To Prospective Peruvians:

Peru State is the oldest college in Nebraska and the third oldest teacher-training institution west of the Missouri River. Peru was established the same year Nebraska became a state. For 38 years it was the only teacher-training institution in Nebraska. For more than nine decades this College has been serving the young people of the state and surrounding states. During these 94 years, thousands of young people have crossed the Campus of a Thousand Oaks and have gone forth to become teachers, advisors, and friends to countless millions of children through· out the length and breadth of this great country.

The people of the State of Nebraska have made the facilities of this fine College available to you at a minimum of personal cost. The taxpayers of the state bear most of the cost of your college education exclusive of personal expenses. This support is in conformance with the deep-rooted American principle that every young person is entitled to a college education at reasonable expense to himself and to his family.

This College believes in high academic standards, in opportunities for self-expression and personal growth in a controlled group atmosphere. You will have an opportunity to know your teachers well and to become acquainted with and associate with the finest young people anywhere. The opportunity to live with other young people · in college residences offers occasion for friendship and growth for which even living at home is no complete substitute.

Some of our alumni have achieved fame and fortune. Some are situated in positions of high responsibility. The roll of honor of illustrious graduates is long and brilliant. But no matter what their station there is a loyalty to school and state which has been undimmed by the passing years. Because of this loyalty and affection, Peru has served the children, grandchildren and great grandchildren of many of our first students.

The College faculty and staff are here to serve you. We will be happy to c~nsult with you regarding your educational plans.

Sincerely yours,

...

GENERAL INFORMATION HISTORY

The same year Nebraska became a state, the new state legislature provided for the establishment of a training school for teachers or "normal school" at Peru. At that time only two other such institutions existed west of the Missouri River-0ne in Kansas and one in California . The school's beginning actually dates back to December 2, 1865, when its predecessor institution, Mount Vernon College, was organized by a group of early settlers who resolved to place the school under the "care and management of the Methodist Episcopal Church."

After the church declined the offer, Col. T. J . Majors, a leader in the War Between the States and a state legislator, proposed that the school be made the state university. Although the offer was rejected, the state legislature on June 20, 1867, did accept the school as a "normal school" several months before the state university was established. For 38 years after the Peru school became a "normal school," it was the only teacher education institution in the state .

As Nebraska' s population increased; the legislature provided for three other normal schools-at Kearney in 1905, at Wayne in 1910, and at Chadron in 1911. The legislature extended the normal schools from two years to four years in 1921, and authorized these institutions to grant the degrees of Bachelor of Arts in Education, Bachelor of Science in Education, and Bachelor of Fine Arts in Education .

When the United States entered World War II, the College offered its staff and facilities to the government for the training of officers for the armed forces The first unit of men in the Navy V-12 program arrived on July 1, 1943. During the time the nearly 500 trainees received college training, the College operated on an accelerated program for both civilian students and naval trainees Since that time many of these trainees have used the hours of college credit earned at Peru for degree requirements at Peru or other institutions of higher learning throughout the nation .

The liberal arts curriculum which was authorized by the 1949 legislature made it possible for the teacher-education institutions to confer the Bachelor of Arts degree. At the same time the names of the schools were changed from State Normal Schools to State Teachers Colleges.

Furthermore, the student can demonstrate an interest in his classes and a responsibility for his attendance by advising the instructors of his illness or other emergency which prevent his attendance. No student is expected to attend classes when he is ill. ·

Students above freshman classification having a grade point average of less than 3 .50 at the end of any semester are likewise placed on scholastic probation .

Probation is removed if the student achieves the minimum GPA at the close of the semester. Failure to meet this minimum GPA will cause the student to be suspended for one semester or for an indefinite period. A student having been suspended must apply for readmission and must meet the conditions as described by the Personnel and Scholarship Committee. When a student is readmitted after a period of suspension, he must show satisfactory progress or the next suspension becomes permanent .

It is customary for assistants from the current year to be elevated to the editorship and business manager position the following year. All · staff members are approved by the Board of Student Publications each fall.

Handbook for Peru Staters is published in late summer by the Student Senate under the direction of the Office of Special Services. The publication serves as a guide to campus living for all freshmen and other new students.

PROGRAM OF INSTRUCTION

The College is supported by the state of Nebraska for the ·purpose of meeting the educational needs at the college level of the citizens of the state. Its chief purpose is to prepare men and women to serve in the elementary and secondary schools as teachers and for higher study in preparation as supervisors and administrators . The College also provides a general liberal education, pre-professional education or terminal vocational education.

The instructional programs of the College consist of seven interrelated divisional programs under the captions of:

Division of Education

Division of Fine Arts

Division of Health and Physical Education

Division of History and Social Science

Division of Language Arts

Division of Practical Arts

Division of Science and Mathematics

SELECTION OF PROGRAM OF STUDIES

To serve the students of the College with reference to the above programs, the courses offered under the several divisions are organized into curriculums, a term applied to a group of courses designed for an individual or for a group of individuals having a common purpose. The studies offered by the College include four-year professional curriculums in elementary education and in secondary education; a four-year liberal arts program flexible enough to satisfy a variety of interests; and a number of one-year and two-year terminal and pre-professional curriculums.

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 set forth and required by all individuals for effective living, regardless of their vocations. The specialized courses are those that prepare specifically for teaching or other vocations, or satisfy special avocational or cultural interests.

Upon enrolling, a student chooses a vocational objective or a field of principal cuitural interest. This determines the curriculum that he will follow and the counselor who will guide him in his educational experi-ences. The choice may be tentative and may be changed later.

GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS

In general, students will follow the graduation requirements as outlined in the catalog current at the time of matriculation. Exceptions are :as follows: (1) students whose progress toward a degree has been ir-

THE PROFESSIONAL SEMESTER

A faculty enactment on December 1, 1958 , authorized the establishment of a plan to be known as a Professional Semester for prospective teachers at the secondary school level. It is imperative that the program of studies for all junior and sophomore students in secondary education be made with the greatest care and consideration for the time that these students will be in the Professional Semester of their senior year. Courses in the Professional Semester are to be taken only in the senior year .

The intent of this plan is to strengthen the program of teacher education and to place the college in a better position to meet the demands of a further increasing enrollment.

56

PROGRAM OF INSTRUCTION

A student enrolled in the Professional Semester Plan will study in the following courses:

(Adjustments will be made in tbe board and room charges for the period the student teacher is off-campus.)

The fir st nine weeks of the semester consists of intensive course work and pre-student teaching experiences . The following six weeks will be devoted to full-time student teaching in one of the cooperating schools . The final three weeks of the semester will be spent on-campus and will consist of an evaluation and remedial pha se.

GENERAL EDUCATION REQUIREMENTS

The College requires a definite program of general education of all students. An academic progres s sheet is maintained by the counselor and the student as a guide to the student in reaching his education al objectives. The general education requirements are as follows :

PRE-PROFESSIONAL CURRICULUMS

Most 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 curriculums in training teachers, this college offers a variety of courses that serve as pre-professional education. Suggested among these are those for prospective doctors, dentists , pharmacists, nurses, veterinarians, lawyers, engineers, agriculturists, foresters, morticians, business executives, journalists and others . It is almost impossible to list all of the many pre-professional curricula. This does not preclude the availability of other pre-professional courses at Peru State. A student following a pre-professional program is urged to secure a bulletin from the institution to which he intends to transfer in order that specific requirements will be met. The following are some pre-professional curriculums .

Pre-Agriculture

It should be remembered that there are various programs within agriculture, and therefore the program must be planned to meet later needs. Consult the catalog of the professional school you plan to attend to make certain you meet the pre-agriculture requirements . Grades of less than average will generally not transfer to professional schools. The following program is suggested for the first sixty hours:

The requirements for different forestry schools vary. Early in the preforestry program the student should consult the catalog of the college he plans to attend later. Grades of below average will probably not transfer. The plan below is quite general.

transfer. Some law college s require the baccalaureat e degree for ad mission, some require three years of general colle ge, and others require only two years for admission.

The following program of studies is desi gned to meet the above various requirements. Following the completion of thr ee years at Peru and th e suc,cessful completion of one year in an accredited law college , a st udent may be awarded the A.B . degree.

The pre-medical student should plan to become a candidat e for the liberal arts degree with a general science major He is also advised to sample all t he humanities and obtain a well rounded program. Only superior students may hope to be accepted by medi ca l sc hools Personality and reputation are important factors which ma y be more significant than merely meeting minimum requirements . Few candidates are accepted without the A.B . degree. What is said regarding pre-medicine is also true with pre-dental programs except that the A.B. de gree at present is not an absolute prerequisite. Below is a suggested program for both programs, but the student is advised to secure a catalog from the professional school he expects to attend, as individual schools vary in requirements. Admission tests are required of all applicants, and are administered by the Educational Testing Service at least one year before application is made.

The following program is suggested as prerequisite for entering a College of Mortuary Science.

Some Colleges of Nursing require two years (60 semester hours) of prenursing, others require less. Students following a pre -nursing curriculum should know the requirements of the particular School of Nursing to which they will transfer. The program below, based on two semesters and one summer, will meet the requirements to enter the University of Nebraska School of

This program is based upon 60 hours of basic science and must include at least the following

The Division of Education has as its major function the preparation of the best possible teachers for Nebraska elementary and secondary schools . Readiness to teach is conditioned by a variety of factors. One of the most important of these factors is provided by the other divisions of the College, i.e , mastery of the subject matter to be taught. Other important factors, although of interest to all divisions of the College, are primarily the responsibility of the Division of Education. Amon g these are:

1. Understanding of human growth and development

2 A knowled ge of the development of educational thought and practice in a democratic society.

3. Good mental health and rational behavior

4. Awareness by the teacher candidate of his own problems , the way in which these problems affect his pupils, and how he can adapt his behavior to minimize the negative consequences of th ese problems.

5. Sensitivity to factors which influence learning.

6 Sufficient poise and self-confidence for classroom leade rship.

7 Skill in cooperation.

8. Professional attitude.

9,. Knowledge and ability to apply basic principles of learning in the classroom.

10. Understanding of the processes involved in arriving at a logical solution to a problem and the ability to initiate planning and direct an organized attack on a problem in arriving at a solution based on available information.

11. Development of guiding principles upon which to base decisions pertaining to education in a progressing, ever-changing society

Students completing the suggested curriculums will, with the recommendation of the College, qualify for certification to teach in the schools of Nebraska and in other states.

The following teacher education programs are offered:

PROGRAM IN ELEMENTARY EDUCATION

MODERN LANGUAGES

Although foreign language is not prescribed as a requirement in the earning of a degree in education , students who are anticipating advanced professional and graduate study should consider their own needs. Law, medicine, engi neering, etc., require foreign l anguages and most graduate schools require one or more languages for graduation Students are encouraged to take these courses as undergraduates. Students preparing to work in some other country should take the language of that country. Through the reading of choice literary work in their original language a .greater interest in the people who use these lan guages is stimulated and better understanding is created. The existence of the United Nations makes this last point a necessary consideration.
