Thanks for your patience during our recent outage at scalar.usc.edu. While Scalar content is loading normally now, saving is still slow, and Scalar's 'additional metadata' features have been disabled, which may interfere with features like timelines and maps that depend on metadata. This also means that saving a page or media item will remove its additional metadata. If this occurs, you can use the 'All versions' link at the bottom of the page to restore the earlier version. We are continuing to troubleshoot, and will provide further updates as needed. Note that this only affects Scalar projects at scalar.usc.edu, and not those hosted elsewhere.

The primary purpose of this department is to provide professional training for those preparing to become teachers and school administrators. Many of the courses are, therefore, essentially technical and vocational but a number are adapted to meet the cultural needs of students who enter other walks of life. It also aims to develop in the student an insight into other walks of life. It also aims to develop in the student an insight into facts and principles of psychology which may aid him in controlling his own mental life and in understanding the reactions and points of view of others.
