Something New This year a new idea in Teacher training was initiated here at Toronto Teachers' College. The students in the Post BA. Course underwent a year's training somewhat different from that of the regular one year course. Per- haps one of the most noteworthy highlights of the new scheme was the programme of two hour seminars held twice weekly throughout the year. During these hours the students of both forms combined to engage in many unique and interesting activities which included visits to special education classrooms, visits to art, music, and physical education classes in Junior Highs, hearing speakers in the above areas and on team teach- ing, a panel discussion on discipline, a lecture and practical experience in the use of dramatics, a discus- sion of creativity , and many others well remembered by the students of forms two and three. The pictures on these two pages were taken on an all day excursion to the Toronto Island Nature School. The students of the Post B.A. Course welcomed these seminars. Not only were they enioyable, interesting and an appreciated break from the routine of regular classes, but they were also educational and informative. It is our hope that this new idea. in teacher training will be retained and enlarged upon in the years to come, thereby enabling many more students to profit from it.

The College llt Home The formal at the Inn on the Park was worthy in- deed of every expectation. The lovely Centennial Ball- room was graced with ladies, gentlemen, masters and guests of Toronto Teachers' College while Benny Lewis and his band provided a good variety of dance music. The highlight of the evening was the crowning of Miss Toronto Teachers' College for 1966, Beth Reynolds, along with her princesses: Olwen Roberts and Lauriel Chabeaux. The sincere and diligent efforts of the At Home com- mittee, staff advisors and student volunteers were well rewarded, many thanks to all of these people.
