The summer term opens Monday, June 2, and closes Friday, August 8. The term is ten weeks in length. Function of the Teachers College. The State Teachers College at Kirksville is a fully accredited four year college. Its function is to prepare both elementary and high school teachers for the public schools of the state of Missouri. This institution believes in high educational standards. It believes that the state and nation should require equivalent preparation, along with other qualifications, for like positions in both elementary schools and high schools, and at the same time grant equal compensation for such positions. Reasons for Attending Summer Term. It enables the student of the regular school year to economize time and avoid loss which enforced vacation entails. The summer term is an exact equivalent of any other term's work. It enables the typical student to earn 40 semester hours of credit in a calendar year instead of 30 hours. It also affords similar opportunities to those who, after teaching nine months, must plan for the best use of their vacation. The summer term also enables students to secure from one to four grades for credit on state or county certificates. Holders of teacher training certificates, who have had a year's successful experience in teaching, may earn sufficient credits in one term at Teachers College to change their teacher training certificates into first grade county certificates. If properly chosen, these credits will also count towards a certificate or diploma in this institution. The state department's requirements for approved grades on state and county certificates are given on page 29 of this bulletin. WORKING SPACE FOR SUMMER TERM ON THE CAMPUS The Teachers College was extremely fortunate that the destruction of Baldwin Hall and Library Hall did not occur until (Page 5) the new fire proof buildings were ready for use. As it has come about there will be ample class rooms for the summer term. Many of the class rooms were not built for the purposes that we shall put them to. But they are comfortable rooms in three different buildings, the Science Hall, the Kirk Auditorium, and the Demonstration School. The Manual Arts Hall and the Little Theater also provide comfortable rooms. There will be grave congestion in the Administration Offices and in the matter of accommodations for faculty committees. But the faculty can adjust matters and get along very well for a few months. The fire proof cafeteria dining room and a special enclosure in a comer of the Hall of Sociabilities give ample stack room for the new library and nearly as much reading room as was afforded in the former Library Hall. Of course the reading room as such will be closed at meal times. Twenty excellent class rooms in the Demonstration School will be at command of college classes for most of each day during the summer term. In the past two decades Kirksville had reason to sympathize deeply with other state educational institutions whose buildings had been burned. Some of those institutions had to have classes for a period of two to five years in churches, court house rooms and unused store rooms. The Teachers College at Kirksville is accommodating all of its classes on its own campus and even with the immense crowds of the summer term will have relatively better facilities for class rooms in the summer term than in the period from June to May inclusive. If, for any reason, accommodations on the campus should prove inadequate during the summer, the school board of Kirksville has tendered the use of the Greenwood Building which is only two blocks from the college campus, and also the new High School Building, which is five blocks from the college campus. It should be mentioned that adjustments were promptly made in a meeting of the faculty held on the night after the fire such that by a slightly modified schedule all the classes met the next day or had such conferences that announcements of lessons and plans of procedure were made for all classes. Thus the school has been able to proceed with its program scarcely at all -5- (Page 6) interrupted. It should be borne in mind: (1) That Science Hall with all its valuable equipment for teaching Physics, Chemistry, Domestic Science, Household Arts, Fine and Applied Arts, and Physical Education for Women, was saved; (2) the John R. Kirk Auditorium, which houses all the splendid equipment for Public Health and for Physical Education for Men, and all the valuable cafeteria equipment, stands uninjured, for it is a fire proof building; (3) the Ophelia Parrish Building and Manual Arts Hall are both fire proof buildings and they can accommodate many classes; (4) approximately $25,000 is being used to supplement the library books that were saved, and reading rooms are being provided for students. Therefore, the Teachers College has been able to accommodate winter term and spring term students. It will be easier still to accommodate the summer term students. All students who have been coming to Kirksville should return and bring new students with them; those who have planned to come should come right on; and those in doubt, because of the fire, should doubt no longer but come to the old school which will have a bigger and brighter future dating from the great fire of January 28, 1924. 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. Students coming after the opening date will be charged an extra fee of $1.00 for late entrance unless the late entrance is due to teaching or illness. A doctor's certificate must verify illness. For release from extra fee, see the Dean or Registrar. 