had been to hear some of the

with Mr. Medlin. And this recital
is the result of his studying.

feaching Grads
akeNew Exam
t or Evaluation
[Salem College seniors preparing
to teach will be required to take
the National Teacher Examinations
on April 9, Dean Hixson announced.
This requirement is based on a
resolution passed by the 1959 Gen
eral Assembly which makes the
tests mandatory for all college sen
iors in the State who apply for a
North Carolina teaching certificate
during the period beginning June
20, 1959, and ending February 19,
1961.
'The examinations will be given at
State expense as part of a state
wide study of teacher preparation
being made by the State Board of
Education. Other groups required
to take the tests include experienced
teachers who are currently upgrad
ing or changing their certification.
■ 1 Salem College seniors can most
conveniently take the tests at Rey
nolds High School Cafeteria. How
ever, there are twenty testing cen
ters in the State, and the tests can
be taken at any center. Applica
tions to take the tests and bulletins
describing them are available in the
Recorder’s office; students making
application must secure four items,
including forms and instructions.
Seniors unable to take the exami
nations on April 9 will have only
one opportunity to make up the
laminations on October 8, at
which time different forms of the
tests will be given.
[Seniors eligible to take the ex-
.^iinations on April 9 will receive
their scores directly from the Edu
cational Testing Service without
paying any fee. The tests yield
scores on professional knowledge,
various aspects of general educa
tion, and subject-matter prepara
tion. Scores earned on April 9 ex
aminations will have absolutely no
affect on a senior’s certificate or
employment. The tests are being
given for the Committee of the
State Board of Edccation set up
to do research on the quality of
teacher preparation.

Salem College, along with colleges
in Florida, Georgia, North Carolina,
South Carolina^ and Virginia, has
become affiliated with Duke Uni
versity in the Master of Arts in
Teaching program. This progratn
was designed to prepare junior and
senior high school teachers and pro
vides professional courses, advanced
study in the candidate’s special
field, and carefully supervised
teaching experience. At the end
of 15 months, a teaching certificate
and a master’s degree is awarded
to the students. During 9 months
of internship at one of the eight
cooperating public school systems
in North Carolina and Virginia,
salaries will be paid. Also tuition
help is offered.
This program gives college stu
dents who do not prepare profes
sionally for teaching to do so. Fur
ther information can be obtained
from the Department of Education
at Duke University.
Sophomore Test
Program Begins
The first phase of Salem’s Sopho
more Testing Program begins today
in the form of the Occupational Iri-
terest Inventory. , This inventory is
being given to 50 sophomores who
have indicated their need for vo
cational counseling.
The program is designed to in
dicate the field, the type and the
level of a girl’s interest in order
to identify the occupational area in
which she has both interests and
abilities. Additional information will
be sought the next two Fridays.
All results in conjunction with
other pertinent data about the stu- .
dent already available is used to
help each girl acquire as broad an
understanding as possible of herself
in terms of her abilities, her in
terests and her achievements. Stu
dents must remember that these
tests don’t give indications of a
specific job, but only of the general
area. This will help the student
select her major and general vo
cational interests.
This experimental program, car
ried out by the office of the Dean
of Students and the Acadeniic of
fice, is only opened to 50 girls at
this time, but it is hoped to ex
pand it in the future with the ad
dition of more staff and faculty.
