standards f o r teachers education and certification on a national scale. Of the approximately twenty colleges and Universities which offer education courses in Michigan, only eight have* been granted accreditation by this organization up to this date. Previous to its visit, the committee thoroughly studied a onehundred page report submitted by the education department,

which s t a t e d its structure, achievements and reasons for believing it should be accredited. The committee met with various individuals and groups on campus including student advisors and a selected group of junior students. They also had meetings with various public school teachers and supervisors in the Holland school system who are connected with Hope's student teaching activities. A f t e r it has been completed, the committee will turn in its report to the Washington, D.C. headquarters of N-CATE where it will be thoroughly studied. Hope will be notified of its decision during the first week of May. The committee was headed by Dr. Massanari of Goshen College, Goshen, Indiana. Also among the members of the committee was Mr. Eugene Richardson, present director of the division of teachers certification of Michigan's Department of Public Instruction. The accreditation, if granted, will f u r t h e r the certification of Hope graduate teachers in states other than Michigan and will also affect Hope's status in its relationship to other small liberal a r t s colleges. Up to this point, Hope College has received full accreditation from the Association of American Universities, the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, the American Association of University Women, and The American Chemical Society. The Music Department has also received recent accreditation by a national music association.

Profs 'Take to the Road" Four Hope College professors are among 175 top scientists and mathematicians from Michigan colleges and universities who are "taking to the road" to share their wealth of knowledge with students and teachers in secondary schools throughout the state. The visiting scientists program, administered through Michigan S t a t e University's Science and Mathematics Teacher Center, is being sponsored by the Michigan Academy of Science, Arts and Letters with the financial support of the National Science Foundation. Participating in the program from Hope College are: Dr. Harry Frissel of the Physics Department, Dr. Irwin Brink of the Chemistry Department, Dr. Jay Folkert of the Mathematics Department, Dr. Philip Crook of the Biology Department. The project, being conducted during the academic year, is directed by Dr. Wayne Taylor, associate professor in the MSU Science and Mathematics Teaching Center.

He explains that the scientists, in their one-day visits to schools, lecture and give demonstrations to classes, consult with groups of teachers, and more likely than not, give special talks before science clubs a f t e r school hours. Dr. Taylor, who was instrumental in starting a similar program in Texas before joining the MSU staff in 1959, said the visiting scientist program has a dual purpose. "It not only helps to encourage those students interested in science as a career, it also helps to produce an informed citizenry concerning science, an aspect which is also vitally important," he said. Schools throughout the state are receiving the program"enthusiastically," Dr. Taylor reports, adding that requests f o r the visit have come from schools in all p a r t s of Michigan. Other institutions t a k i n g part include: Albion College, Central Michigan University, Eastern Michigan University, Ferris Institute, Kalamazoo College, (Cont'd on P a g e 3)
