OUR FRAMINGHAM BACKGROUNDOver a hundred years &gor Massachusettsschools were faced with the fact that theirteachers were unfltted for teaching because ofignorance, not only of methods, bub of subjectrnatter as well. To overcome this diffirculty,the Massachusetts Board of Education wasfortned in 18,37, with Horace Mann as its Sec-retary. This boa,rd made possible rthe estarblish-ment of three normal schools, one of which hasgrown to be Framingham State Teachers Col-lege. Our normal school was established in1839 at Lexington under Reverend CyrusPeirce, as Principal. Reverend Samuel J. Maysucceeded P'eirce in L842, but after two yearsthe latter again became Principal. In 1849 hewas followed by Eben Stearns. The schoolwas moved from Lexington to West Newton inL844; and to Frarnin,gham in 1853. The firstwoman Principal, Miss Annie E. Johnson,served from 1866-1875, and established thepractice school. She was followed by MissEllen Hyde"

Ilntil 1898, the school prepared for the ele-mentary grades only, but during that year theMary He,menway School of Domestic Sciencein Boston was &Dn€x€d. In 1920 the VocationalDepartment was established by the FederalBoard of Vocational Education.Henry Whittemore became Principal in 1898and conducted the school for nineteen years.He was succeeded by Dr. James Chalmers, whoretired in 19,3,0.

Francis A. Bagnall, served from 1930-1936,when Martin F. OtOlonnor became Fresident.With ex'tension to the State Normal Schools ofthe privilege of granting degrees because of theestablishment o,f the four-year course and thereco,gnition of the work done as of collegiategrade, the Legislature in March, t932,'changedthe names of all State Normal Schools in Mas-sachusetts to State Teachers Colleges.

Student Field Day

Some bright day in October hilarity will reignon the athletirc field when the Faculty demon-strate their daring by competing with the stu-dents. The girls enjoy the dem ocratic spirit oftheir elders, and faculty member,s enjoy thegive-and-take with the students.

Frateaco Weel<end

By combining the firs:t few letters in each wordin Flramingham Teaehers College there resultsthe word FRATEACO, an event known in thepast as the Harvard-Yale Weekend, so desig-nated because it traditionally fell ( as it stilldoes ) on the weekend of the big tlarvard-Yalega,me.

Friday finds teams and cheering sections ready,practice and drills over, the students rallyingto the support of either the Black Knights orthe Gold Stars, and everyone impatient for thefun to begin. Although the ,competitive spiritis everywhere in evidence. sportmanship andgood will prevail.

As a rule the weekend is ushered in by a tal-ent show Friday evening, full of fun and laugh-tef. Saturday is given over to sports. two outof three events determining the winners forthe day. A dinner to honor the teams followsin Peirce Hall; sp,eeches, singing, and an-nouncement of the various captains for thefollowing yeat ate highlights of this garthering.The weekend usually closes with a dance in thegym, which leaves everyone who has partici-pated in this ,grand and g'lorious event ofFRATEACO happy to have experienced thewonderful spirit and the gaiety for which it isnoted.

IOhrlstntas Week

Regardless of dates Christmas week is theweek before College closes for the holidays !

Something suitable to the season is offered atlVlonday's Assembly. On Tuesday S. N. E. A. ishostess to a g:roup of little folk less privilegedthan most. Wednesday evening the MusicalClubs present a program of carols, old and new,assisted by members of the Hilltop Players. Thedorrn girls have their Christmas dinner bycandlelight, with formal dress "de rigueur", andthe commuters gather at the Motor Inn orsome other convenient spot for an e,qually fe's'-tive repast. During the week each dorm andmany divisions of commuters have Christmasparties and trees. On Thursday evening theSeniors g.o _a;carolling, clad in warm clothes,accompanied by many of the male members ofthe Faculty. After making the rounds of thecampus houses they widen their circuit to in-clude homes of faculty mernbers, the Home forthe Aged, and many of the near-by friends ofthe College. Seniors are often heard to saythe carolling is just the nicest event of theyear

- possibly an exaggeration but neverthe-

less significant.

Stunt NightOne Friday evening in Marcth is always keenlyanticipated by the whole college comm,un-ity. For weeks befo,rehand each class ( andthe Faculty) works on a "stunt", the nature ofwhich is shrouded in mystery. Originality, at'-tention to detail in every particular, thorough-ness of preparation, and perce'ntage of groupparficipation are all considered by the judgeswhen the stunts are presented in public. andhappy is the class that is awarded the privilegeof having its numerals affixed to the StuntNight banner, which always hangs in the mainlobby of Dwight for sev€ral weeks prior to theprog:raln.

Arbor Day

T{re Governor's pro'clama'tion is the basis fot'the campus observation of Arbor Day, plannedand executed by the Seniors, and featuring theplanting of a tree. Much of the beauty of ourcampus can be traced to former arbor days.

