Whether one speaks, writes or reads, his ac- tivity falls within the scope of the English Depart- ment. For this whole field is a great undergirding discipline, a training ground in speaking, writing, thinking. Here one can sharpen his knowledge of the language and his skills in using it. He can know the sense of achievement and growth in isolating ideas and clothing them in increasingly expres- sive words. Before the student stretches the vast field of literature from which he can draw inspirations, understanding and entertainment. As his ac- quaintance with these works increases, so his sen- sitivity to himself and his fellows will increase. He can laugh or cry, be drawn or repulsed, worship or condemn. But never can he be a smaller per- son for having opened his heart and his mind to the great ideas and creations of the ages. 4. , 'r X .Tfxfud ' 'S ' ,.is.' 2-3. , 'ig 'fl xv .73 nn QI 'M' . -f-4 . nf 4, s g X f Sis i?'-155' , 1,1 f f A 15 LELA SUSAN WRIGHT, Associate Professor of English, B.A., West Virginia University, M.R.E., Eastern Baptist Seminary, M.A., University of Tulsa.

RICHARD BESANCON, Associate Professor of Philosophy, B.A., Wheaton College, M.A. Baylor University, B.D., Th.D., Northern Baptist Seminary, Grad- uate Studies, Northwestern University and Roosevelt University. - It is the aim of the philosophical disciplines to make the student aware of the need for critical and reflective thinking about the great issues of life. Effort is made to acquaint the student with the basic philosophical problems to the role they play in the vicissitudes of the contemporary world. The student is introduced to the major types of philosophical schools which seek to offer answers to these problems. It is emphasized that Christian thinkers should develop a Christian world-and- life view which encompasses life as a whole and is built upon the perspective that God has revealed Himself in Christ and the Biblical revelation.
