16 Stec·ens Point State No rmal School.

The following courses of study have been established by action of the Board of Regents, viz. :

1. An English-Scientific Course for four years. 2. A Latin Course, fou r years. 3- A German Course, four years. 4· High School Graduate Courses of two years, based upon each of the

above. 5· A Domestic Science Course, two years. 6. An Advanced (Post-Graduate) Course, one year. 7. An E lementa ry Course of two years. 8. A One-Year Professional Course. g. A Une-Year Common School Course.

CouRSE FOUR above may be taken in TWO YEARS by well prepared graduates from High Schools having four-yeat· courses, and Course 7 may be taken by strong gr<J duates from High Schools in ONE YEAR.

ADVANCED (GRADUATE) COURSE.

By the <~ction of the Board of Regents, an additional year, practically a post-graduate year o f study, is offered to those students, H igh School graduates and others, who wish to prepare themselves for teaching in the High Schools and higher graded schools of the State. Such students are earnestly advised to use three years instead of two for the upper coLtrse, to secure greater breadth o~ view, and more thorough equipm ent in those branches which they will be called npon to teach.

:\fuch of the work which woul d be embraced in such additional course of one year, is a! ready offered and has been taken by some students in this school. Reference is here made to the electives in Latin, in German, in Physics, in Chem­istry, in Draw ing, in Hi story and Economics ; and addi tional work will be offered in pedagogy and practice teaching. (See follow ing pages describing work in those branches.)

Page 18: STATE NORMAL SCHOOL - University of … · NORMAL SCHOOLS Ex-OFFICIO ... SuPT. JoHN CALLAHAN ... 10 Stevens Point State Normal School. Name. Dyer, Grace, Evenson, Myrtle,

Stevens Point State Normal School. 17

COURSE FOR GRADE TEACHERS.

By similar action of the Board of R egents, the President is authorized to modify the fu ll courses leading to the diploma, to meet the wants of students who aim to prepare themselves especially for work in the PRIMARY and INTERMEDIATE grades of the public schools.

Under the direction of the President in each case, students of this class will be permitted to elect forty weeks of special training and study in the Departments of Practice and Pedagogy as a substitute for an equivalent amount of work in Political Economy, Solid Geometry, Advanced Science, or History of Education. This will provide for more extended work in Observation, Practice, Methods, and ind ividual stud ies in Pedagogy relating to elementary work.

Such electives will be a rranged at the beginning of the Senior year. Atten­tion is called to the Pract ice R eport, page 14.

For DOMESTIC SCIENCE CoURSE, see pages 25, 26, 46 ; also Bulletin No. IS.*

SHORTER COURSES.

The ELEMENTARY CouRSE (page r8) comprises, in effect, the first two years of the English Course.

HIGH ScHCOL GRADUATES are admitted to this course with a credit of one year, the branches in which credits are given being selected according to the proficiency of the student, as appears from his certified record of standings. The studies to be taken will be so selected as to include all the professional work of the Elementary Course, and something in each principal line of academic studies, including forty weeks in Professional Reviews. Strong students may thus com­plete the shorter course in one year, or a li ttle more, according to their ability. (See also paragraph 2 (a) page sr.)

The O NE YEAR PROFESSIONAL CouRSE is intended to be helpful to those teachers of experience and maturity who wish to take advantage of the oppor­tunities offered for additional training, and study of the problems of the teacher. Selection of definite topics and grade of work will be made by the President in conference with each student at the school.

The ONE YEAR CoMMON ScHOOL CouRSE is specially designed to be useful to the students expecting to teach in the district schools as under-graduates. Each year many students, after a few quarters at the Normal School, go into the common schools as teachers, and this course provides a better selection of studies for a shorter period of preparation, and brings the student in earlier and closer relations with the Training Department.

*Circulars or special Bulletin s will be sent freely on request.

SPELLING and WRITING must be taken by students who are deficient in these important branches; not only during the first year, but whenever such defici ency appears.

Declamations, Compositions, or other forms of literary and rhetorical work, to prepare pupils to appear in public and express themselves effectively, will be required after the first term of the first year. Each student will be expected to prepare one exercise each quarter.

New clas ses are formed in most common branches at the beginning of each quarter, and the work of the fir st and second quarters is repeated during the third and fourth quarters. Students may thus teach for a part of a year, and resume their studies in the school without loss or delay. Consult the calendar on the cover.

R egular attendance upon Chorus Practice and Gymnasium Classes will be required through the course. Students are expected to register in one or the other each quarter.

Reviews.

The work done at the High Schools in Geometry, Physics, and Botany may be credited, but only after a personal conference with the teacher of the depart­ment and on his recomm endation. T his will usually be based on examination. Students who show proficiency in these branches may enter advanced classes and receive additional credit upon the full High School Graduate Course. Elementary Botany, or Agriculture, or High School Physics, when taken regularly in class, will be accepted for the required quarter of Natural Science. On the other studies of the regular elementary course (see page r8) not listed above, credits are allowed, bas ed on the High School standings, unless the standings brought by the student are low.

Regular attendance upon Chorus Practice and Gymnasium classes will be required through the year. Students are expected to register in one or the other each quarter. Declamations and Compositions or other form s of literary and rhetorical work, to prepare pupil s to appear in public and express themselves effectively, will be required once each quarter.

Those High School graduates who expect to complete the regular two-year comse for High School graduates, are advi sed not to take the elementary course here shown. Experience proves that it is difficult to so at'range the studies of the higher course '·" not to lose time, on account of the necessary sequence of studies and the diffir c;:ty of the advanced subjects.

In accordat~ ce with the ru le of the Board of Regents, High School graduates 1d10 do not present sati sfactory standings in any branch of the regul ar Elementary Ccurse shown on page r8, will take that branch at the Normal School, either in cla ss or by examination.

OBSERVATJON AND SCHOOL MANAGEMENT,

Ten weeks are given to OBSERVATION in the Model School and to the discus­sion of methods, but as this is the first professional work in the course, it is elementary in character. The text read in class is the "Manual of the Course of Study for Common Schools," with frequent references to the general library. The observations are so arranged that recitations and class exercises a re seen in every subject and in every grade, so that pupils may see for themselves how far the theoretic presentation of each subject is realized in actual practice.

Students make notes of their observations, and later the class meets to discuss what is seen, the principles involved, the methods used to realize those general principles in actual practice. This work should result in quickening the student' s power to see, making him more critical in his recitations, and giving him standards by which to measure the excellencies of the work in all departments of the school.

The second quarter deals with general topics of school management. Time is given to the study of the school code, and the powers and duties of teachers and school officers; heating. lighting, and ventilation of school buildings; the making of a program; and control, discipline, and character building. A distinct effort is made to assis t students to avoid the difficulties which confront them at the beginning of their teaching, and to stimulate in them a sense of personal thoughtfulness and responsibility. If this result is reached, the question of how and when to puni sh or not to punish will give place to a deeper study of human nature. of moti,·es that control actions of pupils, and will lead to a better under­standing of the relation of the teacher's self-control to the discipline of his school.

THEORY OF TEACHING .

During this quarter the more important facts and laws of mental activity are studied. The mental processes are differentiated and discussed with direct refer­ence to illustrations drawn from the pupil's own experience. The nsefulness of such study fo r the teachers becomes apparent.

Frequent application is made of the general laws stnclied to the common methods of teaching the several branches of the common school course, to deter­mine how far those methods seem most desirable, and in accord with accepted pedagogical principles.

The several purposes of the recitation are carefully studied, and the method best adapted to secure each end, for the class as a whole and for the individual

n~embers.

I t is the a im to make teachers more in te lligent in observation and cnttct sm, through the usc of a better standard of judgment, and more th oughtfu l as to principles governi ng devices.

FIRST METHODS.

T he study of the important mental fact s and laws, in the course cal led Theory, is followed naturally by a study of the general principles of teaching and education b<1sed upon these laws.

The poss ibil ity of any science of educat ion, the aim, purpose, presuppositions, and factors of education are chiefly considered; then the place and special work of the school is studied, the principl es controlling the selection and adjustment of courses of qudy. and the interrelation of studi es are discussed.

The subjects of attent ion, interest, and apperception are nex t carefully con­sid ered from the pedagogical standpoin t as the psychological bases of good methods of teaching.

T he inductive and deduc tive methods of teaching are di scussed and the psychological principles and value and applicability of both methods a re set forth.

Then the teaching steps are dwelt upon at length, especial attention bein g paid to the differen t methods of presentation which may be used, and to the applica­bili ty of the different methods and steps to the different common branches.

SECOND METHODS.

This is a ten weeks' sub j cct. T he pupil s who enter thi s class are expected to ha vc had Elementary P sychology, and the principles of teaching that are studi ed in First Methods. The aim in Second Methods is to determine, in the li ght of these principles, the best ways o f teaching the special subjects. Reading, Language, Grammar, Arithmetic, and Geography are usually discussed. The shortness of time necessitates the om ission of one of these. In each subj ect em­ph<l sis is placed upon thos e particular ph ases and topics which are of fund amental impor tance, or which are fo und to be most poorly taught. T eachers of experience are allowed to take thi s subject along with thei r first quarter of practice teaching. For inexperienced teachers it is an immediate preparation for their teaching of the branches di scussed and shou ld be completed before their prac tice work in any of these is begun.

