Wilson Director of Summer Term General Information The East Carolina Teachers Training School was estab- lished by Act of the General Assembly, ratified the 8th day of March, 1907. The General Assembly of 1911 rechartered the school. The following is the charter: A BILL TO BE ENTITLED AN ACT TO CHARTER THE EAST CAROLINA TEACHERS TRAINING SCHOOL. The General Assembly of North Carolina do enact: Section 1. That the trustees of the East Carolina Teachers Train- ing School, established by an act of the General Assembly of North Carolina of one thousand nine hundred and seven, and located at Greenville, North Carolina, shall be and are hereby constituted a body corporate by and under the name and style of "The Board of Trustees of the East Carolina Teachers Training School," and by that name may sue and be sued, make contracts, acquire real and personal property by gift, purchase or devise, and exercise such other rights and privileges as are incident to corporations of like character as are necessary for the proper administration of said school. Sec. 2. That said board of trustees shall be composed of nine per- sons, together with the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, as chairman ex officio, said trustees to be appointed by the State Board of Education: Provided, that two members of said board shall be from the First Congressional District, two from the Second, two from the Third, two from the Fourth, and one from the Sixth, whose term of office shall be six years. That the State Board of Education, upon the expiration of the term of office of any member of the board of trustees, shall appoint his successor for the full term of six years. Vacancies occurring by death or resignation of any member of this board shall be filled by appointment of the State Board of Education for the unexpired term. All trustees shall take oath to perform faithfully their duties, and shall hold office until their successors have been duly appointed and qualified. Sec. 3. That the said school shall be maintained by the State for the purpose of giving to young white men and women such edu- cation and training as shall fit and qualify them to teach in the public schools of North Carolina. 10 East Carolina Teachers Training School. Sec. 4. That the board of trustees shall have power to prescribe the course of study and shall lay special emphasis on those sub- jects taught in the public schools of the State and on the art and science of teaching. Sec. 5. That tuition in said school shall be free to those who signify their intention to teach, for such time and upon such condi- tions as may be prescribed by the board of trustees; and the board of trustees, upon the recommendation of the faculty, shall give those students in said school who have completed the prescribed course of study, a diploma of graduation; and they may upon the recommenda- tion of the faculty grant certificates of proficiency for the comple- tion of special courses. Sec. 6. That when, in the judgment of the board of trustees, the best interest of the school will be promoted thereby the board may decline to admit young men into the rooms of the dormitories. Sec. 7. That all rights and titles heretofore acquired in any way for the use and benefit of said Training School shall vest and remain in the said board of trustees as herein incorporated. Sec. 8. That the trustees shall report biennially to the Governor, before the meeting of each General Assembly, the operation and con- dition of said school. Sec 9. That this act shall be in force from and after its ratifica- tion. Ratified this the 8th day of March, A.D. 1911. LOCATION The school is located in the town of Greenville, North Carolina, on a tract of fifty acres of land. The site is well-nigh ideal. Part of the land is covered with a growth of native trees and lends itself beautifully to the establishment of a school park. HISTORY July 2, 1908, ground was first broken. The following build- ings have been erected : East Dormitory, West Dormitory, Ad- ministration Building, Kitchen and Dining Hall, Laundry and Power Plant, Infirmary, and President's Residence. In addi- tion to these buildings the town of Greenville has built a hand- some Model School on the Training School grounds. East Carolina Teachers Training School. 11 October 5, 1909, the school opened its doors for students. Since that date 2,450 students have been enrolled, as follows: Regular School Year. Slimmer.

