This arrangement is made for the convenience of a large number of students who find it inconvenient, if not impossible, to attend the full quarter, but who find it necessary or profitable to use a portion of the summer for further study. Most classes meet five times a week in order to complete a three hour course during each term. Instruction periods are sixty minutes long, exclusive of the change period between classes. Students will be permitted to carry a maximum of three full courses each term for a total credit of nine quarter hours per term (six semester hours). A tentative list of the courses to be offered during the summer sessions is found in this bulletin but any course listed in the general catalogue will be offered during either term of summer school provided there is sufficient demand for it. If there is not sufficient demand for any course listed in this bulletin it will be dropped and another course will be offered in its stead. Practice teaching in the elementary grades will be offered during the first term only. All departments of the college will be in operation during the summer sessions. STUDY PROGRAM AND CREDITS The usual regulations concerning a student's program of studies will apply during the summer sessions, but the regulations are interpreted for two six weeks sessions instead of for an unbroken quarter. Published four times each year, March, May, August, and December. Entered as second class matter March 16, 193 6, at Greenville, N, C, under the Act of Congress of August 24, 1912. (3) A student may schedule a maximum of nine quarter hours per term; with special permission from the committee on classifi- cation he may schedule ten quarter hours, but under no circum- stances may a student schedule more than ten quarter hours per term. To convert quarter hour credits into equivalent semester hour credits multiply by two-thirds, eg. 9 (quarter hours) multiplied by 2 /s equals 6 (semester hours) . To convert semester hour credits into equivalent quarter hour credits, multiply by 1.5 or 3/2 eg. 12 (semester hours) multiplied by li/2 equals 18 (quarter hours). Teachers' certificates may be renewed in a six weeks term; credits may be earned toward a higher certificate, and toward graduation. No credit will be given for a course in which a student misses more than six class recitations. Students may register not later than one week after the opening of either summer session. Students desiring transcripts checked or college credits eval- uated before making up their summer term schedules should submit transcripts and request the check at least one month before the session opens. Credits earned during the summer sessions are sent to the State Department of Certification at Raleigh promptly at the close of the summer session, provided record cards furnished for this purpose have been filled out carefully by the student and then left with the Registrar of the college during the session. Each student should register if possible on the first day of the term. Late registration is a serious hindrance to the best work and there is a fee of $1.00 charged late entrants. RECREATION AND ENTERTAINMENT The summer school at East Carolina Teachers College offers abundant opportunities for wholesome recreation to its students. Four tennis courts, a municipal swimming pool adjacent to the campus, a baseball field, a good volleyball court, the weekly motion picture show in the college auditorium, and the regular social hour each evening in the Robert H. Wright Building, are some of the attractions available. A series of attractive entertainments secured from a national lyceum bureau will be offered during each term of the summer school, in addition to the usual picnics, barbecue lunches, water- melon cuttings, etc., which are provided for summer school students. (4) pip hill lilll|lB!iai«t FEES AND EXPENSES College fees during the summer sessions are the same as for other quarters, viz. : 1st. Term 2nd. Term Total Dormitory student $46.75 $46.75 $93.50 Day student 16.75 16.75 33.50 Late registration fee 1.00 1.00 2.00 Out-of-state fee 5.00 5.00 10.00 Observation in Training School 5.00 5.00 The tuition fee of $10.00 per term is included in the charges given above. Rooms in men's dormitory will be available during the sum- mer sessions. Students who, for any reason, withdraw from the college before the end of any quarter will have a proportionate part of the amount paid for board refunded. Under no circumstances will other fees be refunded. Refund will be from the date of official withdrawal from college. ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS All students who expect to enter college here for the first time must submit their high school credits before registering. Grad- uates of accredited high schools are admitted without examina- tion, if their credentials include a minimum of 16 units of work. FORMER STUDENTS AND COLLEGE DEGREES Former students of East Carolina Teachers College who desire to continue their work toward a degree find little difficulty in adjusting the work done on an earlier curriculum to the require- ments of present curricula. Credits earned elsewhere in standard colleges will be accepted, when properly certified provided such credits fit in with the curriculum selected by the student in East Carolina Teachers College. CERTIFICATES AND DEGREES The kind of certificate held determines the ranking, salary, and position of the teacher, as a