C. HOWARD SMITH B.R.E., M. MUS. Head of Music Department Music. College Choir New Techniques Learned Strange sights and sounds were heard last fall as Music Appreciation students tuned the pop bottles or tightened the rubber bands on their homemade instruments. Important in this growing department is a new major in church music. Plans for next year include a major in music education. A collection of paintings done by Gene Johnson while on his sabbatical leave to Mexico last year beautified the walls of the student center last fall. Art students this year are benefiting from the techniques Mr. Johnson learned v hile he was gone. PIIILLIP GUSTAFSON M. Mu . Voice, Piano HELEN KENNEDY M.A. Music History.

W. ROBERT SMITH ThD. Head of Philosophy Department Philosophy. Bible. Senior Advisor CLARENCE B. BASS Ph.D. Bible. Philosophy. Theology, Freshman Advisor. F.M.F. Philosophies Evaluated Worrying about universals or undistributed middles may seem absurd to beginning logicians. However, once one has mastered the routines of syllogistic reasoning he is better able to understand basic philosophical concepts. The upper division student of philosophy comes to know and evaluate some of the world's foremost attitudes toward life. His own philosophy becomes more important and an appreciation of the wide variety of philosophic concepts commences. CLIFFORD E. ANDERSON Ph.D. Bible. Religious Education Practical Work Provided Twin City churches provide the setting for much practical work done in connection with Religious Education courses. Each student chooses the type of work such as visitation, or Sunday School teaching, in which he is most interested. The department then finds a church that has an opening in the field of his choice. Courses are designed for personal development as well as acquaintance with the Bible and problems of religious education. ESTHER SABEL Ph.B., M.R.E. Bible. Religious Education 24
