College
ranks Mgh
By Tami Scheutze
Staff Reporter
UNL's Teachers College ranks in the
top 10 of 900 universities nationwide,
said Lynn Mortensen, assistant profes
sor of curriculum and instruction.
Bert Alfrey, director of the Teachers
College Student Services Center, said
reasons for the high rank include the
2.5 grade point average required for
students and an adequate score on a
state-required pre-professional skills
test that undergraduates must take to
enter the college.
Most Teachers College students
graduate with a job waiting for them
because of the annual Teachers Fair,
Alfrey said. Schools from all over
Nebraska and other states send repre
sentatives to the fair each spring to
hire teachers for the upcoming semester.
Most graduates teach in Nebraska,
Mortensen said, but some go to other
states for higher salaries. Nebraska has
some of the best teachers, but they are
often paid below the national average,
she said.
A key to maintaining quality educa
tion in the college is "keeping up
nationally," or staying ahead of other
schools' programs, Mortensen said.
NU Regent Don Fricke suggested
earlier this school year a merger between
UNL and UNO education programs to
further improve the quality of the two
schools.
"Basically, the merger would involve
the two campuses to share their
resources, faculties, programs and
cooperate more," Mortensen said.
She also said that efforts to improve
three different types of student-teaching
programs for undergraduates have
begun.
"Project Experience" allows people
trained in fields other than teaching to
apply their course for credit toward a
teaching degree.
Another program enables elemen
tary teachers to focus on liberal arts
classes and teacher-education courses
through a five-year plan.
Lincoln Public Schools allow under
graduates to teach for fifth-year intern
ships. Student teachers begin work
Jan. 19.
Teachers College student Sheri Spo
tanski plans to graduate in the spring.
Last semester, she spent weekday
mornings, 7:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., at
Lincoln High teaching advanced alge
bra and a consumer math course.
"This student-teaching program pre
pared me very well because of the
responsibility placed on me," Spotanski
said.
Mortensen said that as well as
teaching in class and grading papers,
students also must be involved with
other events at the schools such as
parent-teacher conferences, monitoring
halls and helping at athletic events.
