DIVISION OF FINE ARTS The objectives of the Division of Fine Arts are: to stimu- late a greater interest in and understanding of the arts as a part of a liberal education; to offer to those who wish to specialize in either the field of art or music an opportunity to do so; and to offer to the general student opportunities to gain experiences in art and music both as a participator and a spectator. While other areas of learning may stress factual knowledges and scientific disciplines, the work of this division is primarily concerned with human significance of the facts and processes commonly known as the realm of aesthetics. In stressing the recognition and development of these values the division makes a significant contribution to the general purposes and philos- ophy of the college. Mr. Ralph L.

DIVISION OF EDUCATION AND PSYCHOLOGY The primary concern of the Division of Education and Psy- chology is the student. The various programs within the Divi- sion aim to stimulate intellectual curiosity, increase the stu- dent’s area of knowledge, and to establish ethical habits in human relationships. The programs also strive to provide an atmosphere for learning that is conducive to helping each stu- dent fulfill his own potential, and at the same time recognize and assume his responsibility for making a contribution to society. The Division strives to help students acquire the skills and the knowledge necessary in their careers. The faculty seeks to provide instruction that is enriched by the best traditions of scholarship; and through personal ex- ample, promote new ideas which will assist its graduates in achieving a high degree of effectiveness in their chosen careers.
