These tasks are accomplished by hand and machine processes. The Arts and Crafts course aims primarily to develop basic under- takings and skills through working with ceramics, leather, copper enameling, copper tooling, and other materials. It includes the de- velopment of an ability to use leisure time by filling it with self- satisfying work.
