GENERAL INFORMATION

HISTORY AND PURPOSE

In 1867, the year Nebrask a became a state, the state legislature provided for the establishment of a training school for teachers, or "normal school", in P eru. At that time, only two other such institution s existed west of the Missouri River, one in Kansas and one in · Californi a.

For thirty-eight years, Pe r u was the only state normal school in Neb raska. As the population increased, however, the legislature provided for three others-one at Kearney in 1905, one at W ayne in 1910, and one at Chadron in 1911 I ~ 1921, the legislature extended the cu rricul um offered in • the normal schools from two years to four years and authorized these institutions to grant baccalaureate degrees which might be eith er the B achelor of Arts Degree in Education, the Ba chelor of Science D egree in Education, or the Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree in Educ at ion. Finally, the 1949 Legislature authorized the a ddition of a lib e r a l arts curr iculum to the programs of these . teacher training institutions a nd the privilege of granting the Bachelor of Arts Degree. At the same time the titles of the fo1,1r institutions were changed from State N orma l Schools to State T eac her s Colleges.

Thus, while the primary purpose of the N ebraska State Teachers College a t Peru is now, as it a lways has been, the prepar at ion of te ac hers fo'r the pub li c schools of N ebraska, a general liberal education as well as preprofessional general ed ucation and terminal vocational education, also, a 1·e provided by this college.

The effect of absence upon the evaluation of a student's work in any course depends upon the nature of course objectives and the method of evalution. However, it is the general policy of the college to permit students, absent for legitimate reasons, to make up the work missed, whenever this is practicable.

RESIDENT ATTENDANCE

'A mm1mum of twenty-four hours of residence credit- earned in this college is required for the issuance of a one-year diploma, and thirty hours of residence credit earned in this college are required for a two-year diploma or a degree. Twenty-four of the last thirty hours of work for a degree and twelve of the last sixteen for a two-year diploma must be earned in residence at this college

GRADeyG SYSTEM

The fo)lowing course marks or grades are employed to indicate amount and quality of student achievement:

4 Superior

3 Excellent

2 Average

1 Passing 0 Below Passing X Incomplete

W Withdrew (See page 00 for withdrawal procedure.)

A student receiving a ma rk of 4, 3, 2, or 1 is granted the number of semester hours of credit for which the course is offered, or a par.t of that number, if partial credit has been arranged for and earned. No credit is granted, if a mark of 0, X, or W is i:eceived. However, an X may be changed to a mark carrying credit, when full credit or partial credit · has been satisfactorily earned, provided such change is made by the end of the next succeeding semester after the X has been received.

SCHQLARSHIP STANDARDS

The business of a student is to learn, and the business of a college is to meet the educational needs of its students by providing an enviroment conducive to learning So long as student and college are able to perform

ACADEMIC REGULATIONS

these complementary functions satisfactorily, it is well for the partnership entered into when the student matriculates to continue; when either fails, it is advisable to end the partnership.

One indication that the right relationship does not exist between a student and the college is the accumulation on the part of the student of an excessive number of failing or near failing marks. Therefore, at the close of each semester and summer term, the registrar reports to the dean of men and dean of women the names of students having grade-averages of 1.00 or below. A committee consisting of the appropriate dean, the student's counselor, and the student himself examines the complete record of the student and makes a decision regarding his further educational plans.

In addition to employing · the above counseling procedure to guard against unproductive educational programs, the college maintains fixed minimum standards of scholarship for all the teacher-preparation curriculums and the liberal arts degree curriculum. A grade average of 2.00 is required for completion of any of the teacher preparation curriculums-the four-year curriculums that prepare for high school teaching, the two-year and four-year curriculums that prepare for elementary teaching, and the twelve-week and one-year curriculums that prepare for rural-school teaching. A grade average of 1.50 is required for completion of any liberal arts curriculum and the A.B. degree .

SCHOLASTIC HONORS .

Scholastic honors are of two types: honors and high honors

Semester Honor Roll. An honor roll is compiled at the end of each semester and summer session. To be considered for honors a student must complete all of his work and earn at least fourteen hours in a semester, seven hours in a nine-week summer session, or five hours in a six-week summer session. Students who have a• point average •of 3.2 will earn honors; those who have a point , average of 3.7 will earn high honors.

Graduation With Honors . A candidate for the Bachelor's Degree may be graduated with honors if he completes all of his work and earns at least fourteen hours each semester, seven hours each nine-week summer session, or five hours each six-week summer session. The work of the last session in attendance will not be considered in computing the point average. No student will be considered for honors who has transferred more than sixty hours from another college or university. Students who have a total point average of 3.2 may be graduated With Honors; those who have a total point .average of 3.7 may be graduated With High Honors.

