COLLEGE AND NORMAL GRADUATES
THE DISCRIMINATION WHICH THE NEW
YORK SCHOOL LAW MAKES IN
FAVOR OF THE LATTER.
To the Editor OF The Tribune.

FAVOR OF THE LATTER
To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: May I call attention through your valued
columns TO the discrimination which the State OF
New York makes In it's school law against It's
college graduates? The subject is a very mpor-
tant one and does not seem TO have gained
much public attention but under the present
law graduate Of an academy can obtain GER
tiicate enabling him to teach in the schools OF
this State on the same terms substantially as
college graduate. Little or no account seems TO
be made In the low for the development result
ing from four years Of collegiate study ana the
maturity thus gained The emphasis IS placed
rather upon few weeks Of training IN pedagogy
and the other subjects which make up the cur
riculunl. Of n training class. A student may en-
ter any Of the normal schools Of the state ana
after a general education mingled WIN cons'n-
cradle general normal training may receive III
ploma which entities him to teach for life in the
schools ~ the state. and yet the education ne
tas received is not to be compared for a mo-
ment with that given in any Of our colleges IN
deed. 50 far as a general education is con-
cerned the normal schools Of this state 40 no
more than prepare their students FOR the FRESH
man work in our better institutions.
In other words. We seem TO he placing empha-

the Superintendent ~ Education down. are ear

are Interested in better education to look these
laws in the face and 10 ask what they are due
to? Can Il he that our Legislators have peen
somewhat msled by the large local and pollticai

by the present law our State discounts. ana IN
