FACULTY OF EDUCATION STARTS NEW PROGRAM

In recognition of an urgent need for cooperation instead of competition between the Faculty of Arts and Sciences and the Faculty of Education, a new joint program, designed to present a unified course of instruction for the training of teachers for secondary schools has been put into effect for the first time this year. Sixty-three candidates are enrolled for the new degree.

According to the new plan, which presents a degree of Master of Arts in Teaching, the School of Education will confine itself to the preparation of specialists in the education service. The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences recognizes this new degree as the appropriate one for prospective teachers.

General and specific examinations form the requisite for the new degree instead of requirements on a basis of credit for courses.
