ENGLISH, HISTORY AND GOVERNMENT In its dealings with the Class of 1952, the Department of English, History, and Government has been conscious of the fact that preparing a midshipman to be an efficient officer in the Fleet is a matter of adjusting him to a body of disciplines. ln the Service, skills thus attained are operative from the day the young ensign reports on board his first day to the day upon which, for the last time, he hauls down his admiral's pennant. When the Class of 1952 were plebes these disciplines took the form of writing clearly and tersely and reading good literature to develop skill in getting ideas from the written word. Youngster year was spent in the study of the history of modern Europe and American diplomacy. As the Second Class they learned the details of our national government and the principles of economics. In First Class year they have seen the in fluence of sea power on history and have read six great books about six different European nations, showing their culture and character. A term paper ended the four year course making use of all they had learned. CAPT. F. DAVIDSON, USN The accumulated skills developed by these studies are at graduation ready for the synthesis that makes the midshipman an officer in the Fleet. It is also the sound basis for his future in dependent thinking in positions of the highest administrative importance.
