It is the province of the Graduate School to plan and to carry out, in all divisions of the University, work which extends beyond that for the first degree. The undergraduate is largely concerned with laying foundations for achievement rather than with achievement itself; with acquiring an understanding and an appreciation of both the past and the present in many fields of learning. The Graduate School builds upon this foundation and attempts to guide those who can profit by the opportunity, to a broader and a more definite knowledge in a hmited field. Its aim is an intimate working knowledge, an inter- preting knowledge, rather than an appreciation based upon a speak- ing acquaintance. It is also deeply concerned with the training of college and university teachers, and with the training of investi- gators in arious fields. It is designed to help those whose aim is to know thoroughly and then to accomplish, or to know thoroughly through accomplishment. U i Cc t - ' C . ( Zyi CZ H. Page 20