PRACTICE TEACH I N G.

Observation, Theory of Teaching, E lementary Psychology, and Methods a rt; a necessary prepa ration for the pract ice teaching.

After the first quarter of each year, classes are assigned to practice teachers sevea l weeks before they are expected to assume charge of them, so that abundant preparat ion may be made, and teachers may become acquainted with their classes . Each teacher rece ives an outline of the work he is expected to do during the quarter, and submits for criticism his plans fo r the first unit of work. After the start has been made, plans for a week in advance are written out and handed in each Monday. These plans are read by the supervisor, by a critic teacher, or (if in drawing, music, gymna stics, manual work, or domestic science) by a special teacher. Critici sms and suggestions are written in plan books or g iven in con­ference and stu dent teachers are then thrown upon their own resources in charge of their several classes, and held responsible for the results. Classes are vis ited

Page 31: STATE NORMAL SCHOOL - University of … · NORMAL SCHOOLS Ex-OFFICIO ... SuPT. JoHN CALLAHAN ... 10 Stevens Point State Normal School. Name. Dyer, Grace, Evenson, Myrtle,

30 Stevens Poiut State N an na! School.

by supervisors, critics, or any members of the faculty interested. T he vi sit res ults either in a written comment left with the observed teacher, or in a personal con­ference, when help is freely given and recommendations are made.

Students usually have charge of a class for a period of ten weeks, but for good reasons the time may be shortened. In assigning practice teachers to classes, an effor t is made to supplement the previous experience of the teacher and to fo rwa rd her fu ture plans. In view of the greater number of pri ma ry te2.c hers, and the pressing need of more effi cient supervision of lower g rade work by prin­cipa ls of school s, and the better chance to s tudy the simpler fac ts o f mental development, it is believed that the earlier yea rs of the course a re bes t worth the attention of those intending to teach. At the same time, oppo rtuni ty is not lack ing to teach in the upper grades.

T he practice teaching dnring the last yea r has ranged through a!l the grades, from kinderga rten to ninth grade, thu s affording a wide variety in g rade, in subj ect, and in size and character o f the class. \Vhen a student teach es a grade of twenty members in a room where he has the oversight of another grade engaged in study, his pow ers of di scipline are fairly tested; whil e with smal ler groups in the recitation room, he may with fewer distract ion s study the ar t of teaching. A large Training School g ives abundant opportunity for practice teach­ing in the wide range of subject s conta ined in the course of study.

Since rgoo an arrangement has been in force by which a cri tic teacher and stud ent teachers have charge o f, and do all the teaching in, two rooms of the T hird W a rd Public School in the ci ty of Stevens Point. There a re enrolled about 75 children of the second, third, and fo urth grades ; but on account of the partial adopti on of half-yearly prom oti ons, there are six distinct classes. Stud ents as­signed to this school for practi ce have in general longer daily periods of teaching th an in the regular Normal Training School classes, have frequently to take cha rge of the main room and ass um e full direction and di sc iplin e therein , and the amount and variety of pract ice teaching afforded each student is greatly increased. A s this department remains a public school, and is a part o f the gen­eral school system of the city, the advantages for the teaching student are obvious.

Besides frequent individual and class conferences with the supervisors of practice, a class meets daily for discussion of specific methods adapted to certain branches and to certain grades. This work is made as concrete as possible by the presentat ion of exercises by members of the class or by the regula r teacher in ch arge of model grades. These are the usual dai ly recitati ons of some class . inspected aft er discu ssion in the methods cl ass, and they are fo ll owed by further consideration of the matters illu strated.

It is the purpose of thi s depar tmen t to help each teacher to grow, by direc­tion, sugges tion, and reflection upon wh at is seen, rather than by correction or repress ion. One of the most hopeful signs is the voluntary seekin g o f conferences by pract icin g students. A reference to page r 5 ,,·ill show th e amount and grade of pract ice teaching during th e current year.

P SYC HOLOGY AN D H I STORY OF TEACHI NG.

So fa r as possible, the study o f Psychology in the senior year is made personal and introspect ive. The student 's own mental activities are carefully studi ed in the light of the observation and conclus ions of other in vesti gators, as a bas is for a sound men tal philosophy. By the aid and g uidance of tex t and teacher he is led

Stc~ 'CIIS Point State ]1/ormal School. 31

to an elementary knowledge of the nature of mental operations and the laws governing them. Constant reference is made to personal experiences and to observed methods of teaching, that the study may result in practically helpful suggestions rather than in mere speculative knowledge of theories.

In the History and Science of Education the experiences of the most promi­nent educators, those who have given definite impulse to educational movement, are carefully studied to find the secret of their success, and to separate, if possible, the permanent from the accidental features.

PROFESSIONAL REVIEWS.

Professional Reviews in the fundamental branches will afford opportunity under each branch for careful discussion of the essentials of the subject, of the order of presentation of topics, or the correlation of one branch and department with another. It also gives an opportunity to test the proficiency of a student not only in mastery of the branch, but also in the ways and means of effective presentation. This work has relation, therefore, to the department of methods on one side, and to the scholastic work of the special departments of study on the other.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE AND LITERATURE.

ENGLISH LANGUAGE.

A thorough examination in the elements of English Grammar will b ~ reqnired for entrance into the Normal classes. Students will be required to show knowl­edge not only of the facts of etymology and syntax and the essential elements of sentential analysis, but also of th e usual common terms employed to express these facts.

The first year class will spend one quarter (TO weeks) in a careful review of the main divisions of the subj cct, directing the work toward fitting students to speak and write the language correctly, and to teach others to do so.

The work in Elementary Composition has covered the following subjects: Punctuation; Development of the Paragraph ; Development of continued discourse in description, narration, and exposition.

Much written work is required and a fair amount of time is given to oral

composition. In all classes studying language, composition will be constantly insisted upon.

Frequent short exercises, occasionally varied by larger, broader undertakings, will be the usual rule. The precept is thus enforced by example and application .

The chief ends sought are a knowledge of th e structure of the sentence, an appreciation of the element s of style. and the power of pleasing. forcible expression of one's thought. In the advanced class in Rl1etoric (taken by Juniors and High School graduates), A. S. Hill's Principles of Rhetoric is the basis of twenty

weeks' work. After the first term of the first year, each student prepares one declamation

or other literary or rhetorical exercise each quarter. Second year students present under the general direction of this department,

one composition each quarter of the year. Juniors and High School graduates prepare one essay or oration each quarter of the year.

Seniors present two essay s or orations, besides that required at graduation.

Page 34: STATE NORMAL SCHOOL - University of … · NORMAL SCHOOLS Ex-OFFICIO ... SuPT. JoHN CALLAHAN ... 10 Stevens Point State Normal School. Name. Dyer, Grace, Evenson, Myrtle,

32 Stevens Point State Norrrwl School.

By special arangement with the teachers in charge of these exercises, any approved work presented at a public meeting of either literary society or of the Oratorical Association may be credited to the student.

READING.

Two ideas control the instruction of this branch. First, an effort is made to secure reasonably correct and agreeable oral reading of ordinary selections in prose and poetry. Correct articulation and clear enunciation are insisted upon, and the principles of expression are studied and practiced until a fair degree of proficiency is attained.

In expressive reading, the class is expected to apply theory in the class room work. The selections for practice are expected to give point to the theory, and are so chosen as best to illustrate the fundamental elements of conversational ton es, and public speaking.

The class in Literary Reading studies critically such selections as Emerson's "Behavior," Scott's "Mannion," Lowell's "Vision of Sir Launfal," Tennyson's "The Holy Grail." Such selections are given as will g ive a better insight into literature and will help to develop a better taste for good literature. Care is taken, too, that they may know how to present these and other selections to classes of different grades.

In addition to the class-room work, a considerable amount of outside reading is required. This is intended to be done more rapidly for the purpose of giving the student a somewhat broader view of literature and to introduce him to a larger number of our best writers.

LITERATURE.

The full course continues th rough four quarters. In the first, it is sought to develop a just spirit of literary criticism and to lead students to the true inte r­pretation of literature. To accomplish this, many masterpieces from the best American and English authors, illustrating fi ct ion, the essay, the oration, and the various forms of poetical composition, are carefully studied. The second quarte r, which concludes a shorter course, is devoted to the great American writers; the third and fourth are given to English authors. To make all so att ractive and interesting that they will leave behind them a vivid appreciation of the beautiful and the powerful, and a strong desire to read that which is elevating and inspiring, is the chief purpose of the course.

That there may be some continuity in reading, and that thought may be in a measure systematic, a text in American and one in English literature are placed in the hands of the students, but the greater part of the reading is from the works of the writers studied. Repres entative wri ters from each epoch are compared, and to the great masters is given abundant time for an acquaintance with the peculiarities of their styles and an appreciation of the sources of their charms. Frequent reviews and citiques are called for , and one or more essays of length are written to embody the results of independent reading. The text-book library furnishes a plentiful supply of classics to draw for class use, and the gene ral library satisfies the needs of every individual. Reference books are abundant and are freely used. Frequently during the latter part of the year the reading of each student is independent of that done by the others.

