Ex-Officio Member of All Committees: The President of the College -9- (Page 10) A FOREWORD THE GREAT FIRE The Teachers College at Kirksville had a fire. The day was January 28, 1924. Two highly serviceable old buildings with nearly all their contents were destroyed. Their estimated value was $300,000.00. Their high combustibility made insurance rates almost prohibitive. The insurance companies paid in full the losses as adjusted by fair minded men, in all about $117,000.00. The Baldwin Hall sacred in the memory of thousands had stood more than half a century; the Library Hall, almost a quarter of a century. Many people of the earlier generation who saw the destruction were heartsick. Many of the younger set are for the time being discommoded. The holocaust was from three to six o’clock in the afternoon. At seven o’clock the faculty met. At eight o’clock next morning classes were in session on the campus according to schedule. The winter term ended. There was vacation for one week. Many were alarmed lest numbers be reduced. But the spring term opened with eight per cent more college students than at the opening of any earlier spring term. Now about the end of April, the attendance of college students is running fifteen per cent above the attendance at corresponding dates in former years. A large summer attendance is assured. Northeast Missouri stands true to higher education. The crowds are coming. Ten thousand new books already occupy shelves in the new metal stacks on the ground floor of the Auditorium Building. Ten thousand more will soon be catalogued and on the shelves. Nearly 30,000 volumes will be available by midsummer. The greater part of one laboratory, the agricultural labora-tory was destroyed by the fire. It will be restored and located in the science Hall, partly in the restored corridor which formerly led from Science Hall to Baldwin Hall. Properties in the new fire proof Auditorium and Demonstration School Buildings were not materially injured. There is increase of walking from building to building. This may contribute to health. The institution has a few hundred feet more of floor space than it had exactly one year ago. —10— (Page 11) Young life is coming on. Good colleges are crowded. Next September they will be more crowded. Our condition challenges our skill and our ingenuity in making adjustments. Faculty members are suffering more of inconvenience than the students are. The latter, more nearly care free and being sprightly, strong and quick of step, make ready transitions from class room to class room and laboratory to laboratory. Faculty members are not all of them in class rooms quite so near their offices as they once were and in the not distant future will be again. It might have been worse. Had the fire occurred one year earlier, we would have been obliged to accept proffered quarters outside the campus. We learn to use rooms economically and for more varied purposes. Morning, noon and evening the cafeteria dining rooms are used for meals. All the other hours of the day those dining rooms with mechanical ventilation giving the fresh breezes, become the library reading rooms. The adjoining Hall of Sociabilities, 22 x 174 feet, becomes an extension of the reading rooms and still retains much of the quiet social contact for which it was designed. Already plans are well matured for the new fire proof Library Hall to be located a little to the northwest of the Science Hall, and balance the Auditorium on the east side of the campus. Its principal features will be: height, three stories; horizontal dimensions, 85 x 98 feet; main reading room, 35 x 82 feet, with abundant mild, north light and ample space for mural decorations; adjacent smaller reading rooms and work rooms; nine large rooms for special libraries, and small study rooms for special student groups. The building will accommodate many classes and many conventions and programs while the great new Administration building is being restored on the site of Baldwin Hall. All education is adjustment. It therefore increases versatility, adaptability, congeniality, neighborliness, diplomacy, cooperation. Faculty members willingly sacrifice comfort. Students show the rarest good humor and loyalty and willingness to fit themselves into new situations. The churches, the public schools, the neighboring colleges and citizens at large have offered to place properties and conveniences at command of the Teachers College. Everyone must have known they would do this. They are Missourians. —11— (Page 12) Fortunately some dozen large rooms in the Demonstration School Building will be at the command of the summer term classes. Then for the seven hundred to eight hundred college students of the fall term, there will be many adjustments and agreeable modifications of programs. Following the fall term, as the architect thinks, the new library will be at our command. He says we can have it by Thanksgiving time. On the whole it is now evident that in spite of disasters the Northeast Missouri State Teachers College can soon have a beautiful, symmetrical and convenient adjustment of its quadrangle for the uses of the near future and for the generations to come. —12— (Page 13) REGISTRATION AND CREDITS Registration. Programs will be made the first day of each term. Registration is not merely the payment of the incidental fee but it covers the six steps under the Order of Procedure for Registration. A cumulative fee of one dollar