AS AIDS TO THE UNIVERSITY
Students Taking Work in the Normals
Will be Credited With it When
They Enter the University at Madd-
SON.

The legislature of 1911 authorized
the board OF regents of normal schools
to offer two years Of college work in
the different normal schools Of the
state. In keeping with this law, the
board of regents has decided to es-
tablish at once the first, or freshman,
year of the College of Letters and
Science as given at the university in
each of the eight normal schools. Be
ginning with September, 1912, the work
of the sophomore year will be added
The first obvious advantage of offer
ing two years of college work in the
normal schools is that it will bring
college education nearer to the homes
of the state. Instead of one state
school where young men and women
may begin college course, there will
now be nine--the university and the
eight normal schools. These nine
schools will bring the opportunity for
higher education within a few hours
ride of every Wisconsin home. Many
students will now be able to live at
home DURING half of their college
course, and it will be possible for the
home to retain a more direct supervi-
sion over the lives of its young people
during the most critical years of col
lege life.
A second advantage will be reduc-
tion in the cost Of college education
The establishment of college courses
in the normal schools will make it pos
sible for many young people TO get a
college training who otherwise would
be unable to do so. Not only will the
expense of travel be reduced but the
cost of living while at college will be
lower. Many ambitions and capable
boys and girls are barred from high
Ell education and the consequent sue
cess in life which such an education
would help them to attain because they
lack the financial means to attend col
lege. Living expenses in normal school
towns are relatively low. Moreover,
TIE expenses incident to school life
age not high. The administrations of
the normal schools seek to keep the
schools democratic in all their social
life
Then, too, from the standpoint of
both parents and students the relative
ly small size of the student body at
the normal school is desirable. 1t
means personal acquaintance, person
al interest, and personal assistance on
the part of teachers which one can get
only in a relatively small school, The
normal schools will extend to students
in the college course the requirements
Of attendance, standards of work, and
general conduct now in force in these
schools.
Graduates of the normal schools are
at present given two years credit at
the university. The same amount of
credit will be given those who take
two years Of college work In the
future it viii be possible for students
TO take two years of work at the nor
NAL schools, emitting the professional
subjects which are required of those
who expect to teach, and receive full
credit for the same at the university.

intention to have the plans modified so

require modification of the plans and
an increased appropriation. both of
which Mr.. Brown hopes to bring about.
