HISTORY.
The Curry Memorial School of Education was founded in 1905 as one
of the academic schools of the University. It was endowed by gifts of
$100,000 from John D. Rockefeller and $50,000 from the General Education
Board, and was named in honor of Dr. J. L. M. Curry, the Southern
educator. There were originally two professorships in the School, the
Curry Memorial Professorship of Education and the Professorship of Secondary
Education. In 1914 a chair of Educational Psychology and Principles
of Teaching was added to the School, and two years later a Professorship
of School Administration was established.
In 1919 the School was organized into a Department of the University,
with four professorships, and was placed upon a professional basis similar
to that of the Departments of Law, Medicine and Engineering. The relation
of the Department of Education to the various academic schools of the
University remains close, however, since the academic training of students
of Education is obtained in the academic schools, and courses in Education
are credited toward the academic degrees.
PURPOSE.
The rapid development of educational science and practice has made
it necessary that ample provision be made for the professional training of
those who expect to teach or to administer school affairs. It is the main purpose
of the Department of Education to provide opportunity for such professional
training. Since education is of great importance as an agency
of Democracy and as an aspect of civilization, the Department also aims to
provide courses of cultural value for citizens generally. In addition to affording
opportunities for study and training, the Department, as a part of the
State University, offers its services to school authorities throughout Virginia,
with a desire to coöperate in the solution of practical educational problems
and in the furtherance of public education.
PEABODY HALL.
Peabody Hall, the Education Building, was named in honor of George
Peabody, who in 1867 made his great gift to the cause of education in the
South. The building was made possible through a gift of $40,000 from the
trustees of the Peabody Education Fund. This amount was supplemented
by an appropriation of $12,000 from the Rector and Visitors of the University.
The building was completed in 1912, and is the home of the Curry
Memorial Department of Education.
The plans were drawn by a modern school architect, and approved by
the leading authorities on school architecture in this country who were consulted
before its erection. It is, therefore, a model of excellence in this regard.
It is one of the best equipped buildings in the University, and has
ample classroom and laboratory facilities, and an excellent auditorium
equipped with a modern motion picture machine. Modern requirements in
heating, lighting and ventilation are exemplified in its construction without
sacrificing conformity to the general style of classic architecture prevailing
in the University.
THE HECK MEMORIAL LIBRARY.
The Department of Education maintains its own library in Peabody
Hall, named in honor of the first professor of Education in the University,
the late Professor William Harry Heck. The library was made possible
through the gift by Mrs. Anna Tuttle Heck of Professor Heck's private library
containing approximately 2000 well-selected books on Education, and
the transfer of all books on Education from the General Library of the University.
Splendid equipment was procured through a gift of money from
students in Education, the Education Club and friends of Professor Heck.
A recent gift of $2000 from Mr. Alfred W. Erickson of New York City will
enable the Department so to strengthen its professional library as to offer
very superior facilities to its rapidly growing student body, by making possible
the enrichment of every course now offered. At present the library
consists of several thousand select books covering most fields of Education,
various national, state and foreign documents, state school laws, annual reports
of state superintendents of public instruction, city superintendents' reports,
etc. Files of the leading educational magazines are available for free
use of the students. Exhibits of elementary and high school texts for comparative
studies are made available through the generosity of various publishers.
OBSERVATION, DIRECTED TEACHING AND RESEARCH
STUDIES.
Laboratory facilities are made available through the coöperation of the
school systems of the County of Albemarle and the City of Winchester, the
local school boards in each case having approved such coöpertaion. This
arrangement gives to students in the Department of Education a splendid
opportunity to study the problems of both city and county school organization
and administration.
The school system of Albemarle County is now organized on the county
unit basis. It consists of the following schools for white pupils: seven accredited
four-year high schools, four junior high schools, five four-room
schools, four three-room schools, fourteen two-room schools and twenty-one
one-room schools. A number of the small schools are recognized by the
State Department of Education as standard in their respective grades. During
the session of 1922-23 there were 4500 white pupils enrolled. These were
taught by 130 elementary school teachers and 36 high school teachers. The
supervision of the county schools is under the direction of the county superintendent
and four full time supervisors.
The total value of sites, buildings and equipment is $435,000. This includes
several new buildings of modern construction.