Not counting any student's name twice in twelve months, the total net enrollment is 2,938. AIM As is seen in the act of the General Assembly, Section 3, the object of the State in establishing and maintaining the school is to give "to young white men and women such edu- cation and training as shall fit and qualify them to teach in the public 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. Such 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 schoolroom. 12 East Carolina Teachers Training School. 5. A knowledge of the methods of organizing and manag- ing schools. 6. A knowledge of the school law of the State. In brief, this institution aims to prepare teachers both theoretically and practically for teaching the public schools of North Carolina. 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 occa- sion for arbitrary and iron-clad rules. Each student should attend promptly and faithfully to every duty and have due consideration and regard for the rights and privileges of others. No 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 dispo- sition to conform to high standards he can hardly be con- sidered good material for a teacher; and if he is found unre- sponsive 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 have been wholly satisfactory. In the spirit of the institution is found the discipline of the school. DORMITORIES AND ROOMS The school is equipped with dormitory space for two hun- dred and forty students. Each dormitory room is pro- vided with two single iron beds, with springs, mattresses and pillows, two chairs, a table, washstand, bureau and ward- robe — all the necessary furniture for comfortable living. There is a central heating and lighting plant that pro- vides steam heat and electric lights for all the buildings. A East Carolina Teachers Training School. 13 modern system of ventilation is installed. The plumbing, draining and all those things necessary for good sanitary con- ditions are of the best type procurable. The school gets its water from the town of Greenville. The town owns its own waterworks and has the water examined frequently, thus in- suring 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. The health conditions in this school, from the first, have been entirely satisfactory. During the six years of the school's ex- istence there has never been a death nor an epidemic. CULINARY DEPARTMENT The school dining room is perhaps the most attractive hall in the institution. The equipment in the kitchen is modern in every sense. For the preservation of meats, vegetables and other foodstuffs, the school has established a refrigerating plant of the best type. The matron is a trained dietitian and each menu is made out with much care — the object being to pro- vide for the student body the most wholesome food and to see that this food is prepared in the best way possible. MEDICAL 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 are modern. ADMINISTRATION BUILDING In the Administration Building are to be found the school offices, Library, Chemical and Physical Laboratory, Biology Laboratory, fifteen recitation rooms, nine music rooms, a stock room, post office, cooking and sewing laboratories and the Assembly Hall. Each room is well equipped and ventilated. The Assembly Hall has a seating capacity of eight hundred. Here the devotional exercises are held daily. 14 East Carolina Teachers Training School. DEMONSTRATION CABIN A small house on the school property has heen converted into a demonstration cottage, providing an attractive kitchen and dining room for the cooking classes, where small groups of stu- dents prepare and serve meals and entertain simply under home conditions. This building is not only useful to us, but is an object lesson showing what may be accomplished for this purpose at a modest cost. LAUNDRY 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. STUDENT'S OUTFIT Each student is expected to bring for his own use the fol- lowing articles : Two pairs of sheets, one pair of blankets, two white counterpanes, two pillow cases, six towels, six table nap- kins, a spoon and a glass. Only single beds are used. Al l articles to be sent to the laundry should be plainly marked with indelible ink. ORGANIZATIONS The attitude of the school toward organizations is to en- courage those that are intended to preserve health, develop character and the spirit of democracy. Athletics. The students are provided with a basket ball ground and six tennis courts. They are encouraged to take a sufficient amount of outdoor exercise to insure good health. For this purpose, walks have been laid off in the park and each student is requested to spend at least one hour a day in the open air. East Carolina Teachers Training School. 15 Tennis and basket ball clubs have been organized by the students, and although no games have been played with out- side institutions yet much good has been derived through the friendly contests held on the campus. These sports are encouraged not only for the physical training that is gained through them, but for the contributions which they make toward character-building. On the athletic field the student gains the power of self-control — a most valuable asset to every person who expects to become a teacher. Literary Societies. One of the chief factors in the development of both the social and educational life of the student may be found in the Literary Societies. The Edgar Allan Poe and the Lanier Societies, established in 1910, have done much toward uni- fying the student body and encouraging school spirit. The chief purposes of these societies are to encourage social inter- course among the students, to put into practice the knowledge gained in the classrooms, through oral and written discussions, and to attain proficiency in parliamentary usage. Every stu- dent is expected to join and take an active part in one of these societies. Young Women's Christian Association. The religious interests of the School are centered in the Young Women's Christian Association. This association was organized in 1909, since which time it has done very effective work in promoting high ideals among the students. All stu- dents are urged to take an active part in this phase of the school's work. Regular devotional meetings are held and sev- eral different courses in Bible and mission study are given. Every year this association sends delegates to the Southern Student Conferences, held at Blue Ridge, North Carolina, where methods are studied for the better prosecution of the ensuing year's work. 16 East Carolina Teachers Training School. STUDENT LOAN FUND In appreciation of what the Training School has done for them, and realizing the importance of such a donation, the graduating classes and the students of the Summer Term of 1912 have left with the school voluntary contributions to be lent to needy students. This fund is not entered with the cur- rent accounts of the school, but is handled as a trust fund on its own account in a separate book. It stands as follows: The Class of 1911 $112.50 The Class of 1912 200.00 Summer Term of 1912 45.00 The Class of 1913 300.00 The Class of 1914 210.00 Summer Term of 1914 21.00 Total $888.50 For books in the library by the Summer Term of 1911 52.50 The Student Loan Fund has been the instrument of helping 16 students. The donation to the library has been spent for books and they are now in the library for reference purposes. The Pitt County Federation of Women's Clubs raised suf- ficient funds to keep one Pitt County girl in school during the school year 1914-'15. They have, also, $20 additional to be lent to some deserving student. The Sallie Southall Cotten Loan Fund of the Worth Carolina Federation of Women's Clubs has been the instrument of keeping in school two students a year since it was established in 1913. TEACHERS' REGISTRY To help the county superintendents and school trustees who de- sire to secure good teachers, and to help those students who complete 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. Requirements for Admission and Outline of Courses In order to carry out the aim of this school the following regular courses of instruction have heen arranged and are offered for 1914-1915. (a) A Professional or Normal Course. (b) An Academic Course. For Teachers of Rural Schools: (c) One Year Course A. (d) One Year Course B. For Graduates of The Training School: (e) One Year Course G. For Those Holding a Certificate from (c) or (d): (f ) One Year Course H. PROFESSIONAL COURSE The Professional Course requires the maturity and schol- arship equivalent to that attained by the best graduates of a four years State High School, and the course suggested below demands these requirements. This course is open only to those students who have had work equivalent to that offered by a four years State High School, in all subjects except foreign languages. To enter the Professional Course a student must hold a certificate from a State High School in North Carolina, offer- ing a four years course, or from a private or graded school giving equivalent preparation, or pass an examination on a course equivalent to that pursued in such schools, or have completed the Academic Course offered in this School.

East Carolina Teachers Training School. 19 THE ACADEMIC COCESE There are many students in North Carolina who do not have access to a good high school, but who desire to become teachers. To meet the needs of such students this school has provided a two-year Academic Course. To enter this course a student must hold a certificate showing that he has success- fully completed the work of the first year of a State high school or the equivalent, or pass an examination upon a course equivalent to that.

ONE-TEAK COURSES FOR TEACHERS OF RURAL SCHOOLS One-Tear Course A Realizing that many teachers desire to make a more thorough study of the subjects taught in the public schools of Worth Carolina and desire to get a correct idea of the methods which have proved most successful in teaching those subjects and the principles which underlie them, the school offers a one-year's course, open to those who hold a first or second grade certificate, to be known as "One Year Course A." To this course only a limited number of students will be ad- mitted.

Requirements for Admission. — The applicant must be seventeen years of age, and must signify his intention to teach the following school year.