Co L: RSF: I. ( Li lelll cntary.) -The time gi\·en io this subj ect is so limited th at fa ­vorable opportu ni ties will be afforded to students who des ire to purs ue the study beyond the limi ts of the course. Each student will be furni shed with a di ssect ing microscope an d inst rum ents for use in the study of the plants themselves. F ruits and seeds, th e germination and methods of reproduction in pl ants, the st ruc ture and fo rm s of fl owers, leaves. stems, and roots are some of the subj ects of investigation in the laboratory. U pon these topics the library will furni sh abundant readings.

PHYSIOLOGY.

CocRSE I. (Eicmcutary. )-The course in E lementary Physiology takes ten weeks. This includes a study of the skeleton, the tissues of the body, the action of the circulatory, respiratory, and digestive systems, by means of dissection and the miscroscope. Much stress is laid upon the stu dy of the nervous system and its relation to the other systems of the body.

Hygiene is taught as a natural outcome of physiological knowledge, that the pupils may be enabled to comprehend clearly the necessity for the observance of hygienic laws.

Herea ft er, to enter the class, students mu st be prepared to pass an examination on so much of simple anatomy and physiology as is included in the ontline in the Elementary Conrse of Study for Common Schools, or will take a preliminary quarter in Hygiene here at the School.

Course II , (Advanced.)-In the advanced course spec ial attenti on is given to the circul atory, digestive, and nervous systems. Studen ts who desire to take tl1i s comse should be able to pa ss a sa tisfactory examination in the work covered in the elementary co urse; and should at least have had elementa ry chemistry and physics. Thi s will he essenti ally a physio logy course, and will consi st of a thor­ough study o f the hi stology and fun ction s o f the different organs. One ha! f of the tim e is devoted to laboratory work and th e ot her half to recitat ions and lec­ll:res. ·whi le man is taken as the type, yet espec ial emph<lsis is laid upon general animal physiology.

BACTERIOLOGY.

There has been introduced during the pas t year a course in Bacteriology. Th is study is compulsory for those electing th e Domestic Science Course. Yeast, l'vio ld and Bacterial ferm enta tion are giYen especi al emphasis. Some attention is also given to the germ th eory of disease.

PHY SICAL SCIENCES.

It is beli eved tha t the experim ental veri fica ti on of a physical law, by the st udent. furni shes the very best basis for an in te lligent appreciat ion of the working of that law in phenomena occurring outside of the laboratory.

JVIuch care has accordingly been taken to provide faciliti es for making such fundamental experimen ts in the variou s departments of phys ics . From the experi­mental data obta ined, the stud ent is led to draw such inferences as are warran ted by the facts, and to determin e what is and what is not proven by them. T his is z. ccomolished by making the results of the exper imen ts th e subj ects of discus sion and criticism in the daily recitations.

The laboratory course accompanying Course r, and required of all students, begins w ith a somewhat extended series of measurements commencing with the simpler kinds and leading to a more exact work with divider s and scale, micro­meter caliper, verniered caliper, balance, an d other instruments of precision. A s soon as a reasonable degree of faci lity and accuracy in the use of the appa ratus is acquired, the student begins the laboratory study o f the principles and laws dis­cussed in the recitation. The laboratory work requi res five hours per week fo r twenty weeks.

As far as poss ible in this course, the determinat ions made a re quan titative. The solution of problems both by mathematical and by g raphic methods is a

prominent fea ture of both these courses. T he apparatus is selected with careful reference to its use by students and the

supply is increased as may be necessary.

Course II.- T his course of twenty weeks is devoted to a careful study o f heat, including calorimetry, an extended study o f electricity, and a somewhat thorough examination of the elementa ry principles of sound and light.

R ecitations, discus sions and illust rative exp eriments occupy five hours a week tllrough th e course. Five hours a week will al so be required in th e laboratory;

the work consists of quantita t ive de te rminations of mass, density, g ravity, hea t. electric consonants, etc.

For this work the labora tory is supplied wi th verniered ga uges, micrometer calipers, balances of precis ion, a standard barom eter, accurate standard thermom ­eters, galvanometers of various patterns, res istance boxes, Wheatstone bridges, telescope and scale, a siren, organ pipes, vibrating plates, a spectroscope, re fraction aJ'paratus len ses. qui te complete proj ection appa ratus, and po la ri zing microscope.

The purpose of this laboratory course is to familia rize the student with the manipulation and practi cal use of instruments of precision, to illustrate the generar methods o f physical measurements, the verification of physical laws, and the determination of physical constants.

Counc III.-A more advanced cour -;e o i twenty weeks is offered in the fir st term of each year to properly qualified students. Fourteen w eeks are given to the study of E lectricity and six to the study of Light. Thompson's Elementary Lessons in E lec tricity and Magnetism is the text in that subject. In Light the works of Glazebrook, Wright, and Thompson are chiefly used. In each subj ect the time is divided between recitations, discussions, and labora tory work.

Course IV.-This course of ten weeks is design ed to meet the requirements of the work in Domestic Science. The subjects treated are: The Mechanics of Fluids, with spec ial reference to questions of heating, ventilation, and water supply; H eat, incl uding calorimetry, after which a study of Fuels is taken up and the calorific power of a sample of each class o f fu els is determin ed by calculation from its chemical composition .

Boiling points of fluids . In this part of the work the means by which and the extent to which the boiling point of water can be varied are determined ex­perimentally.

Ten hours per week divided between laboratory work and recitati on are required.

comes a series of experiments so selected as to give an in sight into the nature cf chemical ac tion and the operation o f chemical forces.

The systematic study of "non-metals" is then taken up in the laboratory. The phenom ena there observed and recorded are made th e subject of reci ta tion and di scus sion in the class room, where special illust rative experiments are also per­formed. Students are thu s led gradually to a fam il ia rity with chemical phenomena, and the way is opened to understanding of chemical laws.

About five weeks are devoted to the study of metals and their sa lts.

Course II, Advanced ( Gradu.ate.)-Chemical Analysis and the elements of chemical philosophy.

Prac tice in th e va rious operations of chemica l ana ly;.;i,- will be fol low ed by the analys is of simpl e sa lts, more complex compounds, commercial products, ores, etc.

Two hours per day fo r twenty weeks. Thi s course is wholly opt iona l in addi t ion to all tha t is required for graduation,

and is offered fo r the special benefit of those who wish to acquire necessary skill in using apparatus and mas tery of facts to enabl e them to teach the subj ect accept­ably in good schools. I t is open only to those who have had the elementary course c utl in ed aboye or its equivalent.

C otwse IlL- P rerequ isite: Chemi stry I , or its equi valent . The work in cludes an introduction to the Chemistry of the Carbon Com­

pounds, in which each st uden t is requ ired to prepare a number of substances, such as alcohol, an ether, a chlorine derivative, an acid. etc., and thus to become ac­quainted with some of the fund amental princ iples and operations, and a few of th e typical compounds met with in Organic Chemist ry.

The study of foods is then taken up. T he chemical and the physiological propert ies of each of the foo d principles is studi ed and the common tests by which each is recognized are made fa milia r.

The study is car ried far enough to fu rn ish a sa tisfacto ry basis for work in dietetics. Practice is also given in the detection and id entificati on of tl1e various food adulterants.

Other topics taken up are: T he na ture and acti on of the common food preservatiws, with practice in their ident ification.

PHYSIOGRAPHY, TWENTY WEEKS, ELECTIVE.

I. Text: Davis's Physical Geography. Reference texts: Physiography o f the United States, the U . S. Geological Survey Reports, Physiographic Folios I, II and III.

The first term is devoted to the Lands. There is a treatment of land sculpture and river development, the evolution of land forms and various types of coast line. Typical areas are studied in detail. T he physiography of the United States receives special attention.

Field trips, laboratory work on contour maps, and stereopticon views furnish illustrative material.

II. Texts: Waldo, Elementary Meteorology; Davis, Elementary Meteor­ology.

The second term is devoted to a course in meteorology. This course includes some work in mathematical geography. The ear th as a

whole, its shape and motions and attitude toward the sun are treated to make clear the fundamental conditions of our climate. The daily weather map, issued' by the United States Weather Bureau, is studied. Storm paths are charted and weather maps constructed.

HISTORY A D CIVICS.

PREPARATORY HISTORY.

Texts : I\Iontgomcry's Leading Facts of American History; T homas's His­tory of the United States.

Certain portions of the text-books a re carefully studied, but the requ ired reading in supplementa ry books is of greater importance to most pupils of the preparatory class. Such books are used as present in interesting form the details of history that can not be found in texts; for example, Scudder's George Wash­ington, Franklin's Autobiography, Elson's Side Lights on American History.

NORMAL COURSE IN AMERICAN HISTORY.

Text: Hart, Essentials in American History. The library readings required in this course constitute about one-third or one­

half of the work. Exact references, and in many cases outlines of topics, are furni shed in order that this reading may not be desultory. Particular periods are thus exapnded, such as the period of French exploration, in which students of Wisconsin history a re particularly interested; the period immediately preceding the American Revolution; or the poli t ical history of the period when slavery questions were prominent.

T he books most freely used are the three volumes of the "Epoch Series." A number of sets are furnished for this purpose. Other works are such as the following: Parkman's works, John Fiske's histories, American Statesmen series. Johnston's American Politics, Lalor's Cyclopedia, American History Series, Chan­ning's United States, Roose\'elt's \;\/inning of the \Vest, Eggleston's Beginn ings of a Nation, Bancroft, Schouler, :\fcMaster, vVinsor. Rhodes, and Burgess.