The school system of the city of Winchester is open for observation,
research and experiment by students of the Department of Education. This
school system is divided into four departments: Primary, consisting of kindergarten
and Grades 1, 2 and 3; Elementary, consisting of Grades 4, 5 and
6; Junior High School, consisting of Grades 7, 8 and 9; and Senior High
School consisting of Grades 10, 11 and 12. Each department is in charge of
a supervisor who gives all of his or her time to supervision except in the case
of the supervisor of the junior high school, who does part time teaching temporarily.
There are twelve teachers in the primary department, ten in the
elementary department, and seventeen in the junior and senior high school
departments.
The new plant opened in 1923 provides many features in addition to the
regular classrooms. For the elementary school division there will be a covered
play court with fresh air ventilation for year-round use; a nature study
court outdoor classrooms for convalescent and anemic children; and facilities
for hot lunch provided in the high school cafeteria. In the junior and senior
high school division, besides the regular classrooms equipped with movable
desks, there will be a business department with special equipment; science
special equipment; art studios; music studios; industrial shops for woodworking,
metal working, electrical working and agriculture; library study and
reference room; gymnasium and swimming pool; teachers' work room and library.
For recreation and community service there will be provided an art
gallery exhibit and history museum, auditorium seating twelve hundred, an
athletic stadium, tennis courts, golf course, arboretum, and public park.
ENTRANCE REQUIREMENTS.
Requirements for the Admission of Men.—To be admitted to regular
standing in the Department of Education, men must have satisfied the entrance
requirements of the College. Students who have decided to enter the
teaching profession at the time of entering college should register with the
Dean of the Department of Education in order to be advised in planning
their curricula. Holders of State Teachers' Scholarships are required to
register in the Department of Education.
Requirements for the Admission of Women.—To be admitted to regular
standing in the Department of Education, women must be twenty years of
age, must meet the entrance requirements of the University and must have
completed two years of college work aggregating thirty session-hours in
academic subjects. Candidates not able to meet these requirements may
make up their deficiencies during the summer quarter.
Special Students.—(a) Graduates of colleges and universities other than
the University of Virginia, desiring to secure the necessary professional
training to qualify for the Collegiate Professional Certificate, may register
in the Department of Education and upon completion of the required courses
receive a certificate which will entitle them to the Collegiate Professional
Certificate issued by the State Board of Education.
(b) Men may be admitted as special students without fulfilling the entrance
requirements above specified, provided that, if they are Virginians,
they are more than twenty years old or, if they are not Virginians, they are
more than twenty-three years old, on the day of registration, and give adequate
evidence of serious purpose and of the training needed to pursue with
profit the courses for which they are registered. No special student may
be a candidate for a degree; but such students are permitted and encouraged
to make up deficiencies by private study or by taking courses in the Summer
Quarter. They will then be admitted as regular students, and may be accepted
as applicants for degrees, provided all entrance requirements are met
at least one academic year before the date of graduation.
(c) Women, twenty-five years of age, giving satisfactory evidence that
they are qualified to pursue courses in Education successfully, may be admitted
as special students, even though they fail to show credit for the 30
session-hours of academic work required of women for admission to regular
standing.
In addition to the above, each candidate must pass at the University a
This examination will be held on the Tuesday of the first week of the session.
Advanced Standing is given to any candidate who, in addition to meeting
the minimum requirements for entrance above stated, can show by passing
an examination given sometime during the first month of his first session
that he has done work equivalent to that covered by any of the following
courses offered in the college: Latin A1, Greek A1, Greek A2, English A1
or A2 or A3, German A1, Mathematics A1, French A, Spanish A. Candidates
who apply for examination for advanced standing must present a
special certificate showing that the full content of the course, on which advanced
standing is sought, has been covered in a systematic manner in the
preparatory school, and in addition must present the specific recommendation
of the principal of the school that the candidate be admitted to the advanced
standing examination in question. This examination will be held
on the Tuesday of the week during which entrance examinations are held.
College Credit.—Candidates who desire credit for work done at other
colleges, must satisfy the entrance requirements for regular students, and
must, in addition, file with the Dean of the Department a certificate covering
the courses for which college credit is desired. The certificate must bear the
official signature of the head of the candidate's college, must specify the
character and content of the courses passed by the candidate, and must give
his grades. The final validation of such certificates is effected by the successful
completion of not less than 12 session-hours of work during his first
session. In no case will credit be given on more than forty-five session-hours
of work done elsewhere, and any candidate who receives this maximum
amount of credit can count among the remaining fifteen session-hours
required for his degree only the credit value of the courses he has passed as
a resident student in the College, exclusive of any credit for work done in
the Summer Quarter or in any of the professional departments. In every
case the candidate must spend the last session of his candidacy, which must
be a regular session of nine months, exclusively in college work in this university;
and the courses offered as major electives must all have been completed
in residence in this university. A maximum of 15 session-hours may
be granted for one year of college work, and 33 hours for two years.
