Prof. Gaston Speaks Of Teacher Need
Stressing the need for well-trained teachers in today's changing world, Prof. E. T. Gaston of the School of Fine Arts spoke to members and initiates of Pi Lambda Theta, national education sorority, at the initiation service and banquet held last night at the Hearth. Nineteen women were initiated into the organization.
For the well-trained though inexperienced teacher there is opportunity to aid in moving the educational program forward from its former 'rut.' Because of the urgent need for teachers to elevate the present educational standards created by the lack of teachers, a problem exists today which is as pressing as any other war problem.
As an added inducement for the teaching profession, Prof. Gaston pointed to the advantages of prestige of the well-trained teacher and the increased salary.
