6orwersafion and Culture The climax of the year for the Mod- ern Foreign Language Department was the installment of the new language lab. The first college ever to do so, NCC leased it directly from the Rheem Califone Company. The thirty position lab has the latest available equipment, including a high speed duplicator. The general trend of the department is to push a program by which North Central is able to send students abroad to study at about the same cost as a year at NCC. B.

Charles l-lower, Professor of Classics: B.A., M.A., Ph.D. Philosophy . . . Good? Dead? NCC is one of the few small Mid- western liberal arts colleges offering a major in the Classics. This department supplies needed Greek and Latin in- structors, as well as providing a valu- able background for such professions as medicine, theology, and law. The department-headed by Dr. Charles l-lower, who has traveled extensively in ltaly, Greece and the Middle East- has during the past few years, tripled its enrollment in the Greek and Latin courses. .-ly., 28 ' 0lassioal Traveler r ,... . xv,, I QVQWS Q .1 'V X X RX s Q 3 K .t X SX bmfoqyf A w Q 'W X etsjtgi?

Henry Skoglund, Associate Professor of Philoso- phy: M.A. The Philosophy Department, headed by Mr Skoglund, involved the entire campus in an exposure to, if not an appreciation of, philosophy. First semester, the department fea- tured an address by Dr. A. C. Genova, and an all-day seminar with Dr. R. Gotesky on The Relevance of Con- temporary Philosophy. Second semester, Mr. Skogland ad- dressed the convocation, and was fol- lowed the next week by a student- faculty debate on the question, What is the Knowledge Most Worth Having? ll
