(general Snformatton &ct of tfje General gtesemblp The East Carolina Teachers' Training School was estab- lished by Act of the General Assembly, ratified the 8th day of March, 1907. "Section 11. That there shall be established and maintained at some suitable point in Eastern North Carolina a teachers' training school, for the training of young white men and women, under the corporate name of the East Carolina Teach- er-' Training School. "Sec. 12. That said school shall be located by the State Board of Education at such a point in Eastern North Carolina as they may deem proper, and shall be located in or near that town offering the largest financial aid, having due regard to desirability and suitability for the location of said school. "Sec. 13. That the object in establishing and maintaining said school shall be to give to young white men and women such education and training as shall fit and qualify them for teaching in the public schools of North Carolina. And the Board of Trustees hereinafter provided for, in prescribing the course of study of said school, shall lay special emphasis on those subjects taught in the public schools of the State and on the art and science of teaching. "Sec. 14. That tuition in said school shall be free to those who signify their intention to teach, for such time and upon such conditions as may be prescribed by the board of trustees ; and the board of trustees, upon the recommendation of tho faculty, shall give those students in said school who have com- pleted the required course a certificate of proficiency in the work done." llocatton The school is located in the town of Greenville, North Caro- lina on a tract of forty-seven and one-half acres of land. The 10 East Carolina Teacher*' Training School. site is well-nigh ideal. Part of the land is covered with a growth of native trees and lends itself beautifully to the estab- lishment of a school park. ^tstorp July 2, 1908 ground was first broken. The following build- ings have been erected : Boys' Dormitory, Girls' Dormitory, Ad- ministration Building, Kitchen and Dining Hall, Laundry and Power Plant, and Infirmary. October 5, 1909, the school opened its doors for students. During this year four hundred and sixty-one students have been enrolled. As is seen in the act of the General Assembly, Section 13, the object of the State in establishing and maintaining the school is "to give to young white men and women such education ami training as shall fit and qualify them for teaching in the pub- lic schools of North Carolina." This is a professional school. Its aim is to teach its stu- dents not only subject matter, but also the processes by which the learning-mind acquires knowledge. Its purpose is to give the students: 1. Such knowledge of the studies taught in the public schools as a teacher must have in order to teach them properly. 2. A knowledge of other studies that are so related to the branches taught in the public schools as will give a proper understanding of the public school branches. 3. A knowledge of the mental and physical powers of the child and their methods of development. 4. A knowledge of the principles of education and methods of teaching, and their application in the actual work of the school room. 5. A knowledge of the methods of organizing and managing schools. 6. A knowledge of the school laAv of the State. In brief, this institution aims to prepare teachers both theoretically and practically for teaching the public schools of North Carolina. East Carolina Teachers' Training School. 11 Discipline In conducting a school for young men and women who are about to assume the responsibilities of so serious and dignified a profession as teaching, there should be no occasion for arbi- trary and iron-clad rules. Each student should attend promptly and faithfully to every duty and have due consid- eration and regard for the rights and privileges of others. Xo rules are made by the school authorities except those necessary to govern routine work, but if the pupil is found to be falling off in his studies, neglecting his duties or exerting an unwholesome influence, prompt steps are taken for his amendment. If a pupil does not show some disposition to con- form to high standards he can hardly be considered good ma- terial for a teacher; and, if he is found unresponsive to patient endeavors to bring him into the proper attitude to his duties, he is requested to resign his place in the school. Every effort is made to lead the students to choose the right, and the results for the past year have been wholly satisfactory. In the spirit of the institution is found the discipline of the school. dormitories; ano &ooms The school is equipped with dormitory space for two hun- dred and twenty-four students. Each dormitory room is pro- vided with two single iron beds, with springs, mattresses and pillows, two chairs, a table, washstand, bureau and wardrobe — all the necessary furniture for comfortable living. There is a central heating and lighting plant that provides steam heal and electric lights for all the buildings. A modern system of ventilation is installed. The plumbing, draining and all those things necessary for good sanitary conditions are of the best type procurable. The school gets its water from the town of Greenville. The town owns ita own waterworks and has the water examined frequently, thus insuring its purity. In short, the home life of each student is made as comfortable as can be, and every possible precaution for health is taken. 