PROGRAM OF INSTRUCTION CURRICULUMS

The instructional program of the college consists of seve n interrelated divisional programs- Education, Fine Arts, Health and Physical Education,Language Arts, Practical Arts, Science and Mathematics, and Social Studies-each of which contributes by its own special means to the purposes of the college , central of which is the mission of preparing teachers for the schools of Nebraska . Additional purposes served consist of providing, for those who do not wish to prepare for teaching, a general liberal education, preprofessional educ ation, or junior terminal vocational ed ucation.

To serve the above purposes most economically, the courses offered in the several college divisions are organized into cw-riculums, the term applied to a group of courses designed for one individual, or for a group of individuals having a common purpose. The curriculums offered by the college include four year professional curriculums in e lementary e ducation, secondary education, and school administration and guidance; a four-year liberal arts curriculum flexible eno ugh to satisfy a variety of interests; and a number of two-year and one-year terminal vocational curriculums and pre-professional curriculums, including two-year curriculums in elementary education and a one-year curriculum in rur a l education. To meet an emergency situation, the college offers, also, a twelve-w ee k curriculum (summer term only) in rural e ducation.

SELECTION OF A CURRICULUM

In general, the various curriculums offered by the college consist partly of general education courses and partly of specialized courses. The general education courses are those thou.ght to be needed by a ll individuals for effective living, regardless of their occupations. The specialized courses are those that prepare specifically for particular teaching positions or other occupations, or satisfy special avocational or cultural interests

At entrance, each student must choose an occupational objective or a field of principal cultural interest. This determines the curriculum that he will follow and the counselor who will guide him in his educational experiences The choice may be tentative and may be change d later, though this may result in some loss of , credit.

DEGREE MAJORS AND MINORS

In the degree curriculums, a definite program of general education is required of all students . (See page 37) However, while some variation is permitted in the general courses, the differentiation needed to care for differences in professional or cultural objectives is provided chiefly by means of major and minor course sequences.

In the case of the professional curriculums leading to ·degrees in education, each student must comJ?lete one major a nd one minor, e xcept that no minor is required for· a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Eduaation -degree. In the curriculums th a t prepare far elementary teaching, the major must be elementary education In those that prepare for secondary teaching, a core of courses in secondary education must be included in addition to the major and the minor. Frequently, it is possible and desir able for a student in a secondary education curriculum to complete one or more additional

PROGRAM OF INSTRUCTION

minors, or a second major. In any event, the combination of majors and minors should be expected to prepare the student in as many subjects as he likely will be called upon to teach in a typical position in a Nebraska high school.

In curriculums leading to the liberal arts degree (A.B.) , a major and two minors or two majors are required.

A major must include at least 24 semester hours of work, and a minor 15 semester hours. No course may be -counted twice in meeting these minimum requirements. The latter provision is necessitated by the fact that in a few cas/!S the same course is included in a m a jor and a closely related minor.

In gene ral, credits transferred from another college may be used to meet major and minor requirements , provided: (1) at least one course in each major or minor is earned in this college, and (2) a ll transferred credits are approved by the head of the sponsoring division.

Sp ecific major and minor requirements are given in the several divisional programs. In the summary presented below, the subjects in each division in which majors and minors may be earned are listed, and the number of hours in each major and minor is shown, as well as the degre e or degre es toward which each major may be applied. Except where otherwise indic ate d, the minors are applicable to all degrees. For names of degrees, see page 36.

PROGRAM OF INSTRUCT/ON

PRE-PROFESSIONAL CURRICULUMS

Today , many professional schools require for entrance two or more years of college credit in general education or basic liberal arts courses , which vary only slightly from one profession to another. Since such work is required for the ·professional teacher-'preparation curriculums , Peru offers a variety of courses that serve as pre-professional . education, .not only for prospective teachers, but also for prospective doctors, dentists, pharmacists, nurses, veterinarians, lawyers, engineers, agriculturists, foresters, morticians, business executives, journalists, and others.

Students who come to Peru . for pre-professional education are assigned to counselors who assist them in selecting the ·courses they need. Those interested in preparing to ,t~ach vocational agriculture or vocational homemaking may take the first two years of training &t Peru and finish at the University of Nebraska. The vocational agricµlture curriculum is outlined in the program of the Science and Mathematics Division; that in vocational home-making in the program of the Practical Arts Division.

PROGRAM OF INSTRUCTION

JUNIOR TERMINAL OR VOCATIONAL CURRICULUMS

Many students are unable to attend college four years or more and wish to prepare for an occupation that requires less time in preparation than to do the professions. Such students will find a variety of eductional opportunities at Peru, opportunities to prepare for attractive occupations in one or two years.

