Because of the rapid growth in the University's music de- partment, the Ohio Department of Education during the past year approved the public school music major. Seniors in the college do their student teaching in public schools of Toledo and suburban communities. A teacher placement bureau is maintained for the con- venience of administrators who may desire the services of qualified candidates and for the convenience of the candi- dates themselves. Last year the placement bureau found positions for 138 seniors and alumni of the University in public schools in several states.
