In the college ' s largest school, Arts and Sciences, activities vary so much from depart- ment to department that students in each curriculum feel as though they ' re in a sepa- rate school of their own. There are 15 departments in the School. The departments cover a wide variety of fields from speech and English to zoology, chemistry and physics.

The art of flower arrange- ment is a serious course for three students in the Horti- culture Department (left bottom).

One of the major research projects started in the School this year was in the field of neuclear physics. The Department of Physics in conjunction with several other departments of the college established an atomic research laboratory in Willard Hall.
