A GEORGE BARR Engineering, Descriptive Geometry Northland College, B.A. Columbia University, M.A. GROVER FRATER Electrical Engineering Marquette University, B.E.E., M.E.E. Courses in both general engineering and engineering-electronics are offered at MCC. In the former area are such classes as Elements of Drawing, Descriptive Geometry, Metallurgy and Heat Treatment, Elements of Motion and Time, Introduction to Industrial Manage- ment, Plane Surveying, and Statics. In the engineering-electronics area courses include Engineering Problems and Slide Rule, Elementary Engineering Problems, Elec- tronic Fundamentals, Vacuum Tubes, Radio Frequency Circuits, Industrial Electronics and Electronic Equipment. Since these Engineering-Electronics courses have a vocabulary all their own, students enrolled in the courses report that much stress is put on learning new words that at first are foreign to them.

A continually increasing number of students have been using the library facilitiesg consequently it has been nec- essary for the library to remain open for longer hours than in previous years. This year the library has been open on Monday through Thursday from 9 A.M. to 8 P. M.g on Friday from 8 A. M. to 5 P. M. Administering the library during these long hours has been the responsi- bility of Mrs. Viola Theorell, librarian. She has been assisted by Daurel Brown, Maryelizabeth Hawkinson, and Bradley Kint, student assistants. Mrs. Theorell and the faculty are planning ahead for the enlargement of the library. Each year many addi- tional volumes for reference and circu- lation are added. The three library assist- ants gather around the li- brarian as she explains the new multiple record sys- tem inaugurated this year. Seated are Daurel Brown and Mrs, Theorellg stand- ing are Maryelizabeth Hawkinson and Bradley Kint. ,pm-.K X Library Grows In Size and Popularity .1 A school library can be a second home for the conscientious student. Such is the case at MCC. The library is a boon to those seeking help beyond the textbook in their quest for knowl- edge. Begun in September, 1958, the li- brary now has on its shelves over eighteen hundred catalogued circulat- ing volumes and reference books. Forty magazines and newspapers are sub- scribed to or received as gifts. This year a rack of paperbacks with titles of special interest to the college student was added on an experimental basis. The paperbacks are sold to the interested student. Catalogued also is a collection of 181 records purchased primarily for the music classes. A phonograph with five sets of earphones is available for listening. VIOLA F. THEORELL Librarian tFuIl time facuityl University of Minnesota, B.A. University of Bridgeport, M.S.
