in the
democratic processes of group planning in execut­
ing activities of common interest.

8.

To encourage students to recognize the value of
worthy family relationships and of the services to
be rendered by teachers in a community.

9.

To provide opportunities for the student to acquire
both the knowledge of and the appreciation for the
WORK OF THE TEACHER.

The college aims to attain its objectives through the
processes outlined in a set of policies adopted by the faculty.
Committees have the responsibility of making these policies
meaningful or revising them in keeping with the needs of
the college.

THE TEACHERS COLLEGE HERALD

academic work, and have proven themselves to be worthy
college citizens. Those positions are confined to work in the
kitchen, dining rooms, library, offices, and in janitorial
duties. Application for such employment should be made
to the President of the College on regular forms provided.
There are occasional work opportunities for part-time
employment in the community. Students who have had ex­

ous groups and indivduals for the purpose of helping stu­
dents who need financial aid. The fund is administered and
controlled by a board composed of three alumni members,
the College President, and the College Business Manager.
A member of the Junior or Senior Class who is in need
of assistance may secure an application blank from the
President of the College and apply for aid according to the
constitution adopted to administer the fund. Loans may be
made to students who are in the last half of their college
career. The loan has been limited to one hundred dollars
per semester, although more can be secured, the exact
amount determined by the board in accordance with the
merits of the case and the status of the fund.
This fund now has a total of over $8,000 a large per­
centage of which has been in use. Some of the money has
been given in the form of so-called Alumni Scholarship
Loans in memory of, or in honor of, certain individuals and
some has been left by classes either at graduation time or at
a later class reunion. The Class of 1904 originated the fund
at graduation and added to it at their fiftieth reunion. The
following is a list of the recorded and known donors along
with the names thus honored:

NATIONAL DEFENSE STUDENT LOAN PROGRAM
A Student Loan Program, authorized by the National
Defense Education Act of 1958, has been established at the
college.
Application forms are secured from the Director of
Admissions. The Director of Admissions serves as the in­
stitutional representative. Policies and procedures for this
Student Loan Program are developed and reviewed by the
Admissions Committee.
Special considerations for loans are given to students
with superior academic backgrounds who express a desire
to teach in elementary or secondary schools.
Applicants must meet three specific qualifications as
set forth in the Education Act.
1.

Applicants must be enrolled or have been accepted
for enrollment as a full-time student.

2. # Applicants, in the opinion of the institution, must
be capable o f maintaining a good standing in their
course or study.
3.

Applicants must be in need of the amount of the
loan to pursue their course of study.

Students enrolled in the college should have at least a
1.9 grade point average to qualify for special consideration.
Students accepted for enrollment should be in the upper
quarter of their high school class to qualify for special con­
sideration.
Students who do not meet these requirements and are
in need of financial assistance may apply. Approval of loans
in these cases will depend upon the availability of the funds.
The amount available in the Student Loan Program and
the reasonable cost of attending the college mean that most
loans wil be for $100 to $400 per college term, depending
upon the student’s need.
All of the provisions of the National Defense Education
Act must be compiled within the administration of this pro­
gram.

TESTING PROGRAM
The following testing program has been adopted by the
Board of State Teachers College Presidents:
1. To assist in the counseling of students, the college
shall require each freshman to take a recognized aptitude
test and a test on Communications such as the Cooperative
English Test.
2. In order to determine the student’s achievement for
further guidance the college may administer to all sopho­
more students the Cooperative Tests in English, Contempo­
rary Affairs and General Culture published by the Educa­
tional Testing Service. A careful study of each individual
student by selected faculty members near the close of the
sophomore year is also recommended.
3. In order to measure the academic success of the stu­
dent as well as the effectiveness of the instructional pro­
gram of the college, the college may administer, at the re­
quest and expense of the student, a recognized terminal test.
ACADEMIC PROGRESS
Students progress in classes is constantly appraised by
the teachers who schedule regular office hours to enable stu­
dents to confer regarding their academic achievements or
particular problems with course work. In the middle of
each semester the teachers send reports through the Dean’s
Office to individual students commending them if their work
has been of exceptionally high quality or warning them if
it has been of such poor quality that there is a question as
to whether the course can be passed unless marked improve­
ment is demonstrated. A t the end of each semester a final
grade is recorded on the students’ permanent record cards.
Student Load
The normal semester work load is sixteen credit hours.
A program of more than eighteen hours requires approval
of the Dean or the Advisory Committee and is usually de­
pendent upon a past record average of B or better. Stu­
dents with heavy out-of-college work schedules, those with
health problems, and Those on academic probation are ad­
vised or required to schedule less than the usual number o f
classes.

