PHILOSOPHY Arturo FalUco The fruits of a college education should be a philosophical attitude. This quota- tion from William James has become the guiding theme of the Philosophy Depart- ment. The works of the great thinkers. old and new, and the effect of these works on the minds and hearts of man are duly considered under the guidance of this department. LIBRARY SCIENCE Two professions for the price of one is the goal of the library science minors. They will be both teachers and librarians when they are graduated. This new addi- tion, the Library Science Department, was begun as part of the Chicago Elemen- tary School Library movement, which is one of the most outstanding of its type in the country.

CLASS OFFICERS P Harper Philbin President James Morley Vice-President Miriam Huferd Secretary Patricia Baker Treasurer Leaders of the school, the Senior class can look back on the past year as a grand climax to their four years at the college. A class that always took an active part in all school activities the class of ' 48 started off typically by sponsoring the yearbook. Other activities during the year took on a thespian air as the class treated the freshman to a home-grown theater party, with home-grown talent and home made theatrical refreshments of lemonade and chocolate patties. Still stage-struck the class went as a group to see Lady Windermere ' s Fan . They returned from this evening to produce a play of their own, The Male Ani- mal , A triumph, the play had a professional air and made every senior proud to be part of the class responsible for this hit production. Late in May the last minute rush of activities filled all the remaining days. The juniors feted the graduates at a desert luncheon. The traditional prom was a dreamy affair in candlelight at the Privated Club of the Furniture Mart. A class - luncheon, the day before THE BIG DAY, was held in the Stevens Hotel. Graduation always leaves a gap in many school clubs and organizations. The class of ' 48 leaves not a mere gap but a huge hole in such organizations as Tempo, Fellowship, K.M.E., Emblem, and W.A.A,