12 East Carolina Teachers' Training School. During the past year the general health of the student body has been entirely satisfactory. Culinary department The school dining room is perhaps the prettiest hall in the institution. The equipment in the kitchen is modern in every sense. For the preservation of meats, vegetables and other food-stuffs, the school has established a refrigerating plant of the best type. A graduate of Drexel Institute has charge of the Culinary Department — the object of the school being to provide for its student body the most wholesome food and to see that this food is prepared in the best way possible. jfflebtcal attention The school physician pays daily visits to the institution. A resident nurse is in charge of the infirmary. This building is equipped with all the necessary furniture. Heating, lighting, plumbing and ventilation modern. &bministration iSuilbing In the Administration Building are to be found the school offices, Library, Chemical Laboratory, ten recitation rooms, four music rooms, and the Assembly Hall. Each room is well equipped and ventilated. The Assembly Hall has a seating ca- pacity of eight hundred. Here the devotional exercises are held daily. launbrp The laundry is equipped with all the necessary machinery for efficient laundry work. The equipment here, as in the other buildings, is of the best possible type. Athletics The students are provided with a ball ground and four tennis courts. They are encouraged to take a sufficient amount of outdoor exercise to insure good health. For this purpose, walks will be laid off in the park and each student is requested to spend at least one hour each day in the open air. East Carolina Teachers' Training School. 13 g>tubents' Outfit Each student is expected to bring for his own use the follow- ing articles : Two pairs of sheets, one pair blankets, two white counterpanes, two pillow cases, six towels, six table napkins, a spoon and a glass. Only single beds are used. All articles to be sent to the Laundry should be plainly marked with indelible ink. <£rgam?aticmg The attitude of the school toward organizations is to encour- age those that are intended to preserve health, develop charac- ter and the spirit of democracy. Athletic Association Officers.— J. L. Rawles, Manager; E. D. Dodd, Captain. The young men organized a baseball club and played sev- eral games during the year, making for the school a very satis- factory record. 3Tarbis iflemorial Uiterarp g>ocietP Officers.— S. F. Linton, President; L. A. Harper, Secretary- Treasurer. The Jarvia Memorial Literary Society was organized by the young men of the school to encourage public speaking and de- bate. Its work for the past year has been most satisfactory. goung Somen's Christian Association Officers.— Pattie S. Dowell, President; Vada Highsmith; Vice-President; Virginia Dail, Secretary; Louise Fleming, Treasurer. The young women of the school organized themselves into a Young Women's Christian Association and held devotional ex- ercises daily. This association has done a greal work in fos- tering the religious spirit of the school. 14 East <'l in, i Teachers 3 Training School. GTeacfjer*' l&egtsitrp To help county superintendents and school trustees who de- sire to secure good teachers and to help those students who com- plete the course, to secure desirable positions, the school will recommend deserving young men and women for positions. It is the purpose of the school in this matter to recommend only those students who have the scholarship and personality necessary to meet the demands of the given position. East Carolina Teachers' Training School. 15 JUgutrements for gfomtstfton preparatory Course There are many students in North Carolina who do not have access to a good high school, but who desire to become teachers. Such students will be admitted to the Preparatory Course, pro- vided, they have successfully completed the first year's work of the high school, or its equivalent. Admission to this course is either by certificate or by exam- ination. professional Course This course is open only to those students who have success- fully completed work equivalent to that prescribed by an ac- credited high school. Admission to this course is either by certificate or by examination. (Bnt Bear Course for Ceacfters of &ural Schools Realizing that many teachers desire to make a more thor- ough study of the subjects of the public school branches of North Carolina, the school offers a one year's course open to those who hold a first or second grade certificate. To this course only a limited number of students will be admitted, and only those who hold a first or second grade certificate from a county superintendent. For admission to either of the above courses the student must, be sixteen years of age. 16 East Carolina Teachers' Training School.

