' ' Dean The BLUE-JAY 1933 ARTS FACULTY Graduate School FOR those students who have completed undergraduate work and wish to obtain a higher degree, opportunities for research work in the various departments are afforded by the Graduate School. Candidates for the Master ' s degree are re- quired to complete one full year in residence at the university. Study in the Graduate School differs from undergraduate study in that, while extending the range of the student ' s knowl- edge, it develops judgment, initiative, independent thinking, and the spirit of research. The Graduate School grants credits for advanced work under- taken in the pre-clinical department of the School of Medicine. Opportunity is available for a limited number of specially qualified students to engage in research upon problems select- ed by the several departments. Graduate work is conducted under the administraiton of the Graduate Council appointed by the president of the university. The Council has general supervision of the rules and regula- tions of the university regarding the administration of gradu- ate work and advanced degrees. All applicants for graduate courses must be approved by the Council before being admitted. The Graduate School is associated with the University College and its faculty includes instructors in that department. The Rev. Thomas S. Bowdern, S. J., is dean of both schools. Some classes are held at night to enable adult students to attend. [24]

This practice covers a variety of practical prescription experi- ence seldom found elsewhere. In the dispensary, the classroom theories are put into practice. By meeting and overcoming the problems that arise during his period on duty, the student is trained to take over the respon- sibilities of his life vocation. In order to afford all pharmacy students a chance in this end of the work, a working staff composed of seven or eight stu- dents and the supervisor is almost continually on duty. The dispensary is open daily from 11 to 12 a. m. and from 1 to 3 p. m. and from 10 to 3 o ' clock on Saturdays. A record of all the prescriptions filled since the opening of the dispensary in 1905 are kept. During the past twenty-eight years over 225,000 prescriptions have been filled in this dis- pensary. The records show that the greatest number of pre- scriptions filled on one day was made on February 28, 1931, when 103 prescriptions were filled in three hours. Although there are a few remunerations for prescriptions filled in the dispensary, most of them are filled with no charge, and a large quantity of medicine is given in this manner each year. Since 1916 the College of Phramacy has maintained a Class A rating. The progressive attitude which has kept the college among the foremost in adopting newer ideas in formulating its curriculum has had much to do with the success of its graduates. Rev. John J. McInerny, S. J. Regent The BLUE-JAY 1933 [23]

Eleanor Lynch Rose Cangelosi University College ORGANIZED in December, 1931, as a major department of the university, the University College has already become the third largest department on the campus with an enrollment of nearly 200. The new college was designed to afford a more compact and centralized organization of teach- er ' s courses and evening classes. The plan was adopted because of the interest shown by teach- ers, professional and junior college students and adults, in the graduate courses taught in the various departments of the university. Under this plan all courses formerly taught out- ride the regular class schedules in the College of Arts and Sciences, and in the College of Commerce and Journalism, are incorporated in the University College. The college is closely allied to the Graduate School, which makes possible the grouping of administrative duties under one head and a special faculty. The Rev. Thomas S. Bowern, S. J., is dean of both departments. The college enables women students to receive Arts degrees from the university. Emphasis is placed upon courses in edu- cation and Certificates in Education are earned in this depart- ment. In order to accommodate adult students, many of the courses in the University College are held at night. This year, for the first time, class officers were elected in the University College. , ..ret Hernan Rev. T. S. Bowdern, S. J. Dean The BLUE-JAY 1933 [25]
