As this nation moves through its second year of war, we, at the Institute, are proud of the part which we are taking in this conflict. Since 1940 some of our divisions have operated twenty-four hours a day training war workers. Over six hundred students and recent graduates are in the armed forces. Already six Institute graduates have given their lives in the service of our country. Men in uniform are re ceiving training here. We are continuing highly essential technical training in all departments. As time goes on we must ask ourselves at the beginning of each new course of action, Will this contribute to the winning of the war? Students, faculty and graduates can all be proud of the part the Institute is taking in the achievement of ultimate victory. 12

Wyman Bond Welts Clements lilp Horn APPLIED ART MANY of our students and graduates who have been inducted in the armed services have found that their art training has been of great value to them in many phases. This has been true in the Morale Division, in the precision training required in the Air Corps, in the Engineering Division with emphasis on camouflage and in the development of map-makers. These various objectives for those who have been inducted in the armed forces have been achieved through the regular art training which they received here before entering the service. The need of applying specialized training to the definite jobs in war industry hos led to emphasis on courses in mechanical drawing for regular students. The post-war period is one which will require much of the trained art worker. The importance of the artist's contribution, not only to the post- war period but to the present emergency, is clearly recognized by all who appreciate the im- portance of preserving a democratic way of life. 13
