 PREFATORY REMARKS.
HE SUMMER SCHOOL of the State College of Kentucky
  invites to its halls and laboratories any earnest student who
desires during the summer vacation to pursue any of the
various courses herein otrtered. Attention is called to the announce-
ments of these Eve schools offering as they do more than thirty
courses of instruction. The laboratories of State College, chemical,
physical, and mechanical, excelling as they do all other such labora-
tories in the state, will thus be opened to all students in Kentucky
or adjoining states at a time when they may take advantage ot them. -
The Summer School for Teachers and the School of Liberal Arts
offer unusual opportunities for teachers, college students, or those
preparing for college.
The College, with its commodious dormitories for both men and
women, situated in broad, shady, well-kept grounds, just within the
_ southern limits of the city of Lexington, is an ideal place to spend
a summer vacation.
The rooms of the dormitories are free of rent to all students of
the Summer School. Those expecting to use these rooms should pro-
vide themselves with the necessary bed linen and such covers as they
l may need. Men also furnish their own matresses. Table board may
be had for two or three dollars a week.
All the schools begin the tenth of June. The length of term, and
the fees charged, vary with the diiierent schools and may be found
in the announcements which follow.

i _ OBJECT. .
At the annual meeting of the Trustees of the State College of Ken-
tucky, held in December, 1902, the Kentucky State Summer School for
Teachers was established and placed under the direction of the Depart-
ment of Pedagogy of the College. The sole object of the Summer School
is to prepare teachers for more effective work in the public schools of
Kentucky. Its success during the four years of its existence has demon-
strated its usefulness in the field in which it operates. It is, therefore, no
longer an experiment. It has come to stay and will open its doors annually _
to those who wish to enter and pursue its courses of study.  
LOCATION. Q
For a century Lexington has been known far and near as the
educational cenler of Kentucky. Here an educational atmosphere is prev-  
alent at all times. The best citizens are deeply interested in the students I
of the colleges and show them every courtesy possible. One of the largest  
and handsomest city libraries in the State is open to them without cost.  
Handsome churches of all the leading denominations open their doors  
to students, and not only invite, but solicit their attendance. In Lexington i

 1 l`

 V l
  4 State College Summer School. i
i are to be found many of the most magnificent buildings in the State, and
t in the county nearby are many of the Enest estates in the world. Fayette
{ County now has the best system of roads in the world. All these and the
Q many places of deep historic interest surrounding Lexington go to make up
Q environments that cannot be surpassed for real educational influence upon
  those who come within their reach.
 * A 1 M s.
  The aims of the Summer School for Teachers are as follows:
{ 1. To prepare teachers to pass successfully all examinations for County
 ` Certificate, State Certificate, and State Diploma. This requires a thorough
  and comprehensive knowledge of the branches contained in the curriculum; ,
Q therefore, searching reviews in all these branches will be conducted by
 _ teachers who are experts in their respective lines.
  2. To give to teachers such instruction and training in educational
‘ method and school management as will prepare them to do the most effec-
; tive work in their schools. The science of education and the art of teaching
  will receive special attention in a course of lectures extending throughout
  the term.
Q ’ 3. To offer to teachers the very best opportunities for selfiniprovement
' at a time when they are not engaged in teaching and at a cost so low as to
i be easily within the reach of all.
l _ LENGTH OF TERM.
The Summer School for Teachers will open on Monday, june the 10th,
` and continue six weeks. Special axamimzliarzs for Sizzle Ccrtyimle and
Slale Dzplama will bc held al the clam by the lezzchcrs in chzzggrr.
i COURSES OF STUDY. I
1 I. For Cazmly C`erl{;iczzte.—Searching reviews of all the common  
l school branches will be made, and extensive drills will be given in order to
  make sure that all who take this course shall be prepared to pass success- 1
} fully any county examination. Classes in Arithmetic, Grammar, Composi- "
 { tion, U. S. History, Civil Government, Geography, Physiology, and
Theory and Practice of Teaching will meet and recite every day of the
term. A class in miscellaneous work comprising drills in diacritics, prin-
, ciples of reading and of writing will be organized and will meet as often as ‘
A may be necessary to accomplish the desired results. The term will close .
just in time for those who study here to go home and take the county f
examination on july 19th and 20th. I

