KU school tightens standards
By Jenny Martin Kansan staff writer
School of Education seeks to reduce applicants, enrollment
The School of Education is anticipating the February 18 application deadline for those applying to the school under the new competitive admissions program.
The competitive program will apply to those interested in elementary and middle school education, as well as high school social studies and English. All students who apply for admission to these areas for the fall semester must comply with the new entrance requirements.
Because of a lack of state financing for additional faculty, the school implemented the new standards in an attempt to lower enrollment in those classes.
Jerry Bailey, associate dean of undergraduate studies, said the enrollment needed to be regulated because of an increase in the number of students who had enrolled in the school.
"at hat the School of Education has been faced with the past couple of years is rapidly escalating enrolments, which is normally a delightful dilemma," Bailey said. "But the state is unable to provide the University resources for faculty and extra sections of classes."
The number of students enrolled in
the school rose from 773 students in the fall of 1986 to 1089 in the fall of 1989. Enrollment has stabilized, but it is greater than the school can adequately handle, he said.
The competitive program is not being used to limit the number of students enrolled in the fields of mathematics, foreign languages or science because these areas have acknowledged national teaching shortages, Bailey said.
"The University has been as fair to the School of Education as it possibly could be," Bailey said. "It's just that at this point all programs are suffering."
He said that he thought there would be significantly more students applying than would be accepted to the school. He estimated that 50 elementary, 20 English and 20 social studies students would be admitted.
Applicants will be reviewed by the faculty of the department of curriculum and instruction within the school.
Beyond the regular admission requirements, the faculty will look at the applicants' letters of recommendation, statements of career goals, experience and an evaluation of work completed in a 100-level class taken during their first year of pre-education coursework.
Because the entire teacher education program is built around extensive field experience, an overload of students enrolled in the school means an exorbitant number of people that must be placed in student teaching positions.
"All of our students at some point will spend time in the Lawrence schools, which have been very gracious in accepting us." Bailey said. "But there are just so many classrooms, and they risk being swallowed up by KU students."
Judy Hills, coordinator of field experience, said teachers in Lawrence were starting to burn out trying to help the large number of students that observe and student teach in their classrooms.
"It's a supply and demand problem, not to mention that the job market is also a big consideration," she said. "It's a real dishervice to the students to encourage them to enter fields where it's highly unlikely to find a job."
"I'm really mad about the change in policy," she said "I've wanted to be a teacher all my life, but now I may not even get into the school."
Dana Walker, Overland Park somphore, said she was working on her application to the school, but the com- mendation was one of one of per friends into not applying.
