This Work is typified by terms such as C13 seeking, Q21 self-direction, Q33 individ- ual pacing, C45 teaching in conferences and C55 individual record keeping. The individualized instruction so far has been carried out in the third grade room. Feasibility of moving into the grade tvvo room is being studied. Administration of achievement battery and the survey of reactions of the 92 pro- fessional educators vvho visited the pro- gram last year seem to indicate the plan has been highly successful. It is anticipated that as a result of ac- tion last October closing the Campus School that grades K-6 Will be double sectioned and grades 7-12 discontinued. However enrollment is expected to stay DR. JOSEPH WAX, Campus School Director the Same- FOCUS of the laboratory 5611001 EdD, University of North Dakota, Grand Forks Will be one of research and innovation. 20

C. R. SCHWIEGER, Chairman, MA, Colorado State College, Greeley Fine and Applied Arts ART Kappa Pi Colony of the interna- tional art fraternity was established with 15 charter members at Minot State College last fall. The group prepared a local consti- tution. Requirements for member- ship are a B average plus 18 quarter hours of art courses completed with a B grade. However, membership Will also depend upon creative work in art. The art major at MSC is geared primarily to the teaching degree rathter than to professional develop- men . HOME EC In the home economics unit, two new kitchens, including a new dish- washer, were added in July. The home furnishings class took as its project the remodeling of the living center on the second floor of Old Main. They made new curtains and wall hangings, and recovered chairs as part of the improvement project. In order to get ideas for fur- ther home furnishing, the class took various trips to furniture and dra- pery stores and to private homes in Minot. Also in the home economics divi- sion, a child care nursery was oper- ated during winter quarter as part of a class activity. DALE D. ATWOOD, Chairman EdD, University of North Dakota Business Education The Division of Business con- stantly strives to keep abreast with technological advancements in the field of business. This year a new program in vocational edu- cation is being offered to qualify business education majors to serve as office education coordi- nators. Courses in data process- ing have also been added which will supplement all existing pro- grams offered. Former classrooms used by the Manpower Program on the fourth floor of Old Main have this year been utilized by the business divi- sion for office machine classes and thereby available facilitiesin their regular department have in- creased. WARREN G. ALLEN, Chairman PhD, University of North Dakota Education and Psychology A psychology major was added to the offerings of the Division of Edu- cation and Psychology. Student in- terest in the new major was evident in the increase in course enrollment. This is a single division but both elementary and secondary candidates take their work here. Approximately 80 to 85 per cent of MSC students take classes in this division. Admission to teacher education is now a formal process for each stu- dent. Cnce in teacher education each person is continually screened for retention. Criteria on which the potential teacher is screened are health, per- sonality, scholarship and professional aptitudes. Part of the job of teachers here is the observing of the student teach- ers in the various schools to which they have been assigned. At present there are over 200 ele- mentary education majors.
