It started with only 300 students meeting at what is now Webb Air Force Base in 1946. Today the campus consists of one hundred acres and 1,100 students. The once mesquite covered land has been replaced by a Library, Science Building, Administration Office, Practical Arts Building, Music Building, Student Union Building, Gymnasium, and two dorms. The Administration Building has been a part of Howard County Junior College for as long as the school has been at the present site. Located in this building are business offices, the administration department, and classrooms. The auditorium furnishes a gathering place for large assemblies. Serious class dis- cussions, as well as lighthearted entertain- ment, are held in the large assembly room. Connected to the auditorium are dressing rooms, a small stage, and classrooms used by Mr. Lander ' s drama and speech students.

Courses in algebra, trigonom- etry, analytical geometry, the calculus, and differential equations are taught by the staff members. Robert Bradberry Chairman B.A., Hardin Simmons M.A., Rutgers Emily Elrod E.S., Southern Methodist M.A., Southern Methodist James Doerr B.S., Texas Arlington M.S., North Texas A full schedule of mathematics is available to students who attend the night classes. Mr. Bradberry ' s class in algebra is well attended. The casts of the drama productions spend much time in preparation. Speech Drama Department Martin Landers Chairman A.B., East Central State B.D., Southwestern Seminary M.A., Baylor Training in all types of oral expression may be obtained by taking courses in the Speech Department. The students gain experience in appearing before large audiences and in talking to smaller groups. Speaking for radio and television is featured in some courses as is speech for classroom teachers. In the drama activities experience is gained not only in acting but also in scene design and construction and in make-up. Panel discussions develop the abilities of the students in extemporaneous speaking. John W. Stanley Zr. z:: . z: . z : zz- ' .z: M.A., Sam Houston :r.:gar. Music Department The Music Department of Howard County Junior College gives music courses of value to all students that they may acquaint themselves with music as one aspect of a liberal culture either as appreciative listeners or as trained par- ticipants. Courses are offered in the training of music teachers, choir directors, church organists, and in other professional activities. The department is a member of the Texas Association of Music Schools. Larry Stanley B.M., Baylor 1 ■ ' . A Sum Hrjs: Mr. John Stanley directs the stage band. This aggre- gation of musicians fur- nishes entertainment for many occasions, including assemblies, basketball games, and service club meetings. The many voices of the college choir are well trained to blend together, and they do, with a very pleasing effect on the ear. When it is known that this group is to appear on the stage of the auditorium, a full house is assured. There is the sound of music at all hours of the day in the Music Build- ing. The doors of the sound-proof practice rooms must be opened for practice on the pianos to be heard. Language Department The Language Department offers courses in several mod- ern languages. At present Spanish, German, and French are being featured. The laboratory is an advantage to the students in learning to speak and understand the spoken language. Mr. Fisher instructs students in the use of the listening posts in the language laboratory. The staff of the department makes use of several visual and audio aids in their teaching. Mr. Dunn and students select records for playing. tafc lack Dunn Chairman B.A., Texas M.A., Texas Carol Hoadley French B.A., Dickinson M.A., Middlebury James Fisher German B.A., Princeton M.B.A., Harvard Tommy Buckner Chairman B.S., Texas Tech M.S., Texas Tech Agriculture Department The courses offered by the Agriculture Department are of value in training students for work in rural communities and small towns, and, especially, in laying a foundation for those who in- tend to major in argriculture subjects.

Night Classes As the moon rises over the Administration Building classes for the night ses- sion of Howard County Junior College are convening. Students who have day time jobs, servicemen from Webb Air Force Base, and day students who have scheduling difficulties comprise the major portion of the night classes. Courses offered during this time period parallel and are in no way different from those taught during the daylight hours. The Business Adminis- tration Department and those courses conducted in the Practical Arts Build- ing are the most popular. Rosie M.
