2 Give Europe Ed- Views —
'Living English' Gives Insight
At the Mar. 13 meeting the SNEA heard an address on "Teaching in Europe" given by two Rochester teachers, Mr. Lyle Allen,
social studies teacher at John
Marshall, and Carl Zander, social
studies teacher at Frank B. Kellogg.
Mr. Allen spoke first on teaching in England under the Exchange Teachers Program. The
minimum requirements are a
bachelors degree, three years of
teaching experience and an age
limit of 55. There are sixteen
countries participating, with Great
Britain receiving the largest number of American teachers—100.
Mr. Allen advised that it is wise
to have a foreign language, for
then you have more choice in
selecting  a country.
American teachers receive salaries which coincide with their
home salaries, plus a bonus and
transportation over and back.
There are no allowances, however, for families.
LACKED COMFORTS
A major problem cited by Mr.
Allen was adjusting to the new
environment. Living was not always comfortable and you often
lacked the comforts of home (His
daughter missed hamburgers and
french fries). He felt, however,
the most valuable experinece was
"living with an English family and
gaining insight into their culture."
Mr. Allen described the English
school system as having 210
school days and much variety.
Each school is run rather independently  and   the   headmasters
of schools are "little gods" who
often dictate school policy. He
explained the system as being
divided into levels, with lowest
being the infant school (ages 3-6),
then junior' modern (7-11) and
grammar school, which is attended only after an examination is
passed at the end of junior modern school. If the students do
poorly on the test, they may go
to high school until they are fif-
tee'n or attend a vocational school.
MUCH CEREMONY
There exists a great deal of
ceremony at the 665 year old
boys school at which he taught,
and a rigid class system among
the faculty—the headmaster being
at the top and descending down
the   ladder   to   the   "underclass'

to  plan   the  rest  of  the  campaign   during   Easter
vacation.
The only days available for the primary campaign are between April 16, when students return
from Easter vacation, and April 19, date of primary
voting.
The   formal   campaign   convocation,   set   for
Coffman  Hall  on  Thursday,  April   18,  third   hour,
will climax the campaign.   Each nominee will give a
five  minute speech  at that time.
*       * The campaign convocation was
approved by the Student Council
after   an   editorial   suggestion   in
the March 1  issue of the JC Echo.
