THE STATE COLLEGE
SUMMER SESSION


aries and more congenial work by
attending summer school. The Sum
mer Session of the State College of
Washington offers unusual oppor-
tunities for such advancement dur
ing the six weeks from June - to
July II, in climate that makes
study far easier than in the more
humid sections of the country. Cool
nights for sleep. days that are never
excessively hot, and an elevation of
1000 feet, help to send you back to
work in the fall renewed in body as
well as spirit.
All students qualified to pursue
the courses to advantage are admit
ted. Those who desire college credit
toward a degree must satisfy the
regular entrance requirements and
matriculate as they would in other
sessions. A statement showing the
kind and amount of work completed
during the summer will be given on
request.
Expenses are not high, the tuition
for all courses Except that for min
isters) being $500. Courses requir-
ing laboratory work, as in chemistry,
botany, home economics and dairy
ing, have small additional fees. The
money paid for tuition enables the
college to engage prominent experts
in various lines.
| Prominent men and women have
been secured for special courses in
the departments of Education, Home
Economics and Manual Arts, as we'll
as for the school for Rural Pastors
which is conducted for two weeks of
the session. There will be courses
of special value to school superin-
tendents and principals, given by sue
cessful superintendent, who will
make thorough survey of the cur
riculum, take up problems of super
vision, and present methods of max
ing educational measurements.
For those interested in athletics
| Professor j. F. Boiler will have a
number of courses in physical eda-
cation, and he and Harry A. Apple
quist, assistant football coach, will
| have charge of the coaching work
Last year there were &c young men
| football coaches and athletic direct
ors in high schools, or students pre-
pairing for such positions, who took
this work, and subsequent reports
showed their consequent success.
Those who have never learned to
swim will have a chance to do so in
the swimming pool in the gymnasium
where there is also complete equip
ment for apparatus work and Gales
/ thentics. Various tennis courts, a
half-mile running track with a 220-
yard "straight-away," and baseball
diamonds are included in the oppor-
tunities for athletic instruction and
sports.
Although most of the Summer SEES
sion is that which counts toward the
Bachelors Degree, there are also
courses giving credit accepted toward
the Masters Degree. These are of
special value to teachers and stu
dents who lack only few credits for
graduation or the higher degree.
Basing the work on the study of
economic plants, DR.. F. l.. Pickett
will conduct botany classes of spe-
cial interest to teachers, including
the collection of plants. Those wish
ing an Introductory course in bacter-
iology and those who desire to com
plete the required work in that de-
partment for home economics are al
so offered special work in the science
laboratories.
Many will find it profitable as
well as an interesting feature of their
vacation program if they include in
their schedules the course in the
care and operation of automobiles.
Harry Nash, an expert in his line,
will again have charge of the work,
making it flexible enough to meet
the needs of people of varying ex-
perience in the care of an automobile.
Special stress on the requirements
of teachers of agriculture is given in
the work offered in the agricultural
division, in which several courses
will be scheduled.
The demand for teachers of com
mercial subjects gives value to the
instruction in such work, where those
who wish to prepare themselves may
develop speed and teaching ability IN
shorthand and typewriting, as well
as fit themselves to conduct classes
in accounting. An instructor fam1l-
lar with the manual arts work in the
best schools of the country will give
courcac in the organization of man