52

THE TEACHERS COLLEGE HERALD

Classification of Students
Students are classified according to the number of sem­
ester hours completed as follows: 0-29 semester hours,
freshman; 30-59 semester hours, sophomore; 60-89 semester
hours, junior; 90 or more semester hours, seniors.
Marking and Point System
A five-point marking system (A, B, C, D, F,) is used
to indicate the quality of academic work. A indicates that
originality has been in evidence in attaining the objectives
of the course in a superior manner; B indicates that the
•objectives of the course have been met in an above average
manner, but that there has been little evidence of original­
ity ; C indicates that the assigned work has been done satis­
factorily; D indicates that the work has been below aver­
age but is passing; F indicates that the objectives of the
course have not been met.
Inc. indicates that a student who otherwise has done
satisfactory work with passing grades has failed to com­
plete, because of some excusable emergency (illness, death
in the family, etc.), certain course requirements, such as
written reports, laboratory work, or the final examination.
The incompletes must be removed by the student before the
end o f the ninth week of the succeeding semester or automa­
tically the grade will be recorded as F.
The academic average of each student is determined by
assigning specific quality points to each letter marks: A, 3
points; B, 2 points; C, 1 point; D, 0 points. The students
total quality-point ratio is computed by:
1. multiplying the semester hours of credit in each
course by the quality points of the grade earned,
2. totaling the credit hours and the quality points for
all courses completed.
3. dividing the total number of quality points by the
total number of credit hours completed.
Standards of Work Required
Students are required to achieve a satisfactory level of
progress each semester towards graduation by maintaining
cumulative quality-point ratios equal to or better than these
mínimums:

SHIPPENSBURG COLLEGE ISSUE

5:?

Freshmen, end of first semester .50 (— 8 quality points)
end of second semester
.60 (^-13 quality points)
Sophomores, end of first semester .75 (— 12 quality points)
end of second semester .85 (— 10 quality points)
Juniors, end of first semester
end of second semester

.90 (— 8 quality points)
.95 (— 6 quality points)

Seniors, both semesters 1.00 (No quality point deficiencies)
The Dean’s List
A Dean’s List is published at the end of each semester
o f the academic year comprising the names of those students
who have made a B or better average (2.0).
Only the course work completed in the current semester
is considered in computing this score. It does not include
the grades made in Student Teaching and Professional
Practicum.
The achievement of the high academic status which this
listing represents is a great honor to the student’s ability
and his willingness to work.
The college has prepared a special program of supple­
mentary experiences for these students which enables them
to achieve a higher measure of the educational objectives of
the college.
Probationary Status
If a student’s quality-point ratio drops below the re­
quired minimum as indicated, his academic record will be
specially reviewed by the Dean and the Advisory Committee.
If it is the first occasion, he will be placed on probationary
status and he will receive special counseling aid from his
schedule advisor and his teachers.
Under some excusable circumstances a student may
continue on probation for a second semester by special ap­
proval of the Dean and the Advisory Committee. This final
probationary status, reported immediately to parents auto­
matically imposes limitations on the social and recreational
activities o f the student and requires a reduction in his
class-hour load (not more than twelve semester hours of
advanced work). Students are advised to re-take courses
in which they have received below-average marks and the
mark subsequently received will be the only one used to

54

THE TEACHERS COLLEGE HERALD

determine the quality points earned in the course. Students
on final probation who are unable to show the necessary
improvement during the semester may be requested to with­
draw from the college.
The Dean’s Advisory Committee reviews at the end o f
each semester the records of students on probation and will
remove a student from that status when his current aca­
demic record improves to the extent that they become con­
fident that he could carry a normal course load and earn a
C average.
Transfers from Other Colleges and Other
Advance Standing Students
A student attending another college who desires to
transfer to Shippensburg should write to the Director of
Admissions. As part of the process of being admitted to
Shippensburg he must furnish a statement of honorable dis­
missal and an official transcript of his academic record from
his former college. Advanced credit will be given by the
Dean for those courses previously taken and evaluated as
equivalent to those provided in the curriculum of this col­
lege.
All advanced credit students seeking a degree or certi­
fication fulfillment must plan on:
1. A minimum program of one year’s work at Ship­
pensburg.
2. A maximum limit of thirty-two semester hours of
course work taken in extension classes.
3. All course selections subject to the prior approval
o f the Dean.
Student Teaching
Student teaching is a most essential part of teacher
preparation and at Shippensburg covers a full time assign­
ment for one semester. Learning proper professional atti­
tudes, legal requirements, pupil records, extra-class activi­
ties, community contacts as well as classroom techniques are
necessary parts of this experience.

