The courses of instruction in the college of pharmacy not only prepares graduates to operate drug stores, but also fit them for other lines of pharmaceutical activity; to become hospital pharmacists; to enter the wholesale drug field; in the laboratories of pharmaceutical, chemical, biological and cosmetic industries; as analysts and in- spectors for health boards and other government agencies. Plans for the College of Pharmacy call for the erection of a new building for Pharmacy and Related Sciences on the Butler campus at the earliest possible date; the estimated cost is $400,000.00. For the present, the larger part of the work in phar- macy courses is being given in the buildings at 800 East Market Street. Members of the faculty of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences are also giving instruction in some courses there. A number of pharmacy students are attending regular classes on the Butler campus at Sunset Avenue. The College of Pharmacy holds membership in the American Association of Col- leges of Pharmacy and is accredited by the American Council on Pharmaceutical Education. Edward H. Niles is Dean of the College of Pharmacy and other faculty members are: Arthur A. Harwood, Dufae W. Lee, N. Lindley Michener, Sampson F. Jeffries, Paul W. Oren, Robert L. Prettyman, Edward J. Rogofsky, and Edward E. Swanson. Ardin E. Hays and George A. Schumacher conduct regular classes at the Market Street division. ANTONIDES MAY i PRETTYMAN LEE P HAR MAC y

The general objective of the College of Liberal Arts and Sclonces is to provide a training of the nnind that is of fundamental value in every wajli of life and essential to the highest aspirations of mankind. More specifically, in such a training the student follows a planned curriculum toward a major field which contains certain necessary basic elements comprising an interpretation of human experience as found in language, literature, and the Fine Arts, use of the scientific method of procedure in the acqui- sition of knowledge, exact and systematic thinking, moral and ethical evaluation of human activity, broad factual knowledge of the world, centered about some special interest of the student, and an opportunity for creative effort. The student with the expert guidance of a professor selects a major field leading to a profession, career, or any occupation of various kinds. In order to meet the needs of all students the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is divided into a lower and upper division. Completion of the lower division or two-year standardized course giving the student a broad, general education permits either the conferring of the title of Associate of Arts, or Associate of Science; entrance into a professional course; or entrance into the upper division. The upper division gives the student the opportunity to do his specialized work leading to the baccalaureate degrees of Bachelor of Arts, Bachelor of Science, or Bachelor of Arts with a Major in Music. The graduate degrees conferred are the Master of Arts and the Master of Science. Fisher, Donart, Stull, Harrison, Welling, SIsson, Lewis, Moore, Stewart, Wesenberg, Potzger, Palmer.
