SUMMER SCHOOLS ARE OLD TIMERS FOR SURI
Some Folks Say They Date Back to the Time of
Pericles
of Virginia established summer teaching in chemistry, while during the same season an institute of chaucantha type was founded at Lakeside, Ohio, and in Chicago the first summer school of oratory was opened under the auspices of the Soper school.
The Olympian festivals of ancient Greece, the philosophical schools of Athens, the medieval universities, all have been suggested as remote foreshadowings of American summer schools.
However fascinating the tracing of such parallels may be, the truth is that summer schools as they are known in the United States, are a growth of practically the last thirty years. They have sprung up in response to varying demands and needs in order to offer better training for public school teachers has created not only institutes but also summer schools.
Further more groups of people with common interests, schools of thought, and other organizations have deepened the loyalty of their numbers by means of summer gatherings. So, too, individual teachers with their assistants have gone to the country to teach languages, music, and art. Finally religious bodies and educational institutions have played an important part in summer school enterprises.
Teachers Provided For in '78
In the first half of the nineteenth century Professors Marsh and Dana of Yale, Professor Orton of Vassar and Professor Agasiz of Harvard, were accustomed to take with them into the field small groups of their most promising students.
Growth of Thirty Years
At Martha's Vineyard in 1878 the needs of public school teachers were first definitely provided for in the summer school.
During the same season three assemblies on the chatauqua plan appeared in indiana, Kansas, and Californias; a few new schools were established.
Date to First of 19th Century
In 1869 summer instruction was conducted in Cambridge under Harvard auspices. In 1871 the Massachusetts Institute of Technology gave field instruction in metallurgy and mining in parts of New Jersey and Pennsylvania, and two years later Prof. Lewis Lewis agassiz opened his zoological laboratory on Penikese Island in Buzzard's Bay.
In 1892 the Catholic summer school of America announced lecture courses and classes. The University of Michigan offered summer courses for the first time in 1894. In 1899 the University of California adopted the same plan. In 1900 Columbia university, New York, and Cincinnati university opened their doors to summer students.
Harvard Began it in 1869
According to the report of the Commissioner of Education there were in 1903 over 11,000 students in summer schools in 51 of our colleges. About two-thirds of these students were women.
More Women Than Men
In 1874 the first chauquaata assembly held a ten days' session on Chauquaata lake in southwestern New York. In 1877 the University
The history of the movement serves to emphasize the fact that schools have developed in response to local needs and as a result of waves of imitation spreading from one end of the country to the other.
