INDUSTRIAL ARTS STUDENTS spend a great deal of their class time learning to op- erate the power tools nec- essary to produce workshop projects that are well made. THE SCHOOL OF Journalism ' s new typography course room is located in the University Training School. TELEVISION PROGRAMS are tape-recorded by library science students for future use by other classes. 24 NOT AS INTERESTING pic- torially, perhaps, as the laboratory class, but just as important in a well-bal- anced college education are the mainly-lecture courses.

At Kent State University Students Learn to Live and to Make a Living From his first experiences in the classroom as a Freshman to the day, four years later, when he is awarded the long-sought sheepskin, a Kent State University student is learning to live and to make a living. By taking various courses offered by the University ' s 31 departments of study, the student becomes a college graduate well-trained to make his own way in the business world. Ranging from accounting to speech, library science to special education, the de- partments are staffed by men and women who have the latest facts and equipment at their disposal to give the student a thorough education in his chosen field. Both laboratory and lecture courses play important roles in the University ' s program to graduate alert and int3lligent citizens. Perhaps the most difficult and yet most important of all college courses is the unas- signed and ungraded one which is a requirement for success. It is learning to get along with people. Constant association with those from varying backgrounds in the classroom, dormitory and general campus life disciplines the student for post-school living. Differ- ing from most other University courses, this one is not taken for only one or two quarters. It is a four-year long program of maturing. 23