Conditioned Students.—A candidate for entrance must offer fifteen units
as defined by the Southern Commission on Accredited Schools. At least
thirteen of the units offered must be included in the list of units accepted for
admission on page —. A student who, while able to offer fifteen units, cannot
offer fifteen units as defined in this list, may be conditioned on any two
units not including English A, B, or C, or Mathematics A1. All conditions
should be absolved before the beginning of the session following initial registration.
This may be done by passing entrance examinations or by passing
equivalent courses in the Summer Quarter. But no course taken to remove
a condition may be counted as part of the work credited toward a degree.
No conditioned student may be later registered as a special student. |
The Dean's List.—A student who passes on not less than fifteen session-hours
during a session with an average of at least eighty-five per cent.,
and with no session grade less than seventy-five per cent., will be placed
on the Dean's List, and will remain on the List as long as he receives an
average of at least eighty-five per cent., on at least fifteen session-hours
per term and receives no term grade less than seventy-five per cent. in any
course. Any student on the Dean's List failing to maintain this standard
of excellence will be automatically dropped from the List. A student once
dropped from the List can again make the Dean's List by meeting the
above standard for an entire session. A student on the Dean's List is not
subject to the regulations limiting the issuance of leaves of absence from
the University, nor does absence from any class entail on such student any
penalty, affecting class standing, imposed for absence alone.
GRADUATE WORK IN EDUCATION.
Graduate work in Education leading to the degrees of Master of Arts,
Master of Science or Doctor of Philosophy may be pursued in the Department
of Graduate Studies. Graduate students who choose Education as
their major for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy must meet the entrance
requirements of the Department of Graduate Studies, and, in addition, must
pass, at least two terms prior to receiving the degree, preliminary written
examinations in each of the following fields: History of Education, Educational
Psychology, Educational Administration, Secondary Education, and
Educational Sociology. The candidate must also pass a final oral examination
upon his dissertation and the general fields of his major and minor subjects.
The Department of Education offers the following graduate courses:
Education C1, Advanced Educational Psychology; Education C2, Educational
Surveys, State, City and County; Education C3, Standard Tests in
School Subjects; Education C4, Problems in Secondary Education; Education
C5, Social Education; Education C6, Mental Tests and Their Applications;

REGULATIONS.
(1) The Session-Hour.—All courses are measured in terms of the session-hour
as a unit. A session-hour is one hour a week throughout the session
of lecture or recitation, or two hours a week throughout the session of
laboratory work.
(2) Maximum and Minimum Number of Session-Hours.—Each College
student is required to undertake each session courses aggregating at least
fifteen session-hours (with the exception noted under Probation below).
This number may be increased in the following cases:
(I) Any first-year student may take eighteen session-hours, provided
he is credited with six session-hours of advanced standing.
(II) A student not in his first year in the College may take eighteen
session-hours, provided he (a) has passed in the preceding session or in the
third term thereof courses aggregating fifteen session-hours, or (b) is in his
graduating year and needs eighteen session-hours for his degree.
(III) A student not in his first year may take twenty-one session-hours
provided he passed in the preceding session or in the third term thereof
courses aggregating eighteen session-hours.
(IV) Any student whose term grade (or class grade, if the term grade
is not available) for the first or second term is at least 75 per cent. in each
of his courses, may take three additional session-hours for the ensuing term.
Exceptions to the above regulations will be allowed only by special permission
of the Committee on Rules and Courses.
Physical Training is not counted in the maximum and minimum requirements
detailed above.
(3) Grade.—The grade of a college student in course either for a term
or for the session, is determined by his class standing and his examination
grade, combined in such proportion as the professor in charge of the course
in question may decide. Class standing in any course is determined by the
other similar exercises) of the course, and by the quality of his work, as indicated
by his recitation grades, written tests, laboratory work, etc. For
passing in any course in the college a grade of seventy-five cent is required.
(4) Exclusion from Courses, Probation and Suspension.
