Our Music Department plays on important role in al- most every campus activity, whether it is a football game or a Commencement exercise. Convocations, dances, and holiday programs also need the backing of a competent music department. There are eight main music organizations which ore open to college students who can meet the requirements. The Music Council is on organization which promotes the interests of the music student. This council works in cooperation with the college administration and music faculty. It is made up of eight representatives, two from each class, and four oflFicers elected by the Music Depart- ment. The council plans the department ' s functions for the school year. These include an outing, a formal ban- quet, and trips to Pittsburgh to hear the Pittsburgh Symphony and well-known music artists. The depart- ment is very conscientious in making sure that its stu- dents meet the requirements for teaching and super- vising public school music.

Three contributions of a Home Economics Department are to prepare women for their life work as home- makers and to prepare men for their responsibilities as future heads of families and fatherhood, to pre- pare teachers to educate their pupils for homeliving, and to prepare home economists for their professional careers. Indiana ' s Home Economics Department fulfills all three obligations. Home Ec. is the only course which is centered on the home activities and relationships which enable the student to assume the responsibilities of homemaking. The homemaking classrooms provide a lifelike environment in which the students can have experiences that will help them to solve their present and future home problems.
