Lever experiment is administered by Dr. Greenlee in Science Methods course. Education Coordination is a great task for this youngster as she struggles with the brush. The School of Education is the tocal point for the preparation of students phmning to serve the teaching profession. In this capacity it works closely with other schools in the University and the College of Arts and Sciences in sponsoring workshops, institutes, and con- ferences. Even before the arrival of the Sputnik Age, great effort was made to strengthen programs of pro- fessional preparation. Since then the faculty of the School of Education has redoubled its effort. They have sought and received the wholehearted coopera- tion of other divisions of the University. Our programs in elementary and early childhood education provide qualified teachers for Florida Schools. The programs for preparing high school teachers have been ex- panded greatly. A training program for junior-college instructors has been put into operation during the past year. Also, graduate students can now prepare for teaching and administrati ' e positions in colleges and universities. Student teacher, Betty Henderson, finds that she must spend hours after school to keep up.

Home Economics The Home Economics School has gotten off to a fresh start this year with a new Dean, Mrs. Glenn, Ph.D. With a relatively new building, now air-conditioned, and new ideas pooled from various sources, students in Home Economics are enlightened as well as thoroughly educated. Home Economics is concerned with the well- being of people. Its focus is primarily upon the individual as a family member. In support of the over-all objectives, Home Economics has evolved education and services which develop and help to maintain abilities or competences needed for the achievement of the broad objectives. These objectives are directed toward the betterment of family life through their direct application in the home and through professional activities outside the home. An informal and close relationship between the faculty and students is brought about by the types of classes held and the student faculty dinners and teas given throughout the year. Past century costumes are inspected by two Home Economics students in the newly organized collection. The aging process is an important experiment in the Clothing and Textiles laboratory. Food and Nutrition majors such as Carol TJlich must learn to measure iood weights and values.
