DEDICRTIOI) Working in close cooperation with stu- dents, alumnae, trustees and friends of Agnes Scott as president of the college, Dr. McCain is planner of its many improvements. He is a busy man; yet he is never too occupied to discuss with a student her individual problems, never so rushed that he cannot take time off for evening ves- per services in the chapel. For a number of years the Univer- sity Center has been one of his proj- ects and it is largely through his un- tiring effort, his farsightedness and his careful planning that this dream is being realized. The editors are proud to dedicate the 1941 SILHOUETTE to our able and popular president. JURIES ROSS mccRin

e m o r y u n i v e r s i t y Emory University, with a history of over a hundred years steady growth, has its main campus in the Druid Hills section of Atlanta. Moved from Oxford, Georgia, in 1914, this campus is large, with extended woody areas and beautiful new buildings which boast the best in modern equipment. There are two out-lying junior colleges which are a part of the University — one in Oxford, the other in Vaidosta, Georgia. Emory ' s program is varied and sound. In addition to undergraduate courses in the arts and sciences and certain of the professions, it offers graduate work in divinity, medicine, nursing, law, and library science. Al- though no professional schools have been added since 1930, certain pro- grams of professional interest have been worked out. There is a laboratory technician ' s course, a journalism program, and a program for the training of teachers. Emory University is the strongest of the endowed universities in our five southeastern states, and its influence is extensive. It offers substantial foundation upon which to build, and without them the University Center could not be developed. Through it in turn, there are great opportunities for Emory to strengthen and extend its service.
