of education in the State of Michigan
inquiring as to the degree the certi6-
cation of teachers of that state is in
dorsed in Vermont, and also the re-
uuirements in Vermont for life GER
tifcate for teaching. In Michigan a
teacher may procure a life certificate
provided he or she can pass an exam

schools are recognized and allowed
to teach without examination but to

to hold two first grade certificates
covering FIVE years each, requiring at
least 200 weeks experience in teach
ing before the life certificate is
granted. College graduates receive
the two five year certificates with
