History
Ninety-five years have gone by since Edinboro
was first chaltered as a State Normal School
ninety-five years of growth and service to th~
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. The beginnings
of the college were laid in 1857, when a band of
Scotch-Irish farmers grouped together and founded
a private academy at Edinboro by popular subscription. But it was not until 1861 that it was
chartered by the Commonwealth as Pennsylvania's
second Normal School,
A

great orwar stn e was t en m 1914, w,hen
the Commonwealth purchased Edinboro Normal
School, In 1926, alerted to the need for better
educated teachers for its schools, Pennsylvania
made Edinboro a TeachersCollege offering a fouryear curriculum leading to the degree of Baahelor

audio-visual aids laboratory, Recitation Hall, built
early in the history of ,the college, provides classroom space, The Crawford Gymnasium, with a
s,:"imming P?Ol,included among its excellent facilitIes, was built m 1939, Loveland Hall is named
for ,the late Mr. Frank Loveland of Corry, who for
m~ny. years wa~ a, trustee of the College, This
bu!~dmg was buIlt m 1930 and housesthe Art and

was erected by the Federal Works Agency in 1947
and was converted into a women's dormitory in
1956,
In 1952 the New Dormitory for women was
completed,The old gymnasium was rededicated for
use as a College Union on Homecoming Day,

Students will be released from the college infirmary.only by a signed statemen~from either. a

physl0an, or the college physl0an or nurse.
Parents will be notified by t:he college nurse of
the illness of any student who spends one or more
full days in the infirmary. Any student who wishes
to do so may employ his own physician at his own
expense. In such casesthe college nurse will do
everything possible to carry out the family physician's advice for medical treatment during the
student's stay in the infirmary. If it is necessary
to have a prescription filled at the drug store, the
~tudent will be responsible for the cost.
In addition to education and diseaseprevention
services,the Heal~h Service physician is available
for consultation during his office hours on campus.
Annual physical examinations are required of

Health an(t Infirmary Service
The college employs a full-time resident nurse
and a part-time physician. Bot:h are directly concerned with promoting good physical and mental
health among college students. In addition to space
for a dispensaryoffice, an infirmary of nine beds is
available for the care of minor illnesses and isolation of students with suspected communicable
diseases. Surgical cases and acutely ill students
other than isolation cases will be admitted only
until they can be transferred to other nearby or
home hospitals. Actual medical care is limited ,to
the prevention of illnesses and the emergency
treatment of medical and surgical conditions.
.Studentsliving on campus sh9:uld imme.diately

Extra-curricular Program
Every person who graduates from Edinboro and
becomes a teacher will be expected to assume
leadership in community life and school activities.
In a large percentage of casesthe teacher will be
expected to sponsor clubs and other student
groups. Therefore, it is very important that every
student in college become accustomed to certain
activities and familiar with the techniques of discussion, parliamentary law, record keeping, and ,the
general promotion of student activities. Even if a
teacher never becomes a club sponsor, the educational value of participation in these activities in
college is pef!haps as great as that of some course
of study. Therefore, i,t seems advisa:ble that each
student become a member of some club or other
activity aside from athletics.
In the College year of 1956-57, the following
plan of extra-curricular activities will be in effect:
1. At the beginning of the semestereach student
will ,be given the opportunity to choose any club
or activity in which he is interested.
2. A club or activity may be set up on petition
of not fewer ,than fifteen students with the approval of the Committee on Student Activities.
3. All organizations will provide for regular
meetings.
4. No meeting shall be 'held without at least one
faculty advisor present.
5. Each cl.ub or a~tivi,ty is to choose its own
Faculty AdvIsor subject to the consent of the
faculty member concerned and the approval of the
Committee on Student Activities and of the
President of the College. The Faculty Advisor is
not to be responsible for planning the program of
40

I

the aCtivity since his relationship is only advisory.
6. Each activity is to have a Secretary, whose
duty it shall be to record and report its membership and program to ,the Office of the Dean of
~ omen.

.Freshman
Customs
Bcyobserving freshman customs in the proper
spirit every student can acquire ,the qualities which
I
will make him a worthy member of ,his collegean attitude of friendliness towards all other college students, a respect for the standards and traditions of his school, and a familiarity with ,the
things that constitute its own special trademark,
i.e., its cheers, its Alma Mater and other songs.
In addition, the new student will learn that he belongs not only to the freshman class, but to the
college as a whole.
The meaning of and regula,tions for observing
these ~ustol?S w~ll be announced to all freshmen
at theIr OrIentation Program.
T,he following rules governing freshman customs have been set forth by the Student Council:
1. There shall be a "Big Sister" for every freshman girl.
2. A delegation of upperclassmen will arrive
early, before registration, for the purpose of meeting the freshmen who will arrive Saturday afternoon.
I
3: Ther~ will be a two-v:'eeks'Initi~tion ,~er.iod,
durmg which freshmen will wear 10 x 10 SIgnS
and dinks.
4. The 10"x 10" signs will be standard cards.
The individual names will ,belettered in by upperclass art students volunteering to do the ,task.
41.

i

5. Freshmen must learn the Alma Mater, cheers,
constitution, and obher contents of the Handbook
wi.thin the ,two weeks' period.

9. Make the acquaintance of your faculty
advisor and remember he stands ready to help you
if you have difficulties or problems.

6. At rhe end of the two weeks' period a "Little
Service" will be held, at which time dinks and
signs will be removed.
7. On Homecoming Day the freshmen will don
their dinks again and lead the parade wirh their
floa'
8~.Enforcement of these rules will be vested in
the Tribunal, which is the Student Council.
