ID. {. COLLEGE
Retains Course

District School Supt. Hobart
M. Corning said today that Dis
trict Teachers College will con-
tinue to offer graduate courses.
despite the recent refusal of
Congress to allow the college
to offer the masters degree.
He said it is "a great disap-
pointment" that a House Dis
trict subcommittee several
weeks ago had turned down a
bill authorizing the issuance of
the higher degree. But he said
he plans to renew his plea to
Congress for the authorization.
The college, which is the
Districts biggest single source
of new teachers for the city's
public schools. was ordered last
year by the Board of Educa-
ton to set up a graduate school.
1t already offers the bache-
lor's degree, which is required
of teacher candidates in Dis
trict elementary and junior
high schools. But District high
school teachers must have mas
ter's degrees.
"All possible steps will be
taken by the president and
faculty Of the college," DR..
Corning said. Ito make sure
that all students understand
that. while they may take the
courses offered (by the new
graduate SCHOOL,, the granting
OF the masters degree will de-
pend on the legislative APP
proval Of the Congress-"
The college already has en-
rolled more than 300 students
for the term beginning Septem-
Der 9, and many of the new
graduate students have been
besieging the college for a clari-
fication of the degree situation.
