While teaching in the grades, Miss Segars and Mrs. Lancaster also assisted in teaching the higher classes-Miss Segars in mathematics and Mrs. Lancaster in English. The present faculty is found elsewhere in this volume. IV. THE SCHOOL PLANT During the year l9l5 the material equipment of the School was greatly increased by the erection of a handsome and commodious dormitory for girls, at cost of approxi- mately 550,000.00 This three-story brick building, of classic architecture, was erected on the southeast corner of the original site, thus forecasting the definite abandonment of the magnificent plans for the Greater Normal described in a former issue of the Palladium. The plant now consists of the Main Building, the Library, the Manual Arts Build- ing and the Dormitory on the original site, and four lots just purchased and lying just across the street to the east of the original site, altogether with a present estimated value of Sl 50,000.00 V. GROWTH OF PATRONAOE The increase of enrollment from 258 to 444 in the normal department in six years shows a steady and healthy growth-a growth all the more satisfactory when it is re- membered that entrance and graduation requirements were raised during the period, several popular departments were eliminated from the course, and that the War drew away prac- tically all young men. Another gratifying feature of the enrollment and showing its widening influence is the fact that approximately 05 per cent of the students enrolled are non-residents. VI. IVIISCELLANEOUS Pomrs Besides the subjects already treated there are many minor points of interest in the record of the work of the Institution, such as the beginning of regular publication of the quarterly bulletin in March, I9l4, the revision and standardization of courses of study and the adoption of a uniform series of textbooks for the Class A Normals in I9l5, the launching of a campaign of public education upon the nature and functions of normal schools in 1917, and the placing of the School at the disposal of the United States Gov- ernment in I9I8 for use as a training place for a unit of the Student Army Training Corps. While all of these are interesting school notes, it is sufficient for present purposes merely to mention them, except the Student Army Training Corps, which receives spe- cial treatment as another page of this issue of the Palladium.
