Description: 24STATE NORMAL SCLLOOL.Those who enter a few days after the beginning of a term, take,
in their examination, the time of teachers which should be given to
instruction.Besides, those who are tardy at entering, find it difficult to make
up lost lessons.6. Students are admitted, and new classes formed at the begin¬
ning of each term
but, in future, no student will, as a rule, be
admitted to a new class thus formed, who shall not present himself
for examination within two weeks from the beginning of a term.7. Every student admitted to the Institution will be required to
give satisfactory evidence of good moral character, and of fair intel¬
lectual abilities.The personal appearance and the conduct of the individual,
together with a letter from some responsible citizen of known
integrity, to whom the bearer is personally known, will be taken as
evidence in reference to character.8. After reasonable trial, if a student shows lack of ability, or
of application, or of moral character to achieve fair success as a
student and teacher, lie or slie will be kindly advised to withdraw
from the school and seek some other occupation.9. Students are admitted for one term-10. For the benefit of those teachers who can attend the Normal
School but one term, and whose maturity of mind and scholarship 
qualify them to receive it, a special course of study and of instruc¬
tion in methods of Teaching, and in the principles of organizing,
classifying, and managing schools, will be planned at the beginning
of each fall and each spring term. This course will be such as shall
meet the wants of the classes entering at the time.11. Those desiring other information respecting the Normal
School, than that contained in this Catalogue, are requested to write
to the President.12. No adequate idea of either the matter or the method of
instruction in this institution can be conveyed on paper.13. Students should bring with them whatever standard text¬
books they have upon the subjects pursued, for the purpose of
reference.The Syllabuses commencing on the next page are printed for the
purpose of conveying some idea of the subject matter of instruction,
and of the order of it.
