NEBRASKA ST ATE TEACHERS COLLEGE Peru,, Nebraska

EXTENSION COURSES The purpose o f Extension courses, whether Correspondence or Study Center, is to extend the services of the State Teachers College to every properly qualified person who cannot attend an educational instit ution for the t ime being, but who wishes to pursue systematic study under competent direction and for college credit with a view of attending college later.

In addition to its courses in residence, one of t h e most valuable services th at the Teachers College can render is an opportunity for teachers in service to continue t heir education and to receive aid and inspiration in their daily work. Teachers are urged to avail themselves of every such advantage t hat this state institution, which is their I nstitution, has to offer them.

Not more than one-fourth of a ny curriculum leading to a degree, a diploma, or a certificate shall be taken in extension classes or by correspondence: and not to exceed one-half of this amount, (one-eigh th) sh a ll be taken by correspondence. No crmrses are offered in exten sion which are not a lso offered as a part of the regular r esiden ce work. Each course is offered by t h at member of the fac ulty who teaches the course in residen ce.

CORRESPONDENCE COURSES Correspondence courses aire offered not only for college credit. but also for mature students who need to earn College entrance credits.

These courses h ave a n advantage over study center courses in two respects; first, t h e individual can take what he n eed s, a n d second, he can carry the wor k forward as rapidly as h e is a ble.

Because of these two advantages, correspon dence courses have grown in favor during the past few years. Inasmuch as one eighth of the a m ount req ui red for degree, diploma, or certificate may be t a ken by correspondence, th¡s work is appealing str on gly both to graduates of t he two- year college course wh o wish to take work towa rd a deg ree while teaching, and to t h ose students wh o were compelled to teach before completing t h e two -year course.

No student, however , sh ould attempt to take a ll the work h e needs by study cen ter and corresponden ce, even if t h at were po ~ sible, as by doin g so h e loses the inspiration th at comes fron1 contact with a virile studen t body a nd a sympa thetic a nd enthusiastic fac ulty . This con tact brin gs a bout a cult ure, refin em ent. and poise that resident attendance only can give.

How Enrolled. Each st uden t must fi ll ou t an a pplica tion blank, fo und on page 15, in order t h at t h e instructor may ascertain his fit n ess to pursue wit h profit t h e course h e desires. If the student is permitted to ta ke t h e work h e wiill r ece ive word from the instructor who will commun icate directly wit h t h e studen t, giving instruction s a nd directions for t h e course.
