Professor Edward Carroll Moore, of the Department of Education, has accepted the appointment as president of the Los Angeles Normal School, to take effect on August 1. Professor Moore will complete the academic year at the University and expects to leave for California some time in the early part of the summer. The Los Angeles Normal School, with an enrolment of 1,600, has become a school of considerable influence, and Professor Moore accepted the new position under instructions to develop the normal school into a teachers' college.
Professor Moore is well known on the Pacific Coast, having been for four years superintendent of schools of Los Angeles. He left there in 1910 to accept the position of professor of education at Yale and three years later he came to Cambridge to occupy a similar chair. He received the degree of Master of Arts from Columbia in 1896, and of Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Chicago in 1898.
