THE COLLEGE OF PHARMACY WILBER J. TEETERS Dean EVERYTHING that goes into the making of an expert druggist, except work in mixing cokes and olive nut sandwiches, is included in the college of pharmacy, a college in which they purify alcohol instead of drinking it. Pharmacy as a profession spans 4000 years. The well-stocked drug store has upwards of thirty thousand items on its shelves collected from every country. The story of panacea hunters reads like a romance and the preparation and manu- facture of these drugs into various Pharmaceuticals for the alleviation of human ills is a most fascinating .study. The Pharmacy College was established in 188; ' ) by the state association mainly through the efforts of J. II. Harrison and George II. Shafer. After 19:52 only tin- four year course with the degree Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy will be given. WALTER F. SCHULTZ FKEDREC C. SWAN HKXKY C. MILLER FORREST S. MOORE Twenty-five .