Since there is a demand for teachers in Nebraska with less than a professional education, four junior terminal teacher-preparation curriculums have been organized to meet this need. The four curriculums are outlined in detail in the program of the Education Division and are as follows:

Two- Year Curriculum in Kindergarten-Primary Teaching

Two-Year Curriculum in Intermediate Grade Teaching

One-Year Curriculum in Rural School Teaching

Twelve-Week Curriculum in Rural School Teaching

Presented in the program of the Practical Arts Division are the following curriculums:

Two-Year Curriculum in Home Making

Two-Year Specialized Curriculum in Industrial Arts

One-Year Curriculum in Clerical Training

One-Year Curriculum in Home Making

One-Year Curriculum in Secretarial Science

With the assistance of counselors, students may also elect courses that will prepare in one or two years for the following fields of work:

Applied Biology

Bookkeeping

Business Administration

Catering

Cooking

Crafts

Drafting

Electricity

Geology

• Library Work

Metal Work

Music

Printing

ADMISSION TO TEACHER-PREPARATION CURRICULUMS*

Admission to the coll~ge (page 28) constitutes admission to the liberal arts curriculum, pre -professional curriculums, and junior terminal curri~ulums (exclusive of those that prepare for teaching). To be admitted to any of the curriculums leading to recommendation for a Nebraska

PROGRAM OF INSTRUCTION

teachers certificate, a student must be approved by an -evaluation committee consisting of: (1) the chairman of the personnel committee, (2) the head of the education division-or his representative, (3) the head of the division in which the student's major will be found-or representative of such division head, (4) the dean of the college, and (5) the dean of women.

The procedure to be followed by students who wish to be considered for admission to the twelve-week and one..year curriculums in rural education and the two-year curriculums in elementary education consists merely of indicating on the regular application for admission to the college the curriculum desired in each case, and of checking to see that the transcript of high school record (or previous college record) has been received by the registrar. Admission to any one of the above curriculums constitutes admission to the others, if a student wishes to transfer or progress from one to another.

In the case of the four - year professional education curriculurris, the firs1- two years are considered to be pre-professional in natu re Therefore , admission must be gained to the upper or professional division by each student before entering the third or junior year. The procedu re is the same as that outlined above except that a special application form - Application for Admission to Professional Curriculum- is used . Students who have been admitted previously to a junior teacher -preparation curriculum must app ly for a dmission a second time, when they reach the uppe r division.

The bases on which the evaluation committee will judge the qualifications of each student seeking admission to a teacher-preparation curriculum are: (1) the student's scholarship record; (2) the student's record in the regular freshman and sophomore testing programs; (3) the student's work record, if he has had work experience; and (4) the student's record of service to his school and his community.

*The a dmi ssion procedure described here was a dop ted on February 7, 1950, to become effective at once. However, for students who firs t enrolled in Peru between S eptember 1, 1945 and September 1, 1950 , the recommendation of the evaluation com mittee shall be considered adviso r y rather than mandator y.

PILOT GUIDANCE CENTER

The first "pilot guidance center" in Nebraska under the sponsorship of the Department of Vocational Education was established at Peru in 1948 . The purpose of the ' center is to develop and maintain a guidance service program for the schools in the Peru area and, in addition, to set up the best possible g uidance progr<1m in the Peru Training School.

The center is active in the following areas: counseling, occupational informa tion, career conferences, organization an d administration of guidance programs, orientation, testing services, records, diagnosing student needs, home roo ms, and community guidance. School administrators, teachers, a nd students are invited in for conferences, consultation, or study concerning any guid ance probl ems they might have ·

The director of the pilot guidance center is available to visit surro unding schools, upon invitation, and is r~ady to assist t he personnel of such schools in the study of their guidance problems .

STUDY-CENTER AND CORRESPONDENCE COURSES Purpose

Each year, many individuals, who are employed at some dist ance from the College, have the time and inclination to do some college work but cannot attend the regular classes on the campus. To these, t he college offers two types of service: study center courses and course,s by correspondence

Study center and correspondence courses have some a dvantages over residence work and often are found to be satisfactory substitutes for it. Nevertheless, it is considered advisable to take the major portion of any curriculum in residence. Therefore, the amount of study center and correspondence credit that may be counted in meeting diplom a or degre e requirements is limited to one-fourth of the total requirem ent in each case, an d not more than one-eighth may be correspondence credit.

- Study-Center Regulations

Within the study-center program, a broad subject field is open to practicing teachers and others who wish to attend classes in their home counties. Any non-l aboratory course desir e d by a group of 15 students or more will be offered subject to the approval of the division giving the course af\d the ava ilability of an instructor. Regular faculty members conduct the courses.

Study-center courses carry the same time and work requirements as classes held on the campus . Residence credit may be earned, if applied for at the time of registration.

A student may carry two study-center courses at one time, provided the total semester-hour load is no more than six hours. If the student's grades indicate a scholarship of "C" or below, however, he will be restricted to one study-center course and ·a m a ximum load of three semester hours .

The fees charged for stud:)1- center courses are a course fee of $6.50 per credit hour and a book rental fee of $7.00 of which $2.00 is refunded upon the completion of th e course. New students pay the usu al matriculation fee of $5.00.

EXTENSION SERVICES

Arrangements are made for the organization of study-center classes, and for meeting places, through county superintendents or the Director of Special Services, Nebraska State Teachers College at Peru.
