Professor of Secondary Education Ol)£ Oeacfyers (Lolle e During the last few years the growth of the Teachers College has been phenomenal, and in accordance with that growth many readjustments and extensions have been necessary. The college has now outgrown the modern, sanitary building, which was built for it seven years ago and which at that time seemed to be entirely adequate. Next year it will occupy as much floor space outside this building as within. Its faculty now consists of twenty-three thoroughly trained specialists. Its departments of instruction now include Secondary Education, Elementary Education, Physical Education, Home Economics, and Manual Training. All departments lead to special certificates. The Training School is the laboratory for supervised teaching. A complete reorganization has been effected for the coming year. Hereafter there will be the Secondary School, the Elementary School, and the Kindergarten-Primary School. The Secondary School will include the Senior High School and the Junior High School. The old academy, whi ch a few years ago was reorganized as the secondary department of the Teachers College, will be retained as the Senior High School. It is fully accredited with the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. It will continue to offer unusual opportunities to those who wish to prepare for college entrance, as well as to those who wish merely to complete their high school work. The Junior High School will consist of a new ninth grade and of the seventh and eighth grades, which formerly belonged to the Elementary School. Under the reorganization, the Elementary School will consist of an intermediate room, a demonstration fourth-grade room, and a second primary room. The Kindergarten-Primary School will occupy the present location of the Kindergarten. The combination of the first grade and the kindergarten will be of distinct advantage in the training of primary teachers. With this readjustment, the future of the Teachers College is very promising. Its duties and responsibilities moreover are very great. During 1923-4 it enrolled 582 college students for teacher training. There are two hundred candidates for certificates for 1924. It is the hope of all the members of the faculty that this college may grow in its capacity to serve the state. Par e Twnity-llirce
