with the state university for the prop
er recognition Of work done when the
transfer of credits is desired. Dean
Shumway, who is chairman of the
University committee, has written
President M. w. Deputy that the
committee is willing to have an early
meeting with the State college board
for the purpose of working out the
new relations that the Teachers col
lCge Will now have with the Univer-
sity. 1t is us opinion that any of the
foregoing courses. which are of col
lege rank, should apply as Junior
college credits. Some of the other
State colleges have already had this
arrang ement with the University
and it is reasonable to expect that
the ,Bemidji college will now assume
the same standing.
Under a previous ARRANGEMENT
with the University. those who COM
plete the regular tWo-year teacher
training course in any of the State
