SOME FACTS ABOUT THE COLLEGE
Term Your term is ten weeks from the day you enter
The work is thorough the courses comprehensive hence the suc
cess of its students
The school is practical and meets the demands of the times hence
the large attendance
The expenses are less at this school for twelve months than at most
schools for nine months
Do you live in town and find that you cannot realize your
tion to obtain an education either collegiate or special
Our students are of that class of young men and women who go to
schoolfor business for study for a purpose
We are prepared to help you in various ways aud we would be
pleased to hear from you See explanation of courses of study
A great number of our students come from the farm and but for
this school and its advantages an education would be impossible to
them
The school is organized for the vast army of young men and wom
en all over the west who are anxious to secure an education and have
no money to throw away in useless expenditures
Teachars We obtain only the best teachers the country affords
Every teacher is a specialist in his or her line of work Thus the stu
dent learns twice as much in the same length of time as he would if
he had a poor teacher
Every minute of the time is usefully employed Recitations are
forty five minutes long and the school year ia fifty weeks- Conse
quently as much can be accomplished in this school in two years as
can be a ccomplished at other schools in three yeaas
Does it pay to attend schools without standing with school boards
No The Nebraska Normal College does thorough practical work in
ever3r department Students from the various departments secure po
sitions as soon as they are ready for them
Our courses embrace everything necessary nothing useless that
there are broader higher fields of knowledge than we can lead you
through is true but it is also true that it would take years of time and
thousands of dollars of money to acquire this knowledge in the high
er schools of learning
A great many students hesitate about coming to college because
the3r thdnk they are not sufficiently advanced To such we would say
come right along you will find suitable classes There are no exam
inations for admission required and a student is known by his work
Especially is there no distinction between rich and poor
The student whose life is earnest whose time is money and whose
future is in hiB own keeping does not care for three or four months
vacation in a year He prefers to spend the time in hard study and
earnest application and thereby completers extensive a curriculum
in little more than one half the time
We have special classes provided for tjie thousands of young men
and women who have not the time or money to enter our regular
courses but yet who want special work on special subjects and who
desire to spend a tew monms ior tnis purpose rnese classes are un
der the care of able educators specially trained for this work
We have devoted our time energy labor and means to establish a
school for the poor young men and women of the west that would
have standing among the educators of the country and we are grati
iiedat the recognition that collegetnen cbuntysuperintendents pub
lic schojpl menas well as our thousands of patrons have given us
Are you a farmers son or daughter living out in the country
where you have never had the advantage of graded and higher
schools Do not hesitate to come here thinking you are not fatr
enough advanced Remember we have classes specially provided for
students of this kind Many of our very best students come from the
farm Ourobject is to help you do all the good in the world possible
We can justly claim that the practical education in the Normal
College trains young people to industry and thrift to respect for
economy and labor to a love for their homes and an enhanced rever
ence and affection for their parents Our students are known every
where for their honesty their enterprise and their business success in
every calling in which they have established themselves

That the work of the Normal College is thorough and practical is evidenced
by the fact that its graduates have no trouble in securing excellent situations
as teachers accountants etc and school boards from all sections of our own
and adjoining states are constantly writing President Pile for teachers And
why should the work not be thorough and practical when it is remembered
that every teacher is a specialist in the branches under hiss or her charge is
earnestly interested in the work and has in addition to the necessary educa
tional qualifications that which is eminently of more value the knack of
making a dry subject full of interest to the pupil The writer has visited the
College at various times and has never yet found a dull and listless class on
the contrary both teachers and classes have always been alert and watchful
quick to catch a new thought or principle or to detect an error and correct it
With such methods and principles as are constantly employed in the Nebraska
Normal College success is not a thing for chance and fortune to determine
but is sure assure as day is to follow night
A P Childs Editor Norfolk Times- Tribune
It must truthfully he said of the Nebraska Normal College that it gradu
ates many of the best teachers and young business men of Northeast Nebraska
and that the finished student leaves that institution with a snperior and more
practical training than those of ordinary colleges ProL arid Mrs Pile have
labored hard to bring the school up to its present high standard and are now
liberally supported by the people Laurel Advocate
TTuder the able direction of that prince among eduoators Prof J M Pile
the Nebraska Normal College has forced its way to the front and we honestly
believe is without a superior of its kind east or west Fortunate indeed are
the young ladies and gentlemen who have the advantages of this institution
Prof Pile is assisted by an able and tried corps of teachers each eminent in
his department Most heartily do we recommend this College to all who are
seeking a classical professional business or musical education Parents may
with the utmost confidence entrust their sons and daughters to the care of
Mr and Mrs Pile We speak from knowledge gained by a personal investi
gation M Luther Kunkleman Pastor Lutheran Church
Having many times visited the Nebraska Normal College I take great
pleasure in endorsing uU departments of its work Prof J M Pile the pres
ident is not only a man o executive ability but a superior teacher He is to
be commended for his enthusiasm and the thoroughnes nf fhe work What
has been said of the president may be said of the secretary and all the teach
ers A healthful invigorating moral atmosphere pervades the school the
health of body and mind are alike cared for No idle scholar feels at home in
the Nebraska Formal College
W W Theobald Pastor Baptist Church
It gives me pleasure to recommend the Nebraska Normal CoHege to those
who desire an education A new building with all the modern improvements
has just been erected and offers enlarged opportunities and superior advant
ages The location of the college is beautiful and healthful It stands on a
prominent eminence and commands an extended an picturesque view The

with whom I am personally acquainted I heartily recommend them as thor
ough and reliable workers I am particularly glad to notice the attention
given tohealth morals and manners
A F Ernst Pastor Presbyterian church
It is with pleasure that I recommend the Nebraska Normal College to any
young person seeking an education I have several reasons for so doing Lo
cated as it is in the most progressive town in Northeast Nebraska a town of
churches and schools where I have had the plensureCof residing for the past
three years and being brought in contact with the faculty and students almost
daily I have no hesitancy in saying that the faculty stands second to none
among the schools of the west and with Prof Pile at the head I never fear the
ouqeome of the honest students college career
Thomas Bithel D D Methodist Pastor
From a fiye years acquaintauce with the president oj the Nebraska Nor
mal College and acquaintance with members of the faculty and acquaintance
with many teachers who have been students of the college and personal ob
servation of the work of the college I can heartily recommend it to all teach
ers those preparing to teach and those who wish to prepare themselves for
business In my opinion the Nebraska Normal College is not surpassed by any
institution in the west Mary Schroer Ex Supt Dixon county
The Nebraska Normal Tollege is sending out strong competent teachers
who are meeting with the most satisfactory success as teachers Stanton
county is to be congratulated upon its nearness to such educational advantages
as are offered in this school Its faculty is a strong one The fact that teach

a higher education is but attested by the number who have attended and are
now attending the college at Wayne
