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.
In the spring of 1928 plans were matured to provide more adequate facilities
for observation, practice teaching, and experimental studies. The school authorities
of the City of Charlottesville and the County of Albemarle joined with the
University of Virginia in establishing a program of experimental education and
teacher-training. After the preliminary program of organization had been approved,
the General Education Board of New York City granted to the University
a subsidy of $20,000 a year for a period of two years to forward the program
and make possible its operation for the session of 1928-29. The Rector and
Visitors of the University made a supplementary appropriation of $5,000 annually
for a period of two years, thereby giving the Department additional funds amounting
to $50,000 for the biennium, 1928-1930.
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. The Department of Education,
therefore, aims to provide the following:
1. An opportunity for the study of Education as an important function of
society.
2. To give the necessary technical training for teaching and administration to:
a. University students, with or without experience, who intend to teach;
b. Secondary school principals;
c. Normal school teachers and administrators;
d. College teachers of Education;
e. School superintendents, supervisors, and other executives of schools
of all grades in cities, counties, and states.
3. To develop scientific methods of testing school work and to furnish demonstrations
of the way in which these methods may best be applied, thus developing
a spirit of observation and experimentation tending to increase our knowledge of
the science and art of education.
4. To become a center of educational influence to which teachers of all grades
and kinds may come for information and educational guidance.
5. To furnish to the general public information on any phase of school organization,
administration, and supervision, thus helping to create a clearer general
understanding about Education and the State.
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.
Adequate provision is made for a Departmental library, seminar rooms, classrooms,
psychological laboratory, and offices for the administrative officers and
teaching staff of the Department.
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
2,000 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 $3,000 from Mr. Alfred W.
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 the University 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.
Women planning to enter the Department of Education after completing the
two years of work required for admission should choose, during the two years,
courses corresponding to the University courses recommended for students at the
University during the same period. The Dean will welcome conferences with such
students before they begin training elsewhere.
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 professional courses receive
a certificate which will entitle them to the Collegiate Professional Certificate
issued by the State Department 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.
An applicant who has regularly attended a secondary school until he is
entrance units, will not be accepted as a special student.
(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 thirty session-hours
of academic work required of women for admission to regular standing.
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, Mathematics
A1, German A1, French A1, Spanish A1, Italian A1. 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
twelve 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 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 fifteen
session-hours may be granted for one year of college work, and thirty-three hours
for two years.
In general, credit will not be granted for work completed elsewhere with the
lowest passing grade, if the grades are given as letters, or with a grade below
75 per cent., if the grades are given as percentages.
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 10. 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
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,

ADMISSION BY CERTIFICATE
For admission by certificate from a secondary school the applicant should
file with the Dean of the University, not later than September 1, a certificate of
must come from an accredited public high school or from an accredited
private secondary school. For admission from an institution of collegiate rank,
an official transcript of the applicant's record, made out on the form used by the
institution in question, must be submitted. In addition, each applicant, whether
from a secondary school or a college, must submit a formal application for
admission, on a blank form supplied by the University.
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 secondary-school work
of standard grade, covering at least fifteen entrance units.
An applicant for admission from a secondary school which requires a special
grade for recommendation to college must have made the grade required by his
school or must have ranked in the upper three-quarters of his class.
In every case an applicant must have the general recommendation of the
principal of his 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. Schools outside of Virginia which are fully accredited by their own
state universities or institutions of equal rank, by their own state departments of
education or by recognized regional associations of secondary schools, are also
accredited by the University.
Certificate credit for any entrance unit is invalidated by subsequent failure in
a college entrance examination on the unit in question.
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; and they are
held only on the dates given in the Program of Entrance Examinations. A fee
of one dollar is charged for each examination taken. This fee is payable in
advance and is in no case returned.
The entrance examinations of the University are similar, in many respects,
to those of the College Entrance Examination Board. The University does not
furnish copies of its entrance examinations.
Official records of the examinations of the College Entrance Examination
Board or of the University of the State of New York may be submitted in lieu
of taking entrance examinations here.