 I
I
State College Summer School. 5
II. For State Cert@€cat¢.—Classes in Higher Arithmetic, Algebra, ?
English and American Literature, and Psychology will be organized on the
first day of the term and pushed with the utmost vigor until the close.
Teachers who hold tirst·class County Certificates and have some knowledge
of Algebra and Literature can prepare for State Certificate in one term of
the Summer School. An act of the recent General Assembly of Kentucky,
approved March 21st, 1906, authorizes this College to issue State Certificates
to persons who complete this course of study. IN ACCORDANCE WITH THAT
ACT AN EXAMINATION WILL BE HELD AT THE CLOSE OF THE SUMMER
SCHOOL.  
III. For State Dz;z>Z0ma.——Classes in Plane Geometry, Elementary
Physics, Latin Grammar, and Caesar will be organized to accommodate
I those who desire to prepare for examination for State Diploma. Teachers
who hold State Certificates and in addition have some knowledge of Latin
and Geometry are advised to enter this course. T0 PERSONS WH0 COM-
PLETE THIS COURSE THE COLLEGE IS AUTHORIZED TO ISSUE LIFE CERTIFI-
CATES TO TEACH IN ANY SCHOOL IN THE STATE.
I V. Course in Free-hand Drawi¢1g.—The importance of this subject
to teachers is becoming more and more recognized every year. All first-
class graded schools now require Drawing to be taught in every grade.
Rural schools are beginning to follow the example. For this reason we
have added Free-hand Drawing to the curriculum this year.
V. Course in Nature Stua’y.—Tl1e green-house and the scientific
laboratories of the College offer a most excellent opportunity for Nature
Study. The particular line of work decided upon for this summer is that
which pertains to the propagation and culture of a large number of plants.
A practical horticulturist will give instruction in this subject and many
interesting and important lessons will be given. The work will be done in
the College green—housc and will be exceedingly practical.
l CREDIT FOR WORK COMPLETED IN SUMMER SCHOOL.
The Department of Pedagogy in the College offers two courses of study
_ each of which leads to a degree. One leads to the degree of Bachelor of
` Arts in Pedagogy and the other to Bachelor of Science in Pedagogy. Work
completed in the Summer School will be accredited for its full value towards
V either of these degrees.
  FREE LODGING.
Women who attend the Summer School will be furnished with elegant
I rooms in Patterson Hall (the College home for women), free of charge.

   ` `  =
6 State College Summer School. é
This building is one of the best of its kind in the South. It is surrounded, l
by a beautiful lawn and is supplied with electric lights, bath-rooms, and, in
fact, every modern convenience, and all is offered jhu by the State College
_ to students in the Summer School. Excellent table board will be served in
  the dining-room of Patterson Hall at $3.00 per week.
{ Men who attend the Summer School will be provided with comfortable
" rooms, FREE OF RENT, in. one of the dormitories for men on the College
 ` campus. They can secure good table board within easy reach of the dormi- l
  tory at rates varying from $2.00 to $3.00 per week.
* All students furnish their own towels, pillow-cases, sheets and bed-
  covers; men furnish their own mattresses.
FEES.
a A single fee of six dollars will be collected from each person at the
~ time of registration. This pays for the full course and no other fee what-
ever will be charged. No rebates will be made on account of absence.
. SAVES INSTITUTE EXPENSES.  
T An act of the General Assembly, approved March 21st, 1906, provides
  that teachers who attend the State Summer School at least four weeks shall
  not be required to attend any County Teachers’ Institute the same year.
l’ Certificates of attendance will be issued at the close. (See third page of `
ll cover).
  . TOTAL COST. l
  From the above statement it is easily seen that the total cost of attend-  
  ing the Summer School need not exceed the following :
1 Fee .................................................,......... .$ 6 00
ij Room Rent Free .................. . ....................... 0 00
it Board for six weeks at $2.00 to $3.00 ..... . ........ 12 00 to $18 OO
  Total ............... . ................................ $18 00 to $24 00
  This does not include cost of laundry or books.
  TEACHERS' BUREAU.
3 In january, 1906, a teachers‘ bureau of appointments was opened in
§ connection with the Normal Department. This bureau has two chief
 Q objects—one to supply competent teachers to those in need of them, and
1 the other is to iind suitable positions for those who are educated in the
i Normal Department of the State College. N0 fee ar commission of any

