STRESSED EDUCATION AS A CAREER The main goal of the Future Teachers of America Club was to learn about the teaching profession, its responsibilities, opportunities, and its role in our democracy. This year, the club began a program whereby each member worked with a teacher to become acquainted with their behind-the-scenes'' activities. Meetings were held on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month. The club visited Hamline University and the University of Minnesota.
