Milestones The Board of Wisconsin Normal School Regents, at a meeting held during the summer of 1926, authorized the Eau Claire State Normal school to offer, after September 1, 1926, Four-Year Courses for Junior High School and other elementary school teachers, leading to the B. Ed., or Bachelor of Education, degree, and to grant this degree this year to regularly enrolled students successfully completing any of these courses. The Board of Regents further authorized this school to offer, after September 1, 1927, Four-Year Courses for Senior High School Teachers, leading to the same degree, and also provided that, from the date just mentioned, the school should be officially known as the Eau Claire State Teachers’ College. In pursuance of these authorizations, the local school has offered, this year, Degree Courses for Junior High School Teachers, eventually will offer Degree Courses for Teachers of the Grades below the Junior High School, and next year, similar Courses for Senior High School Teachers. Two-Year Diploma Courses for elementary teachers of grades below the Junior High School will be continued. The 1927 Periscope therefore has the pleasant duty of recording the approaching graduation of students, seven of them, who, cither in June or at the close of the approaching summer school, will be granted the B. Ed. degree. We believe that they will be the first of thousands who. in the years to come, will be given this high endorsement by the Eau Claire State Teachers’ College. Page Twenty-Six
