ll THE SUMMER SCHOOL l I I. S. N. U. 1903 OR A NUMBER of years the Illinois State Normal University has had a six Weeks' summer school. Last summer an attempt was made to maintain a second six weeks' term and the effort was en-- tirely successful. The summer school is now, therefore, a part of the regular schedule ot the school year. The institution has four quarters of twelve Weeks each and the summer quarter is divided into two terms of six weeks each. No teacher is expected to teach more than one of the summer terms. The students of the summer quarter are quite mature and represent a high standard in scholarship. Fully 90 per cent of them are teachers of ex- perience. In point of numbers and interest the suinmer school of 19012 was the most successful in the history of the institution. In character it was a rcinarkahly fine body of students.
