DOROTHY M. WASLEY De an of Women Look to This Day — For yesterday is already a dream, And tomorrow is only a vision: But today, well lived, makes every yesterday a dream of happiness — And every tomorrow a vision of hope — Look well, then, to this day. Anonymous. MISS WASLEY, Dean of Women THE DEANS SAMUEL M. LONG Dean of Men Whom, then, do I call educated? First, those who control circum- stances instead of being mastered by them, those who meet all occasions manfully and act with intelligent thinking, those who are honorable in all their dealings, who treat good naturedly persons and things that are disagreeable, and furthermore, those who hold their pleasures un- der control and are not overcome by misfortune, finally those who are not spoiled by success. — hocrates.

The Home Economics Department of the Mansfield State Teachers College has earned the rep- utation of having one of the finest Home Economics courses in the State. This course especially pre- pares young women for the teaching profession, although it is so comprehensive that other types of positions related to this field are open to its graduates. The young women are given every possible opportunity to practice Home Economics in all of its phases. In our very attractive apartment on campus, small groups of students live for a period of six weeks during their Junior year with a resident director. The principles they have been taught in oth- er home economics classes are put into practice. Also they spend nine weeks managing the school lunch at the Junior High School. The lunches are planned with consideration of nutritional value, attractiveness of food and economy of cost. The nursery school is an important part of the Senior girls ' curriculum. For one semester they are associated with the children, learning about their habits and personalities. Each student teaches a semester on campus under careful guidance and has the additional privilege of teaching under su- pervision of a vocational homemaking department in an approved high school in Pennsylvania. Fashion shows, food demonstrations, dinners, teas, and exhibits are interesting, worthwhile proj- ects and activities of the department. The course at Mansfield meets the requirements for certifica- tion in Home Economics Education and in addition each student gains inspiration and knowledge with which to encourage others in the community to create better living and as an ultimate goal, to live graciously in her own home or within her profession. 15
