EDUCATION Students at B. S. T. C. .irc not trained solely in the fields they select. Through courses in orientation, guidance, psychology, philosophy, and teaching techniques, each curriculum is enriched to broaden the outlook and knowledge of the student. Such courses do not produce teachers by technical training, but rather by aiding in the formation of attitudes conducive to more enthusiastic instruction. Actual school situations are brought to the attention of the student who can then experience some of the problems of teachers. Student teaching affords opportunity for the learning of certain classroom tech- niques and procedures, and gives the student a better picture of the teaching profession. The Teacher Training Department also carries on a Placement Service in an effort to place graduates in desirable positions. .Seateil, I,eft to Ri -jit— Miss M.lv T. Ilavil. pi, .Mr. Earl X. Rlimles.