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 -6- (Page 7) 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. 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, normal schools 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 conformity 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. -7- (Page 8) 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. Examinations for Advanced Standing. Students desiring credit through examinations see Conference Agreement under heading V., Advance Standing, annual bulletin. 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 credentials, 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 Room 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 in charge of fees. Fees will be received 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 Auditor- -8- (Page 9) ium. 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 CARDS. 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. These cards must be filed as soon as possible. If kept out 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 go back to the Credentials Committee and purchase for 25 cents a duplicate of his classification card. College Organization. 1. 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. -9- (Page 10) Manual Arts, Freehand Drawing, Sight Reading, Gymnasium work are half studies. (3) About 5 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 a good working program. 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 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 student booklet. One official transcript of record for transferring credits to other institutions is furnished each student without charge when needed. But no official transcript is placed in the hands of the student. Extra copies of the official transcript cost the student $1.00 each. On requesting an official transcript the name of the institution or party to whom it is to be sent must be given. -10- (Page 11) 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 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. -11- (Page 12) SUMMER ENTERTAINMENT Plays and Players. The practice pursued for the past fifteen years of inviting to the campus talented professional companies for the presentation of great classic and modem dramas will be followed in the summer of 1924. At the time of sending this bulletin to press, no contracts have been let; but with the Shakespeare Playhouse, the Coffer-Miller Players and other high class companies available, it is possible to promise the summer school professional dramatic offerings of superior quality. Fifth Annual Festival of Music and Drama. The Department of Music and of Dramatics will continue this year their series of joint programs known as the Festivals of Music and Drama. The contribution of the music department this summer will probably be an oratorio or cantata. The past has witnessed successful performances of "The Messiah," Handel; "The Creation," Haydn; "Redemption;" Gounod; "Stabat Mater;" Rossini; "Elijah;" Mendelssohn; and other oratorios during the regular school year. Prior to this year only opera was used in the summer term, but by alternation the department believes it can better meet the educational needs of students. The contribution of the Department of Dramatics will be one of Shakespeare's major dramas, a classic Greek play, or a standard modern play. These programs will be presented in Kirk Auditorium. The Dramatic Club. The Dramatic Club furnishes, in addition to dramatic productions already named, weekly programs in the Little Theater, and occasional public performances. With the excellent new small theater in the Ophelia Parrish School, and the great stage in John R. Kirk Auditorium, the Club has added facilities which will stimulate it to greater activity. Through the joint efforts of the Dramatic Club and the Department of Music, the stage in Kirk Auditorium has been equipped with a handsome velour front curtain and three cycloramas of blue charmeuse, forest green bunting and gold bunting respectively, valued at more than one thousand dollars; while through the cooperation of the College Dramatic Club with that of the Junior High School, the stage in the Ophelia Parrish School has been correspondingly equipped, with furnishings valued at over five hundred dollars. The Club has for over a year found it necessary to -12- (Page 13) organize in two divisions in order to take care of the increased demands upon it. Lectures. During the summer quarter the college will have well known educators to speak on topics that will be of interest to students of the college. There will be lectures on such subjects as School Administration, the Teaching Process, Public Health, and School Architecture. DEPARTMENTS OF INSTRUCTION The Teachers College has eighteen departments of instruction. They are as follows: Agriculture, Chemistry, Child Hygiene and Public Health, Commerce, Education, English, Fine Arts and Applied Arts, Geography, History, Home Economics, Industrial Arts, Latin, Mathematics, Modem Languages, Music, Physical Education, Physics and Physiography, and Political and Social Science. The work of these departments is of a standard equal to that of the best colleges of our country. The Teachers College at Kirksville is fully accredited as a senior college of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. Public Health and Physical