WARRIOR v THE 1933 HOW MIDLAND WORKS The term college work” as used in this book includes in its scope all of the activities on the campus— classroom work, athletics, religious groups, social life, musical activities, dramatics, journalism and all organ- izations. These various phases are as truly a part of college life as are classroom activities themselves. As such, they should be considered as a part of the college work. In order to show clearly the pur- pose and value of the different groups and activities on the campus, this sec- tion of the 1933 Warrior has been divided into sub-divisions according to the six groups of courses given at Midland. These six arc: language and literature, religious education, education and psychology, social sci- ences. natural sciences and fine arts. A careful survey of these divisions has shown that each campus organi- zation is related to one of these groups. Therefore, the grouping in this book has been arranged accord- ing to the six groups. There is a great deal of correla- tion between class work and extra- curricular activities at Midland. A number of organizations, such as the Science club. English club. Midland staff and the musical groups, have grown directly from class room work. Honorary societies are com- posed of those students who do out- standing work in the various depart- ments. Midland’s day begins at 8 o’clock, when the first class period com- mences. Four classes are run through the morning, with a chapel period between the second and third. The chapel hour is a time when students come together to worship and to en- joy good music, addresses, debates or other forms of chapel programs. The fifth regular class period comes directly after the noon hour. Fol- lowing this, the afternoon is devoted to laboratory work, athletics, music, play practices and meetings and work of other organizations. Fac- ulty members are in the classrooms or offices and may be consulted dur- ing the afternoon. At the beginning of each semester a calendar is made out by a commit- tee appointed by the Student Council. This calendar is a schedule of regular meetings of all organizations for the semester and of all special all-college and society events such as plays, rush parties and banquets. In this way it is possible for Midland organizations to carry on their activities without conflicts. Through all-college parties sponsored by the Student Council, students are brought together to be- come better acquainted with each other and with their instructors. Midland organizations are brought before the attention of the students through chapel services and through the weekly paper. The Midland. So- cieties take charge of chapel services at various times throughout the year and thus the students learn some- thing of the different groups. Pep rallies, under the direction of the pep societies, are held preceding athletic contests, and mention is always made in chapel of victories won on the football field, basketball court, in debates, in oratory or in journalism. T hus it is that college work is one compact whole. TwfBiy.(hi«