kind is mllecled framisludenls of Ibis deprzrlmeazl for z'/ze services qf
the bureau. The work of the bureau last year far surpassed all expecta-
tion. After all who desired to teach had been placed in good positions,
many calls came to the bureau for teachers holding State Certificates or
State Diplomas. Persons who complete a course of study in this depart-
ment are entitled to life membership in this bureau fre: zyf c/zzzrge.
i NO COURSE OF INSTRUCTION BY CORRESPONDENCE. K
The State College of Kentucky oifers no course of instruction by
correspondence, and has no connection whatever with any correspondence
school or college either in this State or out of it, nor has any teacher in .
this College any connection with any correspondence school in the work
of preparing questions, examining papers submitted by students, or in any
capacity whatever.
This announcement was ordered by the Faculty of the State College of
Kentucky at its regular meeti11g in October, 1906 and was brought about
; by the increasing number of inquiries received here from persons who
l claimed to have been informed that the State College did conduct courses
of instruction by correspondence.
ACCREDITED SCHOOLS.
Work completed in high—class colleges, academies, or high schools
will be accredited on any course offered by the Summer School for teachers.
In order to receive such credit the student must on entering present to the
. Director a certiiicate signed by the olhcial head of the institution in which
the work was done showing what subjects were completed and what grades ‘
were made.

_'_‘. OBJECTS OF THE SCHOOL.
  The Summer School in Mechanic Arts was established to give to
` machinists, carpenters, metal workers, engineers, Bremen, superintendents
of electric light plants, public buildings having power plants, and artisans V
of all classes that training in engineering subjects which they have been
unable to secure in the ordinary plans proposed by correspondence schools
and technical books. The courses are especially adapted to young men who
are contemplating taking up engineering work. High school students are
enabled to carry shop-work courses and drawing-room courses during the
summer, so as to relieve themselves of the great burden of carrying this
work in connection with the four-year courses in engineering. For most of
the work in connection with the industrial arts, it is not necessary for a man
to have a full and comprehensive course for four years, such as is given in
an engineering college.
A working knowledge of mechanical drawing is almost indispensable
to a mechanic in every line of work. The ability to make drawings is not
only of value in itself, but tl1e study of mechanical drawing develops the
l power to read and interpret mechanical and architectural drawings properly,
I Elementary courses have bee11 projected in tl1e Summer School in all of the
° branches taught in the full four·year course i11 mechanical and electrical
engineering, and all of these subjects are presented from an elementary
standpoint without the aid of higher mathematics. Courses are provided in
testing of steam and electrical machinery, and all problems relative to the
transmission of power. Tl1e main object of the Summer School is to give
', the greatest posslble freedom in the selection of those subjects in which any
» man may be interested.
ENTRANCE CONDITIONS.
The entrance requirements for advanced courses in engineering are
_ beyond many men. No detailed educational requirements will bs specilied
for entrance in tl1e Summer School. Every applicant will be allowed to
pursue any course that he elects, and the same will be pitched on a thor-
` oughly fundamental plane.
j A speaking and writing knowledge of the English language is desired,
  together with a knowledge of elementary arithmetic. It is intended that
l

reach of every man. V
SUMMER SHOP WORK COURSES FOR STUDENTS i
IN ENGINEERING.
Those students who are matriculated in the full four-year engineering _
courses of any engineering school will be given such instructions as will VI
enable them to clear up the shop work and receive credit for this work in  
connection with their full engineering courses.  
I f
HIGH-SCHOOL STUDENTS AND THOSE CONTEMPLATING j
TAKING AN ENGINEERING COURSE.
Students in high schools will be able during their summer vacations to g
practically complete all of the shop work, and a great deal of the elemen- i
tary mechanical drawing required in the advanced courses in engineering
while carrying on their academic studies preparatory to taking up their
college engineering work later. ‘;
V STUDENTS FROM OTHER COLLEGES. l
Many young men who are pursuing courses in Arts, Letters and Science
_ in schools throughout the South will be enabled to obtain a proficiency in
Q certain technical branches that are not given in the courses in which they
j are matriculated. ;
yl THE FACULTY OF INSTRUCTION.  
  All instructors in the Summer School of Mechanic Arts will be men Y
  thoroughly competent to handle the subjects assigned to them, and every  
~. effort will be made to give that training which is substantial and thorough.  
gi REMOVING CONDITIONS. iz
  Students in the engineering course who have been conditioned in any *
L subject in the regular course will be enabled during the summer school T,
  session to clear up such deficiencies. No guarantee will be given that any 'Vj
‘ student can remove conditions. Ample opportunity will be afforded to all 5
students to do the work that is necessary to remove conditions in any sub· E
