Description: 28 STATE NORMAL SCHOOL.5. Observation and Practice in the Training Schools.—Stu¬
dents are required to observe until they can accurately report
and interpret the meaning of each exercise
to practice teach¬
ing under criticism until they can plan and conduct recitations
and manage classes efficiently.6. Successful undergraduates obtain good situations at good
wages.7. Graduates are commanding from $50 to $140 per month.8. The diploma of the Normal School is, by law of the
State, equivalent to a State certificate, relieving the holder from
county examinations.9. No student will be admitted to the Normal School who
does not intend, in good faith, to qualify himself or herself to
teach in the public schools of the State.10. It is important that every student expecting to attend
the Normal School should be present the first day of the term,
that all may be examined at once and classified. 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.11. Every student admitted to the Institution will be
required to give satisfactory evidence of a good moral character,
and of fair intellectual 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.12. 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 a teacher, he or she will be kindly advised to
withdraw from the school and seek some other occupation.13.™ Those desiring other information respecting the Normal
School, than that contained in this Catalogue, are requested to