The work of the first and second years is intended as a basis upon which the two years of professional training shall rest. In the Junior and Senior years the work is given with the fol- lowing ends in view : To cultivate the love of general literature for its own sake;, to give the pupil-teachers the right attitude toward English teaching; to dignify and magnify the office of English in the common schools, and to show that teachers can bring life and interest to English speaking children in the study of their mother tongue. Jfflathemattcs Work is offered in Arithmetic; Algebra is completed; Busi- ness Arithmetic and Book-keeping, completed; Geometry, Plane and Solid. It is the purpose of this course to give the students a thor- ough mastery of the principles of Arithmetic, Algebra and Geometry. Speed, accuracy and thoroughness are insisted upon. The power of mental confidence is inculcated by the constant use of checks. Special emphasis is also laid on how to teach mathematics, how to make it more attractive to the average student. The history and development of the subject of Arithmetic are taken up. In short, the purpose of this course is to give ;i thorough grounding in the principles of Mathe- matics with the view of making the teacher-pupil a more effi- cient instructor in this subject. East Carolina Teachers' Training School. 19 The object of this course is to acquaint the students with the leading facts of Ancient History, Mediaeval and Modern European History, and to give them a thorough grounding in the essentials of American History and the History of North Carolina. The foundation of modern civilization rests upon the civili- zations of the past The aim of this course, therefore, is to get so acquainted with Ancient and Mediaeval History that the student can approach with intelligence Modern History, both European and American. One year is offered in Ancient, one year in Mediaeval and Modern European History. Xot only the acquisition of the leading facts of History is insisted upon. hut such acquisition of these facts as will enable the student to become an efficient teacher of the subject. Ctutcg The course in Civics is intended to give the essential forms of government now found among civilized nations with especial emphasis upon the government of our own nation and slate. Uatin Four years work in Latin is offered. This course is intended to give the students a thorough grounding in the essentials of Latin Grammar, an extensive vocabulary, accuracy in translat- ing Latin into English and English into Latin. The idioms of the two languages are carefully compared and attention is given to the derivation of English words from the Latin. Caesar's Gallic War, Cicero's Orations and Letters, and Virgil's .Kneid are studied. Note. If the student desires to take the entire course in Latin it will be necessary to spend an extra year in school. '20 East Carolina Teachers' Training School. Science It is the one purpose of our science courses to train for in- telligent living and intelligent service. This involves a thorough knowledge of the fundamental principles of our several subjects of study, a knowledge of the facts which make these principles clear, and a knowledge of the science facts necessary for daily life. Inasmuch as the goal of instruction is not reached until the individual has acquired the power to use the knowledge he has gained, power to work independently of the teacher, power to think accurately and clearly, these features are stressed and opportunity is constantly offered to apply the knowledge gained to the practical and everyday affairs of life. Our science courses lead up to, prepare for and culminate in the subjects most closely related to the lives of the people of North Carolina — (a) Geography — A study of the earth in its relations to life, its control over life and the way life responds to the various geographic factors ; and the way man adjusts himself to and utilizes the factors of his environment best to meet his needs. (b) Physiology and Hygiene — A study of the human mechanism to the end that it may receive more intelligent care and attention and result in healthier, happier and more ef- ficient living. (c) Agriculture — To assist us in solving the problem — "Who can raise the best plant or animal?" and bring to the problem and its solution, common sense, good judgment, and a knowl- edge of the principles which underlie efficient agriculture — the greatest and most important occupation of man — so as to dignify it and bring it up to the rightful place it should bold boI only in the minds of those who engage in this occupa- tion, but in the minds of all others. ( <1 ) Home Economies — How to improve the conditions in and about our home; to discover those factors that make for a more sanitary and a more hygienic mode of living, and that in- fluence the physical, mental, moral and aesthetic nature of man. East Carolina Teachers' Training School. 21 This involves the questions of sanitation, food and its proper preparation, home decoration and dress. $ebagogp Pedagogy is an essential department of a Teachers' Train- ing School. The instruction in this department deals with the fundamental principles of education; the relation of the dif- ferent branches of knowledge to one another and to the mind, and the method by which the human powers may be trained, and the mind stored with knowledge. It deals with the theory and the practice of teaching. The Department of Pedagogy in this school devotes some time to a study of the fundamental laws of mind that the students may utilize their knoAvledge of these mental activities in their own study. This includes within its scope a study of Child Development and How to Teach Children to Study. The Teaching Process is emphasized with the aim of en- abling the students to understand and make a practical applica- tion of the principles involved in good teaching and the meth- ods employed to realize the goal in the process of education. IJrimarp ffienjobs This course will cover the work of the first three grades and will consist of lectures, discussions and observations of work done with a class of young children. The aim of the course is to get a correct idea of the methods which have been most suc- cessful in teaching reading, language, number work. etc. m the lower grades. sfecftool Management It is the purpose of this course to discuss the various prob- lems confronting the teacher in the organization, the conduct. and the management of the school. It proposes in addition *o the treatment of methods and their skillful use, to emphasize the practical and vital topics in school management in such manner that it may aid the teachers to fill that wider function of training pupils for the duties, responsibilities and obligations 22 East Carolina Teachers' Training School. of life. It is made as practical as possible in order to meet the conditions and needs of the schools of to-day. Bratotng The courses in drawing are planned to give all students who wish to teach Primary and Grammar grades a practical knowl- edge of drawing. The purpose is to train the mind, the eye and the hand to work together — to cultivate habits of thought and observation and to create an appreciation of the beautiful. The courses are adapted to the needs of the student-teacher both as a learner of the principles of drawing and as a pros- pective teacher of the subject. Jlusrtc Three courses in music are offered. public g>cfjool JWustc The object of this course is to prepare teachers to conduct the singing in their schools, and to instruct them in the funda- mental principles of music. Public school music as presented to-day recognizes the fact that its great value lies in singing with interest and expression. The foundation of musical knowledge is laid through the acquisition of a repertoire of beautiful songs. Attention is given to technique and to ex- pression ; the elements of music being studied through the me- dium of songs. Instrumental f-Nusic Instrumental instruction on the piano is offered. The ob- ject of this course is thoroughly to ground the student in the fundamental principles of instrumental music. Voice Special lessons in voice are offered. Here the emphasis is laid both on the side of technique and expressional interpre- tation.

