The industrial arts course is planned to give the student a general basic education rather than a delin- ite vocational training. However the course has a specific value for it teaches the student to appreciate a good job, so that he will be satisfied only with the best. The student learns engineering drawing as it is used in the industrial world by engineers and de- signers, and as the language in which are expressed and recorded the ideas and information necessarv for the building of machines and structures. They 'learn to give exact and positive information regarding every detail of the machine or structure existing in his imagination. The shop course enriches the intellect and at the same time allows the student to see in his finished project the definite results of logical, careful and persistent planning and thinking. The satisfaction of work well done is one of the greatest rewards exf pericnced by the students. Another objective is to assist in better choice and use of industrial products and service.

Witliout history, one would have little understanding of the world to- day and no ability to interpret it for tomorrow. The purpose of teaching history is to put the experiences of the past before the student, so that when history repeats itself, he will not be taken by surprise. The lessons that we learn from history will be remembered, long after we have forgotten meaningless dates. Courses in the history department include American, Euro- pean, English and Latin-American history, economics, inter- national relations, .social problems and psychology.
