THE REGISTRAR, State College, Pennsylvania
SUMMER SESSION
Dr, Weber Conducts School With
Increased Attendance.
564 teachers attended the Fourth
Summer Session for Teachers dur
ing the six weeks beginning June 23
and ending August 13. 65 count
ies were represented. Every school
in the college offered courses,
given, for the most part, by the
regular teaching staff.
This marked increase of attend
ance may be attributed to a number
of causes. The enrollment is limit
ed to teachers of the Common
wealth. No other institution in the
country limits its Summer Session
to teachers. The registration fee is
only nominal, a payment of $5 ad
mitting the student to all classes,
lectures, library facilities, etc. The
high quality of teaching done.
Nearly all of the instruction is
given by members of the regular
faculty of the college. The location
of the college and its attractive and
beautiful environment offer an excel
lent opportunity to teachers to
spend six weeks of every summer
with pleasure as well as profit.
Teachers came here from all over
the State to improve their effi
ciency. Some qualified to pass the
examination for permanent certi
ficate. Some were preparing to
enter college. Others worked for
credits counting toward a college
degree.
Through the medium of the
Summer Session--and—the--C-or=
respondence Courses the equiva
lent of two years of college work
may be done. In every session
quite a number are college gradu
ates who are taking courses count
ing toward the master's degree.
Judging by the prOmising evidences
of the past, one can safely predict
that the Pennsylvania State College
Summer Session for Teachers will
soon become the largest summer
session in the State and will con
tinue to be conspicuous for the
service it renders to the teachers of
the' Commonwealth.
Fifty-third Annual Commencement
The commencement exercises of
the class of 1913 and the closing
incidents of the college are now
history, but it might be well to re
call to mind some of those incidents
which made this commencement
even better than those of fomer
years.
Pennsylvania State was especial
ly honored by the presence of
Major General Leonard Wood, U.
S. A., who acted as reviewing
officer of the Regiment of College
Cadets. Another person of foreign
distinction was our Commencement
Day speaker. M. De La Rocca,
Counsellor of the French Embassy,
Washington, D. C., who delivered
an interesting address on "Moder
ation".
Athletic events resultedin victory
in every instance except one name
ly, our baseball game with the
Chinese University of Hawaii, in
which we were defeated by a very
close score. Our musical organiza
tions gave a pleasing entertainment
and the Y. M. C. A.—Y. W. C. A.
play "Cousin Kate" was well re
ceived.
In summing up, it may be said
that the Commencement of the
Class of 1913 was very much of a
success and the College and student
body are indebted to those who
were responsible for its inception.
THE NEW TRIBUNAL
Steps were taken last spring by
the student body through the
council to provide a long needed
"court of appeal" for student
affairs—hence the committee des
cribed on another page of this
issue.
As the Collegian goes to press,
notice is brought of an apparent
misunderstanding caused by the
wording of the resolution adopted.
The new tribunal is given the
power of interpreting college cus
tom: in accordance with this power
they have met, and have announced
their interpretation, which is heal,
namely, "That indiscriminate haz
ing shall be abolished except on
one night near the beginning of the
college year, known as poste]. night,
when freshmen may be made to do
stunts, providing no bodily injury
or indecency be done; also that no
upper classman shall grant immun
ity to freshman on poster night.
Everyone should take particular
pains to acquaint themselves with
this decision, and to abide by it
absolutely.
Large Enrollment of New Men.
The Registrar belives the 1917
class enrollment will exceed 625.
The two year course has been
closed with 165 in the first year.
About thirty men with advanced
standing complete the number of
new men.
Coach Martin is anxious that all
reshmen track candidates report
for the trials, Saturday afternoon as
posted. All events will be run and
those showing sufficient ability will
probably be excused from drill for
fall practice.
Keyser 'l4, president of the asso
ciation, Dorwart 'l6, freshman
secretary, W. S. Hoffman 11, Mr.
Timothy Hughes and Mr. F. N. D.
Buchman were State's representa
tives at the training conference for
association secretaries.
