Design Class Pottery The Art Department is reflected in the success of its graduates — many have made enviable records in a short time after graduating. The art staff consists of eight superior teachers of wide and varied experience in the field of education as well as in fine arts. The housing in the main floor (six studios and exhibition room) of the Arts Building with up-to-date equipment lends an atmosphere conducive to the finest of creative work. A creative-expression-design method of teach- ing places emphasis on development and thinking rather than on skills. Appreciation is cultivated by visits to The International and other shows in Pittsburgh, and the shows which are brought to Indiana of painting, prints, photography, textiles, and crafts.

Psycho-Educational Bureau A teachers ' college, in addition to teaching the content of subjects, also teaches the students how to present this subject matter to others in a teaching situation. The Educa- tion Department through the so-called education courses furnishes the ground work for the professionalization of the content of other courses. Thus, the Education Department serves every other department except English, which also serves every student in the college. To put it in another way, the Education Department is expected to furnish the leaven for the professionalizing of the work of the college. It is the feature which distinguishes the teachers ' college from some other college. It touches every student in every depart- ment and thereby makes the college a professional school.
