When we call to mind the very large number of college graduates who, though not teachers themselves, are serving on school committees as directors of teachers, and of the still larger number who, as parents, are directing the education of children, is it unreasonable for us to demand that not only a special course of instruction shall be provided for those who intend to become teachers, but also that a part of every man's college course shall consist of studies...
