E.E., M.B.A., Dean oj the College o Cpmmerce and Business Administralion Professor of Business Administration The College of Commerce and business CAdministradon THE College of Commerce and Business Administration has had a very profit- able initial year from the standpoint of growth both from within out and from without in. One thing which is fast gaining favor is the solution of administrative problems on the basis of accumulated knowledge, rather than on the rule-of-thumb methods of the past. Leaders in the business and industrial world have been fast recognizing the growing opportunity and need of the Industrial and Busi- ness Engineer, such as the College of Commerce is working to develop. The Commercial Department of the past has always been able completely to justify itself by its large number of graduates who have unquestionably made good. The major ideal of the new College of Commerce is to perpetuate this reputation to which it has fallen heir. A principal contributory ideal is to develop judgment and vision, which above everything else, will enable the graduate to compete with graduates of the University of hard knocks. The practical work of the College is specially designed to shorten the period that College trained men ordinarily have to spend at routine, and rank and file work, before becoming responsible executives.

Dean oj the College of Arts and Sciences Professor oj Biology The College of Arts and Sciences T HE very large enrollment, including many graduate students, abundantly justified the establishment of the College of Arts and Sciences at the Brigham Young University. It includes the departments of Art, Biology, Chemistry, Economics, English, Geology and Geography, History, Mathematics, Modern Languages, and La.in; Music, Physical Education, Physics, Poli:ical Science, Psychology, Public Speaking, Social and Recreational Lead- ership, and Sociology. The primary purpose of this college is to meet the needs of stu- dents who desire a broad and liberal education that will enable them to find and take their places in the complex civilization of today. Abundant opportunity is provided for those who have ambition for specialized study in engineering, medicine, law, or who desire to train for religious, political or social leadership. Preparation for original investigation in the fields of science is emphasized. Graduate students who have ambtion for a higher degree will find the college rich in opportunity. Educational standards equal to those of other instilutions are maintained so that transfer does not involve difficulty or loss of credit.

S., Director nj Extension Division The Extension ' Division THE purpose of the Extension Division is to carry the information and message of the University out to the people of the Church everywhere, and to make education available to those who do not have the opportunity to do residence work. The Extension Division is divid; d into three bureaus : Social Service, Cor- respondence Instruction, Lectures and Entertainments. Through these departments it is expected ' .o reach out int o the connnunities of the State and assist them by de- veloping local leadership ar.d by bringing ihem in touch with sources of inspiration and information. During the first vear of the existence of the Extension Division, the University has reached over three hundred students by organized instruction in extension classes and correspondence courses. The number of people who have been reached by lecture, denionstra.ion, and entertainment exceeds fifty thousand, not including the three thousand five hundred who were in attendance at classes during Leader- ship Week. Extension work of the L niversity is a growing factor in religious and general education in the inter-mountain country; and promises great things for the future. It will endeavor to collect and centralize the vast amount of information that is here and make it available to the people at large. This work will act as a great leavfr.er out in the communities, and will also be a supporting abutment for the Institution.
