LOUISE P. MILLER Piano, Organ, and Harmony Huntington College, Containebleu Conservatoire Americoine, University of Chicago, University of North Carolina The Brevard Department of Music believes that music constitutes a significant part of Western Culture and an acquaintance with it is fundamentally a necessary part of the liberal arts curriculum. Students participate as members of musical groups or as students who are preparing for vocations in the field of music. It is believed that real satisfaction comes only with the development of skills to the highest possible degree within the limitations of the time and talent of the student. NELSON F. ADAMS Voice A.

MARY GLADYS LOBDELL Biology B. S. Mississippi State College for Women M. S. University of Illinois Biology Biology is important to students interested in science, engineering, nursing, medicine, and technology. It also sheds light on the marvels of the scientific age in which we are living. The laboratory ap- proach to learn with its emphasis upon accuracy, and its uncompro- mising search for truth, is basic to modern education. NELLIE McGEE Chemistry B. S. Kent State University M. S. Columbia University Chemistry Man is a rational being, striving in many ways for understanding of the world in which he lives.
