L NGUAGE Mr. Schoberg is to the modern language department what the Old Main is to the campus. Both are integral factors on the Concordia scene. Dr. Skalet is a scholar in the truest sense of the word. Pre-seminary students leave his classes excellently Prepared in Greek and Latin. J. A. Holvik not only has a thorough understanding of Norse, but also has a wealth of knowledge about Norwegian culture to draw on for his classes. Miss Kleppe forms the other half of the Norwegian department team. Like her co-worker, she has a good deal of interesting Scandinavian culture to pass on to her students. ....l G. L.

Sigvald Fauske 1 Sidney Rand Eugene Fevold Reidar Thomte RELIGIO A course from the head of the Religion department, Rev. Fauske, is a real Christian experience. Students find his counsel invaluable. Christianity is a dynamic religion and Rev. Rand is one of its most dynamic representatives. An immense, but concise knowledge of Christian Church history is Rev. Fevold's. Besides serving on the staff of the Religion department, he is also pastor of the West Fargo church. , Dr. Thomte is noted as a scholar and also as a wit. To his credit it may be said that profound thoughts are not necessary vague ones to his students. r PEECH A mental picture of Mr. Monson must by necessity include also a bow tie and a hunting dog. His job is teaching the basics of speech to aspiring speakers. Another returned Cobber is Ray johnson whose work in speech and dramatics have been of an admirable quality in his first year here.

LANGUAGE Mrs. Schoberg's pleasantness makes learning a modern language much easier. To her students, learning German becomes more of a pleasure than a task. Quiet and kind aptly describe Miss Stiening who strives to make real scholars out of her German students. A new person on campus this year is Miss Barber. Already she has impressed on the Cobbers her ability as a teacher of Spanish. This is Miss Gulbranson's first year at Concordia, too, but she has already assumed double duties. When she is not carefully laying down the fundamentals of Latin, she can be found cheerfully clearing up a freshman's fazy concepts of English grammar. Anne Schoberg M.
