The Don Bottum Chapter of the Future Teachers ot America is a new organization on Northern's campus this year. Although newly formed, this club's meetings have featured speakers who discussed topics such as social security, teachers' retirement. and the European school system. Plans for the fu- ture include study trips to the various schools in this area, observations of instructors' teaching meth- 68 ods, and actual work with children of different age levels. Northern's chapter can be considered one of the pioneer college groups in joining the F.T.A. move- ment. The chiei purposes of this movement are to interest young people in the teaching career, and to acquaint them with the teaching program.
