Excerpt from The Pedagogical Seminary, Vol. 23: A Quarterly International Record of Educational Literature Institutions and Progress, 1916
For a considerable period the writer has had occasion to interest himself in certain aspects of the progress that within the past ten or twelve years has characterized training for the profession of teaching as given by state normal schools. To the end that such progress might be evaluated from something like truly chronological and not merely contemporaneous standpoint, it was deemed desirable that a comparative study covering a period of approximately a decade should be made for each of given number of representative schools. In pursuance of this purpose requests for catalogs corresponding to the years 1903-04, 1913-14, were mailed to each of more than 150 selected schools representing all sections of the country, east, west, north, and south. Responses of some sort were obtained from the authorities of all the schools. From many schools , however, it was impossible to procure catalogs, since those corresponding to the earliest of the years mentioned had not been preserved. In still other cases the particular catalog furnished did not contain the specific information desired. Data were procured from supplementary sources to confirm the facts provided by catalogs or to furnish needed materials that would otherwise, through absence of catalogs, have been unavailable.
