The big event of the English Department during the 1958-1959 school year was the English Conference held on February 20th. Several colleges in the state partic- ipated in the conference sponsored by St. Olaf and Carleton. The topic of discus- sion was The Lyric, 1550-1660 During five meetings, students presented papers on various poets of this period and their poetry. Representing Carleton, Janet Knoop and Ejner Jensen spoke on A Definition of the Lyric. At the convocation service that Friday, poet and playwright Howard Nemerov read some of his poetry to Carleton students and guests attending the conference. In the fall the department gave a tea at the faculty club for the junior and senior English majors. In the spring, a picnic was held when the Professors, their wives and children and the senior English majors gathered for one last get-together before Spring finals. room too! ibm JaCk', Woodruff, head of Players, spends time in the class

GEGLOGY One of the most well-known and well-attended courses at Carleton is the intro- ductory course that the Geology Department offers on physical and historical ge- ology. Few people that have taken this course can forget the animals, rocks, and many other interesting displays that are housed in the geology offices and labora- toriesg none can forget the fascinating facts and ideas about the earth and its de- velopment that are presented in the course. This thorough and interesting condensation of the broad field of geology is, of course, succeeded by many intensive courses of study for those who major in ge- ology. Since the department was founded there have been 114 geology graduates from Carleton. Geology students look for stones and fossils in the sur- rounding area. flsgm in Z -, 0a.s fffli 12155 1, If t. , 'rf 5,5 sta' T. rvfxigi ' - , , N., -'uf 'ni , V 'h ':' Q .s,f'9'- f . .
