C. serve to illustrate the classical emphasis of the institution. The courses out- lined for the Freshman Class call for the suc- cessful completion of four years of Latin in a High School or similar institution. Students who fail to enter with such preparation may be accepted on condition, but cannot grad- uate without successfully completing the four years of College Latin which are required for the Arts degree. The aim of the courses is to develop facility in the reading of the classical authors, as well as to present a wide variety of the style and thought in the field of Latin Literature. For this reason the works read include not only classical selections, but pre-classical, as well as post-classical writings. Selections from lyric, epic, and dramatic poetryg phi- losophy, history, satire, oratory, and letters are to be found in the courses. The human- istic interest is always emphasized, but never at the expense of a study of the tech- nique of Latin style and thought, in which study there is to be found so much of dis- ciplinary value. Education Education Courses have, in recent years, been considerably developed, as the teaching profession has become increasingly attractive to college men. The great fundamental principles of educational methods are studied, in the subjects offered, successively from the psycological, the philosophical, the practical viewpoints as well as examined by the his- torical approach. Observation of teaching and practice teaching in the schools of Bethlehem and adjacent communities supply additional material for classroom presenta- tion and discussion. Complementing the various content courses of literature, lan- guage, history, mathematics, and science, the studies in educational method prepare the students for executive or instructural positions of different types in the field of education. Successive graduating classes are yielding each its quota of men to the teaching profession. In consequence, a creditable and thoroughly representative number of loyal sons of Moravian College are serving their day and generation as teachers.
