College of Arts and Sciences This lias been llie greatest scIiodI year yet enjoyed by the College of Arts and Sciences. With enlarged facilities made possible by the new library building this department has been able to broad- en its scope and increase its efficiency materially. Additional opportunities for original investigations in the field of science have been made possible, thus increasing the students ]iossibilities for securing a more fundamental and lib- eral education. Being a man of genial nature and pro- ductive vision. Dean Carl F. Evring is a constant inspiration to the students. These qualities enriched by a high stan- dard of scholarship have done much to make his deanship over the College of Arts and Sciences so successful.

California Institiile of Technology College of Applied Science The increased enrollment this vear in the various departments of the College of Applied Science indicates a growing interest in the practical side of educa- tion. It indicates too that students who have gone out from this college are mak- ing good, which is the surest test as to the efficiency of any school. As no stream rises higher than its source, so no institution ri.ses higher than its leaders. Doctor Christen ,len- sen as Dean of the College of Applied Science has been a successful leader atid much ol the success of this College can be attributed to his splendid foresight and management. Dean Jensen is a man not given to many words. His chief form of expression is bv deeds rather than bv words and this qualitv makes him peculiarh litled for the position he holds. 17 I

Harvard University College of Education Education today is not the hit and miss proposition that it was in years past. The day of the old Hoosier school master is no more. The candidate for a teacher ' s job now must have a rich back- ground of technical training. The Brigham Young University is at- tempting to furnish the various districts with teachers who will be qualified to efficiently teach and exemplify. That success is being attained is evidenced in the increased demand by school boards for teachers trained at this institution. Under the able direction of Dean L. John Nuttall this department has reached a marked degree of efficiency. The splendid technical training he has received; the broad and varied prac- tical experience that has been his, com- bined with his unusual native ability, all contribute to making him well quali- fied to fill the position of Dean of the College of Education. College of Commerce The demand for efficient business leadership is ever increasing. Economic problems are becoming so complex that only tlie trained man or woman can long survive in the field of commerce. There are a few schools in America that provide education in business ad- ministration of a practical as well as of a theoretical nature. Among them the Brigham Young University is not the least. Indeed, because of the advance made since its organization, there has been an increasing demand for its stu- dents in the business world. The success of this college may be traced directly to Dean Harrison V. Hoyt. whose broad business experience together with his practical and analyti- cal mind, make him the efficient and wholly capable man that he is for the position of Dean of the College of Com- merce and Business Administration.