PROFESSIONAL REVIEW IN HISTORY.

Text: McMurry, Special Method in History.

T he recent extension of work in the field of history, in both elementary and high school comses, renders necessary the discussion of its fundamental principles on broad lines. The psychological basis of this work is sought and the application of pedagogical principles is noticed. The study of primitive methods, cave, cliff, and lake dwellers, and the development of civilization from its crude beginnings through adaptation to envi ronment and through inven tions and di scoveries, has a sociological application of great importance. History stories in the more limited sense, chiefly in the fie ld of American biography, are treated as to sources of material s, method of presentation, and objects to be attained.

Th e place and time given to history in the courses of city schools and in those of the Vfisconsin graded schools are studied from outlines of these courses. The literature of history is treated by contact with the books and discussion of their merits. Supplementary hi story reading for the g rades receives particular attention.

Hi storical courses in high schools are studied as outlined by the Committee of Ten and the Committee of Seven, and this work is exemplified by the brief treatment of some period of American history.

EUROPEAN HISTORY.

High School graduates may choose any one of the three quarters of General History.

T exts : \i\1' es t' s Ancient Hi story; Robinson's Hi story of \iV estern Europe; La rned' s History of England.

Purpose : T he aim of this course is to trace the origin an d development of' the political, socia l, and economic institu tions underlying our present civilization. \\Tide rea ding is required in order that the students may get into the spir it of these in st it utions. In addition to this wid e reading, careful and cri tica l compa rison of various autl1ors' Yi ews is required. Besides a long list of general reference works ava ilable for thi s course, there are duplicate copies of the foll owing works: Botsford ' s Hi stories of Greece and Rom e and Adams's Civilization of the ]'diddl e Ages: Eme rton's In troduct ion to the Middle Ages and Medieval Eu rope ; \ \/ heeler's Life of Al exander the Great. Intensi ve study upon particular periods is required throughout this co urse, and detailed reports on special topic s are presented by member ,; of th e class.

First Quart er.-After a brief study of the ancient civilizations, the remainder of the quarter is devoted to Greek history an d the earli er parts of Roman history. T he development of Greek achitecture and sculpture is studi ed to special advan ­tage since the department has a large number of excellent slic1es and the school is particularly for tunate in possessing a fine coll ection of art works. The inte r­

relation between the individual and his environment is mac1e especially prominent . during this quarter.

Second Quarter.-The work opens with a detailed study of the Roman civiliza­t ion und er th e Empire. A careful study as to the causes and development of the fe udalist ic system is follow ed by studi es upon the r ise of the European States. T hroughout the quarter interest is cent ered in the or igin and growth of th e Germanic institution s.

40 Stevens PoZ:nt State Normal School.

Third Quarter.-Beginning with the Renaissance period, the general course of modern history is traced, special attention being given to special periods, as the Reformation, the English and French R evolutions, and to the development of modern trade and colonial systems. The formation of the present European gov­ernments in the nineteenth century is studied. The partition of Africa, the struggle of nations in Asia and current political and social problems of world importance arc treated by means of topical work.

CIVIL GOVERNMENT.

Texts: J ames and Sanford, Our Government (Wisconsin Edition), Govern­ment in State and Nation.

The purposes set before pupils in this course may be stated as follows : ( I ) to gain an acquaintance with the facts of local government ( town, village, county and city) and of state government ; (2) to acquire habits of accuracy in learning and expressing these facts through the study of the Constitution and the statutes; (3) to obtain a broad view of the chief problems of local and state government i such as those a rising in connection with taxation, elections, and judicial trials): 1.4) to ga in an in terest in current events; and (5) to arrive at a full realization of the teacher's re,ponsibil ity in view of the ethical aspects of citizenship.

CIVICS.

Text: James and Sanford, Government in State and Nation. This quarte r is occupied with the study of the united States Constitution

and the workings of the National government. The main purposes within this field are the same as those set forth under the head "Civil Government." A greater proportion of the time is given to the discussion of current events, and to supple­mentary reading. The works of such authorities as Bryce and Woodrow Wilson, and the wealth of material found in the magazine literature of recent years, 2re

the chief sources for references.

POLITICAL ECONOMY.

Texts: Bullock. Introduction to the Study of Economics; ·wright; Principles of Practical Sociology.

The greater part of the time devoted to this study is spent upon the funda­mental principles of political economy, in order that a solid foundation may rw laid, upon which the student may base his future reading and study. Practical illustrations of these elementary t ruths arc made prominent. The class studies one important topic for a few weeks, gathering materials from all availabl~

sources. It is believed that the study of economic principles should be supplemented by

a more distinct study of human relations on another side, and hence some 1ttention is g iven to the field of practical sociology. The object is to give students informa­tion along these lines, but it is also expected that students will acq uire the scientific point of view, and habits of precision in the discovery and use of facts and statistics.

LANGUAGES.

LATIN.

Three years is the time given to the study of Latin. The course includes four Looks of Cesar or an equivalent amount of Viri Rom<:e, seven orations of Cicero and four books of Virgil's Aeneid.

During the first year a familiarity with grammatical forms and constructions is gained and as much of C;:esa r's Gallic War is read as time permits. The work is both written and oral, the former for the more accurate study and analysis of difficult constructions, the latter for training th e pupils to readily grasp thought in idiomatic Latin.

Part of the orations in Cicero are read at sight and part are assigned for careful preparation. One lesson in Latin composition is given each week during the second and third years. Translation at sight is carried through the course.

GRADUATE CoURSE.-A fourth and a fifth year in Latin are offered in order that High School students, and those who have completed three years Latin in the Normal Course, may continue the study without repeating what has alre~dy been read. During the last few years the d ifferent advanced classes have read Horace's Odes and Epodes, Cicero's De Senectute, Plautus' Captivi, and Li vy. The variety thus offered from year to year affords an opportunity for extended study of the language. Rom an pronunciation is followed.

GERMAN.

The course occupies two and one-half years, but the authors read during suc­cessive years are so varied that those who desire may continue the study •)f German during the third year.

During the first year the grammar is carefully studied in connection w1th simple German sentences and the pupils are trained in writing idiomatic German. At the close of this work two easy plays are translated.

During the following year and a half the class read plays by some of the best German writers of the cla ss ical period. Among works that have been used are \\'illiam Tell, Maria Stuart, Iphigenia, Hermann unci Dorothea, Die Journalisten , Minna von Bernheim, Emilia Galletti, Nathan der ·weise; and some prose, Undine or Soli unci R aben.

High School Graduates doing a four th year of work read Nathan der Weise, Ekkehard, Tasso, and D ie Harzreise, and review the main points of grammar anct' keep up constant practice in composing.

Constant practice is given throughout the course in conversation and com­position, based on easy prose and Kron's "Daily German Life."

VOCAL MUSIC.

The "Elements of Vocal lVIusic" is regularly scheduled for a period of twenty weeks, and a beginner's class is fo rmed each quarter.

The aim of this course is to prepare every Normal student, first to understand and interpret with his voice any printed page of ordinarily difficult music; and, second, to teach others so to understand and interpret. Whatever of voice culture, musical theory and methods of teaching is necessary to secure the desired results, and can be given in addition to the indispensable practice in sight singing, will be given in the course.

Every possible aid is given to those who feel that they have neither voice nor ability to sing.

A third quarter of elective work will be given to those who wish to specialize with the idea of becoming supervisors or teachers of music in public schools. The work deals chiefly with methods of teaching music in the various grades, and practice in using these methods, and the remainder of the time is given to voice culture, ear training, and reading by note more diffirnlt music.

Opportunity is given each quarter for practice teaching in music in the Training Department, under the supervi sion of the Director of Music.

The Normal Chorus meetin g three times a week for practice and drill, is open to all students.

The many volunteer musical organizations of the school offer ampl e oppor­tunity for practice to those who appreciate the advantage, and who show special proficiency or capacity. T he Glee Club is an organization for men, and the Treble Cl ef Club furth ers the interest of the young women of the school. For the most part th ey are under the leadership of the Director of Music and study more elaborate mu sic than could be attempted in the regular chorus. They have repeat­edly furnished music for the rhetorical exerci ses, for commencement, and all special occasions o f th e school. Each year they unite in giving one or two public concerts, usually one in the fall quart er and one in the spring quarter. S uch work as "The Curfew Bell," by Lynes, and the "The Holy City," by Gaul, have been rendered at these concerts.

It is the purpo;;e of this department first, to cultivate the powers of observa­tion, selection, and judgment, that the student's ability to see and appreciate beauty in nature and in art may be increased; and second, to develop such a degree of technical excellence in drawing as shall enable him to teach the subject with in­telligence in the elementary schools of the state.

The course includes work in representation or pictorial drawing, composition, illustration, instrumental and free-hand constructive drawing, constructive and decorative design, clay modeling, and methods of teaching. The mediums used are pencil, charcoal, crayon, pen and ink, and water colors.

The drawing course for high school graduates is twenty weeks; for those taking the full Normal course, thirty weeks. Students taking the Primary and Intermediate Course are offered in addition to this a twenty weeks' course of drawing and constructive work which will include blackboard sketching, paper folding, cutting and weaving, sewing, basketry, cardboard construction, and ele­mentary wood-working with the knife.

