League of Women HE League of Women in the School of Education was organized in 1927, to carry on work similar to the Leagues in the other schools of the University. The league has three representatives as members of the L. O. W. Council. This Council is a medium of control for all Leagues in the University. As an aid to seniors who are in financial need, the council has established a scholar ship. To make the girls feel at home, the League emphasizes social activities. All women undergradutes in the School of Education automatically, upon registra tion in the school, become members of the League of Women. President .................. Vice-Preridezzt .....,...

It proposes to promote ac uaintance and common understanding among the members of the administrative an instructional staffs and among the student bodies of institutions for the professional education of teachers in the Eastern Statesg to promote understanding and cooperation between teacher-training institutions on one hand and public school authorities on the otherg to interpret to the public the significance of the servicc of professional schools for teachers and to present to the public a more adequate statement of the legitimate needs of these institutionsg to encourage the serious and constructive study of the prob- lems of normal schools,-teachers' colleges, and University Schools of Education, and lastly to develop a body of dependable literature on the objectives, the policies, and the programs of service of the professional schools for teachers. There is no set meeting time for this organization. However, an event that is anxiously anticipated by each member is the Annual Spring Conference. This year, the meeting was held at the Hotel Pennsylvania, New York City, on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, April 16, 17, 18, 1951. At these Conferences, the topics chosen for dis- cussion were limited in scope and very sharply defIned. Preparation was intensive, reports compact, and general discussion pointed. Although the name of the organization specifies Eastern States, membership to the association includes representatives from all parts of the country. This organization is one of rapid growth and constructive accomplishments. 134