Experienced non-degree teachers, graduates of other
colleges or others who need special assignments in student
teaching will have their individual programs planned and
approved by the Dean o f Instruction. Credit for student
teaching will not be granted for prior teaching experience.
REQUIREMENTS FOR GRADUATION
As a fulfillment of its obligation to the Commonwealth
and to its public schools, the College has established high
personal and professional standards of achievement and
promise for its students which must be met without ques­
tion before graduation is approved by the faculty or the
administration of the college. In so far as a college can
evaluate students in these matters, graduates o f Shippensburg will have passed rigid appraisals of their degree of
loyalty to country, of moral responsibility to youth, and of
devotion to high principles of education and citizenship. In
addition to these broad professional requirements the Col­
lege has established the following specific academic require­
ments :
1. The completion of a minimum of 128 semester hours
credit in the selected curriculum.

56

requirements in effect in the selected curriculum.
3. A quality point— semester hour ratio of at least 1.00

5. A satisfactory history of development in Student
Teaching attested to by a minimum grade of C and
the approval of the Director of Student Teaching.
6. A satisfactory program of extra-curricular activi­

tificate in the fields or areas in which the graduate is pre­
pared.
A graduate of the College is expected to participate
in the Baccalaureate and Commencement services unless
unusual circumstances warrant graduation in absentia.
This permission can be granted only by the President of
the College.
FACULTY ADVISERS
Students attending this college receive personal and
academic advisement and guidance not only from the Dean
of Men and Women but also from their classroom teachers
who maintain extensive office hours for this purpose. The
genuine concern for students and their individual problems
by the teachers and the administrators of the college is soon
evident to beginning freshmen. They appreciate these con­
siderations for them through their years at college and re­
member it after graduation. It largely accounts for the
exceptional quality o f the alumni relations of Shippensburg.
Students know that they are welcome in the office of
the head of their department or in the office of the Dean of

SHIPPENSBURG COLLEGE ISSUE

57

Instruction where they may discuss any aspect of their
work or their program o f studies.
Students with exceptional abilities are encouraged to
take special or extra work to develop more fully their tal­
ents. Students who experience academic difficulties are
aided to ascertain the nature of their problems and assisted
in finding a satisfactory solution.
Each students has a faculty schedule adviser who knows
.his academic record completely and assists him in the selec­
tion of a program of courses for each semester prior to
registration.
CERTIFICATION OF TEACHERS
To insure a consistently high quality o f instruction in
the public schools of the Commonwealth all teachers are
required by law to have a teaching certificate which is a
legal permit to teach issued by the Department of Public
Instruction to an individual who has completed certain spe­
cific course requirements in the area or areas of instruc­
tion or grade level indicated.
The curriculums of this college prepare students to re­
ceive Provisional College Certificates in Elementary Educa­
tion, Business Education, Secondary Education, and Public
School Nursing. In Business and Secondary Education the
certification is specific to those sequences or major and
minor fields in which a student has chosen to specialize. The
Provisional College Certificate is in effect for three years of
teaching only, and must be replaced with the Permanent
College Certificate. The Permanent Certificate is issued
-after the completion of six hours post-graduate work in pro­
fessional education. While these certifications are legally
valid in Pennsylvania only, the educational standards on
which they are based are equal to or are higher than those
of many other states.
A College Certificate for Elementary Education can be
extended to include the teaching of specific subjects in Sec­
ondary Education by completing the following:
a. Twelve semester hours in professional education
directly related to secondary teaching (including
six semester hours of secondary student teaching).