It is the earnest endeavor of this department to develop readier, more ob­servant. and more competent teachers for all branches of study as well as fm drawing. Graphic expression with pencil, brush and chalk is an essential part of tl1e work in geography, science, literature, and in all subjects in the grades. The training of the eye, !nne!. and brain obtained in the drawing cbss is a means to that encl.

A par t of the equipment of the Art department is found in a collection of carefully selected reproductions of the best works of art of different periods and schools. Besides the casts, masks. and reliefs especially suited to the drawing classes, there are in the halls and different cLls s rooms of the building, casts of the following subjects, with others.

Venus de :\lilo. \Vingecl Victory. Hermes, Pra.riteles. Faun, Pra.riteles. Clytie, Praxiteles. Diana of Versailles. Venus Genetrix. David, M e1'cie. David, Mic-hael Angelo. :Vfose s, Michael Angelo .

A prominent aim in the course of Mathematics is to teach carefully the fundamental principles underlying each subject. Thus, in arithmetic, the student is taught the artificial character of the Arabic notation, and how the fundamental laws underlie the four operations; in algebra he is taught the nature of opposite numbers by many concrete illustrations, the relation of the quantities of the literal notation to numbers, and the logic of the solution of equations; in geometry he i' taught the import:Jnce of a thoro knowledge of the working definitions and geom etrical axioms and the propositions to be used most frequently. In short careful attention is paid thruout to fundamentals, in the hope of aiding the young teacher to overcome the difficulties beginners find.

For the past two or three years the common form of the recitation in which all the members of the class are sent to the board at the same time has been more and more replaced, especially in the algebra class, by asking a single member to write and talk simultaneously, the whole class giving attention. This manner of recitation is a valuable training for the work of teaching and has the merit of holding the attention of all the members of the class, of the stronger ones since they can giYe aid to the one reciting if needed, and of the weaker ones since they can more readily follow the one reciting.

ARITHMETIC.

In teaching the Normal Arithmetic class (ro weeks), two objects are kept in view, viz., bringing in review and supplementing the student's knowledge of the subject; and correcting any errors, crnclities, o1· imperfections which may remain from previous study. The course is begun by showing that while arithmetic is a maze of processes, there arc only eight or ten fundamental propositions really needed to explain every question that can come up. .\lany of those who come to the school arc found to be unskilled in mental calculations, and to lack speed and accuracy. As a foundation for skill in figures the student is asked to learn all the factors of all the numbers up to roo. This is followed by the mental solution of many of the written exercises of factoring and fractions, and the oral solution of numerous problems in analysis. A ftcr this is begun the systematic study of analysis. proportion, and percentage, correlating each to the others, and showing that each is merely another language for the solution of the problems of the others. In the solution of difficult problems both graphical and x-methocls are used. as well as the ordinary one. tho cleat·ing of fractions and transposing· are a\·oided. being replaced by rea soning adapted to the problem. Following this the

general methods of calcul ation, viz., cancellation, aliquot parts (including any converge method) , and v isua liza tion are studied as special topics, the problems used being taken largely from denominate numbers and common measurements. A ll thru the term, stress is laid on the use of checks. The aim is not so much to keep the student from making mistakes, but rather to enable him to systematically look for and find and remove them. The quarter's work is concluded by a study of the inductive method as applied to certain selec ted topics. T hus it is shown that the logical order is (a) N umerous conct·ete examples, (b) Induction, (c) Gener­al ization . This ·is illustrated still furth er by examination of the method of the author whose text-book is used. A few lesson plans in decimals, percentage, etc., are also given.

Students who show, on entrance, a mastery of this branch on the scholastic side, are encouraged to take other mathematical or professional work in its place.

For those who cannot pass sa tisfactory examination at entrance, a preparatory class is maintained which takes up in detail the study of the more elementary portions of the subjects. The chief purpose of this class is drill to secure accu­racy and fac ility in computation.

ALGEBRA.

The elementa ry course in algebra covers 30 week s and includes the mastery o f the fund amental opera t ions, factoring, fractions, simple equations, powers, roots, and quadratic equations. T he advanced course ( ro weeks) inc! udes radicals, pro­portion, logarithms, progressions, interes t, indeterminate coefficients, binom ial theorem, and choice.

GEOMETRY.

The work in plane geometry extends over twenty weeks. It is in tended that in thi s time all the most important theorems and problems of geometry commonly given will be learned, together with a large number of original ones; besides, general exercises wh ich illustrate the more important th eorems will be solved. The different methods of teaching geometry are con trasted, as the heuristic vs. the didactic; the analytic vs. the synthetic ; the genetic vs. the E ucl idean.

One quarter ( ro weeks) is devoted to solid geometry.

TRIGONOM ETRY.

Those seniors who have a sat isfactory record in geometry and are able to take advanced work instead of rev iews, and espec ially those who look toward college or uni,·ers ity st udy, are permitted to elect plane trigonometry instead o f solid geometry. Some students find it profitabl e to take both subjects, thus in suring more borough preparation for teaching advanced classes. T he course includes field work and snrveying and leveling with a surveyor' s transit so as to make concrete what is learned in the text.

DOMESTIC SCIENCE.

The object of the Domestic Science course is to afford training for the girls in those subj ccts that affect home life-plain sewing, drafting, cutting and fitting garments, the intelligent cookery of food materials, so that the best results will be obtained with the least waste of material, and the least expenditure of time and money. The students are taught the physiological effects of food, how to plan meals so that they will contain the proper amount of nutrients with a minimum expenditure of money; in short, how best to care for the home and its inmates in health and disease. The woman who can do this well must influence those with whom she comes in contact to become better members of that larger house­hold-the community.

Now here is the application of science more important than in the home. The sciences which underlie the intelligent and successful conduct of the home are, above all others, chemistry and physiology; therefore, any well arranged course of Domestic Science must be based upon a good foundation in these subjects. As these can not he well understood or applied without the elements of Physics and Biology, these branches also must receive attention in the course of study. (See pages 25-26).

As will be seen by reference to the course of study, the students in this course take the professional reviews, thus fitting them to teach in the grades as well as to be special teachers of sewing and cookery.

In the grades the sewing and cookery train the eye and hand of the child, while giving lessons valuable in later life. Aside from the value of each subject itself, it lends itself readily to correlation with other subjects. Reading, arith­metic, geography, and language lessons may be put to practical application here; and conversely, it stimulates interest in those subjects.

For the Domestic Science Department there are provided on the first floor three rooms; in the center a lecture room and laboratory about 25x40 feet; on one side, a room about rrx25 for pantry and store room, and on the other side a dining room about 13x20 feet. These are well furnished with the necessary equipment. In the laboratory each of 22 pupils has her own separate outfit, con­sisting of a gas stove, oven, drawer of necessary cooking utensils, mold board, etc. In the center, easily seen by all, is the teacher's demonstration table. A laundry outfit has also been furnished, so as to embrace the complete round of houshold work A complete coal and wood range has been supplied, with the usual hot water tank, as well as a gas range. There are also a sewing room, 22x30 feet , equipped with cutting tables. sewing machines, and other necessaries; and an "emergency room," r6xr6 feet, also used as a sick room, and model bed room, for instruction in household sanitation and economics. Tl1e sinks are supplied with

hot and cold water.

While all furnishings, tables, sinks, utensils, are of the simplest sort, just such as may be had in the plainest homes, they are of the best grade and style for everyday use, thus giving practical lessons in household economy. Moreover, the teachers so trained will be able to teach the subject in the schools under ordinary conditions, without the elaborate equipment sometimes thought necessary.

A special circular on this subject will be sent to any one interested in the

details of courses and methods.

LIBRARY.

For the reading room and library there is a light, a1ry room near the center of the house, on the second floor, adjoining the assembly room, and ef!sily acces­sible from any other part of the house. It is open all clay during the school week, and Saturday mornings. Students are free to draw books or read at any time when not actively engaged in class exercises. The books are thoroly indexed and classified, and a complete card catalog makes all the resources of the library on any special topic readi ly available for the use of any class or student. Students may also thus become acquainted with the simplest principles of library economy and the labor-saving devices and plans of libi·ary management most generally adopted.

The library is free for all students of the school except for the small charge of twenty-five cents per quarter of ten weeks, for maintenance and care of Reading Room. Care has been used in expending the funds available for this purpose so as to secure the most serviceable collection of books for each depart­ment of the school; the departments of pedagogy, history, biography, civics, general literatnre, and science are especially strong, and there is liberal prm·ision of cyclo­pedias and books of reference. Additions made in each line duri11g the present season give an excellent working library of about ten l housand volumes. Among the books already on hand are some valuable public documents and many pam­phlets of special service to the student. About 500 volumes of bound periodicals have been obtained, giving continuoLlS files of some valuable magazines and journals of recent years. In geography, history, and political science these are in constant use.

The librarian and her assistant devote their whole time to the service of the school thru the library, and are ready at any time to help the students in their readings or their investigations. The teachers will render general assistance, but will more especially look after the interests of their several departmen ts and of students pursuing studies under their direction.

