Commissioner of Education Commissioner’s Message The theme of this yearbook, ‘‘Freshmen Enter New Frontiers of Education,” is indeed timely. Throughout our broad land new attention and concern arc being given to teacher education. Great emphasis is being placed on the improvement of teacher education by providing many opportunities to develop a broad, general education, as well as to receive education in depth in a given subject matter area. The State Hoard of Education, the College administration and faculty, and the State Department of Education are continually striving to make the training experience at Plymouth Teachers College an effective one which truly meets the demands of our times. We all congratulate the young men and women at the College who have chosen teaching as their career. It is a demanding yet rewarding profession. Dr. Charles F. Ritch, Jr. Charles F.

President’s Message The Class of 1962 will be entering upon active service in the teaching profession at a time when “New Frontiers” is a popular political slogan. In education, it seems to me, the frontier thinkers are devising new means ol woiking toward the solutions of rather old and persistent problems. Teaching machines, television, other audio-visual devices and techniques aie simply new approaches to the persistent problem ot developing knowledge and awareness of pertinent facts and problems in as large a segment of the human race as possible. Recent movements within the profession to have the teachers themselves take more direct responsibility for the selection, admission, and retention within their ranks of the members of the profession are interesting but not new. For centuries it has been recognized that those who are entrusted with the development of a nation's human resources should be that nation s most competent persons. YV hat is new is the more concerted action by a powerful national professional organization to apply its own standards and sanctions to more rapidly assure this competency among those privileged to be called “teachers.” More recent concern by our national government about our educational system and our obligation to help other nations with theirs is a manifestation of the growing awareness that man’s conquests of space may go for naught unless men can learn to live together on these new frontiers with love and respect for each other. If humans are to be able to follow the advice of St. Paul to “be perfect, 1m of good comfort, be of one mind, and live in peace” the sound leadership and guidance of dedicated young men and women such as are numbered in the Class of 1962 is indispensable. Developers of the “New Frontier.” I salute you! Harold E. Hyde President 11
