Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Training School Quarterly April, May, June 1919 When the Governor of North Carolina received from J. Y. Joyner his resignation as State Superintendent of Public Instruction to take effect January 1, 1919, he immediately made up his mind to appoint Prof. E. C. Brooks, then of Trinity College, to the position, and notified Mr. Brooks at once of his determination. This was one of the wisest acts of an exceedingly wise and helpful administration. With the whole State to select from, he picked a man, the choice of whom has met with universal approval from educators and laymen. By nature and training Mr. Brooks is admirably fitted for his new task, and he will hold high the standard of his office. He is preeminently a schoolman, and brings to his task rare energy, enthusiasm, and zeal. Withal, he has an unusual facility for getting things done. His administration has had a highly successful beginning, and it is already apparent that it will be really great. Mr. Brooks knows North Carolina life and educational needs as few men in his generation have. He has given himself largely to the advancement of the State, and he is a fit leader for this new day. With the exception of a few years spent as a government official and newspaper correspondent at the national capital, and one year spent in study in New York, he has spent his life among his own people and his work has been in and for the schools. Immediately after leaving college in 1895 he became a school teacher. He taught first in Greene County, near his boyhood home, and then became principal of the school at Kinston; following this with the superintendency of schools at Monroe, serving awhile in the office of the State Superintendent of Public Instruction as secretary of the Educational Campaign Committee, which did such splendid service to the State in the late nineties, and then going to the superintendency of schools at Goldsboro. By this time he had ripened into a thorough student of educational theory and practices, an expert in administration, and an executive of rare ability. He made for himself a large place in the life of the town, and in the schools held a commanding place. About this time Trinity College decided to establish a department of education, and without hesitation Mr. Brooks, who was by all odds the best fitted man in the State for such a position, was called to be its head. For twelve fruitful years he served the College and the State in this capacity. Perhaps his best work was done here.
