COLLEGE SUBHEADS An important man in the life of every teacher from Kearney College is Mr. Del Danker, director of the Placement Bureau. Mr. Danker not only helps the future teachers find positions, but advises them as to sched- ules and salaries. As a result of Mr. Danker's Teacher’s Training Program, men and women who leave Kearney College to accept positions in secondary education will have had the ex- perience of observing classes in the Kearney Public Schools and of practice teaching under the supervision of Kearney Public School teachers. Primary teachers receive experience in the training school in the A. 0. Thomas building. Mr. Danker is interested in train- ing future teachers of America in the best possible method, that is, the practical applica- tion of knowledge acquired. 55131 The first requirement for good education is good teachers. Teacher training and psychol- ogy of learning is stressed by Kearney’s Educa- tion Department, under the direction of Dr. H. C. Stout. Dr. Stout prepares the educa- tional program in such a way that it may change, as times change. His primary goal is to improve the fields of education for both primary and secondary teachers. He is well known, nationally, as an educator, for his thesis entitled Variations of Normal Children is included in the libraries of many colleges. Dr. Stout also has the responsibility of the vice-presidency of the college. During ab- sences of the president he takes charge of meetings, grants permission for student activ- ities, and is present for many social events. After hours, Dr. Stout is a golf enthusiast.

COLLEGE DEANS... Girls with troubles and with favors to ask, all find an interested friend when they talk it over with Dean of Women. Alice Robinson. Maybe someone wants late leave for that special dance, or maybe they are having trou- ble with some seemingly impossible lesson. Everything seems to have a brighter future after hearing those words of encouragement from Miss Robinson. Bewildered freshmen seem to feel more welcome and important when the Dean calls them by their first names, and upperclassmen are pleased to know that they are remembered from previous years. As sponsor of Women's League, Miss Robinson helps plan interesting activities and programs for those Tuesday meetings. ..Any time and in any situation the girls know they have a faithful counselor.
