Abstract
The statement of principles printed below amounts to a general agree ment among the faculties of the five publicly-supported teacher education institutions in Connecticut. The joint committee of representatives, begin ning with data developed by one of the committees of the Governor's Fact- Finding Commission, fanned its thinking into the faculties of the colleges. Criticisms, comments, and suggested revisions were returned to the commit tee. Subsequently, the revised statement was sent back to the colleges again for further analysis. The agreement on general principles of teacher educa tion which grew out of the common thinking of the faculties seemed to the people involved to be significant for the clarification of their own thinking.
The principles are presented with the idea that they may be of help also to other teacher education institutions as they seek to initiate or revise programs.—Editor's Note.
