After consulting with em- ployers and educators they decided to institute a department to provide a cul- tural background. The General Course Group is comprised of science, literature, psychology, and history departments. The science department is one of the most active of the groups. Professor L. M. Cockaday is editor of the '4Radio News magazine. ourrza ism HE already distinguished Journalism department won further honors this year through its learned savant, Dr. John Bakeless. 'cProfessor Bakeless became Doctor Bakeless this year by being awarded his degree by Harvard.

This situation has enabled the students of the school to make valuable contacts with people directly connected with business. Dean Brisco has managed to persuade several store presidents and execu- tives to lecture and give courses. This year the school has also been fortunate enough to have at its disposal the use of several department stores as direct lab- oratories of research. All the phases of retailing are objectively observed by the students of the Retailing School. The Retailing Club is a very vital part of the school. All retailing majors and enrolled students in retailing courses are eligible for membership. g,1ll ll ul .-.ii-1
