The College of Education The College of Education is completing the thirtieth year of its existence, having been established by legislative action in 1902 Although more than one hundred years younger than other parts of Ohio Uni- versity, its vigorous growth has enabled it to take its place as one of the substantial parts of the institution. This rela- tively new activity of the Uni- versity has developed rapidly in a field where definite prep- aration for one of the great professions was recognized as a distinct need The establishment of higher standards in the profession of teaching, society ' s recognition of the necessity for larger edu- C3tion3l facilities for youth, the growing demand for pro- fessionally prepared teachers, and other factors gave a strong impetus to the rapid develop- ment of the new college with- in the University The steady growth in standards, the in- crease in the number of stu- dents, the careful selection of a superior faculty, and recognition by state and national accrediting agencies have allowed the College of Education to take its place as a strong factor in the work of the University The College of Education expects its graduates to become familiar with various fields of basic academic knowledge as well as to make thorough preparation in professional studies Accurate and careful mastery is stressed by all departments of the College. Without this accuracy in knowledge, thoroughness in teaching cannot be secured The College of Education of Ohio University exists primarily for the purpose of preparing young men and women to become teachers. Its grad- uates with their backgrounds of preparation and student-teaching experience leave the University ready to enter the profession under very favorable cir- cumstances.
