All members present. 1.Ir. Vonnegut in the chair.

Mr. Rath presented the program for commencement and the names of the graduates. 17 members of the class will re- ceive the degree of Bachelor of Physical Education and 18 the three-year diploma. In addition, 14 graduates of the former two-year and three-year courses who completed the

~onk in absence, will receive the degree. The list was

approved. -

Mr. Rath also presented a letter from Dr. Richardson, Dean of the Butler University School of Education, stating that Butler University will admit students who have completed three years of work, with full credit for a major in Edu- cation. Upon completion of the fourth year's work at But- ler University, such students would receive the degree of Bachelor ~f Science in Education. Dr. Richardson stated that this agreement still needs to be approved by Butler College Faculty committee and President Athearn. 'He also proposed a working ,. agreement between Butler Unive:r;sity and the Normal College whereby students of either school might take coDxses at the other. The Board, after hearing Dr. Richardson's and Mr . Rath's explanation of the propo- sals, authorized Mr . Rath to continue the conversations.

Mr. Rath further proposed a celebration of thetwenty-fifth anniversary of the Normal College's establishment in Ind-

ianapolis, to be held. some time in fall. The Board referred.

the matter to the Administrative Board.

Meeting of Aug"'_st 24, 1932

I/Ir. Hath presented the revised curriculum agreeing to derra.nds made by Inuia·na University in order to arrange for a limited affiliation o±' t he Hormal College with the University. This curriculum was approved.

Mr. Ra th also presented a copy of a letter written .by Dr.

w .

^VI. Patty to Dean H. L. Smi th of the Indiana University School of Education and the Board ordered it to oe incor- porated in the minutes as a matter of record.

"Supplementing my "brief orla report of my trip to Elkhart Lake· in conference with the president and directors of the College of the Ar~terican Gymnastic Union, I am submitting the following sum.nary of recommendations at:Jreed upon.

1. The provisions of your letter of instructions to me were read

to

the group and met vri th their approval. The proposal, the ref ore, is to effect a ¹¹rela tionship between

their institution ancl Indiana University far the purpose of exchange of credits between the two institutions, mak- ing it possible where desira·ble for students of each in- stitution to take part of ·their r:iork at the other insti tu- t ion and have it apply toward the Bachelor's degree."

2. It vJas understood that such relationship would not in- volve additional expense on the part of Indiana University. 3. It is understood that such relationship VIould not ob- literate the identity of the College of the American Gp:m-

nastic Union. -

4. It was recommended that a wrmtten agreement be entered into after President Rath submitted tho revised curriculum of the College of the American Gymnastic Union which may further a clearer understanding of the re la tionshfup fmr purposes of guidance of students.

5. It is agreed to recommend that the curriculum of the College of the American Gymnastic Union be altered to the

extent that- they will provide t he equivalent of our licens requirements for the teaching of :Physical Education and of Physiology and Hygiene. This will mean an increase in the amount of time and ere di t in the fields of related science such as Physiology and Anatomy.

6. It is recommended that the students attending the Col- lege of t he American G,ymnastic Union shall arrange to com- plete enoJ_gh of a thir-d teaching subject at Indianapolis either at tbe Indiana Extension Center or at the College of the Ame1·ica11 Gymnastic Union so that they could complet this third teaching subject during the senior year on

Indialll. University campus.

7. It is understood that the usual arrangement ·will provid for students from t he College of the American Gymnastic Union t o go to the Indiana University cam.pus for t heir senior year of work. However, as indicated in the third paragraph of your letter of July 18, students at Indiana University would al so have the privilege of taking work at the College of the America1-. Gyi:mastic Union if they desire

\

(

"--./ J

A1834

to take advantage of that phase of the relationship, as is done now with John Herron Art Institute.

169

8. The American Gymnastic Union now requires freshmen and sophomores to spend one month at their Elkhart Lake camp, in addition to the eight months at the Indianapolis loca- tion. In order to meet our standards of time for a year of work, they plan to require a similar extra month at Elkhart Lake for all their students in the ju..~ior year. This, to-

gether wi th the contemplated action of the committee in dropping from their curriculum subjects that we do not re- quire or which nay be taken on the Indiana University

campus during t he senior year, should make sufficient time for the additional credi t work adyised in the related

sciences and the third teaching subject.

9. President Emil Hath . will submit a revised curriculum ⁽ to you for considerattion within the near future .

10. One of tho questions asked by the committee was: Can this plan be started du:eing the coming year? This would mean that they woul(l recommend that their seniors come to the campus for the coming year. If this_ were done, it wpuld, of course, mean that we vrould have to make a few

concessions to this group and probably the groups during j:;he next t\ o years by t he way oilt substitutions. While such pr_ooedure would involve acldi tional advisory work on our part, it seems to have some desirabl e features and I recommend it for your favo:E'able consideration.

W'hil<, t he trip to Wi sconsin and the conference vJOrk there

was rather strenuous, as a whole it nas a very pl easant experience: It 11ould oe clif:ficul t to ir11agine more court- euus t reatr:ient than I received from :Presi dent Rath and t he directors of t he American Gyrrmastic Union. Their feelings t mmrd Indiana Univ~rsi ty St.. em t o be very friendly indeed, and as far as I c.an judge, the centemplat ed r elationship

should be very satisfactory. ·

1l'he Boa rd then adjourned •
