-LIFE

AT

EDINBORO

COLLEGE-

All students coming to Edinboro State Teachers College will find a new life here, not onl)
scholastically,
but socially as well.
New opportunities
and problems will present themselves, and since the student is liviRg away
from his home and fl\lnily,
he must learn to
make Intelligent
decisions
a:nd to take responsibllity
on his own shoulders.
This doe~
not mean that when a stud~nt comes to live
on campus he .Is left suddenly alone with all
the worries and complications
of a new life,
for the Dean of Women, the Dean of Men, and
friendly
faculty
members
and upperelassmen
are always ready to help; a new student can
always go to any of these people for advice.
Lasting friendships
will be built up here with
both students and faculty.
Though studIes
are of course the first con..realizing
sideration of College students there are many
parties and dances and gener~l good times as
well as a full athletic
program
to give' the
students
a well-rounded

HISTORY
Full eighty years have gone by since Edinboro was first chartered
as a State Normal
School. Eighty years of growth and service to
the communities
lying about her. The beginnings of the college were laid in 1857 when a
band of hardy Scotch-Irish
farmers
grouped
together and founded a private academy at EdInboro by popuiar subscription,
but it was not
until 1861 that It was chl\rtered by the State
as Pennslyvania's
second Normal School.
A great forward
stride was taken in 1914,
when the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania
purchased Edlnboro Normal
School and made it
the property of the State.
Twelve years later,
..ennsy the need' of th e schools of P
1vanIa for better educated teachers, the Commonwealt? .made Edinboro a Teachers College
by organIzIng
a four-year
curriculum
leading
to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Eduto

donors of the school.
Academy Hall, known
recently as Music Hall, is the oldest buil~ing
on the campus, being built about ~857. Normal
Hall was built in 1857 and In 1891 was con.,
siderablyenlarged.
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 Gymnasium,
with Its excellent athletic facilities,
now over.
shadows the old gymnasium,
which is outdated.
Loveland Hall 1& named for the late
Mr. Frank Loveland of CQrry, who for many
years was a trustee of the 'college; this building was built in 1930 and houses the Art
and Science departments.
We are rightly
proud of our campus because 'of its attractiveness,
its accomodatlon~.
and its traditions.
We hope this. pride will
ever continue to be shared by all Incoming
stu,dents.

nature.
,

work
of good
quality.

13

'

~

"X"-liot

The Dean'" List
Twice a year, there is published The Dean's
List, a list of students who have made a grade

the previous semester.
THE LIBRARY
The entering
student
at Edinboro
State
Teachers College soon discovers the educatlonal and recreational
facilities
available In our
College Library.
Some nineteen thousand volumes offer a wide range for reference and
study;
a generous fiction
section and 156
magazines and periodicals give the student an
opportunity
to fill leisure hours with enjoyable
reading.
Records show an average of 125
students registering
dally and between 1100
and 2000 books and periodicals
in circulation
monthly.
Our library
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
system must be carefully
supervised and consequently certain rules must be carefully
observed.
1. Students will
register
on entering
the
library
and again on leaving, at which time
they will show books charged for use outside
the library.
2. All books which have been definitely assigned to classes are placed on shelves directly behind the desk and are known as the
Reserve Books.
Such books may be withdrawn

at 5:00 P.'M. an:! returned at 7:30 P. M. or
taken at 9:00 P. M. and returned before 9:00
_0\..M. the following
morning.
Failure
to observe these rules results In a fine of ten cents
per day.
3. All books except those on reserve may
be withdrawn
for two weeks; a fine of two
cents a day will be charged for books kept
overtime.
4, Magazines may be withdrawn
from the
Library
subject to the same rules as Reserve
Books.
5. No st~dent will be issued grades or cI:ed.
It.. u~til all Library
obligations have been settied.
6. No books
may be removed
from the
Library
except by proper charging at the dei3lt
by the librar,ian
in charge.
Anyone taking
books from the Library
Improperly
charged
will be subject to a fine of $5.00 for each book
and suspension from all College activities until
such finei3 are paid.
Clipping
and marking
books is always prohibited.
Clipping may be
done from pamphlets and magazines only with
permlsslon
from the Librarian.
The library
is located on the second fioot""
of Normal Hall and throughout
the year will
observe the follOwing hours:
8: 00 A. M. to 5: 00 P. M.-Monday
to Frlday Inclusive.
7:30 P. M. to 9:QO P. M.-Monday
to Friday inclusive.
8:00 A. M. to 12:00 Noon-Saturday.
1: 00 P. M. to 4 :00 P.M.-Saturday
We urge you to use the Library In the fullest
possible way, and believe it to be an Important
part in your training.
You may never again
have the time and ~I!I!,?,:tunlty to enjoy suchI
a privilege as is yours at Edlnboro.

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 cases the
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
