GRADUATE PSYCHOLOGY STUDENT RICHARD HISS CHECKS EXPERIMENT OF PIDGEON ' S REACTIONS ON CONTROL PANEL. Graduate Schoo Dp. Charles G. Wilber, Dean of the Graduate School, olso teaches in the biology department. He maintains on office on the Atrium balcony. The Graduate School provides advanced study leading to a master of arts, a master of education, or a master of business administration. November 17, 1960 the Board of Trustees approved a program of study which will lead to a Ph. D. This program will include the fields of Eng- lish, history, chemistry, and education; and will go into effect in the fall of 1961. With minor changes in the library and laboratory departments, Kent will be able to stabilize this program and make it an effective one. By doing graduate work, the student obtains a fundamental understanding and a more thorough mastery of his major field. It also gives him a chance to make advances in his preparations for professional or technical work. There are some particular requirements a student must fulfill to receive a degree. The student must possess a reason- able amount of ability to do research work, be capable of sustained study, hove a broad knowledge of literature in his field of endeavor, and be an independent thinker. To be admitted to graduate study, one must have a bachelor ' s degree, a 2.5 accum, and pass certain re- quirements in his particular field. Kent has granted a master of arts degree since 1935. For ten years, the degrees of master of education, and a master of business administration have been granted. Dr. Charles G. Wilber is Dean of the Graduate School. He was a professor of biology. He received a B.S. from Marquette University, an M.A. and Ph.D. from Johns Hopkins University. 14