per week until it reaches a maximum of three dollars, shall be charged for late entrance; however, in case of illness or teaching, the additional fee for late entrance will not be charged. A doctor’s certificate must verify illness. For release from extra fee, see Dean or Registrar. No person shall receive credit for less than three week’s attendance. The Incidental Fee. The incidental fee is $12.50 per term, payable in advance. No departmental fees are allowed; but students are charged for breakages in laboratories and they are fined for misuse of library books. No Return of Fees. Incidental fees are not refunded for any cause whatsoever. They are not allowed to apply on any period excepting that for which they are paid in advance. Prepare Credentials In Advance. Students desiring credit for studies taken in other schools and colleges should file with the credentials committee on or before the date of entrance a complete statement of such credit. Students who fail to comply with the foregoing provision will be required to telegraph for a statement of their credits. Such students will be provisionally entered for two weeks, but failure to file credits within the two weeks will result in the deduction of one hour of credit. On application the Registrar will furnish blanks in proper form for making definite statements of credits earned in other schools. What the Credentials Should Show. High School Credentials should show: 1. Name or names of high schools in Which all work is done. 2. Names of studies pursued. 3. Number of weeks each is pursued. 4. Number of periods per week. 5. Grades in each study. 6. Year work was done. 7. Year of course when taken, (I, II, III, or IV.) 8. Value in units. —13— (Page 14) College credits should be sent in on blank furnished by the institution sending in the credits. Advanced Standing. Those bringing credentials from accredited high schools, academies, colleges, teachers colleges, and universities receive advanced standing unit for unit and semester hour for semester hour, provided the secondary credits conform to the units acceptable to the State Department and provided the college credit is acceptable on curricula of the Teachers College. Students who claim more credit for work done in either classified or unclassified secondary schools than is recommended by the state superintendent’s rating shall be given the credit by examinations only. These examinations will be held in con-formity with the conference agreement of state institutions. Approval of Subjects Taught. Students who have taught subjects in high schools approved by state inspectors or by similar accrediting agencies in other states will be given high school credit for those subjects, provided that they have not previously received high school credit or college credit in the same, and provided further that application is made for such credit before the completion of thirty semester hours. Credit for Military Service. A maximum of 12 hours credit is granted for service in the military forces of the United States during the Great War. The credit is apportioned approximately as follows. 12 hours for 12 months’ service, 9 hours for 6 months’ service, 6 hours for 3 months’ service. Also, ex-service men, upon the presentation of proper credentials, may receive credit for courses completed in reputable educational institutions including specialized military schools. Examination for Advanced Standing. Students desiring credit through examinations see Conference Agreement under heading V., Advance Standing. Order of Procedure for Registration. There is an established order of procedure for registration which applies both to students who have never been enrolled here and to students who have not been enrolled since September, 1917. 1. Classification. On reaching the Teachers College, the student goes first to the Committee on Credentials which is in session throughout enrollment day in Room 2B in Science Hall. With this Committee he deposits his high school creden- —14— (Page 15) tials, also his college credentials, if such credentials have not been previously filed at the office. The Committee on Credentials then gives him a classification card in duplicate which shows that he is eligible to college classes. If the student has not completed 15 high school units, but is 21 years of age and can show ability to pursue college courses, he is given a Special classification which admits him to college classes. 2. Matriculation. The student next goes to the Committee in charge of matriculation. This is in Hoorn 4B in Science Hall. Here he presents his two classification cards, fills out a matriculation card, and has his matriculation number entered on both of his classification cards. He deposits one classification card with the Committee in charge of the matriculation. 3. Payment of Incidental Fee. His classification card is now presented to the one collecting fees, in the Sewing Room, 4C, in Science Hall. 4. Consultation With Faculty Members. The student now consults faculty members with whom he wishes to take work and fills in his receipt with studies he desires to pursue. This work will be done in the Men’s Gymnasium in the Kirk Auditorum. The receipt is now signed by the faculty member whom the student chooses as faculty adviser. 5: Filling in of Permanent Program Card. The student is now ready to fill in the permanent program card for the office files. This work will be done in a section of the Men’s Gymnasium in the Kirk Auditorium. At the same time he fills in one of the blue class cards for each study he pursues. 