m   HER   REVISED   EDITION
Author Includes Project By A&T Graduate
A 1957 graduate of A&T CoUege,
Mrs. Mae Hamilton Nash, who is
now employed by the college as
secretary to the Dean of Agriculture, has been notified that some
of her graduate work will be included in a forth-coming book.
During the faU semester of 1962-63,
Mrs. Nash enroUed in Measurement and Evaluation in Business
Education at UNC-G. The course
was being taught by Dr. Mathilde
Hardaway, author of the text for
the course. At this time Dr. Hardaway was in the process of revising her book, Testing and Eval
uation in Business Education. The
first edition included examples of
standardized tests; however, in her
next edition she was to use teacher
made tests because of their more
frequent use in classrooms.
Thirteen students were enroUed
in the class, and each student was
responsible for a project. Mrs.
Nash used as her project, an exhibit showing students' ability to
construct aU types of test questions. The class on a whole was to
be concerned with final examinations for a semester in any area
of business education.
Mrs. Nash was later informed
that her project was to be included
in the revised text book by Dr.
Hardaway. This alone was an
honor, for Mrs. Nash had no
teaching experience, and this was
her first encounter with school
since her graduation in 1957 with
a business education major. Included along with the work is
recognition of Mrs. Nash's contribution to the book.
As an undergraduate, Mrs. Nash
was a member of Pi Omega Pi,
Alpha Kappa Mu, and Kappa Delta
Pi — aU honor societies; and she
graduated with highest honors.
