EDUCATION DEPARTMENT Psychology in practice There have been no comprehensive changes in the organization of work in the Education Department during the past year, hlowever, three elective courses have been approved by the State Department and have been added to the curriculum,- these are elementary education, character education, and clinical and abnormal psychology. The college student receives his training in psychology, child study, and educational theory from a diverse group of well-trained instructors. Dr. Selzer, the head of this department, has been certified by the state as a public school psychologist with in- structions to conduct a clinic here at the college and to render clinical aid to its service area. West Chester is one of the six teachers colleges in the state thus accredited. For a number of years there have been no additions to the Education staff, but this year it is with a feeling of great sorrow that we omit from this page the name and picture of our beloved friend. Professor Arthur D. Cromwell, who passed away during this last summer. tDUCATION DEPARTMENT Vr. McKelvie, Mr. Light, Miss Clark, Dr. Miss Burnet, Miss Connell, Miss Smi Tvi enty-four
