Up these steps walk the future ' s scientists and artists. The ever-increasing growth of Arts and Sciences, Wyoming ' s largest college, reached a new high again this year. With the addition of the three new depart- ments of anthropology, geography and psychology, A S boasts now eighteen departments and one divi- sion. Two hundred and thirty full-time faculty mem- bers and numerous graduate assistants work to pro- vide A S students with well-rounded, liberal educa- tions. Research was carried on in every department under the college ' s steadily improving graduate pro- gram. In 1967, for the first time, a doctorate degree was offered in psychology and there were plans for a doctorate in math to he offered next year. A S was far from completing its growing streak. Construction of the twelve-million dollar science center started this fall and when completed in 1968, it would pro- vide the college with physical and biological science centers, a science library, computer center and class- room area. In the ' talking stages were plans for a fine arts center which would provide facilities for art, music and speech departments. Dean of Arts and Sci- ences, Gerald Meyer, received his B.S., M.S., and Ph.D. degrees in chemistry. He devoted much time for three years to the science complex. His book on the principles of chemistry was recently translated into Japanese for use in that country. | i S6 A journahst concentrates on setting some type.

future business leaders The College of Commerce and Industry ranked fourth among colleges in enrollment of majors but second in student-credit-hours taught. Students enrolled in accounting, business administration, office adminis- tration and secretarial science, economics and statis- tics. The Business and Economic Research Division, the college ' s formalized research imit, fostered both applied and basic research regarding Wyoming business and industry. Commerce and Industry ac- knowledged the generosity of two university alumni — Ford Motor Company Vice President John S. Bu- gas, who underwrote a distinguished professorship for the economics department, and Mrs. Myra Fox Skelton, who established a trust agreement aimed toward a program of excellence in accoimting edu- cation. Dean M. C. Mundell received his B.S. and M.S. degrees from the University of Wyoming. He did additional graduate work at the University of Maryland. Dean M. C.
