H Margaret Rector Sandels Dean of the School of Home Economics B.S., A.M., Ph.D., Columbia. |OME economics work was first introduced into the College in 1905 with the establishment of the Florida Female College. In 1918 the work was organized within a School of Home Economics, giv- ing the degree of Bachelor of Science in Home Eco- nomics. In 1922 a Bachelor of Science in Nursing was first offered in combination with certain accredited hospitals in the State. In 1919, a laboratory for research in nutrition was first established. Here va- rious types of nutrition investigations have been carried forward, stressing particularly the nutritional problems of Florida. The training of teachers of home economics is one function of this school, but the profession of home-making is the most important occupation for which the school pre- pares its graduates. The courses dealing with the economic and social problems of the home, the care and welfare of children, and the feeding and clothing of the family are all of direct interest and value to the prospective home-maker.

Ella Scoble Opperman Dean of the School of Music B.M., M.M., Cincinnati Conservatory of Music; Pupil of Jedliczka in Berlin; Pupil of Moszkowski and Guilmant in Paris. THE history of the School of Music is also parallel with that of the whole College, since this depart- ment has been established since 1905. For the past twenty years, Dean Ella Scoble Opperman has served in the capacity as head of this school, assisted by a faculty which has gradually increased to 16 members. The School of Music offers a B.M. in piano, voice, organ, violin, cello, public school music, and the most recent addition, composition, and it is successfully preparing its graduates for vocational service in these same fields. It is reaching still larger groups in its impress upon the students enrolled in the other schools of the College by assisting them to self-expression through individual instruction and by group work in glee club, orchestra, and assembly. It is developing in these students concentration, imagination, perception, and team work. Through appreciation of music courses and concerts it is teaching the power to understand and enjoy the uni- versal language, a part of man ' s being in all walks of life. Auditorium j Page 2 7
