HALL OF GOVERNMENT DUR SCHOOL As our school grows in importance and capability to serve during these war years, so it grows physically, and is increas- ingly better able to offer its students improvements and inno- vations on the campus. The year 1943 has seen the addition of lovely Lisner Audi- torium to the George Washington University. Situated on the corner of 21st and H Streets, that noble white marble edifice Is a striking token of the generosity of the late Abram Lisner, who made possible its construction. The auditorium was christened with the holding of Winter Convocation there on February 22, 1943. At last George Washington graduates have had their degrees conferred upon them on the platform of their own auditorium! The sheer beauty of the hall and the joy of possession permeated the whole ceremony and made it one of especial and lasting significance, fitting to that ostentious occasion. The University has made arrangements to offer the ac- commodations of another residence hall to the part-time women students. The new dormitory contributes to the solu- tion of a most urgent problem of war-time Washington — the acute housing shortage. Now George Washington ' s women night school students will be able to be accommodated much more adequately and conveniently as the new hall sup- plements the facilities offered by Strong Hall on our campus. The School of Art has been improved and enlarged as a result of the arrangement with the Corcoran Art School where- by our students attend classes at the Corcoran Art Gallery. The faculty members are members of the staffs of both schools. This cooperative measure has worked very well to the mutual benefit of both organizations. The removal of the Art School from the old building on G Street has made possible the utilization of that building by the School of Engineering for their expanding program. Where embryo artists once sketched and painted, now future engi- neers learn drafting and mechanical drawing. If seems symbolic of current trends that as the practical arts emerge Into a position of tremendous importance in this time of war, the pursuit of the fine arts, while never discon- tinued or even discouraged, retires temporarily to the back- ground to prepare all the while diligently for intelligent, efficient planning of the post-war world. Slide rules now hold sway where once the pallette reigned, but our George Wash- ington art students have moved into a position where they have materially Increased their training facilities and advan- tages, At George Washington, the studies of the fine arts and of the practical arts go forward together, both in stride with the war-time tempo.
