Advance Students In Teacher Class Slighted Is Claim Lincoln, Neb. U.R) Gradu ate colleges fail to give sufficient preparation for the teaching profession to students working for advanced degrees, according to Chancellor C. S. Boucher of the University of Nebraska. Most persons who receive Ph.D. degrees become teachers, the chancellor noted. Neverthe less, he said, graduate school administrators insist that the degree be one in research. The result of this system, Boucher said, is that the student who receives the degree never again pursues his research study, despite the years which he de voted to it. ( "And almost no specific train ing is given for the type of activity he will follow the rest of his life," the chancellor said. The graduate schools are guilty of "overspecializing," ac cording to the Nebraska educa tor. He called for improve ment in all phases of college teaching lectures, work sheets, manuals, handbooks, laboratory equipment, maps, charts, educa tional moving pictures, and the outline of courses.
