M. D. FARRAR Dean of Agriculture School of Agriculture The School of Agriculture, under the capable leader- ship of Dr. M. D. Farrar, claims a good portion of the student body and is recognized as one of the foremost in the nation. The study of agriculture is no longer confined to the raising of crops. The modern agriculturist must learn everything from Bugology to mechanical engineering. Clemson provides extensive courses in agricultural engi- neering, animal husbandry, agronomy, agricultural eco- nomics, botany, dairying, entomology, horticulture, and poultry. All is not limited to the classroom. In the afternoons, groups of the students may be seen engaging in the science of spraying trees and grafting. Spaced through- out the semester are occasional field trips. These provide instruction in its most appealing form. The ever expanding field of agriculture presents a challenge to the teacher, to the men in research, and to the student.

School of Arts and Science The School of Arts and Science began in 1889 as an answer to the need for liberal education for college students. It attempts to give the student an opportunity to concentrate in certain fields that may be helpful in laying foundations for various professional pursuits. In its curriculum are found those subjects which have for centuries been regarded as embodying the best cultural traditions of the western world— a study of foreign languages and English, mathematics, natural and social sciences, history and politics. With Dr. H. L. Hunter as the guiding light, so to speak, this school which furnishes the basic nucleus for any educational process has constantly striven to improve the quality of its education and to equip each student with the fundamental tools of knowledge and culture in order that he may take his place in society as a competent and independent citizen.
