Transition from the current program, for those students presently involved, will be made without disadvantage to the students or disruption of their plans for completion. A supplement to the present catalog will be published to fully describe the new program at the appropriate time. Internship Program exists for the student in elementary or secondary education. The basic philosophy of the Elementary- Teaching Intern Program (E-TIP) and Secondary-Teaching Intern Program (S-TIP) is to provide interns with sound and effective supervisory assistance throughout their first year of teaching, to further increase the depth and breadth of their experience with pupils and the school curriculum, to offer more support in coping with the problems faced by the first year teacher, and to make for deeper insight into the attitudes and activities required of a professional teacher. Students interested in becoming candidates for the intern program must obtain application forms from the student teaching office and submit them by December 1st preceding the year of internship. Interns will be contractual employees of a local school district and will be compensated by the district. Students will be required to attend the summer microteaching clinic in preparation for the year's internship. Further details of the program are available through the department chairmen or the student teaching office. Dual Certification is a possibility for a student who desires to earn both the elementary and secondary teacher certificates. Ordinarily this requires two or more quarters of work in addition to that required for the single certificate. An outline of the requirements for dual certification may be obtained from the School of Education Office. Persons interested in the dual certificate should plan either with the chairman of elementary education or the chairman of secondary education. Graduate students who desire to earn the teacher certificate will need to meet the following requirements: clearance by the chairman of the Elementary or Secondary Education Department, completion of the regular teacher education admission procedures and for secondary education candidates, clearance with the department chairman responsible for their major and minor teaching subjects.
