Abstract:
Among East Carolina Teacher Training School’s early accomplishments and famous firsts was offering a full academic year that included the summer. This option, implemented in 1912 and institutionalized in 1922, made it possible for students to complete a Bachelor’s degree in three years. It was a rare offering for a school in the South during this decade.
