RESOLUTIONS PASSED.
The following recommendations and res
olutions were passed:
We recommend that the state normal school
at Winona be authorized to issue suitable
diplomas to graduates from the kndergar-
ten training course, as established at that
school, provided
First-That this training course shall in its
scope and thoroughness be fully equal to the
kindergarten training course in Eastern
schools
Secondhand no pupil shall be admitted to
this course who has not completed the acad-
emic work of the elementary course.
Third-That the same authority be granted
to the normal schools at Mankato and st.
Cloud whenever they shall establish similar
kindergartens and kindergarten training
courses.
Resolved. That it is thecdesire of the mem
bers of the state normal board to take advant-
age of the opportunity afforded by this, their
first regular meeting since the return of the
Hon. Thomas Simpson, the former resident
director at Winona, to express their high
esteem Of his services to the normal schools
Of the state During the long period of his
connection with these schools, dating from
their establishment, he has been always and I'M
der all circumstances loyal to their interests,
and his efforts to obtain for them that recog-
milton and support which their Importance
to the public school system of the state enti-
ties them to, has been SO well directed and
has been presented with SO much clearness
and earnestness as to secure results of which
the schools will reap the benefits for years to
come. Not only of Mr.. Simpsons labors
officially rendered do the members of this
board wish to express their high appreciation,
but they also desire to place on record an ex-
preston Of their kindly recollections of the
uniform courtesy which marked his relations
with them, as their president, during the six
teen years he occupied that position.
