1 Q 'Q - . QL i P P v il I Q, 1 Q. 2 PRESIDENT SEERLEY l D. and , I I IOWA'S EDUCATIONAL PROGRESS 9 2 President Seerley was a pupil in one of the first free common schools conducted in the State of Iowa. The ' school was opened at South English in 1855, under a non- I certificated teacher from Virginia. There were yet no County Superintendents in Iowa and no administration ii of schools except by the local school board. In 1866 when President Seerley wished to prepare to 4 enter the State University, there were no high schools for g this purpose. He became a student in the University preparatory department at Iowa City where he took a , 2 y F g short course that equipped him with the essentials of sec- I ondary education. While he was city superintendent at ii 'ly Oskaloosa he was a member of that notable body of dele- ,I a , gates which constructed, for Iowa, uniform terminology W, E I of grading, and adopted rules to make uniform regula- iw . tions for graded schools. Before, all was chaosg all was , i' 'wi , indeplefldyenceg all was non-comparativeg all was uninter- I preta ,e. Q, During his remarkable life-time, our President has , ei P i known personally every State educational oHicer in Iowa PF' L and most of those in the Nation. He has taken an active ill ,Q , part in all of the leading educational movements of the X, I i , State and of the Nation. These have included all of the 5 4: Tl e developments of high school educationg all of the devel- I opments of higher: and professional education 5 all the de- f velopments in rural education, and all of the far-reaching Q ' plans adopted for the improvement and training of teach- al,i,yl,N ersin Iowa. and in other States of the Union.