Education. It is proposed to anticipate all that may be done in public school education under the new physical education statutes of Missouri. This may involve some transfer of the energy of specialized instructors. It seems not to be doubted that the major energies of the physical education instructors have been exerted in behalf of teams for competitive college and high school games. Now it is proposed to bring about co-operation between the Department of Child Hygiene and Public Health on the one hand and those who direct the gymnasium exercises on the other. lf this brings about a necessary curtailment in the coaching of the few strong bodied students for the sake of winning games, there still seems to be no reason why it should not be done. Therefore, it is the purpose to discover to a considerable extent through the Department of Child Hygiene and Public Health what is the definite physical condition of those students who need physical education most and introduce as fast as possible such corrective gymnastics as may be feasible and then such developmental gym- -13- (Page 14) nastics and plays and games as will bring into reality the old Greek idea of sound minds in sound bodies. Already the Department of Child Hygiene and Public Health has proved itself highly valuable to students from a good many view points. The physician's office is well equipped for diagnosis and for treatment of many ordinary conditions. Dressings, antiseptics and other supplies are provided free of charge to students. Serum and vaccine prophylaxis are administered when necessary. Students having ailments are visited in their rooms by the nurse. Analyses of many types are made in the well equipped laboratory. More and more students are availing themselves of the services of the Department of Public Health and are keeping well and physically fit. In view of the fact that this is a teacher producing institution our movement in the direction of corrective gymnastics and the ways of securing and maintaining health among the students at large is seen to have value reaching far into the future. At Kirksville it is found that as health increases students complete more studies in school and make higher grades. Moreover the Department of Child Hygiene and Public Health in cooperation with the State and Federal Departments of Health will give instructive lectures on various phases of public health and social hygiene. These programs are given of afternoons during the summer quarters and are free to all. The Library. The college library, which was destroyed by fire January 28, is being replaced rapidly. By the opening of the summer quarter from $20,000 to $25,000 will be spent for new books. The new books together with those saved from the old library will constitute a splendid up-to-date working library. Temporarily these books are housed in a fire proof reading room which has 80 per cent of the seating space of the old college library. While books are being assembled for the new library a new fire proof library building will be in the process of construction. This new building will meet a long felt need at the teachers college and will be a valuable addition to the other fire proof buildings on the college campus. The Demonstration Schools. The Demonstration Schools for the summer term will comprise the kindergarten, and elementary school of eight grades, and a standard four-year high school. -14- (Page 15) The regular staff of teachers and supervisors will conduct the school and opportunities for college students to pursue studies of observation and teaching will be the same as in any other term of the school year. The courses offered in the high school department are so organized that pupils may complete whole or half units of credit during the term of ten weeks. Pupils may complete a maximum of one unit of credit by attending the full term. High School pupils will pay a tuition fee of $12.50 for the term. Pupils desiring to enroll for high school courses should send application to the Director of the School, Mr. Felix Rothschild, by May 1st, as classes will not be held for less than eight members. Each application should indicate clearly the studies the pupil wishes to take during the term. The Demonstration School will occupy the handsome new Ophelia Parrish School building on the college campus. All classes will be in session five days each week between the hours of eight in the morning and twelve o'clock noon. HIGH SCHOOL COURSES OF THE DEMONSTRATION SCHOOLS ENGLISH First Year 1 Unit Second Year 1 Unit Third Year 1/2 Unit Fourth Year 1/2 Unit HISTORY AND SOCIAL SCIENCE European History 2 Units American History 1 Unit Social Science 1/2 Unit MATHEMATICS Beginning Algebra 1 Unit Advanced Algebra 1/2 Unit Plane Geometry 1 Unit SCIENCE General Science 1 Unit LATIN Beginning Latin l Unit Each unit of work will be given in four class periods. Each half unit will be given in two class periods. Each pupil will be required to take at least two classes in each subject so that one-half unit credit will be the minimum of credit granted. No class will be organized for less than ten pupils. -15- (Page 16) SERVICE TO TEACHERS Teachers' Salaries In Relation to College Preparation. This school 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 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. On page 22 of the June bulletin is the plan of procedure. Application for a certificate or diploma will be received any time within the first four weeks of a quarter.
