Master's Theses

The purpose of this report is to present plans and directions for laboratory apparatus, which may be built, by the instructor and pupils themselves from inexpensive materials. The report describes projects undertaken in approaching this problem in a particular school. It is not a complete laboratory manual.

The Catilinian Conspiracy : A Translation From French, Walter E. Bass Apr 1941

The Catilinian Conspiracy : A Translation From French, Walter E. Bass

Master's Theses

Of all the characters of the Ancient World none is better known today, both to scholars and to those whose knowledge of that history is small, than Cicero; Statesman, Orator, and Author.

Factors Influencing The Holding Power Of The School, Joseph Rotella

The holding power of' the school is justified and bolstered by many factors which stem from our faith in formal education.

The Improvement Of Commercial Education In The Secondary Public Schools, Oscar Howard Parrish Jan 1941

The Improvement Of Commercial Education In The Secondary Public Schools, Oscar Howard Parrish

Master's Theses

The history of commercial education reveals that when business $subjects were first added to the secondary school curriculum, they were offered to students who were not interested in going to college or were financially unable to do so and to those who lacked the ability to pursue college courses. Principals were very anxious to show large enrollment figures and ready to admit new subjects it these subjects would help to keep boys and girls in school. It was believed that such subjects would better prepare students to secure and hold a job.

In many sections or the country the taxpayers …
