Teachers promote legislation postponing Ryan requirements

Collegian Staff Writer
The Commission for Teacher
Preparation and Licensing, in an
attempt to "avert the effects of
transitions to Ryan Act requirement's," currently Is proposing
legislation that will postpone new
teaching requirements for live
years.
The new measure would allow
students to complete Fisher Act
requirements by September IS,
1973 Instead of September 15,
1974.
Tbe Ryan Act, which becomes
fully operative ln September,
1974, was Implemented last semester at CSUF.
Authorizing two kinds of teaching credentials, multiple subject
teaching and single sub'ect teach
ing, the Ryan Act requires students to take exams administered
by the Commission ln order to
fulfill "subject matter competence."
The Fisher Act, which has no
provisions for exams, required
a student to complete majors and
minors which had to be "academic or non-academic." This
stipulation has been eliminated
under the Ryan Act.
TRANSITION GUIDELINES
Last semester, ln order tolm-
plement the Ryan* Act, certain
guidelines were set to make It
easier for students making the
transition.
Currently, In order to satisfy
Fisher Act requirements «at
CSUF, a student must have been a
first semester Junior ln the fall
of 1972 or placed on a "Lock
List" last semester, designating
him as a "bona fide candidate
under Fisher Act requirements.*
In a. memo sent to Ihe heads of
teacher education programs at
CSUF, Peter L. LoPrestl, executive secretary of the Commission, said the commission is concerned about the "effect on students during the' transition to
Ryan Act programs."
It has been brought to our attention," states the memo, "that
there are other students who have
Interrupted their programs for a
variety of reasons or who are engaged In five, six, or seven year
programs which will not be completed by September 15, 1974.
"They did not meet the criteria
...   hut  would  be  adversely
The average

isn't.
No man who has mastered Ihe flying skills        Or, call him at(4t5)-273-7377(collect). Even
it takes to fly and land on a ship at sea can
be called an average pilot. And the sense of
accomplishment and satisfaction that he en.
joys are also above average. Which is only
right. For the man who would go places as
a Naval Aviator must pass through the most
challenging and demanding training program
to be found anywhere.
From Aviation Officer Candidate School
through Flight Training to the day his golden
Navy Wings are awarded, he it tested;
driven; pushed and tested again. And for good
reason. The Navy has learned that without the
will to succeed, no man can be successful.

"The number of these students
Is estimated to be substantially
more than Is desirable to nan-
die. .-."
FISHER CRITERIA
Under, the new guidelines, the
commission Is proposing for students to be 'eligible for Fisher
credentials by Institutional recommendation:"
a) "Any student who did, during the transitional period from
Fisher Act to Ryan Act programs July I, 1972 |o September    15,    1974,    successfully
complete a substantial pari, In
the Judgment of the Institution,
of a  student-declared-degree
program leading to a credential
authorized   under  the  Fisher
Act Is eligible to seek the said
credential under the Fisher Act
which   can   he  conferred   not
later than September 15. 1979.
h) 'Any  student who was accepted prior to September 15,
1974 Into a professional preparation  program leading to a
credential   under   the   Fisher
Act Is eligible to seek the said
credential   under   the   Fisher
Act which can be conferred not
later than September 15. 1979."
The memo adds that a student
ran make a   'direct application'
to the commission, hut only when
the  student  'has completed the
basic  requirements for a partial
fulfillment   Flsher-lype credential. "
CSUF REACTION
In responding to the memo by
LoPrestl, Ralph Evans, dean
of the School of Education at
CSUF. said in a memo, that the
guidelines set by the Commission
Imply:
1. 'Students who. In the Judgment of theVyrilverslty, have
completed a substantial part of
a student-declaredidegree
program leading to a credent
tlal author! zed under the Fisher
Acr'wlll have until September
15. 1979 to complete the-Flsher
credential requirements.
2. "Eligibility for a Fisher Act
credential after September 15,
1974 and until September 15,
1979, on the basis of a University recommendation, will require acceptance Into a CSUF
credential program by September 15, 1974.
-J3. CSUF 'Lock List' students
will have until September 15,
1979 to qualify for Fisher Act
credentials on the basis of a
university recommendation.
4. "Students- who are not on a
'Lock List' and who are not
able to qualify for a Fisher Act
credential on the basis of a
university recommendation
may qualify on tbe basis of a
'direct application' If they do
so before September-,15; 1979
and If they,asaminimum.have
satisfied requirements for a
'partial fulfillment' Flsher-
type credential. For tbe standard teaching credentials, the
minimum requirements Include
the holding of a baccalaureate
degree and the completion of
the student teaching requirement. To satisfy the student
teaching requirement, Institutional prerequisites for a registration In student teaching
will, of course, have tone met.
5. "CSUF Is under no mandate
to make a Fisher Act credential program available until the
Septemlier 15. 1979 cutoff date.
The university has already announced its Intention to terminate Fisher Act credential
programs after June 30. 1975.
6. "The university must adopt
a policy regarding what constitutes 'completion of a substantial part of a student-declared-degree program leading to a credential'."
Evans said CSUF has not yet
adopted a policy regarding the
"student-declared-degree program."
"The teacher education committee Is currently developing
policy recommendations regarding implementation of the guidelines," he said.
