TW»«gAVt:R YgARKOOK»Of»Ttig»ORfCTQN ' SIAI COILtm: SCHOOL OF BASIC ARTS AND SCIENCES • HE school of basic arts and sciences, as its name implies, embraces the departments of art, bacteriology, botany, chemistry, Eng- lish, entomology, history, mathematics, modern lan- guages, phvsics, public speaking and dramatics and zoology, in which work fundamental to an education in the various technical schools of the institution may be pursued. These departments were first brought to- gether into an administrative unit in September, 191 8. The school of basic arts and sciences registers no stu- dents and grants no degrees. It provides for students registered in the technical schools the foundation in science indispensable to technical achievement and an opportunity in art, literature and history to develop a point of view, a scale of values and a method of think- ing. 1 Z -r )t 0— - ' NINi :T gT = N ' tiUMn« l- n ' T W -M T V» .iatiT TWi:NlY jLNJLNi: [ p]

It has grown steadily and now has the best equipment and the largest attend- ance of any state supported school of pharmacy on the Pacific coast. The scope of work offered not only pre- pares for efficient service as a pharmacist but also for advanced work in the profession of medicine. Oregon State school of pharmacv has many progressive features such as a complete model drug store, a drug laboratory, a student loan fund and excellent facilities for graduate work and research on topics that vitally concern public health. These features are the result of cooperation with the druggists of the state who established the school. a i-iLL.c 1 -c-cnniJimjTi.cu ' I TTT lt I I i iVTTii - i yii i- 1 1 m i i-su. [30]