Realizing that many teachers engaged in the work wish to study after their schools close that they may better equip them- selves for their profession; also realizing that the schools of the counties do not close at the same time, the Training School, to meel these conditions for the past year offered two courses of instruction. The results of this year's work were so satisfactory thai the Training School course for teachers has become a permanent part of the school's work. 40 East Carolina Teachers' Training School. Courses of g>tuop For the past year the following courses were offered: Course A — March 15th to July 30th. English — Grammar, Composition and Literature; Mathemat- ics — Arithmetic; Pedagogy — Hamilton's The Recitation; His- tory — United States and North Carolina; Civil Government, Geography, School Management, Lectures on School Organiza- tion and Management. Course B— May 24th to July 30th. Course B same as course A for the first term. Those who entered in May were allowed to select twenty-five hours of work from those subjects beginning at that time in either Course A or Course B. The object of this arrangement was to enable the teacher to study those subjects he needed most. The aim of these courses was better to equip the teacher for his work ; to enable him thoroughly to master the contents of the texts studied and to acquire that skill necessary to impart that knowledge to his classes. The text-books studied were those taught in the public schools. Instrumental music was offered to those who desired to take that study. The work in these courses was of such a nature that those students who continued through to the end of the term and took the examinations were given credit for the work done, provided they made satisfactory grades. It is the aim of the school to offer a course next year that will be a continuation of the work done during the past spring and summer, so that those teachers who have attended either the spring or the summer course this year, may continue their Btudies if they desire.

Cast Carolina CeacfjersT draining ^>Cf)OOl The East Carolina Teachers' Training- School was estab- lished by Act of the General Assembly of 1907. This Act pro- vided "'that said school shall be located by the State Board of Education at such a point in eastern North Carolina as they may deem proper, and shall be located in or near that town offer- ing the largest financial aid, having due regard to desirability and suitability for the location of said school." The State Board of Education selected Greenville, and here on a tract of forty-seven acres, six beautiful buildings have been erected. These buildings are modern in every particular — heating, light- ing, ventilation and sanitation. Each room in the dormitories has a closet and is furnished with two single iron bedsteads with good springs, the best grade of felt mattresses, pillows, bureau, washstand. table and chairs — all the furniture neces- sary for comfortable living. The management of the school is vested in a Board of Trustees, consisting of nine members appointed by the State Board of Education, with the State Superintendent of Public Instruction as chairman, ex officio. "Two members of the said board shall be selected from the First Congressional District, two from the Second, two from the Third, two from the Fourth, and one from the Sixth."* *Aet of the General Assembly. 1907. 6 Bast Carolina Teachers' Training School. $urposie The Act establishing the institution gives its purpose in the following words: "The object in establishing and maintain- ing said school shall be to give to young white men and wo- men such education and training as shall fit and qualify them for teaching in the public schools of North Carolina. * * * The course of study of said school shall lay special emphasis on the subjects taught in the public schools of the State, and on the art and science of teaching." This is to be a Normal School. But realizing that normal work can not be effective until the foundation is well made, this school will give to its students a good rudimentary education as well as pedagogical training. &egutrements; for gfomueteton For 1909- 19 10, any student who wishes to become a teacher and has successfully completed the first year's work of the high school course, as prescribed by the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, may be admitted.* If a student has access to a good high school, we advise him to remain in the local school until he completes the course, then come to this school for his professional training. Students more advanced than the first-year high school work will be given credit for the work they have done. expense* for tfje §9ear Board in the dormitories $80.00 Laundry 12.00 For the use of text-books 5.00 Light and heat 8.00 Medical fee 3.00 Dormitory fee 2.00 Total cost $1 10.00 Note. — First year work will be ottered in science and in a foreign language.
