Clifford M. Ulp Counselor Tlhere is a growing realization of the applica- tions of art in almost every activity of life. In industry, in commerce, in education, and in the home, art fills an important place. In cultural de- velopment its significance is unquestioned. The purpose of rhe art school is to offer comprehensive educational experience and training enabling the art student to participate not only in the field of art hut also in the varied activities of communitv life. Although the school of applied art is one of the oldest departments of the Institute, it is well in keeping with the progressive philosophy of the school. Individualized education has always been necessary in the teaching of arc, and with the individualized program developed in the past few years, the plan of study has made the art program even more effective. APPLIED ART INDUSTRIAL CHEMISTRY Ejvery day, chemistry is taking an increasingly important part in the life of the average person. Synthetic substances are being developed that have new and amazing properties which render them far more useful and satisfactory than the ones which have been used up to now. New fields are being opened and demand is great for trained men to take ad- vantage of ever increasing opportunities. The chemistry department is well equipped to satisfy the needs of constantly changing and ex- panding industrial requirements. The course of study is being revised and renewed continuously with the assistance of industry. In this wav it is possible for the Institute to keep ahead of the de- mands of production and to serve it in the best possible manner. The training given by the department gives the student the opportunity to fit himself for super- visory and management responsibilities which aid him in securing a desirable position. Alfred A. Johns Counselor IT
