EAST CAROLINA TEACHERS TRAINING SCHOOL From the first it lias been an established policy of the Training School to offer courses of study to help the teacher actively engaged in the work, as well as courses of study to help the inexperienced to become efficient. There is nothing offered in the school except those subjects that will help the student to become a more efficient teacher. The Training School is a professional school for teachers. The calendar year is divided into four terms, any three of which may make a school year. The Spring and Summer Terms are on the same basis as the other terms. This means that the entire school plant is in full operation in the summer just as it is from September to June, and every opportunity is given to those students who attend the Summer Term that the school is able to offer at any other term. ADDED EQUIPMENT. Dormitory. — We have just completed a new thirty-room dormi- tory, giving us a total dormitory capacity of two hundred and forty. This dormitory is equipped, like the others, with every modern con- venience. Class Eooms. — An addition to the administration building is being completed and will be ready for use by the Summer Term. This ad- dition gives us a laboratory, domestic science room, four class rooms, a stock room, five practice rooms for instrumental music, and a school post-office. Model School. — This building is nearing completion and is to be what its name implies, a real Model School. It has at present four class rooms, and four others are to be added as soon as funds are available. Power Plant. — ^A new engine room has been built and a modern lighting plant installed. A gas machine to generate gas for labora- tory purposes is to be installed this spring. SPRIIVG TEEM. March 24 to June 10. During this term students may take the Spring Term of any course offered in our catalogue. Each term is a complete unit. This en- ables us to admit students at the beginning of any term without loss to the student. In addition to the regular courses offered in the catalogue under Spring Term, the school offers the first term of One Year Course B during the Spring Term. This course is as follows: Primary Methods (6 hours), English — Reading for the Grades — (2 hours), History — United States — (4 hours), Science — Sanitation — (4 hours), Pedagogy (4 hours), Public School Music (2 hours), Draw- ing for the Grades (2 hours). EXPENSES. The total expense for this term is $41.66. See catalogue, page 32. SUMMER TERM. June 16 to August 8. COURSES OF STUDY.

EXPLANATION OF COUKSES. El and E2, taken in the order mentioned, make two-thirds of a year's work. E3 will be offered in 1915. PI, F2, P3, taken in the order mentioned, make a year's work. When three terms are com- pleted in any course, the student will be given credit for one year's work. El, E2, E3 is One Year Course A in catalogue, page 21. PI, P2, F3 is One Year Course B in catalogue, pages 21 and 22. A Course prepares for B work. B Course prepares for C work. C Course prepares for D work. When D is completed the student will be given the school's di- ploma. Students who have done work equivalent to a four years high school course, except in foreign languages, should take C work. Students without high school scholarship but with some teaching experience, should take E work. Students who wish to become pri- mary teachers should take Fl work. Students without high school scholarship and without teaching experience should select one of the P courses. If you do not find in the courses offered just what you need, write to us and make your needs clear. If possible, we will give you what you want, for it is the purpose of this school to offer the teachers of our State those studies that will help them to become the most efficient teachers possible. The teachers of North Carolina have a right to demand the best there is, and this school intends to meet that demand. We will do for you all that the funds at our disposal will permit. In filling in your application, &e sure to designate what course you wish to take. Write the name of the course after the question, "Which course or group do you wish to take?" The names of the courses offered are: Al, Bl, CI, Dl, El, E2, Fl, P2, and P3. INFIEMAEY. The school infirmary is kept open for the Summer Term just as it is for any otlier term. A small medical and infirmary fee is charged. This fee covers all expenses for medical attention, including the services of the school physician, the services of the nurse, and the use of the infirmary, but does not include the cost of filling pre- scriptions. BOOKS. The school will furnish textbooks to all who attend the Summer Term. For this the small fee of $1.50 is charged. Students may furnish their own books and not pay the book fee. It will be economy, however, to rent the books. The school will sell you books at cost. LIBRARY. The school has a good pedagogical library of 1,850 volumes, and many magazines and newspapers. EXPENSES. Registration fee $2.50 Book fee 1.50 Medical and infirmary fee 1.00 Board, room, light, and laundry 25.00 Total for two months $30.00 These expenses apply only to those students living in the dormi- tories. All others pay only the registration fee and the book fee. There will be no reduction in the -fees. Board, room, light and laun- dry, $12.50 for four weeks, may be paid by the month. Each student who lives in the dormitories is expected to bring for her own use the following articles: Two pairs of sheets, one pair of blankets, two counterpanes (only single beds are used), two pillow cases, six towels, six table napkins. Students who wish to spend eight weeks will be given rooms in the dormitories in preference to shorter term students. Rooms will not be reserved in the dormitories longer than June 19th, and then only upon request. Students who attend the Summer Term will not be required to at- tend a county institute. EDUCATIONAL ADMINISTRATION AND SUPERVISION. If our State is ever to have an efficient system of public education, it is necessary to develop a corps of competent supervisors. Normal school training alone will fall short of its purpose unless the young teacher finds employment under a competent supervisor. All of the training and directing necessary for efficient work in the class room can not be done in the school that trains for teaching. Wise super- vision is essential for a healthy development of educational efficiency. Many of our school superintendents and high school principals, real- izing this, spend a part of their summer months in the study of their problems in institutions that offer courses in administration and supervision. To reduce the cost to those who now go out of the State for such study, and to give an opportunity to others for the study of their problems, the Training School offers a four weeks course in Educational Administration and Supervision, intended especially to meet the needs of high school principals, county super- intendents, and city superintendents in North Carolina. A folder giving a detailed account of this course will be issued in March. For further information, address Robert H. Weight, President. East Carolina Teachers Training School GREENVILLE, N. C.
