The purpose of the School is to train young men and women for both professional and cultural activities in the fields of Music, Architecture, and Art, and to this end the curricula include not only systematic instruction in the theory, history, and practice of the arts, but also the study of branches of philosophy, language, science, and history which have a direct bearing on those arts. The various courses offered by the college are also available, and are much utilized, as elective subjects by students in other colleges of the University, showing an increased feeling for the value of the fine arts in a liberal education. The School has sponsored a number of recitals and exhibitions, both stu- dent and professional, besides trips to Cincinnati for concerts and exhibits. 22