In addition to the usual duties devolving upon the librarian, she will meet the school in sections for instruction in the convenient use of the library outfit, and in such matters of library economy as choice of books, ordering, classifying, recording, and other matters of interest to teachers in view of the growing use of lib raries and the increasing supply of good books furnished the teachers under our present library laws. She will also have general charge of library readings to b<: pnrsued by the students. One purpose of these classes is to cultivate a taste for good litcratnre, another to acquaint teachers with the best juvenile literature and the best methods of using district school librarie s.

PHYSICAL TRAINING.

The work in physical training has these ends: r. The health and development of the individual. 2. Eease and grace of motion thru mastery of one's self.

3. Preparat ion of the stud ents to teach simple school gymnastics. Students a re measured at the beginning and end of the school year. From

the measurements individual work is prescribed for development and symmetry, to ovrcome the defects and deformities resulting from accidental causes, un­hygienic manner of living, faulty seating of school rooms, and sometimes previous occupation.

Classes meet every day. Three work days in the week are given to floor exercises, one to individual work and theory.

Students who are physically unable to take the usual exercises, or who would be inj nred by them, will be excused as long as necessary from the floor work, but will be requ ired to be present for prescribed individual work. Students will not be excused fom the classes whose standing position and carriage do not war­rant it, nor until they have shown their ability to conduct school gymnastics.

THEORY AND METHODS.

All work in the public schools under the present organization must be pre­ventive rath er than curative.

Classes from the practice school meet every day for drill. Besides the regular work. pupils have marked cases of spinal curvature or other physical deformities are given owrk adapted to overcoming their defects. Great stess is laid upori recreative as well as educational gymnast ics; games are introduced which will de­velop spontaneity, alertness, and enthusia sm. Much attention is paid to the devel­opment of rhythm of movement and co-ordination of muscular action. Candidates for graduation from any comse will be expected to show due proficiency in this department.

The gymnasium is pen every day after close of school hours until 5 :oo o'clock for voluntary work and games, and on Saturdays as may be arranged for games and voluntary exercises.

THE GYMNASil:M.

The Gymna sium ( 51-6x69-6) with a height of 25 feet, one of the largest and best equipped school gymn asiums in the state, has a running gallery with incl ined track, and is furnished with abundant apparatus for light and heavy gymnastics. This is sufficient in. quantity lo accommodate the school fully, and in variety em­braces all the really di sti nct and serviceable machines. Besides the usual bells, clubs, wand s, there are chest we ight s in fu ll variety, rowing machine, q-_t;Jrter circle, vaulting bat·, jump stand . parallel bar, upright bars, German horse, Swed ish horse, travelin g rings. climbing ropes, battl e ball , basket ball fi xtures, and other needed and com mon appli ances . There is also a full supply of the most use ful anthropomet ric appliances.

Thi s department is und er the care of a specially trained and experienced in­q rnctor who devotes her entire time to physical training.

The bath rooms adjacent to the gymnasi um are provided with tub, shower, and sponge bat hs, dressing rooms and lockers.

The young ladies prov ide themselves with the regula r blue flannel gymnasium costume (blouse and di vided skirt), permitting freedom of movement and healthy act1v1ty. T his may best be got after reaching the school, and will cost about $4.00, a litt le more or less, accord ing to the quality of the material. T hey can be made by a regular dressmaker at Stevens Point at this price, and wi ll be unifo rm in style and quality.

For the young men, sweaters and tennis shoes are necessary. The boys in the Model School have ten nis shoes for their work. All members of the men's class and all who partake in any athlet ic games will be expected to provide themselves with suits or sweaters, and shoes.

In addition to the usua l class exerc ises, the physical measurements of eac:. studen t are made the basis of special prescriptions of exerci ses sui ted to the needs of each individual. The "free hour" in the gymnasium and other appoint ed t imes_ may be used for this practice.

All students are expected to take the phys ical training unless reasons of health fo rb id. T he physica l measu rement s taken during the pas t years reveal not only the call for such atten tion to bodily condit ions, but the direct and eviden t benefit to those who faithfully and wil lingly fo ll ow the form s of exercises pre­scribed.

TRAIN ING SCHOOL.

There is organized fo r pract ice teaching for Normal st udents, a Training School, having a kin dergarten, and nin e grad es, each covering one year. Pupils fini shing the N inth g rad e are admitted to the First Year of the Normal School proper. The course of study is a liberal one, embra cing beside al l the common branches, in struction in draw ing, singing, const ructi on work, sewing, cooking, phys ical training in the gymnasium, and in the last year a choice is offered of Latin or German. Students who complete the ninth grade and elementary course stand upon the same footin g in the Normal, and in seeking admis sion to co llege as Normal grad uates, as those who enter the Junior year in the Normal School on completing a High School course. Many students coming to the Normal School with too lit tle preparation, are entered in the eighth and nin th grades, which thus serve the purposes of a preparatory class. Some pupil s who come with th e com­mon school diploma find these classes best adapted to thei r need, affording a satis­factory review and more thoro grounding in the fundamental subjects.

In this Training School are employed under the general direction of the supervisor of practice, five c ri tic teachers who have charge of their respective g rades, always teaching several classes, but for the most part observing and super­vising pract ice teachers.

A very small tuition fee is charged furnished for a moderate rent charge.

KINDE RGARTEN.

A K inderga rten was established in 1902. This is the necessary found a­t ion for the educational plan of the Norma l School and serves with the g rades of the Model School for practice and observation, credit being given for work done here as in the other departments.

T his department is a bright, cheery spot of the buildin g, well equipp ed with the usual kindergarten material, decorated with pictures appropria te for children's needs, furni shed with plants, flowers, and when possible, live creatures .

T he best kindergarten is th e well regulated school home, where children g row naturally into helpful social bein gs, are t rained to use eyes, hands and feet in response to simple commands and are happy in being a part of, and helping to ca re fo r, their harmonious su rroundings, outdoors and within.

Pri mary teachers wi th some k indergarten traini ng are constantly in demand. I t is expected that all students making a specialty of primary work wi ll spend some time in the kindergarten, in order that they may at least have some definite, practical knowledge of its underlying principles, be able to use the g ifts which are helpful in sense training, and to direct children in the varied constructive work in pap er, cardboard, wool, and raffia. A study of the games suitable fo r lower g rades is also an important featnre of the primary teacher' s preparation.

Students wishing to become kindergar ten teachers will be all owed to devote much time to this work. In ca se they prove their natural fitn ess for it they should be abl e at the end of a yea r to enter one of the good training schools for kinder­gartners to their advantage.

SCIENTIFI C AND HISTORICAL MUSEUM.

During the pas t yea r there haYe been gathered into the la rge room formerly used as the li brary the vari ous col lect ions of the school now constituting a mu seum of some in te rest. Besides the geological and natural hi story specimens which the school has owned for some t ime, a collec tion of objects of historical interest has been gathered, partly by giit and partly by Joan from the students, alumn i, and other fri ends of the school. T he hi storical collection now includes some Indian r elics, num erous relics of Ci,·il war times, old newspapers , Spani sh war relics, rare coins and old weapons. Thi s collection now fill s three cases, and additions to it, in the form o f either gift or loan, will be greatly appreciated by the school. A rrangemen ts may be made by correspondence for defraying the cost of trans­por tation of such dona tion s as may be of especial value to the mu seum.

COLLEGE CREDITS.

Graduates of Stevens Poin t Normal School are admitted to the University oi 'Wiscons in as Juniors if they wish to pursue the Philosophical Course, leading to the degree of Bachelo1· of P hil osophy in Pedagogy. This course requires two full years .

If they wish !o enter as candidates fo r the A. B. degree, they arc admitted with varying credits. according to courses previously pursued. The amount of credit ranges from 30 to 45 units, or from one to one and one-half years. Students are th erefore able either with or wi thout summer school work to complete their course for th is degree in two to three years, according to ci rcumstances. Graduates of this school, both at :Madison and el sewhere, have completed courses for this degree in two years.

Full course graduates of the Stevens Point Normal School who have had two years of fore ign language, ancient or modern, in the advanced comse of the Normal School, added to two years at least o f fo reign language required for entrance, will be granted by DELOIT CoLLEGE a credit of 36 out of I20 units required fo r graduation. A dd itional credits of nine un its may be given for additional work in foreign lan guage or advanced co urses in science. By this arrangement " Normal graduate who has made proper selection of studies in the Normal School may complete the desired course in two or two and one-half years.

S imilar credits and opportunities are offered at NoRTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY and at U NIVERSITY OF CHICAGO.

The demand for teachers for responsible places, who have added U niversity scholast ic atta inments to Normal School practical training for teaching, is such as to challenge the attention of ambitious students who expect to remain permanently in the teach ing profess ion. Such students are advised to consider possible at­tendance at a U nivers ity whi le selecting their courses at the Normal School.

Of the graduates of the Steven s Point Normal School , about fi fteen per cent l1ave already fini shed or are pnrsuing University courses.

HIGH SCHOOL GRADUATES

It will be seen that well-prepared ·students, admitted to the Junior Clas s on presentation of final standings in the high school, may, by steady application, complete the N erma! Course and obtain the diploma at graduation, in two years. Some students, whose habits of study are not well enough fix ed to carry them along in the freedom o f the school, am id frequent attractions outside of class, will require more than two years while the exceptional, or more mature, graduates may sometimes do more than the req uired work in the given time, or do all the work in less than the time allowed. In all cases, graduation will be determined by the character and amount of work done, rather than by the time spent in the school, and students will be recommended to the Board as candidates for gradua · tion whenever the requirements are met.