6. Filing of Permanent Program Card and Class Card. The student himself now files his permanent program card and all his class cards with some member of the Committee in charge of these cards. This must be done as soon as possible. If the cards are kept over 24 hours the student is subjected to a $1.00 fine. On the day that the classes assemble the class cards are in the hands of the instructors and no student should be permitted to remain in any class unless the instructor has a class card for him bearing the Registrar’s stamp. A student who has been enrolled since September, 1917, may start at point 3, but at the time he pays his fee he must present his classification card showing his matriculation number or else —15— (Page 16) go back to the Credentials Committee and purchase for 25 cents a duplicate of his classification card. College Organization. X. In the college organization of this institution students are differentiated into (1) those of the junior college and (2) those of the senior college. 2. Students having less than 60 semester hours of credit constitute the junior college; those having 60 or more semester hours of credit constitute the senior college. 3. Students in the junior college are to select their studies mainly from junior college subjects; those in the senior college are to select their studies mainly from senior college subjects. 4. A candidate for the Bachelor’s Degree should have a minimum of 50 hours of senior college credit. 5. All college courses are designated by Arabic numerals: junior college courses, by numbers 1 to 99 inclusive; those of the senior college by numbers 100 to 199 inclusive. How Many Studies. (1) Typical students may have four studies without consulting the Committee on Excess Credit. (2) From 20 to 30 per cent of the students by consent of the Committee on Excess Credit may have four and one-half studies. Freehand Drawing, Sight Reading, Gymnasium work are half studies. (3) Five per cent of all students by permission of Committee on Excess Credit may have five studies each. Faculty Members Make Programs. On the first day of the term members of the faculty will be distributed by departments in the Men’s Gymnasium of the Kirk Auditorium. Each department will be ready to advise students with reference to its particular courses. No subject should be entered in the program without the consent of some member of the department in which the subject is taught. Faculty members, President, Dean, and Registrar are accommodating and anxious to help new students to select good working programs. Change of Program. A program should be chosen with extreme care. After choice has been made the student should exert the greatest possible effort to carry the program selected and complete its several courses. No student can change classes or drop a subject without the written consent of the teacher of the subject and official approval at President’s office, and then -16 (Page 17) only during the first seven weeks of the term. Programs are changed on afternoons between 3 and 5 o’clock. Transcript of Credits. At the close of the first term in residence each student is given a student booklet containing a statement of his credits. This is to keep him informed at all times as to his exact standing in his college courses and to aid him in planning his quarterly programs. To get each quarter’s grades recorded, a student must deposit this booklet with the Registrar one week before the end of each term in attendance. A charge of $1.00 is made for each additional booklet. One official transcript of record for transferring credits to other institutions is furnished each student without charge when needed, but it is not placed in the hands of the student. Extra copies of the transcript cost the student $1.00 each. On requesting a transcript the name of the institution or individual to whom it is to be sent must be given. GENERAL INFORMATION Rooms and Meals. A majority of our students have their rooms with private families. They are welcomed into the homes of the best people in Kirksville. The rates for rooms vary from small amounts up to about $2.50 per week per student. The average per student including heat and light is nearly $2.00 per week, two in a room with modern conveniences. Meals for typical students cost from $4.00 to $7.00 per week, with an average approximating $5.00 per week per student. Rooms for light housekeeping may be had at reasonable rates. Rooming houses are approved or rejected at the discretion of the administration of the school. Rooming houses must be exclusively for men or exclusively for women. A parlor must be provided for the use of young women when they have guests. Treatments for women students in rooming houses are to be chaperoned when given by men. All inquiries for rooms and board, whether for men or women, should be addressed to Mrs. Jo Walker Humphrey, Adviser of Women. Total Cost Per Term. The maximum cost per term for a typical student should not exceed: incidental fee, $12.50; books —17— (Page 18) and supplies, $10.00; laundry, $10.00; room rent, $18.00; meals, $55.00. Total $105.50. The Cafeteria. The new College Cafeteria furnishes meals at minimum cost, with ample variety from which each student may select. It assures wholesome food and well-balanced rations, changing from day to