Excerpt from The Normal School Bulletin, Vol. 1: Southern Illinois State Normal University, Carbondale, July 1907, Announcements for 1907-1908 An act of the General Assembly of the State of Illinois, approved April 20, 1869, provided for the establishment of this Normal School. By this act it was ordered that five trustees should be appointed by the Governor of the State, who should fix the location, erect the building, and employ teachers for the school. The trustees located the school in the town of Carbondale, on a lot of twenty acres, three-fourths of a mile south of the station of the Illinois Central Railroad. The cornerstone was laid on the 17th day of May, 1870, with impressive ceremonies, by the Masonic fraternity. The building was finished in time to be dedicated July 1, 1874;the first faculty commenced the work of instruction in the new building July 2, 1871, at which time a summer session of four weeks was opened, with fifty-three pupils attending. On the sixth day of September, 1874, the regular work of the Normal University commenced. On the afternoon of November 26, 1883, at 3 o'clock this beautiful building was discovered to be on fire, and before 5 o'clock p.m., despite the efforts of faculty, students, and citizens of Carbondale, the entire building was in ruins. By the heroic labors of students, teachers, and citizens, the library was saved, and most of the furniture: also the physical and chemical apparatus. All the material in the museum was lost. The citizens kindly offered the use of rooms in some of the business blocks, which the trustees accepted, and the school went on with regular recitation work, with an actual loss of Jess than two days. In the meantime, a plan was proposed for a temporary school building, and in less than sixty days a building was completed containing fourteen rooms, and the Normal School began its wonted duties in this, its temporary home. The General Assembly, by an act approved June 27, 1885, appropriated $152,065 to replace the first building, then lying in ruins. The foundation and stone walls of the first story were utilized, thus saving from twelve to fifteen thousand dollars. The present building, which is the main building of the entire plant, is a magnificent structure, in many respects superior to the one destroyed by fire. It was dedicated Thursday, February 24, 1887, and occupied by the school with much rejoicing on the following Monday. The Science Building was provided for by an act of the General Assembly in the winter of 1895, appropriating $40, 000.00 for the purpose. It accommodates the physical, chemical, and biological laboratories, the museum and gymnasium. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from The Normal School Bulletin, Vol. 10: October 1, 1904 The other educational influences that are at work during at least four-fifths of the waking hours of the child are the father and mother in the home, the natural surroundings and the community life, with its many industrial, commer cial, political, social, and religious phases. Tparents and guardians, not teachers, are responsible for the children's companionship out of school; responsible for the manner in which they spend their time, for what they read, the games they play, and the whole warp and woof of the children's physical, mental, and moral life when not in the school room. The fortuitous education of natural environment and social experience is indirect but powerful. The home and school, the largest factors in the child's education, should certainly co-operate in molding all other influences.