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 any 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,
of Education 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
without excuse from the term examination, will be automatically excluded from
the course.
(II) Probation:
(1) A student placed on fifteen-hour probation must pass on at least six
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 fifteen-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 twelve-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 twelve-hour probation must pass on at least six
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 twelve-hour probation whose
average grade on all his courses is at least 75 per cent., may take up three additional
session-hours and be absolved from probation.
(3) A first-year student on nine-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 nine-hour probation must pass on six 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 nine-hour probation whose average grade on all his
courses is at least 75 per cent., may take up three additional session-hours and be
placed on twelve-hour probation for the term next ensuing. A student on nine-hour
probation who passes on all his courses may take up six 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 twelve session-hours, is put on twelve-hour
probation for the term next ensuing, unless his average grade on the remaining
twelve session-hours is at least 75 per cent. In this case he may take up three
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
be on the same footing as regards probation as is a student who made less than
65 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 nine session-hours, (a) will be put on nine-hour
probation, unless his average grade on his remaining nine session-hours is at
least 75 per cent., in which case he may take up three additional session-hours and
be put on twelve-hour probation, or, (b) if he be other than a first-year student
he will be suspended unless he has passed on at least three 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 six session-hours, will be
suspended at the end of the term. Any first-year student left with only six session-hours
will be suspended at the end of the term unless he has passed on at least
three session-hours. In this case he will be required to take up three additional
session-hours and be put on nine-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 nine session-hours of his work,
will be put on fifteen-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 fifteen-hour probation if, at the time of his withdrawal, he
was (a) on probation, or (b) passing on less than nine session-hours of his work.
A student previously suspended will, if readmitted to the Department, be placed
on fifteen-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 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 75 per cent., but not below 65 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 15.
(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 re-examination
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 anywhere else. 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 drunkennes, or of other conduct reflecting serious discredit upon the
University.
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.
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,
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 50
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.
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 85 per cent., and with no session
grade less than 75 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 85 per cent., on at least fifteen
session-hours per term and receives no term grade less than 75 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 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.

Students may meet the requirements of the West Law by taking Education
B12 (School Hygiene and Sanitation) during any session, but it is recommended
that the work be taken during the third or fourth year.
TRAINING OF ELEMENTARY SUPERVISORS
Students preparing for elementary school supervision must have (1) previous
training equivalent to that required for the Virginia Normal Professional Certificate,
and (2) at least two years of successful teaching experience in elementary
schools attested by letters of recommendation from division superintendents of
schools under whom the teaching was done.
It is a general requirement in connection with Education B4 that students
shall be present for the opening of the schools in Albemarle County for the
purpose of studying the problems of school organization. The schools usually open
during the first week in September.
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.
TEACHERS' CERTIFICATES
A resolution of the State Board of Education provides that on and after
September 1, 1929, the minimum qualifications for those persons beginning to
teach in an accredited high school shall be a baccalaureate degree from a standard
four-year college.
In accordance with the above regulations it will not be necessary after
Certificate. The new requirement for high school teachers will not be retroactive.
SUGGESTED TEACHING COMBINATIONS FOR SECONDARY
TEACHERS
The State Board of Education has revised the program of studies for the
high schools of the State and has prepared a suggested plan for the assignment
of subjects to teachers. The subject combinations recommended for which training
is offered at the University of Virginia are as follows:
1. English and Foreign Language. (Latin or French.)
2. Mathematics and Science.
3. History and one of the following:
English, Language, Mathematics, and Science.
4. Physical Education.
It is generally recognized that the success of the revised high school program,
especially that phase of it which has to do with the assignment of subjects to
teachers, is dependent to a large extent upon an adequate supply of instructors
trained to teach the combinations of subjects as provided for above. Students are
directed in the choice of courses during their period of training to insure their
meeting the requirements for at least one of the teaching combinations.
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.
OBSERVATION AND DIRECTED TEACHING
Facilities for observation and directed teaching and for practical educational
research are made available through the coöperation with the University of the
school systems of the City of Charlottesville and the County of Albemarle. Beginning
with the session of 1928-29 the administrative boards of these three units are
operating a coöperative plan of experimental education and teacher-training under
the following:

