<p>Nobody has discussed yet another pre-professional program: teaching.</p>
<p>Upon brief glance a number of so-called liberal arts colleges offer numerous courses that are pre-professional towards eventual teaching certification, some have an actual education department, some have joint programs leading to teacher certification with other schools, with substantial amount of the vocational work taken during undergrad. A number of them even offer Master’s degrees in teaching.</p>
<p>There are a number of state universities that are predominantly undergrad and are relatively small, such as Truman State U, The College of New Jersey, The College of william & Mary, and SUNY Geneseo; some of these were formerly teachers colleges which is what reminded me.</p>