(I) Exclusion from Courses:
A student who, after due admonition, is evidently making no real progress
in a course, may, at any time during the session, be excluded from the
course by the Dean upon the recommendation of the instructor concerned.
A student whose term grade in a course is less than 50 per cent., or who
discontinues the course without the permission of the Dean, or who is absent
without excuse from the term examination, will be automatically excluded
from the course.
Any student receiving a grade of less than 65 per cent. in English A1,
A2, or A3 in the first or second term, must drop the course and take up
English A4 at the beginning of the ensuing term.
(II) Probation:
(1) A student placed on 15-hour probation must pass on at least 6 session-hours
of his work and average at least 60 per cent. on all his courses,
or else be suspended from the College. A student placed on 15-hour probation
who attains an average grade of at least 70 per cent. on all his courses,
is absolved from probation.
(2) A student placed on 12-hour probation must pass on at least 6 session-hours
of his work and average at least 65 per cent. on all his courses,
or else be suspended from the College. A student on 12-hour probation
whose average grade on all his courses is at least 75 per cent., may take up
3 additional session-hours and be absolved from probation.
(3) A student on 9-hour probation must pass on 6 session-hours of
his work and average at least 70 per cent. on all his courses, or else be suspended
from College. A student on 9-hour probation whose average grade
on all his courses is at least 75 per cent., may take up 3 additional session-hours
and be placed on 12-hour probation for the term next ensuing. A
student on 9-hour probation who passes on all his courses may take up 6
additional session-hours and be absolved from probation.
(III) Suspension:
Suspension means enforced withdrawal from the College. If imposed during
the session, it applies to the remainder of the regular session; if imposed at
the end of the session; it applies to the whole of the subsequent session. In
no case does it apply to the Summer Quarter. See also (6) below. No student
suspended for a second time may re-enter the College.
(IV) Probation and Suspension are administered as follows:
(1) A student who by exclusion from a course or courses is left at the
end of the first or second term with only 12 session-hours, is put on 12-hour
12 session-hours is at least 75 per cent. In this case he may take
up 3 additional session-hours and escape probation.
(2) A student who by exclusion from a course or courses is left at the
end of the first or second term with only 9 session-hours, (a) will be put on
9-hour probation,[2]
unless his average grade on his remaining 9 session-hours
is at least 75 per cent., in which case he may take up 3 additional session-hours
and be put on 12-hour probation, or, (b) if he be other than a first-year
student he will be suspended unless he has passed on at least 3 session-hours.
(3) Any student not in his first year, who by exclusion from a course
or courses is left at any time during the session with only 6 session-hours,
will be suspended at the end of the term. Any first-year student left with
only 6 session-hours will be suspended at the end of the term unless he has
passed on at least 3 session-hours. In this case he will be required to take up
3 additional session-hours and be put on 9-hour probation for the ensuing
term.
(4) Any student not on probation who fails to attain a third-term grade
or a session grade of at least 75 per cent. on at least 9 session-hours of his
work, will be put on 15-hour probation for the first term of the subsequent
session. A student who is permitted to withdraw from the University during
the session will be readmitted on 15-hour probation if, at the time of his
withdrawal, he was (a) on probation, or (b) passing on less than 9 session-hours
of his work. A student previously suspended will, if re-admitted to
the College, be placed on 15-hour probation.
(5) No student may remain on probation for more than three terms,
whether consecutive or not, in his entire college course. If his record is such
as to call for the imposition of probation for a fourth time, he will be suspended
instead of being placed on probation.
(6) Probation of suspension imposed at the end of the regular session
may be absolved by the successful completion of prescribed work in the
Summer Quarter.
(7) No student on probation may receive a leave of absence, except for
imperative cause, nor may such a student be a member of any student organization
which publicly represents the University, such as athletic teams,
musical clubs, student publications, etc.
(5) Absence from Examinations will not be excused, except for sickness
on the day of examination, attested by a physician's certificate, or for
other cause which the Faculty by special order may approve. An unexcused
absence is counted as a total failure.
A student excused from more than one-half of his term examinations
which publicly represents the University, such as the athletic teams, musical
clubs, student publications, etc., until he has passed his examinations.
No student may remain in the College if he misses all the examinations
of two consecutive terms on account of illness.
(6) Special Examinations.—A student whose absence from an examination
is excused, in accordance with (5) above, is entitled to a special examination
on a date during the regular session to be arranged between himself
and the professor in charge of the examination.
