x The English Department Last fall the English Department de- serted their old post in the English Building to take a different residence in the newly constructed classrooms in the basement of the Memorial Library. Under the leader- ship of Colonel Charles C. Mather, the Eng- lish instructors are continually putting forth their best efforts to prepare cadets for future life, where more emphasis is con- stantly being put upon English. Mr. Plebe may have only a hypothetical knowledge of English upon entering Culver, but this isn't his misfortune when he walks through the Iron Gate. During a cadet's third and fourth class years, he is given an introduction into American literature and finds out what the various parts of speech are and when and how to use them. If you spot a first or second classman who looks like he is ready to tear someone apart, he has probably just left the Library. Not only is one of the main objectives of the English Department to give their students a good insight into the field of literature, but every instructor does his best to get cadets to form and express their own opinions. Even if it is a case of getting an individual a little mad. A gentfeman with ideas of his own, Captain Duff was one of those who guided First Classmen through the new senior English course. From the crags of Odysseus' Ithaca to Mark Twain's Mississippi we wandered. Even more extensive, at least in the geographical sense, were the globe-circling jaunts of Colonel Hodgkin's Geography sec- tion. One of Culver's academic innovations this year, the subject provsd hifihlv intere'tir'ig to the Fourth Classmen shown below.