58

THE TEACHERS COLLEGE HERALD

b. Eighteen semester hours in the special field such
as: English, social studies, math, etc., in which cer­
tification is desired.
A College Certificate for Secondary Education can be
extended to include Elementary Education by completing
thirty semester hours in professional education courses ap­
plicable to the teaching in elementary grades (including six
semester hours in student teaching in the elementaryschool) .
PLACEMENT
The College maintains a Placement Bureau as part o f
its public service. Its purpose is to aid students and gradu­
ates in obtaining desirable positions as teachers. It will ren­
der assistance to school oficials in locating well qualified1
teachers who fit the requirements of vacancies in the schools
of the Commonwealth.
Seniors are requested to enroll with the Placement Bu­
reau early in their senior year. While the Placement Bu­
reau does not guarantee a position, it offers opportunities
without cost which would not otherwise be available.
Alumni and school officials are urged to use this school serv­
ice and to cooperate in making the service more reliable and
worthwhile for both the student and the schools to be served.

ous fields of teaching has been provided.
SELECTION OF CURRICULUM
Curriculum and areas of specialization should be select­
ed with care and_ with the advice of college authorities.
-Many students will undertake graduate study after com­
pleting the undergraduate preparation for teaching. Since
requirements for admission to graduate schools vary widely,
not only with different colleges, but with the fields of study
within a given college, undergraduates are advised to ex­
plore during the junior and senior year the opportunities
jmd requirements for graduate study in their chosen fields
to enable them to meet the special requirements wherever
possible.

THE TEACHERS COLLEGE HERALD

ELEMENTARY EDUCATION CURRICULUM
The Elementary Curriculum at Shippensburg State
Teachers College is a four-year course which provides a
broad academic background in addition to professional edu­
cation and leads to the degree of Bachelor of Science in
Education. It prepares young men and women to teach in
the elementary schools of the Commonwealth.
Elementary Education students share in the broad
program of general education provided for all students of
the college, including courses in the Humanities, Natural
Sciences, and Social Sciences.
Professionally students in the elementary curriculum
are taught to be versatile persons. They plan and guide
the child’s program for the whole day; they observe the
child’s application of skills and knowledges and see how
growth in one area of a child’s life is reflected in growth
in other areas. They know how and when to help the child
learn to read or to grow in arithmetical skills and to com­
municate ideas to others. They teach Social Studies and
Science in a manner that results in better understanding as.
well as increased knowledge. They bring the creative en­
richment of art, music, and literature into the lives of many"
children who know little about it.
By study, direct observation, and preparation elemen­
tary students grow in understanding various methods of
teaching and become acquainted with skillfull use of cur­
riculum materials and specialized equipment. They crit­
ically examine various courses of study and the newer tech­
niques of measuring and judging children’s social and aca­
demic growth. They complete their professional educa­
tion with a full semester of supervised student teaching.
Graduates of the Elementary Curriculum will receive
a College Provisional Certificate permitting them to teach
kindergarten and grades one to six inclusive and in grades,
seven and eight (if included in an elementary school pro­
gram) .

sary for teachers in junior and senior high schools where
young people are prepared for both citizenship and for a

lum are fully informed concerning man’s cultural inherit­
ances, his spiritual and moral development, his biological
evolution, and his scientific discoveries. They are aware
of the effect of education in all stages of man’s historic de­
velopment; and they study comprehensively the contempo­
rary world with its ongoing problems stemming from the
past and those particular to the present, and thoughtfully
determine the responsibilities education must assume in
preparing young people for the contemporary American so­
ciety.
All Secondary Curriculum student s engage in a com­
mon progra min the study of man’s thinking and learning
processes and his observable varaitions in abilities. They
also study modern schools, educational procedures, methods
and objectives, an dcomplete their education with a full
semetser’s program of supervised student teaching.
The Secondary Education Curriculum also includes in
its four-year program of preparation a large amount of
study in the traditional fields of learning in which the stu­
dent may specialize with a major or minor and in which he
can be certified to teach. These are the following:
English
Speech
History
Social Studies
Geography
Languages

Mathematics
Sciences: _

b. Chemistry
c. Biology

A student in this curriculum will elect to major in one
of these fields and a minor in another. He will schedule
courses under faculty advisement which enable him to com­
plete the proper course sequences and requirements needed
for graduation and certificatio in each.

ments for all students and, in addtion, show the required

in addition^o the required 24 credits in Chemistry thereby making the total credits
32 hours.”
PHYSICS— "Students who select Physics as a First Field with Chemistry as a Sec­
ond Field may count the required in Chemistry I and “ tow arfs the Second
thereby reducing the First Field to 24 hours. I f any area other than Chemistry