(7) Re-Examinations.—(I) A College student whose session grade in
any course falls below seventy-five per cent., but not below sixty-five per
cent., may, upon the written recommendation of the professor in charge, be
admitted to re-examination upon that course, or upon such portion of it as
the professor shall determine, during the registration week of the following
September. The fee for each re-examination is five dollars, and it should be
paid to the Bursar on or before July fifteenth.
(II) The candidate for the academic degree who fails on only one of
his courses during his final session of candidacy is entitled to a special reexamination
on the work of that course before the final day, provided that
he average at least 65 per cent on the work of the three terms, and provided
the professor in charge recommends that the candidate be granted a re-examination.
The professor in charge is to decide whether the candidate is
to stand a re-examination upon the whole course, or upon some portion or
portions of the course. No fee is charged for such re-examination.
It should be carefully noted, in connection with both (I) and (II)
above, that no student is entitled to more than one re-examination on a
given course without repeating the course.
(8) Reports.—Reports are sent at the end of each term to the parent
or guardian of each College student. These reports indicate the number of
times the student has been absent from lectures, and give his term grade on
each course. The dean will be glad at any time to furnish to the proper person
a special report on any student's standing.
In addition to the above, a report on the standing of each first year
student in the College is sent to the student's parent or guardian early in
November.
(9) Conduct.—The laws of the University require from every student
decorous, sober, and upright conduct as long as he remains a member of
the University, whether he be within the precincts or not. Drunkenness,
gambling, and dissoluteness are strictly forbidden, and the President may
dismiss from the University for the residue of the current session every
student found guilty of them, or may administer such other discipline as
seems best under the circumstances.
The president will dismiss from the University every student convicted
of public drunkenness.
In all cases of discipline, the law requires that the student must first be
and defense.
The keeping of dogs by students within the University grounds is forbidden.
(10) Voluntary Withdrawal.—Voluntary withdrawal from the University
requires the written consent of the Dean of the University as well as the
consent of the student's parent or guardian, if he is a minor. Any student
who withdraws without permission will be recorded as having been suspended
for the residue of the current session. No student on probation may withdraw
except for imperative reasons; and any student on probation who withdraws
without permission will be suspended, not only for the residue of the
current session, but also for the whole of the subsequent session.
(11) Enforced Withdrawal is inflicted for habitual delinquency in class,
habitual idleness, or any other fault which prevents the student from fulfilling
the purposes for which he should have come to the University. See also
suspension, above.
(12) Change of Studies.—No change can be made in a student's program
of studies except with the written consent of the Dean, together with
official notification by the Registrar. No permit for change of courses will be
issued after the end of the first week of each term, except that first-year students
may make such changes within the first two weeks after the beginning
of lectures in September. Any student who drops a course without permission
will receive a grade of zero in that course; and no credit may be received
for any portion of a course attended before formal permission has been
granted as outlined above.
(13) (a) Absence from Lectures may be excused by the professors, but
only for sickness or like providential cause. Any explanation of an absence
which a student has to offer must be made on the day of the first lecture attended
after the absence. Unexcused absence from lectures renders the student
liable to discipline by the Faculty.
It should be carefully noted that no student is "entitled" to be absent
at all. His presence is required at each class or laboratory exercise at which
he is due, unless his absence is excused for reasons outlined above or in the
next paragraph below. Even if the student is absent with excuse, he must
make up the work lost by such absence. No student who was, for any reason,
absent from more than fifty per cent. of the lectures of any one term,
can receive a grade on the work of that term.
(b) Absence from the University is permitted upon the written leave
of the dean, and should in every case be obtained in advance. But leaves
of absence for the purpose of accompanying the athletic teams or musical
clubs on excursions will not be granted, except to the officers and members
of these organizations. The laws relating to absence from the University
of members of the athletic teams are found in the General Catalogue.
The same regulations apply, mutatis mutandis, to members of other student
for imperative cause.
It should also be carefully noted that no leave of absence can be granted just
before or just after a vacation, or just after term exeminations, except for very
grave reasons, or unless the applicant is passing in all his courses.
Or 15-hour probation for a student excluded from English A1, A2, or A3, and thereby
forced to take up English A4.
Or 12-hour probation for a student excluded from English A1, A2, or A3, and thereby
forced to take up English A4.

COLLEGIATE PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATE.
