TI-IE INSTITUTE OF FINE ARTS BY DEAN HOLMES COWPER In IQOO Frederick Howard came to Drake University as Dean of the lXfIusic Department. I-Ie found little to work with, but being a man of business experience and foresight, he soon established the department on the sound foundation which has formed the basis of its growth in standards and enrollment. I-Ie remained with the institution some eight years. YVhen he died, he left besides many friends, a monument-Howard Hall-one ofthe best equipped music buildings in this part of the country. This building, made possible by his untiring efforts, has, as the home of the Drake University Institute of Fine Arts, become a veritable art center for Iowa. The Institute has as its mission, the providing of advantages for students of music, drama, and art, which the private teacher is unable to offer. The Well- trained artist must have a poised, sympathetic, well-rounded personality, in har- mony with the highest ideals of education and life. The Drake Institute of Fine Arts attains these ideals. It is an integral part of the University, having courses which are correlated with those of the other colleges. A stimulating cultural atmosphere surrounds the student, who has many opportunities to hear artists of international reputation. The faculty of the Fine Arts department are themselves artists. A number of them have studied in Europe and have appeared in the great music centers of the world. They are enthusiastically devoted to their calling, and as sympathetic and cultured men and women, they are a constant inspiration to their students. Wt Page 25