rule. Teachers are typically ranked according to the length of their professional training. There is no room in the profession for the poorly trained teacher. The demand is growing for elementary school teachers who hold degrees on four years of college work. Superintendents and other employing officials in the public schools are demanding the (6) class A certificate, and it is becoming more and more difficult for those holding the class B certificate to secure a teaching position. The primary and the grammar class B certificates may be secured at the present time by securing the equivalent of three years of standard college work which must include certain specific subjects that are required by the Department of Certification. A satisfactory standard of proficiency in spelling and penman- ship must be met before a certificate to teach in the elementary school will be issued by the State Department of Certification. PRINCIPAL'S CERTIFICATE There is a growing demand for teachers who hold a principal's certificate, hence special attention is called to the offering of courses in the department of Administration and Supervision. These courses are provided for the benefit of those students in the summer sessions who desire to qualify for the supervisor's certificate or for the elementary principal's certificate. PRIMARY AND GRAMMAR CLASS A CERTIFICATES After September 1, 1939 the State Department of Certification will require the satisfactory completion of the requirements for a degree from a standard college and the specific certificate re- quirements as qualifications for the class A certificate. This means that the department will not issue the class A certificate merely on the earning of a minimum of 120 semester hours, including specific subject requirements for the certificate after September 1, 1939, but will require the completion of college graduation requirements. Teachers who are expecting changes in their certificates in 1939 as a result of their summer school work, should wait four weeks before making any inquiry of the State Department of Public Instruction at Raleigh. When a certificate is to be raised to a higher grade it is not necessary to send the old certificate to the State Department of Certification. Reports of the summer school work go promptly from the college to the State Department of Public Instruction on a report card the student leaves with the college. Do not send the De- partment your personal report of summer school work. HOUSING FACILITIES The college has abundant space in its dormitories and dining halls for all who may attend the summer sessions, and private homes are available for those who desire to live off the campus. (7) " : -« ■' "' ■- '.¥1:;,:"" ' ■■■■" ^fS •:.■'''.■' '■'''■.'- f. ; mi§ ( ,g >i -•-■..- .: '■■ : ' Day students may secure board in the college dining hall at the rate of $45.00 per quarter, payable in advance. Part time boarding is not permitted in the college dining hall. Women students who do not live in their own homes while attending the college are required to live in the college dormi- tories unless they have permission from the Registrar to live in a private home. Application for this permission must be made on a form provided by the college and it must be signed by a parent or guardian of minors. Students not living in the college dormitories should be sure to give their local address on registration forms, so they may be located quickly in case some one desires to get in touch with them. PLACEMENT BUREAU The facilities of the College Placement Bureau are available to all students and graduates of the college without charge to them. If they register with the Bureau and furnish the personal data needed, the Bureau endeavors to place them in teaching positions for which they are best fitted. DEMONSTRATION CLASSES Special demonstration classes are provided for observation in the training school. Experienced teachers may enroll for the observation alone, which carries no college credit, for a nominal fee of $1.00 per day or $5.00 for a period not exceeding two weeks. The number of persons that can be admitted for observation is limited. Persons desiring to observe in the training school must register, secure a permit and receive directions concerning the time and manner of observations. INDUSTRIAL OR MANUAL ARTS Experienced teachers will be interested in the courses offered in manual arts. The courses in wood-work are specially valuable to teachers in guiding pupils in projects involving elementary con- struction and the use of simple tools. SELF-HELP There is a limited amount of self-help available to students attending the summer sessions who must earn a portion of their college expenses. These self-help assignments are made about May 10, and students desiring such work should make application prior to that date on a form provided by the college. Only students with better than average scholarship are considered for (9) these assignments. N. Y. A. funds are not available during the summer sessions, and at present there is no assurance that they will be available next year. FACULTY Attention is called especially to the strength of the faculty retained for the summer sessions. Students who attend the summer sessions of East Carolina Teachers College are assured of a high standard of instruction and they are assured of all the benefits that ordinarily accrue to one who attends a thoroughly modern college of high standing.