Students who fini sh their course during the year usually find opportunity to teach for the remaind er of the year.

Graduates from High Schools having a three years' course will, upon con­ference with the P resident, be credited with one year's work, selected from those branches in which they shall seem to have done best work. Such graduates may, by close applicat ion, finish the H igh School Elementary Course (see page 2 1 )

and receive the certi fic ate at the end of one year. If they do not expect to engage at once in teaching, it is frequently possible to arrange a more satisfactory and profitable co nrse by disregarding the elementary cer tificate and pushing on directly to the end of the full course.

T he changes and additions authorized by the Board o f R egents enable thP school to offer fuller and richer conrses than heretofore in several subjects. A. full yea r's work in Physics or Chemistry is now open to the g raduate from the High School beyond the work he has al ready had, and th e laboratories are equipped to permit indi,·iclual study to any desirable extent. Similar g raduate work in biology will be provi ded for on demand. (See pages r6 and 17) . One or two years of Advanced Latin or German beyond the regular four years' work of the Hi gh School may be taken if desired in place of :\'lusic or Drawing.

ENTRANCE EXA?I1INATION.

Admission to the Normal cl asses is regulated by the ru les already g iven prescribed by the Board of Regents. Examinations in the branches required for a third grade cert ifica te, C'xccpt Constitution s, Physiology, and Theory and Art of Teaching (that is, in Reading, U nited States Hi sto ry, A rithmetic, Grammar, and Geography) , are held at the begin n ing o f each quarter. Candidates , whi le rccei,·ed at any time, arc mgen tly ach· iscd to come at those ela tes which are shown in the calendar. on the la st page o f the cover o f this catalog. I3y so doing they may begin when new classes a rc form ed, and thn s adjust their work Inore readily and satisfactoril y. Candidates who have written upon any regular teachers' examination. may ask the Superintendent to send their papers to the President of the school, who will cause them to be ma rked on each subject, and an estimate of spelling and writing will be made upon the papers sent. T he result of thi s examination will be sent directly to the applicant. who is thu s enabled to take the entrance exam inati on am! learn hi s or her pos ition in tl1e sch ool before leaving: hom e.

ADVANCED STANDIN GS.

The credits allowed on certificates or standings brought from another school will be assigned after con ference with the President at the school. It is often true that a student, after getting acquainted with the facilities the school offers and the standards maintained in each branch, can choose more wisely what credits to ask and what studies he can profitably review.

Students who show in the class to which they are ass igned such famil iari ty with the subj ect and such mastery of express ion and of method of presenta t ion as to make it probable that their time can be better employed elsewhere, wi ll be passed from these classes at once and allowed to take up other work. Persons of maturity and of experience w ill be permitted, on favorable showing by exam­inations, to en ter advanced classes and to take, early in the course, the profession~! work for which they a re prepared. At the same time it must be urged that those students do not get the best results from their efforts, do not lay any solid fo undation for fu tme growth, whose thoughts are centered on passing quickly, even though creditably, in the subjects prescribed. T he best service the faculty can render is as a teaching body, ra the r than as examiners. The strength of the school lies in the spiri t, and the opportun it ies and facilities offered, and tin ,(: is an essen tial condi t ion fo r all growth. The bes t students soon learn that they can not afford to advance too rapidly, losing the advantage of rec itation and con­ference with students and teacher. All such examinat ions for promoti on and to pass subj eels otherwise than in the usual course of class work, mu st be applied for in advance of the t ime when they are to be taken and will be definitely a rranged by the teacher of the class.

I t is the belie f of the faculty, based upon much experience and careful ob­servat ion of the work of ambitious and capable students that as the subj ects are studi ed in this school, four regular daily recitations of prescribed lessons are all that shoul d be attempted. While that is not made an absolute rule, it will be foll owed in nearly all cases.

56 Stwens Point State Normal School.

For th e benefit of teachers who have a special object in view, or who can not expect to continue in school long enough to fini sh any course, special studies may be selected under the advice and direction of the President. That is, students may choose fro m the cou rse with reasonable freedom such studi es as are availablP, for which they show su itable preparation. Such selection will not, however, be permitted to interfere with the interests or progress of regular classes.

·whil e those will be always welcome who come only for short periods, or as observers simply, yet students are advised to make their plans to stay at !east a year, if that is possible. In that time any methods that might seem novel will have lost the ir newness and the spirit which an imates the method may be more fully appreciated. The longer a student remains in the school, the less, we hope, will be the poss ible tendency to use certain forms or formul as in teaching, and to pin one's fai th to a certain method or device labeled "Normal"; and the more clear and dist inct, from constant illust ration, will be one's view of the underlying principles upon which all good teaching res ts.

T eachers who wi sh to make SPECIAL PREPARATION for teaching in certain lines, as in Dr a wing, Science, or Language, are offered free use of the libraries, labo­rato r ies and appa ratus, and will be given such ass istance and direction by the several teachers as they may need, and th e regular demand s of class work permit. So far as poss ible, such spec ial aims will be considered in ass igning pract ice teach­ing and directi ng observat ion and reading.

The fac iliti es offered by the school for such special preparation have been enjoyed dming past yea rs by several students. Their presence reacts also upon the regular classes in helpfu l ways. Such special students a re not charged tuition, but their sen ·ices are utilized and their progress aided by teaching classes in the Model School.

cm,[MON SCHOOL REVIEW CO URSE.

vVhen this State Normal School was first opened in September, I894, the prospectus conta ined a proposed one-yea r cou rse fo r the benefi t of those teachers who needed a review in common branches, but could not plan to spend enough time at the school to compl ete the Elementary Course. T he schedule then ar­ranged was very flexibl e, and permitted a wide choice of subj ects and grades.

The featu res of thi s course to which special attention is called, are : first, in each branch the inst ructi on begins at a point easi ly reached by a good student from the common school ; second, to Engli sh and branches that must be taught, time enough is given to sec ure a fair mastery; th ird , in mathematics, science, music, draw ing, there is a choice offered of some work that is new, in sp iring, helpful to ambitious young teachers; fonrt 11, some elementary professional work, including at least one quarter of pract ice teaching.

Th ese four quart ers of professional work must be especially useful in modi­fy ing prev ious ideal s of teaching, of discipl ine, and of the best way to ser ve the schools. It is the dom inant purpose of th is school to be helpful to the teachers in the most direct ways; therefore, the logical order of maste ry of subject, of theory and of method before adm ission to tl1 e practice sr:h0ol. is for the present. for the pmposes of th is experiment, in terrupted. This practice teaching will not be taken "as a matter of course," but only by those who have achieved definite success in preliminary work, and who arc approved by th e teachers of the school.

DIPLOMA OR CERTIFICATE.

Students who complete eith er ELEM ENT.\RY CouRSE will receive from the Board of R egents a CERTIFfCATE. This will entitle the hold er to secure from the State Superin tendent a license to teach in any common school for one year. When endorsed by him this certificate is equivalen t to a limited state certificate authori z­ing the holder, for a period o f fi ve years, to teach in any common school, or to be principal or ass istant in a high school having only a three years' course, or assist­ant in oth er high schools.

On the completion of either full course, GRADUATES will receive a DIPLOMA. This will ent itl e the holder to secure from th e S tate Superintendent a license for one yea r to teach in any public school of the sta te, and when endorsed by him thi s diplom a becomes eq uivalent to a life certi ficate authorizing the holder to teach in any publi c high school or com mon school o f the stat e. The endorsement of the State Superintendent may be secured upon p roof of one year' s successful expe­rience in teaching.

On completing the One-Yea r Profess ional Co urse, a Cer tificate or Diploma will be given, '!ccording to circumstances. ( S ee page 51 , Section 4.)

On the completion of the one-year "common school course," the student will receive a cert ificate to that effect signed by the President. ·while this is authorized by the Board of Regents, it has no legal validity, but is simply a testimonial of effective and commendable work done in the school, covering all the branches required for a third-grade certificate. vVhatever value it shall have for the holder will be due to the courtesy o f school officers, and their confidence in the effi ciency of the in struction g iven and the tests appli ed at the school.

By recent legislation, County Superintendents are authorized, at their di scre­tion, to give credit. as a basis for a teacher' s certificate, upon any final standings certified by th e President o f a State Normal School.

GENERAL INFORMATION.

LOCATION.

The six th State l\ormal School was located at Stevens P oint by act of the Board of R egent s, July 22, 1893 . The building was so nearly completed that the school was opened on the day ad vertised, September 17, 1894. The enrollment (see pages q-rs ) will show from how wide a district students have sought tht school, as one o r more are reg istered from thirty-eight different counties.

During the past year graduates of this school have taught in fifty-three coun­ties in Wisconsin.

Stevens Point is a ci ty of over nine thousand inhabitants, on the east bank of the W isconsin River, very near the geographical center of the State. It is an important station on the ma in line of the vVisconsin Cent ral Rai lroad, a little less than half- way from J'viilwa ukee to St. Paul , and from Ashl and to Chicago, and has four daily trains each way. The Green Bay, \"'inona & St. Paul Railroad also enters the city, furni shin g communicati ons cast and west.

