INTESES TING LETTER
From a
Student of
Normal.
the State
Monmouth, Oregon ,
Nov. 4, 1902.
Editor: I have thought a letter from
one of the students of a state Institution
of Oregon would be of interest to the
readers of the Uourler.
I entered the Slate Normal School,
located at Monmouth, at the opening of
the first semester. All the students as
sembled in the chapel located on the
second floor, at 9 a. m.
All the members of the faculty met
the students at this hour. There are
several new member of tb tacnlty this
year. All are more than satisfied with
the new president, Mr. uessier, ana ieei
confident of the success of the school
during the ensuing year and the years to
come.
It was ten o'clock when we were dis
missed from the assembly, and the rest
of the forenoon was spent in enrolling,
getting our study cards made out and
securing the signature of the instructors
to whom we were to recite. Those of
us who were fortunate enongh to get this
done during the forenoon had the after
noon to devote t buying our doohs,
getting located and becoming acquainted
with the town of Monmouth.
The coure of study is so arranged
that the student may enter as graduates
of the eighth gradu and finish in three
years, in that time completing all the
subjacts required for a state certificate,
eighteen In number and xeveral others.
Tie additional subjects are: Two
courses in Methods, History and Philoso
phy of Education, Chemistry, Astrono
my, Zoology, drawing, vocal music,
physical training and mannual training.
Bcs de the regular work of the school,
there are a number of educational factors
in the school, organized and supported
bv the students with some assixtance
from the school, authorities and the
town people. These include athletic
clubs, such as gymnastics, band ball,
basket ball, foot ball, tennis, golf, three
literary societies ; two for girls and one
for the boys; a Y. W. C. A. and a Y.
M. C. A., and musical organizations.
Membership in these student societies
is voluntary, but one ought to belong to
one or more of them.
I have intended to include in this
lettera brief description of the town, but
in my first letter must content myself in
saying that it is a beautiful little town,
located ii the heart of the Willamette
valley. The Cascade Range on one side
and the Coast Range on the other. It is
a village of about 800 inhabitants, de
voted principally to the w.rk ol
education.
There are no saloons or gambling
houses in Monmouth. In fact one could
not find a more favorable surrounding
for such a school as the Normal.
I must say in conclusion, that I am
delighted with my school and all the
instructors.
Yours Respectfully,
A Student from Clackamas County.
