Putting principles into practice is a feature of the lab-clasi roorn orr nge- ment of the School of Journalism. In editorial, advertising, and television- radio classrooms, journalism students learn by doing. This practical instruc- tion is supplemented by work on stu- dent publications as well as summer internships in communications media. Great interest in photojournalism has developed with the establishment of a chapter of Kappa Alpha Mu, na- tional photographic fraternity, on the FSU campus. A course in illustrative photography has been added to serve students majoring in art and related fields. The Institute of Medio Research was established this year with Dr. Sidney Kobre as head; the program of investigative studies was broadened; classrooms and offices in the Journal- ism Annex and the advertising lecture rooms were air conditioned; and addi- tional radio and audio-visual facilities were acquired.

Public Administration Dr. Wilson K. Doyle, Dean, School of Public Administration The objectives of the School of Public Administration are to train those seeking managerial careers in national, state or local government; to give pre-law training; and to help train good citizens. Although the School is relatively young, it has gained wide recognition, drawing students from various parts of the nation and from foreign counties. It has developed a program of instruction with a number of pioneer features, including the use of noted government officials in the classroom and on internship plan that gives students actual administrative experience. In government, as in business, administration is the unifying cord that runs through all programs at all levels. As administrative skills are vital in a com- plex society, there is a growing demand for graduates of the School of Public Administration. They are to be found OS budget officers, personnel officers, administrative assistants, city manogers and in similar posi- tions in the federal, state and local governments.

Dr. Margaret R, Sandels, Dean, School of Home Economics. Home Economics The School of Home Economics offers courses deol- ing with the problems of the home and the community as its contribution to general education. It provides specialized training for the professions growing out of former home activities and engages in investigation and research on the subjects falling within its area. Students interested in the sciences may major in nutrition, food technology, textiles or household ad- ministration. The students with artistic ability may find that a major in interior design or fashion design is more to their liking; while students interested in the social sciences may specialize in child development, family relations or combine a major in nutrition with courses fitting them for public health careers. The teacher of home economics, the home demonstration agent or the commercial home economist are other possibilities for a career in this area. All departments are housed in the spacious build- ing which was designed for the School of Home Eco- nomics and completed in 1956.