It has been for many yea rs the seat o f a fl ourishing lumber trade, and more recently the water power and other natural ad vantages have been turned to ac­count in vari ous ways. Among· the important industr ies are paper mills, planing mills. furni tu re bctori es. foundri es and oth er prosperous manu factnrin g cnte r­pnses.

58 Stevens Point State Normal School.

Stevens Point is a qui et, orderly town, busy, well-governed; has paved streets and pleasant homes; lighted by gas and electricity; has a good water supply well distributed, a paid fire department and free mail delivery.

BUJLDING.

The building occupies a fin e site of ten acres, fronting on !vlain st reet, in the eastern part of the city. The Public High School and a fin e brick Ward School are in the immediate neighborhood. The building is large, conveniently arranged and well adapted to the pui·poses of a Normal School. It is of Black River Fall s pressed brick, ri sing abov e a basemen t wall of cream colored sandstone, with light cream colored terra cotta trimmings.

Beside the fuel and boil er rooms, a men' s cloak room. a laundry and light airy sewing room used by the Domestic Science department, th e basement has a gym­nasium, well furnished bath rooms and dressing rooms. The first floor is almost wholly given to the Training School, except that part occupied by the upper por­tion of the gymnasium. The second floor is occupied by the Normal School proper; the six science laboratories and reci ta tion rooms of the science department and a few other recitation room s arc on the third fl oor. The class rooms are large, convenient; the system of mechanical ventilation, controlled by the Johnson Heat Regulat01·, forces in to every room a su pply of fresh air of suitable temper­ature. The building is kept steadily at proper temperature in the coldest weather. A report made to the Board of Regents by an expert after a ca reful test shows that the air of the entire building may be changed five to six times an hour, securing abundant ventilation. All these rooms and the corridors are abundant ly lighted, and the finish throughou t of Georgia pine gives a cheerful, pleas ing effect.

The floor pl an of the second floor shown on another page will give an idea of the size and convenient arrangement of the building.

The lawn has been carefully graded and a beginning made in beautifying the grounds. The decorative scheme adopted uses almost ent irely the trees and shrubs native to this part of \Vi ,consin. Clumps of sumac, witch hazel, common hazel , winterberry, hawthorn, alder, a1·e the most conspicuous shrubs, tho there are al so found prickly ash, elder, woodbin e, bittersweet, snowberry, spiraeas, and seevral others. Elm, mapl es, linden, ash, white birch, cherry, white pines and sp ruces, are the t rees most used .

READING ROOM.

The reading room ha s grown steadily in interc't and attract iveness. Thru the matter thus supplied, the world is brought to our doors an d all the latest news and most advanced thought in va rious lines of human activity.

Twenty-five cents per quarter is collected of each student in the Normal and Preparatory classes fo r the maintenance of the reading room and othef incidental purposes.

The following periodicals are found on the reading room tabl es:

The editors o f the ··Normal Pointer," ' edited and published excl usively by the students of this school , have also cont ribut ed a large exchange list. These school papers afford student s an opportunity not only to see what other schools find worthy of mention in thei r experience, but also to compare ideals and achieve­ments.

STUDENT SOCIETIES.

Several literary societieS arc maintained by the st udent s of the Normal Department. The Arena and Ohiycsa are exclusively for ladi es; the Forum and Atheneum are composed of gentlemen only. The meetings of these societies give needed opportunity for literary cultu re, eloc ut ion , and parliamen tary practice, as well as incidental relaxation and di version. Th e programs show the usual debates, declamations, papers, essays and mt1sical numbers.

Two very popular organ izations, the Treble Clef Club, a ladi es' chorus, and the Glee Club, a male chorus, have been in existence for severa l years, and furnish much of the mu sic for specia l occasions in the school. Besides these, there are the V ivo Club for girls of the :\1odel School. qu a rtets, an d instrumental clubs, thu s g iving every membe r of the sc hool who is mu sically inclined, oppor­tuniti es for practice outside of regul ar cla ss work.

A Press Association has for the past eleven years publ ished "The No rmal Pointer." This association, composed wholly of student s, assumes the entire editorial and financi al responsibil ity of this publication.

A Young ":\1en's Chri stian Association and a Young \!\!omen's Christian Association invite the cooperation of a ll th e students of the school.

RECREATIO N .

The students maintain an Athlet ic Association, open to all interested members of the school. This body manage:< the home "field day" sports, and arranges for such fri endly contests with other simila r schools as may be pract icable and prcfi[­able. T he students of Lawrence U nivers ity and of vVhitewater, Oshkosh ;ned Superior N ormal Schools have taken part in such events at Stevens Point.

Football , baseball and tennis afford agreeable variety of out-door spo rt s. For the last named excellen t courts are provided. (See cut opposite page 6o.)

The gymna sium is open a pa rt of every clay for vol untary practice and exer ··

cise, and is freely used. Occasional evenings are g iven to :<ocial enter tainm ent, not only fo r rest and.

recreat ion (a sufficient reason). but in the full belief tha t in the development ot the soc ial nature and quicker sympathies wil l be found a source of power for the teacher. Whil e am usem ent can not be a main end in any well -o rdered life, the•·r. seems no reason why school or teacher should separate themselv es from common h uman life and its familiar enjoyments.

N ORMAL LECTU RE ASSOCIATION.

A Lecture Committee, composed of teachers an d student s, has fo r several yea rs had cha rge of a series of first-class lectures and concerts. Through the sale of tickets to ci tizens as well as members of the school, many high class enter­tai nment s ha 1·c been secured at very low cost. It is an educational opportunity as well as a rare privil ege to li sten to Graham Taylor, J enkin Lloyd J ones, George Kennan, H amlin Garland, E . Benjamin An drews, Francis W . Parker, J ane Addam s, J acob Rii s, Burton Holmes, Senator Dolli ver, Dr. Gunsaulus, Mrs. Maud Ballington Booth, E ugen e Deb s, Lorado T aft, VIm. J. Bryan, and other equally strong men and women who have spoken upon the Normal School platform.

An Oratorical As sociation has charge of the interests of the school related to the Inter- Normal Oratorical League. Thi s association also arranges for such debates or other literary contests as may appear feasible.

BOARDI NG .

R ooms fo r sel £-boarding may be had in convenient locations. Prices range from fifty cents per week upward, according to location, size and fu rnishing of the room. Suites of two or three rooms ca n somet imes be had very cheaply. Students arc not ad,·ised to adopt self-boa rdin g when any other plan is practicable, since there is a very strong tendency to fa ll in to ways of living not conductive to hea lth and vigorou s p ro secution of the work of the school. It mu st be remembered that cooking and housework take time: while to yield to the temptat ion not to cook means lowered vitality.

Board and rooms may be had together or separately, incl udi ng fu el and lights, at about $3.00 per week, accord ing to the accommodat ions fnrni shed an d di stance from the school.

vVhen only a few students live in one place, the condi tions are much more like those of family life at home, and favorable to studious habits. For this reason the school discourages placing a large number of students under one roof. It is not thought advisable, on the whole, for young men and women to board at the same house.

Students a re earnestly aLiYi sed to engage single room s whenever that is pos­sible, and thus secure reasonab le privacy for themseh·es, as a most favo rable condi tion of rapid prog ress and deYelopment of independence and self-reliance.

In several ca ses groups of stu dents l1aye fo rmed clubs and thus divided the work and red uced expenses.

A list is kept of suitable boardin g places to which stu dent s will be directed. Time and trouble may be saved by writ ing to the President to secnrc rooms before leaving home, and then students may go directly from the depot to their room s. The cost of carriage. incl udin g transfe r of baggage, w ill be from fifteen to twenty-five cents.

SCHOOL CH ARGES.

To those persons who pass the entrance examination for th e No rmal Depart­ment, and who declare their in tention to teach in the public schools of thi s State, tuition is free in the Normal classes. (See page 54·)

Those persons who do not expect to teach, but show them selves qualified to enter Normal classes, and those who enter the preparatory cla ss, arc received on the payment of tuition as fixed below.

For the maintenance of the Reading Room and care of Reading R oom and Library (now combined), twenty-five cents per quarter will be collected from members of the Normal and Preparatory classes and Ninth grade.

In the gymnasium a charge of ten cents per quarter is made for the use of private lockers for clothing. For the same charge, ten cents per quarter, lockers may be had in the cloak rooms; or both may be had fo r rs cents per quarter.

There are no other charges or extras imposed by the school.

For one who expects to teach and enters the Normal D epartment, the total necessary expense per quarter of ten weeks is as follows:

To this should be added as not absolutely necessary but exceedingly desirable and profitable, about $ro.oo per year for first-class lectures, concerts, social and literary meetings of the student body, or of classes. (See page 6o.)

These opportunities for social culture and for enjoyment and for getting a knowledge of the world are for many students more valuable than any one study in the course and more necessary to secure their advancement and greatest efficiency as teachers.

One hundred and fifty dollars is ample allowance for necessary expenses for one year of forty weeks. Each student will vary this sum according to the amount of his incidental personal expenses; and the amount may be reduced by self­boarding, or by rigid economy.

All dues are payable quarterly in advance.
