LjuiUl n 3 Attendant with the increased enrollment of the Univer- sity during the past few years, there has been an exten- sive building program on the University campus. This period has seen the erection of the Men ' s Dormitory, the Field hlouse, the Women ' s Club Building, the Museum, and the open air Mary Rippon Memorial Theatre. Now under construction are a new engineering building and two wings of the Liberal Arts Building. All of these build- ings are fashioned in a style adapted from rural Italian architecture and developed by Charles Z. Klander. This architectural style of the University buildings is individual among American universities. The Men ' s Dormitory houses about four hundred and fifty men, most of the first year men being required to live there. It is divided into four halls: Baker, Fleming, Hel- lems, and Ketchum. Each hall is a unit, having its own proctor and dining hall. The field house is an important part of the University ' s ex- panding athletic program. Within the Field House is a 220-yard track; hence, it may be used for indoor track meets, as it was this year for the First Annual Invitational Track Meet, in which representatives from several of the surrounding universities competed. Also, there is a mov- able basketball floor, and for these contests a seating capacity of four thousand. Again it is useful in that football practices may be held there when the weather is too incle- ment for outdoor practice. The Museum building has provided new class rooms for the English Language De- partment, leaving Woodbury for the use of the Business School and the Extension Divi- sion, hialf of the first floor of the building is devoted to a small Art Gallery which displays the works of well-known contem- porary artists, in the other half of the first floor is the new museum room. The new wings on the Arts Building will provide more class rooms for the College of Arts and Sciences. The Sociology Department, which now uses the basement of the Law Building, will be housed in a part of one of the wings. The Fine Arts Department, which has most of its class rooms in the old Infirmary, will also have a part of the new addition to Arts. The new engineering building will be used to house more class- rooms and larger laboratories for the Col- lege of Engineering. The Women ' s Club Building is used for the social functions of the Women ' s Club. It also houses a few of the women students of the University. Page 28

Mr. Fred E. Aden, as Registrar and Counselor, has the countless number of duties required of his office. He must keep a!l of the academic records of the students before their entrance into the university and during their college careers. He must keep statistics on all classes and students. The records of the transfer students must be assembled and evaluated. He is responsible for the publishing of the many catalogues and bulletins which must be sent out every year, and he handles all the general correspondence of the university. In addition to all of these duties, Mr. Aden gives guidance and counsel in vocational fields. A vocational interest test is given, and interviews are held with all who desire them. Hundreds of students have taken advantage of this ser- vice in order to gain an insight of their vocational abilities. Scl. cnooi o ur in e Miss Louise Kieninger is Superintendent of the School of Nursing. This School has kept up with the advances in preventive medicine and in the social sciences which have made nursing the complex profession it is. At least two years of collegiate work are required before one may enter the School of Nursing. Its curriculum follows a definite educational plan, which includes community health experience as well as hospital service. The ten in- structors and their assistants teach and supervise the stu- dents while in the wards. Members of the faculty of the School of Medicine give instruction in the basic sciences, along with lectures and clinics. MR. ADEN MISS KIENINGER Page 27