May Day

The Sophomores' own day, May Day, beginswith Chapel , at which the theme chosen for theday is revealed in the course of the program.Sophomores oc,cupy the seats ordinarily re-senred for the Seniors, and the beauty andpromise of Spring motivate the arrangementsmade for this beautiful morning prelude to thecelebration of the afternoon. After classes theSophomore Class is hostess to the CoIIege andguests at a pageant in Chalmers Theatre andan inforrhal reception in the grove. The high-light of May Day is the presentation of theQueen and her Crourt, and the Spirits of Springand Framingham. An informal dance in honorof the Queen clima>res the day's festivities.

N. S. A. ForumsSeveral times during the year foreign studentsare invited to our campus from nearby colleges,to discuss with us the cultures of their respec-tive countries. In this way interest is quick-ened in problems which often prove to be uni-versal, and the importance of mutual under-standing is stressed.

Chapel and AssemblyRespecting the religious creeds of all rne,mbersof our college community, the aim of Chapel isto be inspirational and free of denominationalbias of any sort. Leadership is furnished bysenio'rs or m,embers of the faculty, or guestspeake,rsr the latter often secured by the Young

W'oments Christian Assorei ation, which invitesspiritual leaders of Jewish, Catholic, and P'ro-testant groups to be guest speaker"s. To 'theseg'enerous guests the College is indebted formany inspirational talks.

Public RelationsGood relations and sympathetic understandingbetrveen a teachers college and the public whichhas furnished and supports it are extremelyimportant. As an undergraduate everythingyou do will reflect credit or discredit upon yourcollege. Any awards or honors which maycome to you, in college or out, will be sharedby the college, just as you will share in anydistinctions that may icome to your college. Thereverse is also true, of course.

This interdep'endence between you and your col-Iege is inevitable and inescapable. It is beyondyour power to avoid this responsibitity, but itis very much within your power to add substan-tially to the reputation and fame of your almamater.

Seek out opportunities to promote her idealsand strengths. Be quick to resent and be pre-pared to refute any derogatory remarks aboutyour chosen college or your chosen profession.

Bear in mind, however, that the best possiblepublic relations are promoted by your own per-sonality as a serious, maturing student of edu-cation, in training for the most important dutyand privile,ge civilization offers, the honor ofinstructing its young.

Remember that you are entering a professionalcollege, and a.professional attitude is expectedof you.

Begin well ! Poor work in the first semestermay handicap you through your whole college

This is the place to make friends; don't chumwith one girl exclusively. There are approxi-mately six hundred at l"ramingham. Don't bea'fraid to speak to the girl who smiles a,I you.Firs:t impressions are important.

Cultural AspectsA Framingham girl aims to be informed. Sheis not en'elosed behind brick walls, but rathersees vital connections between her studies andthe world she lives in. AII departments atFt'amingha,m encourage a close relationship be-hveen scholas:tic work and related cultural op-portunities in the surrounding communities.Home economics students make supervisedvisits to markets, stores, and industrial plants.Geography, science, and art classes have fieldtrips to plants, laboratories, and museums.Drama and rnusic classes or groups from the,mtake advantage of the rcultural offerings inBoston and many other nearby communities.

Carnbridge, Sturbridge, Sudbury, and othertowns within a narrow radius of Framingharnall have unique features of special inte'res,t tothe college student. P'lan to investigate them.

Locally Framingham offers many cultural pro-,grams: le,ctures on a variety of subjects, _con-certs, and plays. Organizartions using Collegefacilities often throw their meetings open tostudents.

Community 'OfferingsStudents with time and talent may join theCivic League Playe,rs or The Co,mmunity ChoralSociety. ,

OBLIGATIONS OF A FRAMINGIIAM

STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE STUDE,hTT

On entering Framingham as a freshman, eachstudent upon payment of the budget fee -be-comes autbmafically a member of the StudentCooperative Association, and from then on hermembership in this Asso'ciation implies thatshe will bg willing to accept her obigations asa, cittzen of the college and conform to itsstandards.

There are certain obligations and responsi-bilities as well as p'rivileges connected with theStudent Cooperative Association at Framin,g-ham, and each girl should be ready and willingto assume her full share.

A wisely adjusted balance of academic and non-academic responsibilities contributes to the de-velopment of an all round student.

The attitude of every student towards the col-Iege community should be that of constructivecooperation. She should accept and supportthe fundamental standards of the g,roup andshould also be willing to conform to all ,customsand procedures which have proved to be for thebest interests of the co'mmunity.

Each member of the Student Cooperative Asso-ciation should take active part in offering sug-gestions fo,r i,mprovement and should feel her-self 'to be a vital part of a flexible and progres-sive dernocracy. Moreover, while each studentis identified with the college, she is, inevitably,its reprres,entative wh€:r€v€r she goes and shouldfeel the obligation of loyalty in maintaining itsreputation at all times.
