T The Music Department of Brenau is the largest department in the college. With eleven instructors, all specialists in their fields, the music students have a variety of training which few other schools offer.

Ma- dame Ringo, Madame Vicarino, and Signor Prosperoni teach voice while Mr. Zachara, Mrs. Feldman and Mr. I-Iickok teach pianog and Mr. Hiclcok and Miss Morehead teach organ. Mr. Leide and Miss Dameron con- duct the orchestra and band respectively while Mrs. Michaelis and Mrs. Zachara have charge of some of the theory courses in Music History, and Music Appreciation. Though the sounds from the practice rooms aren't always as enticing as they could be we are always proud of our mu- sic students in public performance.

ATT!-IE EI. Though a liberal arts college is not required to give any vocational courses Brenau offers a two- year secretarial course for those so inclined. With Miss Todd and Mrs. Langston in charge, courses in typing, shorthand, filing, and accounting are given. With but a limited number of students this depart- ment is thorough and efficient and the students with secretarial certificates have good training. Mrs. Maude Fiske LaFleur, Miss Lois Gregg Secor, Mrs. Geo. Pilgrim, Miss Florence Overton. Brenau's curriculum offers a wide variety of cul- tural subjects among which is Art. Under teachers who have been well trained in all phases of painting the art students find able instruction. Mr. Seigler and Mrs. Porter show us the beauties of oil painting, still life, portraits and many other phases. Mr. Meadows, in the practical arts, teaches the art of ceramics. Truly more should be in this department studying and gain- ing a broad cultural background. Miss Bertha Todd, Mrs. Tina Langston. Brenau's School of Speech is as widely praised as the School of Music. It is excellently directed by Mrs. LaFleur and Miss Secor. ln this department the students not only learn the fundamentals of speech but the fine art of act- ing with the concomitant arts of make-up, cos- tuming, directing and conversation. Mrs. Pil- grim, also a member of the department, has courses in debate techniques and conversation. Fully equipped and efficiently taught the Speech Department has as many majors as any other department. Miss Florence Overton has watched its growth since it was first organized. Mrs. Laura Porter, Mr. Seigler
