DRAWING The aim of all drawing courses is to prepare the student to do creditable professional work in engineering planning or in a drafting office. This subject presents the underlying prin- ciples of drafting and at the same time gives enough practical work to fix the principles in the students mind. Mann, C. V.. Professor of Engineering Drawing and Descrip- tive Geometry B.S. in C.E., 191.4; C.E., 1921, Colorado; Ph.I)., 1929, Iowa Schooler, 1). R., Assistant Professor of Engineering Draicing and Descriptive Geometry B.S., 1926, E.M., 1944, Missouri School of Mines ECONOMICS AND HISTORY Some of the courses taught in this department arc primarih professional in purpose— such courses, that is, as Accounting. Engineering Economics, Industrial Organization and Man- agement, and Personnel Management. Other courses are designed to provide an understanding of man’s past, of how mankind has reached its present stage of cultural develop- ment; of the mechanisms of contemporary political, social, and economic institutions; and of the principles of human behavior, a knowledge of which makes possible the prediction of individual and group reactions to the physical and social environments.

S., 1935, M.S.. 1936, Missouri ENGLISH The English Department aims (1) to train students in the mechanics and style of communication; (2) to enlarge the intellectual range of the student so that he may more full and effectively live with his fellow men. The first is achieved by instructing the student in the most effective methods of oral and written communication; the second through a study of the world’s greatest literature; and the two aims are inseparable.

DR. E. E. FEIN I) Dr. Feind has been Student Health Director for many years ant! has capably carried out his work in caring for the health of students attending school. He received his B.S. in 1931 at South Dakota and his M.IX in 1933 at Nebraska. Among the services which Dr. Feintl contributes are free hospital consultation during office hours, minor surgical operations at the request of stu- dents, X-ray examinations, and vaccinations. HOSPITAL 1 lie School of Mines and Metallurgy adminis- ters its student health service through the School Dispensary and Infirmary which are under the direct supervision of the Student Health Di- rector, Medical care and hospital attention are offered free to students during terms for which they are registered and in attendance. The hos- pital is small but well equipped to handle any ordinary cases of sickness or injury. LIBRARY The Library, which occupies the second floor and part of the basement of Parker Hall, consists ot a large, well-lighted reading room, a suite of offices and work rooms, and a double-deck Snead stack. A large collection of about 70,000 care- fully selected volumes supplemented by a large number of pamphlets and bulletins are made available to the students. Both recreational and cultural reading may be obtained from the vari- ous general magazines, and books of fictional, biographical, and scientific nature. The re- sources of the library are made more available to the students through the excellent cataloging system employed. G. L. CAMPBELL Mr. Campbell has served the Missouri School of Mines and Metallurgy as Librarian and Cam- loger since 1939, and has proved himself to be very capable and efficient. He is well qualified for litis position, having earned a B.S, in Science at Purdue in 1937, and a B.S. in Library Science at Illinois in 1938.

GEOLOGY AND MINERALOGY This department has as ns objective the training of students in Lite fundamental principles of geological science, and the application of that training to various engineering problems in the fields covered by the 1 ‘mineral industries curricula. Emphasis in this course is placed on practical applications that will train the student thoroughly for a career in the geology held. Muilenberg, G.

The Department of Mathematics has as its object the training of students in the fundamental operations of the various branches of the subject along with a certain amount of application to elementary engineering problems. For the more advanced work in mathematics applications rather than pure theory are stressed. Rankin, R. M., I ss Of id te Professor a Math e nut t i rs A, Ik, 191(1. Maryville (Term.) College; A.
