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
some of the leading authorities on school architecture in this country. 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 $3000 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,
a complete file of publications of the United States Bureau 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.

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,


6

Page 6
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
qualifying examination in English before his registration can be completed.
This examination will be held on Monday of the first week of the session.

Any student who fails to maintain a reasonable standard of English in
all of his college work will be required to take an additional course in English
composition or to repeat a course in order to make up his deficiency.

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.

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


7

Page 7
passed as a resident student in the College of Arts and Sciences, 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 8. 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.

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, Problems
in School Administration; Education C3, Problems in Elementary School
Supervision; Education C4, Problems in High School Administration; Education
C5, Problems in High School Supervision; Education C6, Mental
Measurement; Education D1, Seminar in Educational Psychology; Education
D2, Seminar in School Administration; and Education D3, Seminar in
Secondary Education.

ADMISSION BY CERTIFICATE

For admission by certificate, the applicant should file with the Dean of
the University not later than September 1, a Certificate of Preparation, made
out on the blank form furnished by the University. This certificate must


9

Page 9
come from a recognized institution of collegiate rank, from an accredited
public high school, or from an accredited private secondary school.

The candidate for admission from a public high school must be a full
graduate of an accredited four-year high school.

The candidate for admission from a private secondary school must be
a full graduate of the school, or must present a certificate showing that he
has completed at least the equivalent of four years of satisfactory high-school
work of standard grade, covering at least fifteen entrance units.

In every case the candidate for admission must make at least the grade
required by the School for recommendation to the college, and must have the
general recommendation of the principal of the certifying school.

The university accredits all four-year public high schools and all private
secondary schools which are fully accredited by the State Board of Education
of Virginia. The Dean of the University is further authorized to accept
certificates from schools outside Virginia, accredited by their own state
universities or institutions of equal rank, or by their own state departments
of education, provided the courses of study offered in such schools meet the
requirements demanded of accredited schools in this state.

Certificates of preparation from private tutors will in no case be accepted;
students thus prepared must in all cases pass the entrance examinations.

ADMISSION BY EXAMINATION

For admission by examination, the candidate must present himself at
the University in June or in September, according to the dates given in the
Program of Entrance Examinations. The examinations are held under the
honor system, no paper being accepted unless accompanied by the usual
pledge. All candidates who take their examinations at the times appointed
are tested free of charge. In case of delayed entrance, where the grounds
of postponement are good, the President of the University may admit the
candidate to a special examination, for which a fee of five dollars is charged.
This fee is payable in advance, and is in no case returned.

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 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 Department of Education
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 Faculty.

Physical Training is not counted in the maximum and minimum requirements
detailed above.

(3) Grade.—The grade of a 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
regularity of the student's attendance upon the lectures (and laboratory or
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 per 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 65 per cent., or who
discontinues the course without the permission of the Dean, or who is absent


11

Page 11
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 Department of Education. 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 first-year student on 12-hour probation must make an average of
at least 65 per cent. on all of his courses, or else be suspended from the
Department. Any other student 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 Department. 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 first-year student on 9-hour probation must make an average of
at least 70 per cent. on all his courses, or else be suspended from the Department.
Any other 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 the Department. A student on 9-hour probation whose average
grade on all its 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 Department. 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 Department.

(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
probation[1] for the term next ensuing, unless his average grade on the remaining
12 session-hours is at least 75 per cent. In this case he may take
up 3 additional session-hours and escape probation. A first-year student excluded
from a course under (I) during the first term, however, is not to be
put on probation during the rest of the first term. At the end of the first


12

Page 12
term such a student is to be on the same footing as regards probation as is
a student who made less than 50 per cent. on one of his courses at the end
of the first term.

(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 readmitted
to the Department, 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 or 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
on account of illness may not be a member of any student organization


13

Page 13
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 Department 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 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 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 Department 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
informed of the objections to his conduct and afforded an opportunity of
explanation and defense.


14

Page 14

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 for 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 organizations.
No student on Probation may receive a leave of absence except for imperative cause.


15

Page 15

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 examinations, except for
very grave reasons, or unless the applicant is passing in all his courses.

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

COLLEGIATE PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATE

Recipients of the Bachelor of Science in Education will receive the Collegiate
Professional Certificate, the highest form of certificate for high-school
teachers issued by the State Board of Education. This certificate is valid for
ten years, renewable for a similar period, and entitles the holder to teach in
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


21

Page 21
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.

OBSERVATION AND DIRECTED TEACHING

Laboratory facilities for observation and directed teaching and for practical
research in Secondary Education are made available through the co-operation
of the school systems of the city of Charlottesville, the county of
Albemarle, and the city of Winchester. Students of the Department of Education
will do observation and directed teaching in the high school of the
city of Charlottesville under the supervision of critic teachers selected from
the city high school staff and the supervisor of instruction who is Assistant
Professor of Secondary Education in the University of Virginia.

The schools of the city of Charlottesville and the city of Winchester are
also available for practical research and experimentation in the fields of
school administration, secondary education and educational psychology.
Certain well-qualified students will be assigned special problems to study
under the direction of the Superintendent of Schools and the Education
faculty.

The schools of the city of Charlottesville are organized on the prevailing
7 — 4 plan of the State of Virginia and afford an accessible working laboratory
which reflects the actual working conditions in high schools of the
State.

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. The
supervision of the county schools is under the direction of the county superintendent
and three full time supervisors.

Arrangements have been made with the Superintendent and School
Board of the City of Charlottesville for members of the Faculty of the Department
of Education to direct such studies in the fields of Educational
Psychology, Secondary Education and School Administration as shall be
requested by the Superintendent of City Schools.

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.

The new school plant in Winchester, 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


22

Page 22
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
laboratories and science lecture rooms; sewing and cooking laboratories with
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.

These arrangements give to students in the Department of Education
an excellent opportunity to study the problems of school organization and
administration.

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 in 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 degree 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 or an equivalent time 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 1928.

All persons who are looking forward ultimately to taking a degree
through summer work are urgently requested to file with the Dean of the
Summer Quarter an official statement of their entrance requirements and


23

Page 23
work for which college credit is desired. Blanks for this purpose will be
mailed upon application.

First Term begins June 18th and ends July 28th. Second Term begins
July 30th and ends August 31st.

In order to provide for the increasing number of students who complete
the requirements for their degrees during the Summer Quarter, a
convocation exercise will be held Friday evening, August 31st, at 8 o'clock,
when the degrees will be conferred.

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 Manahan, Windes, Smithey,
Metcalf and 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


24

Page 24
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


25

Page 25
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
be obtained from the Secretary of the Committee on Student Help, Madison
Hall, University, Virginia.

EXPENSES

The necessary expenses of a Virginia student in the Department of Education
may be estimated at from $370 a year upward, according to the mode
of living; for students from other States, $545 and upward.
