Spanish The palate is the roof of the mouth, the supported structure of man ' s mouth and the soft fold suspended from its posterior margin. As the sounds of speech come through the throat, the ' are resounded and given resonance as the ' hounce against the palate ol the mouth. Thus the roof of the mouth is an essential in human speech and communication. The SPANISH language has a similar function in the college ciuriculum, because it acts as the sounding hoard lor the thoughts and experiences of all those nations for whom it is ilu ' nati e tongue. The dexeloping student would be as impaired witii out the ideas disclosed in Spanish as the human ' oice wciuld he without the palate of the mouth.

H Dr. Irank Alcriitt Drama and Speech The DRAMA AND SPEECH di isions of the EngHsh department teach the de ' eloping student to communicate with his fellow man in a more effective manner. When the student studies drama, he learns to portray life and character by means of dialogue and action designed b ' a composer who has used prose or verse to express what he feels life is really like, whether it be realistic or fantastic. The student learns to put himself in the place ot another where he and his audience can experience the character ' s emotion and action. He learns how other people think and react, and as a result, he becomes more conscious of humanit ' as the oreatest of all teachers. When the student studies speech, he dexelops the faculty of uttering articulate sounds and words to express his thoughts. The speech department cultivates the art of speaking as a form of oral composition. A student learns to compose and organize the thoughts which come into his mind and then to utter them in distinct sounds. Miss M.

French The two fleshv folds, which surround the orifice of the mouth of man, ha e the primary function of keeping the mouth moist; they are called the lips. They also play an important part in the articula- tion of ' arious sounds which are used in human speech communica- tion. Similarly the culture of the world would be less articulate without the ideas of the French people expressed in their literature and lanyuaoe. This is the reason that FRENCH is such an integral part of the college curriculum. Certainly any student, who wished to enter the field of foreign service upon graduation, would find himself unprepared if he had not mastered the language of diplomacy. Yet the language is of benefit to any de eloping student, for eyen the sounds of this beautiful language are of aesthetic yalue.
