EXTENSION DIVISION All the world — our campus is the new slogan adopted by Lowry Nelson, head of the Brigham Young University Extension Division. The present aim was definitely implied by the organizers who, in 1921, instituted the Ex- tension Division for the purpose of providing educational and social opportunities for those who are unable to participate in resident instruction. Two different groups of individuals are served by the department: Those who matriculate in the University and those who are benefited without formal registration. The latter are reached by the lecturers and entertainments fostered by the department and by the package library which it maintains. To the mdividual desiring University credit, a variety of well-chosen correspondence courses and extension classes is offered. With the territory represented by the 750 matriculated individuals stretching from Hawaii to Islands, it is truly no exaggeration when one says: The sun never sets on our campus.

COLLEGE OF COMMERCE AND BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION Although the College of Commerce and Business Administration does not rule against women, it has had a strikingly low number in its graduating classes. In 1927, the sixth year after its organization, the department boasted one feminine graduate. The growth of this college from ninety- six students in 1921 to two hundred twenty-seven in 1927, illustrates conclusively the fact that students are realizing the obvious advantage of better training before competing in the specialized business world. The College aims to equip the individual for leadership in finance and industry by giving him a thorough knowledge of commercial problems as well as practice in business admmistration. Harrison V. Hoyt Dean Harrison V. Hoyt, in addition to academic training, has had valuable practical experience in the work and thoroughly understands the requirements and purpose of the college which he supervises. Front Row — Ed.

Clawson Y. Cannon Dean SUMMER SCHOOL A combined education and vacation is of- fered by Young University Summer School. Regular classes, although not as numerous as those scheduled other quarters are varied and conducted by specialized instructors. The in- creasing enrollment still permits closer association and individual instruction not possible in larger groups. The campus is so situated as to afford ex- cellent settings for unique social events, valuable factors in socialization as well as recreation. A second term at Aspen Grove is replete with opportunities for research and field work. Although his duties as Dean of this depart- ment were, relatival) ' speaking, assumed recently, Clawson Y. Cannon is well prepared for his position. His enthusiasm and interest in his work wins the admiration of his associates. Second Roiif — Guy C. Wilson, Murray O. H ayes, Parley A.