critic teachers and departmental supervisors; three high school principals; two
of these are given faculty standing at the University.
The Director of Supervision of Secondary Education serves the City, the
County, and the University, and his salary is provided by the three units.
DUTIES OF THE DIRECTOR OF SUPERVISION OF SECONDARY
EDUCATION
The duties of the director of supervision of secondary education embodied in
the coöperative agreement are:
1. To act as an advisor to high school principals with reference to administrative
practices which are directly concerned with making provisions for efficient
instruction including such as:
(a) Teacher assignment to duty.

units which shall be a statement of coöperative activities and a survey of
educational progress in the secondary schools.
6. To share with the Professor of Secondary Education the assignment and
general direction of graduate students making special studies in secondary education
which are conducted through the public schools as laboratories.
7. To direct studies of instructional efficiency in the secondary schools for
the information of the administrative officials.
8. To rate teachers for the information of the administrative officers concerned.
CRITIC TEACHERS AND DEPARTMENTAL SUPERVISORS
Of the eight departmental supervisors and critic teachers, six are assigned to
the Charlottesville High School, and two to the high schools of Albemarle County.
Their duties are as follows:
1. Act as general departmental supervisor in the subject-matter field of his
assignment.
2. Teach two regular classes in the high school of which he is a member of
the teaching staff, such as shall be assigned by the Director of Supervision acting
in agreement with the principal of the high school and division superintendent of

DUTIES OF THE RURAL SUPERVISORS
The coöperative program between the University and the County of Albemarle
made possible the employment of two superior rural supervisors, bringing the
supervisory staff for elementary schools to five. These two supervisors, in addition
to supervising all elementary schools in the districts assigned to them, direct
the training of rural supervisors.
In order that there may be adequate opportunity for experimentation in one-room
schools two schools within easy reach of the University have been chosen
for special study and demonstration by the rural supervisors. It is hoped that the
record of achievement in these two schools may serve as an example and stimulus,
not only to the schools of the county, but of a much wider area.
SECONDARY EDUCATION IN VIRGINIA
The Department of Education publishes under the editorship of Dr. W. R.
Smithey, Professor of Secondary Education, a high school quarterly called Secondary
Education in Virginia, devoted to the encouragement of research in Virginia
secondary school problems for both public and private schools and to the
reporting of research through its columns. This publication is the official organ
of the Department of Education, and addressed primarily to the solution of problems
of secondary education in Virginia and its columns are open to all workers
in this field. It aims to encourage educational research in secondary education.
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
courses passed by the candidate and must give his grades. 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 1929.
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 work for which college
credit is desired. Blanks for this purpose will be mailed upon application.
First Term begins June 7th and ends July 27th. Second Term begins July
29th and ends August 30th.
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 30th, 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 service 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, Freeman J. Daniels, Secretary, Room D, Peabody
Hall, 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
year. Information as to employment may be obtained from the Secretary of the
Committee on Student Help, Madison Hall, University, Virginia.
EXPENSES
The figures in the following table may be taken as fairly accurate approximations
of all necessary expenses for a session of nine months. The necessary expenses
included here are university and tuition fees, laboratory fees, lodging,
board, laundry, and books, but not clothing, traveling expenses, or pocket money.
Three estimates are given—a low, an average, and a liberal estimate. The differences
in the three depends on the difference of expenditure for board, lodging,
books, and laundry—in other words, on the scale of living of the individual student.
The student who shares a room with another student, and practices the strictest
economy, may possibly reduce expenses below the low estimate.