Recipients of the Bachelor of Science in Education will receive the Collegiate
Professional Certificate, the highest form certificate for high-school
teachers issued by the State Board of Education. This certificate is valid for
both high and elementary schools in Virginia.
Holders of Collegiate Certificates, the certificates of second rank issued
by the State Board of Education, may obtain the Collegiate Professional
Certificate by attending the University one session and taking four three-session-hour
courses in Education.
Curricula organized to meet the requirements for the degree of Bachelor
of Science in Education fulfill both academic and professional requirements
for the highest grade of professional high school certificates issued without
examination by the various state departments of Education to holders of
baccalaureate degrees. The graduate courses in Education are recognized
in states requiring graduate study for professional certificates.
SPECIAL CERTIFICATES IN HIGH SCHOOL SUBJECTS.
Students who find it necessary to leave college to teach before completing
their full course may be issued special certificates by the State Board
of Education to teach any high-school subjects in which they have completed
six session-hours of study of college grade. These students should
plan to take two courses in Education during their second year in order to
become familiar with school problems.
COURSES FOR TEACHERS IN SERVICE.
Saturday courses in any subject offered in the Department of Education
will be arranged at the University for teachers in service, if requested
by at least five teachers. Degree credit will be allowed on the same basis
as in the regular courses, provided that not more than one and one-half
session-hours' credit shall be given for the work in any course for one year.
Superintendents and Teachers of Public Schools Exempt from Fees.—
White male teachers and superintendents of the public schools of Virginia
will be admitted, during the last three months of the session, to the Academic
Schools of the University without payment of fees (except those charged in
laboratory courses), upon presentation of certificates that they have been
teachers in the public schools of the State during the year. Applicants for
admission as teachers are required to send their names to the President of
the University not later than March 5.
UNIVERSITY EXTENSION TEACHING COURSES.
Extension teaching courses are courses of instruction corresponding
closely with those regularly given in the University by regular members of
the faculty, and are under the administration, supervision and control of the
University, for the benefit of persons unable to attend the regular courses
of instruction and to take work in residence. Each course represents a definite
amount of study corresponding to an equivalent amount of work done in
residence at the University, and when completed satisfactorily by persons
as if taken in residence.
Extension teaching classes in Education, conducted by members of the
faculty of the Department of Education, were organized in the session of
1924 under the Division of Extension of the University, in Alexandria, Arlington
County, Culpeper, Lynchburg, and Roanoke.
Additional Extension Teaching classes were conducted by members of
the regular faculty of the University and instructors in the Extension Division
of the University in Charlottesville, Lynchburg, Manassas, and Richmond.
Extension Teaching Courses will be organized upon application for
them in as many centers as possible, if a sufficient number (usually not
fewer than fifteen) apply for them. Application for such courses should
be made to the Director of University Extension, Box 149, University, Virginia.
THE SUMMER QUARTER.
The Summer Quarter is an integral part of the University year. Courses
in the College of Arts and Sciences, as well as the Department of Education,
are the same in character and in credit value as in any other Quarter
of the University. Degrees are conferred upon men and women upon exactly
the same terms for work done in the Summer Quarter when the degree
requirements are fully met. Those who contemplate completing their
degree requirements in the Summer Quarter should keep clearly in mind,
in estimating the time that will be required, that the normal amount of credit
which may be taken in one Summer Quarter is six session-hours.
Candidates for a degree who desire credit for work done at other colleges
must satisfy the entrance requirements for regular students and must,
in addition, file with the Dean of the Summer Quarter a certificate covering
the courses for which college credit is desired. This certificate must be acceptable
both to the Dean of the Summer Quarter and to the Dean of the
Department in which the degrees will be obtained. The certificate must bear
the official signature of the head of the candidate's college and must specify
the character and content of the courses passed by the candidate and must
give his grade. In every case the candidate must spend at least three full
Summer Quarters at the University in order to meet the residence requirements.
The Master's degree may be obtained by properly qualified persons in
three Summer Quarters. In no case is this degree to be conferred upon any
person who has not attended and done graduate work three full Summer
Quarters or the equivalent time in the regular session of the University and
the Summer Quarter.
On account of the increasing demand for graduate work in the Summer
Quarter, the number of graduate courses will be enlarged in 1925.
All persons who are looking forward ultimately to taking a degree
through summer work are urgently requested to file with the Dean of the
work for which college credit is desired. Blanks for this purpose will be
mailed upon application.
