Excerpt from A History of the Courses of Study in the State Normal Schools of Pennsylvania

From Principals Eldon, Noss, Waller, Lyte, Flickinger, Eckels, and Dr. J. A. Cooper, catalogues and data were, however, obtained, supplementing those which were already in the possession of the writer. The absence of Dr. Philips undoubtedly deprived us of much valuable assistance.
