band of hardy Scotch-Irish farmers grouped together and founded a private aca.demy at Edin."

Hall, the women's dormitory,
was built during
the administration
of John F. Bigler. Reeder,
the men's dormitory, was built in 1907 and named in honor of one of the early donors of the
school. Academy Hall, known recently as Music
Hall, is the oldest building on the campus, having been built about 1857. Normal Hall was built
in 1~7 and in 1891 was considerably enlarged.
Today it contains the administrative
offices, the
library, several class rooms, and the old auditorium. Recitation Hall, built early in the history
of the school, is uniquely constructed;
it still
provides recitation room space. The New Gyrnnasium, with its excellent athletic facilities, now
overshadows the old gymnasium

LIBRARY

The entering
student at Edinboro
State
Teachers College soon discovers the educational
and recreational
facilities available in our College Library. Some twenty-five
thousand volumes
offer a wide range for reference and study. A
generous fiction section and 175 magazines and
periodicals give the student an opportunity
to
fill leisure hours with enjoyable reading.
Our librar'Y has the distinction
of being one
of the few in the state which
employs
open
shelves for all books, thus allowing all students
easy access to the volumes. Of course, this systern must be carefully
supervised and consequently certain rules must be ob~erved.

FRESHMAN

REGULATIONS

It is the earnest desire of ~ll uppe~classmen
and faculty to become acquainted wIth all of
you as soon as possible; the following regulations
have been designated to aid us in doing so. Get
off to a good start by letting us know that you
are a good sport.

Freshmen
shall attend
all
meetings,
classes, social and athletic events.
The power of interpreting
the above-stated
rules shall be vested in the Student Council.

I
TIPS

TO

FRESHMEN

1. Freshman men and women shall wear
during the first two weeks of school a
4x6 inch pedigree
card bearing
their
names and home address. These shall be
worn on the shirt lapel or blouse.
2. Dinks shall be purcha.sed by all freshmen
the day of registration.
They shall .be
worn at all times; on Campus and ih Edmborn, until Thanksgiving
vacation. Stu-

We want you to come here all set for the
happiest four years of your life. It's a new adventure, and you'll want to make the best of
every opportunity.
You'll want to make a good appearance from
the beginning. So brush up on your mJ1nners,
Know how to make conversation, how to conduct yourself at the table and practice it'
,.

dents entering second semester shall wear
dinks until Easter vacation.
Veterans are exempt from these regulations at their discretion.
All Freshmen shall extend a friendly
greeting,
and call upper classmen by
their last na~e (designating Mr. or Miss)
during the first two weeks of school.
thOf t;e ~a:d3. Freshmen Sh
l atl~ carryd a .cOPY

wo
weeks.
4. All Freshmen shall know college regulations, songs, and cheers found in the
handbook.
5. Freshmen shall observe the strictest etiquette at all times.
6. No High School awards shall be worn at
any time.

There are many activities
you can enter.
But it's up to you to get out for them, to work
and to let yourself be known. Ask someone how
to get into those things in which you are interested. But don't try to do too much. Keep a ~ll
rounded program and budget your time.
Because of the crowded living
conditions,
you may get your personal belongings mixed
with someone else's, so mark all of your property
and save a lot of confusion.

-30-

I

Social life is by no means all there is to
college. You'll want to start from the beginning
to do your best scholastically.
It may be difficult for you, but you can do it! Later you will
be wanting to join a sorority or fraternity,
and
the marks you get now will be a determining
factor as to whether you will get a bid.