First Term begins June 22nd and ends August First; Second Term
begins August 3rd and ends September Fifth.
Catalogue and further information may be obtained by addressing
Secretary Summer Quarter, Box 149, University, Virginia.
BUREAU OF TESTS AND MEASUREMENTS.
Educational Tests.—The Department of Education maintains a Bureau
of Tests and Measurements as a feature of its extra-University service. Select
standard tests in school subjects will be supplied to cities, counties and
individual schools at cost. Members of the Faculty of Education will visit
the schools to be tested, train teachers in the use of the tests and personally
direct the giving and scoring of them, provided the necessary traveling expenses
are borne by the schools served.
Mental Tests.—In connection with its work in educational psychology,
the Department undertakes to assist school authorities in the diagnosis and
training of backward and gifted children. Assistance will be rendered in
the making of mental surveys and the establishment of special classes. A
clinic will be maintained for the study of cases accessible to the University
and the services of the professor in charge will be available to any community
in Virginia at the cost of the necessary test materials and traveling expenses.
Any school official desiring the services of the Bureau of Tests and
Measurements should address the Dean of the Department of Education.
BUREAU OF APPOINTMENTS.
The University of Virginia maintains a Bureau of Appointments in
charge of a committee consisting of Professors J. L. Manahan, W. R.
Smithey, J. C. Metcalf and I. F. Lewis. The services of the bureau are free
to all teachers and prospective teachers seeking positions in secondary schools
(both public and private), normal schools, and colleges. Correspondence
with regard to appointment should be addressed to the Bureau of Appointments
(J. L. Manahan, Director), University, Virginia.
PHI DELTA KAPPA FRATERNITY.
A chapter of the national honorary educational fraternity of Phi Delta
Kappa has been organized in connection with the Department of Education.
Under the constitution of the fraternity, only those students are eligible to
membership who expect to make teaching or administration of schools a permanent
vocation, and who give evidence of superior qualities of character,
scholarship and initiative. The standards of scholarship governing election
to membership in the fraternity are similar to those prescribed for election
to Phi Beta Kappa.
The purpose of the fraternity as stated in its constitution is "to develop
among the students of Education at the University of Virginia the spirit of
`Research, Service and Leadership,' " and to endeavor by every worthy means
at its command to create and foster fellowship and true fraternalism among
the members of the society.
EDUCATION CLUB.
An Education Club is conducted for the purpose of fostering a scientific
study of educational problems. Membership is open to all students taking
courses in Education, teachers, principals and superintendents now in service,
and members of the faculty of the University who are willing to lend
their influence and efforts toward placing the teaching profession in Virginia
and the South on a professional basis.
SCHOLARSHIPS.
The Virginia State Teachers' Scholarships in the Department of Education
and the College: fifty scholarships annually, each with a value of $100.
Founded in 1918 by action of the General Assembly of Virginia. The holder
must be a Virginian in need of financial assistance in order to attend the
University; and he must pledge himself to teach or engage in some other
form of public school work in Virginia for at least two years, or, failing this,
to repay to the University the full value of the scholarship. Blank forms
of application may be had upon request to Dean John L. Manahan, Chairman
of the Committee on State Teachers' Scholarships. Appointments prior
to September 1 of each year are made upon the recommendation of division
superintendents. Any scholarships unassigned on September 1 are open to
applicants from the State at large.
In addition to the Virginia State Teachers' Scholarships, there are a
number of other scholarships in the University available for students of
Education. A detailed description of them is given in the General Catalogue
of the University.
LOAN FUNDS AND STUDENT SELF-HELP.
The University is in possession of funds from which loans are made to
deserving students in need of such assistance. An account of these loans is
given in the General Catalogue. Inquiries concerning them should be addressed
to the Bursar.
Opportunities for obtaining remunerative employment are afforded to
students who are desirous by this means of partially paying their way through
the University. It is difficult to give definite assurance of employment to a
student before he reaches the University, but it may be stated that any student
with sufficient resources to carry him through the first half of the session
can be reasonably sure of obtaining work which will help defray his expenses
for the rest of the academic year. Information as to employment may
Hall, University, Virginia.
EXPENSES.
The necessary expenses of a Virginia student in the Department of Education
may be estimated at from $320 a year upward, according to the mode
of living; for students from other States, $510 upward. A fuller statement of
expenses will be found in the General Catalogue of the University.
