THE MISSION As has been true for almost one hundred years, the principal function of the Teachers College is the providing of pre-service and in- service education for teachers to serve in the public schoolsiof Kansas. This emphasis on teacher education will be continued in the fore- seeable future, subject to change only when and if the Board of Regents determines that a change in function would be in the best inter- ests of the people of Kansas. The Functions of the Teachers College are: To provide pre-service and in-service programs of study for teachers and other workers in the elementary and secondary public schools of Kansas. To provide certain pre-professional course se- quences and liberal arts degree programs which are closely related to the higher education needs of pre-service and in-service teachers and li- brarians of Kansas. To provide special educational functions which have emerged from l and 2 above to the extent of having a distinctive status: a. Pre-service and in-service education for pub- lic school and public librarians. The oldest library school west of the Mississippi. b. Education of physically handicapped stu- dents. c. The Bureau of Educational Measurements. d. Adult education programs. e. Rural education programs, services and re- search. f. Programs in music, art and business. g. National Science Foundation and other fed- eral and privately supported programs. h. Special programs for deviate children. i. Research related to public education in Kansas.