day. Student Employment. Women students desiring to reduce expenses by work in private families or elsewhere should address Mrs. Jo Walker Humphrey, Adviser of Women. Men students desiring employment should address Fred R. Russell, Professor of Agriculture, or John Jack, Chief Caretaker. Letters addressed to the President, Dean or Registrar will receive prompt attention. Many students earn their expenses throughout long periods of time. Honorary Fraternity. Tau Chapter of the National Educational Fraternity Kappa Delta Pi, was installed in this college February 24, 1923. Kappa Delta Pi itself was founded at the University of Illinois in 1911, and now has twenty chapters. Its object is to promote scholarship, to encourage research in the field of education, and to foster cooperation among the men and women engaged in the teaching profession. The membership of Tau Chapter is chosen each quarter from the senior college. High scholarship and professional promise, together with a willingness to cooperate with other students in worthy student activities, is the criterion for election to membership. This chapter offers an annual scholarship of twenty-five dollars to the member of the Freshman class or Sophomore class who has the highest scholastic record for a school year and at the same time shows unusual professional promise. THE DEMONSTRATION SCHOOL The organized teachers college has its basic idea in sound scholarship as the foundation for the functioning of studies in education. It is therefore a combination of college of liberal arts and college of education closely interrelated. There is a third integral factor in the teachers college. It is the demonstration school in form of the kindergarten, elementary school, junior high school and senior high school, whereby —18— (Page 19) the best procedures in public school education may be discovered and put into operation by college bred class room teachers on duty in each room all the hours of every day—the purpose being to furnish the best possible laboratory of observation and study for all intending teachers. College students as intending teachers sit in with the children, make observations, report findings, and receive instructions for further studies, with opportunity for project teaching when qualified. College students become partners with class room teachers. They help through their own initiative to direct children into the comprehension of studies. In the State Teachers College the dream of the demonstration school has long been approaching usable form. It is now a reality. There are daily exemplifications: One rugged, red faced college of liberal arts professor with Ph. D. degree teaches a ninth grade Social Science class in the demonstration school. He is followed by some senior college student observers who watch and study him and the children daily and try to catch the step. He has pride in what he does. Several colleagues of equal capabilities, both men and women, from liberal arts departments, have delight in paralleling what this man does. It is now discovered that the Teachers college with its demonstration school develops college professors of a new type—scholarly men and women from liberal arts college delight to cross over into the Demonstration School and teach an hour a day in the ninth grade, the fifth grade, or any other grade. We hope to be able in the near future to publish a concrete description of the Demonstration School. It may be called the curriculum. SERVICE TO TEACHERS Teachers’ Salaries In Relation to College Preparation. This schools assists qualified teachers in securing positions. For the year beginning September, 1923, the Committee on Recommendations placed 201 teachers at an average salary of $1,205. The average salary of those holding the 30-hour..........certificate is $1,020.00 —19— (Page 20) The average salary of those holding the 60-hour diploma is.....$1,126.00 The average salary of those holding the 90-hour diploma is.....$1,324.00 The average salary of those holding the 120-hour diploma with bachelor’s degree is.....$1,749.00 Meeting the Needs of Teachers. The Teachers College at Kirksville offers increased advantages for professional preparation and advancement. It grants elementary certificates and life certificates which entitle the holders to teach in the elementary schools and high schools of Missouri. It confers the bachelor’s degree on completion of four years of college studies. It also enables teacher training graduates to change their certificates to first grade county certificates. During the summer term it enables teachers to make certified grades on state and county certificates. CERTIFICATES, DIPLOMAS, DEGREES How to Apply for a Certificate or Diploma. A student who wishes to obtain a certificate or diploma at the end of any quarter must fill out an application card and file it with the Registrar. Application for a certificate or diploma will be received any time within the first four weeks of a quarter.

