 Benjamin Roscoe Showalter, A.B., A.M., Ph.D. Director Extension Teaching Correspondence Courses Extension teaching has been entered into at Auburn for the past eight years, but not until three years ago was one member of the faculty placed in charge. There arc now nearly twelve hundred students taking advantage of this service throughout Alabama, over double the number enrolled last year. The outstanding characteristic of this service is that it is definitely planned to further the education of teachers who arc already in the field. Correspondence instruction is offered to all who arc unable to come to the campus or to enroll in the extension teaching centers. All courses arc conducted by regular members of the faculty, and arc accepted in lieu of campus comers for graduation.
