DEAN GEORGE NEFF STEVENS Law School Good afternoon, Mr. Smith. I am Tom Jones, the University of Wash- ington graduate who called you about a position with your law firm. Oh yes, Mr. Jones. I remember your call. I ' ve heard many good things about the University ' s Law School. Your school has the largest law library west of the Mississippi, does it not? Yes, sir, and our school is convenient to federal and state courts, enab- ling us to witness the trial of actual cases. You realize, of course, that you are applying for a position out of your own state, and may be at some disadvantage regarding the lows of this state? I don ' t think so, sir. Our school prepares its students for practice in any state or jurisdiction where the Anglo-American legal system prevails. Our school is a member of the Association of American Law Schools, you know, and is approved by the Council on Legal Education and Admission to the Bar of the American Bar Association. SAVERY HALL Library students practice be- hind reference desk. Didn ' t you know? I ' m studying in the School of Librarian- ship. It ' s a graduate school to equip students as specialists in libraries devoted to law, medicine, engineering, business and other technical fields. Really? I always thought the School of Librorionship pre- pared students to work in libraries like the one in my home town. No, only students who have already obtained their bache- lor ' s degree from a college or university of good standing may gain admission to this school. But one of my friends told me that he was taking some courses from your school, and he ' s still an undergraduate. During an undergraduate ' s senior year, it is sometimes pos- sible for him to gain librorionship knowledge by taking sev- eral introductory courses from the School. avi and librarianship 26 IRVING LIEBERMAN Director of Librorionship

DEAN GORDON D. MARCKWORTH College of F orestry forestry and graduate school Hello, sir. I am John Baker. I wish to apply for a posi- tion on the State Forestry Service. John Baker, hmmm. Didn ' t you graduate from the University of Washington College of Forestry? the col- lege that aids our department in research develop- ments? the college accredited by the Society of Ameri- can Foresters? It offers a four-year curricula leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Forestry with spe- cialization in forest management, logging engineering, and forest products, doesn ' t it? Yes, I was wondering . . . I don ' t need a sales talk on your college, young man. I just need its graduates. Logging is industrially signifi- cant in the Pacific Northwest, you know. Now tell me what can you do? • Well, I . . . ' Never mind. I know what a young man with your good training can do. Can you start work next week? You know, Tom, I ' ve often heard the Graduate School mentioned around the University, but I never hove been quite sure just exactly what it is. You ' re a graduate stu- dent — maybe you could clear it up for me. I con see where you could easily become confused, Jim. There are graduate students in almost every course of study offered here. The Graduate School is simply the administrative department that keeps track of all these students and admits them to higher degrees. Ad- mission to the status of graduate student is by approved application. In order to maintain a ' clear status ' rating, a student must have a 3.0 grade average. The Graduate School demands more of its students than the undergraduate school, as you con well imag- ine. In order to develop a spirit of research, the gradu- ate student is thrown more upon his own resources and has to measure up to a more severe standard. The University is constantly increasing its emphasis on graduate work, because it feels that the better citizens of tomorrow should be equipped with advanced train- ing, research and scholarship.

HARKINS The University Medical School was having an open house. I was in- terested, so I decided to drop down for an hour or so. I stayed not one but four hours, tramping the halls of the modern Medical-Dental building with increasing fascination. I discovered that the school not only strives to prepare a selected group of students for the practice of medicine through the best edu- cational techniques in the field, but it attempts to develop continuing educational programs for graduate and postgraduate physicians. It also conducts an active program of research and investigation. I learned that the University School of Medicine is fully accredited. In addition, it is affiliated with the King County Hospital, United States Public Health Service Hospital, Seattle Veterans ' Administra- tion, Children ' s Orthopedic Hospital, Firlond Sanatorium, Univer- sity of Washington Child Health Center, and state mental hospitals at Sedro Woolley, Medical Lake, and Steilacoom. 27