Adopted by the Conference, January 10,1924. (i) Students shall not be admitted to examination for advanced secondary standing unless they produce evidence showing that they have made systematic preparation m the work for which this advanced standing is claimed. “Systematic Preparation”: Systematic preparation consists (a) of the study and completion of a course or courses in an unaccredited high school, or (b) an equivalent amount of study under a private teacher who meets the requirements of the State Department of Education for teachers of the subject taught or (c) of teaching a subject in an unaccredited high school. Adopted by the Conference, January 10,1924. (j) Where college credit is substituted to make up a deficiency in secondary credits, five hours of college credit shall be counted the equivalent of one unit of secondary credit. (k) No secondary credit shall be given for grades on state or county certificates. Adopted by the Conference, January 10, 1924. 2. College Credit. Credit from institutions other than those mentioned in V. A. shall be given only on the basis of examinations. The methods of giving the examinations shall be that designated in V. B. C. No advanced standing of college rank shall be given for post graduate work in a high school unless such high school is properly equipped and definitely organized to do work of college rank, and restricted entirely to students who have completed a four year secondary course under teachers having the qualifications set forth for teachers of college subjects. D. No credits shall be given for teaching experience gamed as a teacher receiving a salary. If it seems probable that an experienced teacher cannot take with profit any required courses in observation or practice teaching, he should be excused from such courses and required to elect an equal amount of academic or professional work. E. No advanced standing for college credit shall be given for grades on state or county certificates when such grades have been secured by examination. F. In the 1920 Conference of Presidents of State Educational Institutions it was further agreed that, if college credit is desired students must be able to show that they made systematic preparation under qualified teachers. VI. A. A committee of three shall be selected to visit each of the state educational institutions, and report to the conference at such times as the conference may designate, the workings of each of such institutions with reference to each of the foregoing propositions. 1. Composition. The committee shall be composed of one representative from the University, one from the teachers colleges and one from the State Department of Education. 2. Selection. The representative from the State Department of Education shall be appointed by the State Superintendent of Schools and shall be chairman of the committee. The representative from the University shall be chosen by the faculty and president of the University. The representative from the teachers colleges shall be chosen by the presidents and faculties of the teachers colleges in rotation, beginning with the Northeast Missouri State Teachers College. —70— (Page 71) 3. Tenure. The members of this committee shall serve for a period of one year, beginning July 1, 1916. B. The work of unclassified colleges and schools shall be accepted as determined by the University of Missouri or the State Superintendent of Schools. VII. The professional degree for the completion of the 120 semester hour course given in the teachers colleges and the School of Education of the University of Missouri should be the degree of Bachelor of Science in Education. VIII. No elementary certificate shall be granted by any of the institutions represented in this conference, with less than two terms in residence and no diploma shall be granted on less than three terms in residence. IX. It is the sense of this Conference that at the time the law goes into effect requiring graduation from a four year high school course preliminary to a first grade county certificate, the elementary certificate of the teachers colleges should be based upon 60 semester hours of credit, and that the life diploma should be based upon 120 semester hours of credit. X. When this conference finds that the conditions named in this report have been fully met, college work done in any of the institutions shall be accepted hour for hour in the other institutions, and graduates of the 120 hour course shall be admitted to the graduate school of the University of Missouri. XI. Present conditions for accepting college work from other institutions. (A) College work done in any of the institutions of the Conference agreement by students who have regularly enrolled for the first time since Sept. 1, 1916, shall be accepted by the other institutions hour for hour and such students finishing the 120 hour course shall be admitted to the graduate school of the University of Missouri. (B) College work done by students regularly enrolled before Sept. 1, 1916, and in attendance not less than one term, since Sept. 1, 1916, shall be accepted on the same basis as the above, provided satisfactory evidence is produced showing that the entrance requirements have been met, and provided further the college credit granted in any year does not exceed the maximum amount provided for in the conference agreement. (C) College work done by students enrolled before Sept. 1, 1916, and not in attendance one term since Sept. 1, 1916 shall be accepted in accordance with the provisions under (B), with the understanding that each case will be dealt with according to its particular merit and that each school accepting such credit, shall be the judge of the amount of credit granted. XII. The Articles of Agreement should be published m the catalogs of all institutions that are parties to the agreement. —71— (Page 72) STATISTICS STATISTICS OF ATTENDANCE June, 1923, to May, 1924, inclusive.
