The College of Medicine HENRY S. HOUOIITON Dean Ph.B. (1901) Ohio State AI.I). (190 )) Johns Hopkins WITH classes meeting regularly in (lie now medical laboratories and tlio university hospital hearing completion, the college of Medicine is making u greater bid for fame tlian ever l efore. At what other university could future M.I). ' s find better accommodations for learning their profession. ' Appreciation should be extended to the Rockefeller Foundation and the State of Iowa for providing two such fine buildings. Henry S. Houghton came here from the Peking Union Medical College, in Peking, China, to take over the duties of dean of the college of Medicine. A group of capable professors and instructors offer a course in medicine second to none in the country. Besides the general, the children ' s and psychopathic hospitals offer an enormous service to the people of the state in their accommodations. Hundreds of cases receive treatment each month in these institutions and only the best and most careful care is given. A staff of international note is in charge of the work and the most modern methods and equipment bring about remarkable developments in treatment.

The College of Liberal Arts GEORGE F. KAY Dean B.A. (1900) rniv. ' i-sity of Toronto M.A. (1902) I ' 11 i versify of Toronto AMONG such a pot-purri of courses offered in tlic college of Liberal Arts, it is difficult to ascertiiin wli:it tlic motivating influence behind the organization really is. After consideration of the number of fields covered and the diversified subjects offered, the decision may well rest with that of creating a broad background for the student, whether or not he intends to enter a professional school. Some attend to gain knowledge; others to pass of prerequisites for professional work. Those who merely come to school seldom survive the work before entering the sacred portals of mysterious professionalism. Thus the man or woman is fitted not to conquer the industrial world or to set the uni- verse on fire with a superman scheme -but with a working knowledge of society and its rela- tions. New ideas are born in the places left bare by the shattering of old ideals; refreshed traditions take the positions formerly occupied by dusty practices. A man is made.

The College of Dentistry FRANK T. BREENE Dean D.D.S. (1888) University of Iowa .M.I). (18!:i) University of Iowa FROM a small organization offering two lecture courses, each of six months duration, to approximately 350 embryo molar extractors with a curriculum increased to four years lias the college of Dentistry grown. It has been termed a factory for painless dentists but serious doubt has been placed on this .statement by those undergoing treatment in the clinic. The college maintains a public service of great value in its infirmary. Here junior and senior students, equipped as in a modern office, render service at cost price to all making application. All work is done under the supervision of capable instructors and counts toward a degree. The completeness of the course manifests the thoroughness that is typical of professional training in this age. Each distinct process from the most minute measurement to the largest operation receives careful study. In other words, when the student graduates from this de- partment he is ready to take care of the large general number of calls for treatment that he will receive.
