A MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN OF THE TEACHERS COLLEGE THE Teachers College has continued to show healthy growth during the past year. Not only has the number of students pursuing the courses leading to the degree ot ' Bachelor of Education increased, but large numbers of prospective teachers in the College of Letters and Science are taking advantage of the opportunity to complete .1 part of the training required in Education for the general secondary credential. It is hoped and expected that this number will grow continually larger, thereby bringing about a better mutual understanding between the colleges. A very interesting step forward has been the creation of a demonstration school in connection with the Alexandria Street Public School. Here opportunity is given to students in training to observe the methods used by teachers who are master craftsmen in their fields. In a sense the work is comparable to that of a clinic in a medical school. It is hard to overestimate the value of this type of observation to those preparing to teach. For the future our effort is directed toward continually improving the quality of both students and instruction intheTeachersCollege. Assoonastheadministrativepolicy of the University renders it expedient, all students will be held to the requirements for the ]unior certificate in the College of Letters and Science as a prerequisite to the pro- fessional studies of the upper division. Our hope is the creation of a teacher training which in its own field will be second to none m the country. A MESSAGE FROM THE DEAN OF MEN INSPIRATION born of the great opportunity knocking at our door should fire the imagination and stir the hearts of all true Californians. Ours is the oppor- tunity to build a new and a great University. Everyone is dreaming of beautiful buildings and picturesque lawns which we are to have at the new site. There is danger, however, which lurks in the shadow of this beautiful prospect. In our enthusiasm for these material things we must remem- ber that the real University is not made of bricks and mortar and of rolling greens. The most important phase of our building is not waiting upon deeds of land and the voting of bonds. The foundation of our new University is being formed today. The Administration has the opportunity to recruit a truly great faculty. Faculty and students may construct a foundation of high standards of scholastic achievement. The students have the opportunity during this period of growth to lay the corner- stone of a healthful and uplifting type of hero worship. The student community con- tains many kinds of folks. Among them we find the cheap politicians, grafters, idlers, fussers and social butterflies who fritter away their time, and others who dissipate their energies and faculties by many forms of excess. There are also serious minded and industrious folks, whose moral judgments are sound, who have clean habits, who adhere to their basic purpose of scholastic endeavor and who participate in extra cur- riculum activities in an intelligent manner truly beneficial to themselves and to the University. Upon what type of achievement shall we bestow the reward of prestige? What kind of folks shall we place m the positions of power and influence in our stu- dent community? What sort of heroes shall we set up for future generations of stu- dents to emulate? Ours is the opportunity to mold the real University of the future. (Q a-. o? M
