t Basic Design One of the major highlights of the year for Mr. Madden's basic design students was a field trip to the City Art Museum of St. Louis. Basic design is an elementary art course intended to provide a foundation for those who want to study art simply for enjoyment and for those who intend to continue their study in specialized schools. ( Painting Mr. Rousseff's painting course included experiments in a variety of techniques. Water color, tempera, chalk, pastels, and oils were included. Numerous creative projects were undertaken in easel, mural, and portrait painting. Subject matter was derived both from nature and abstractions with stress on organization and design. Sculpturing and Ceramics Mr. Arnold's ceramics and sculpturing course was popular with would-be professionals and hobbyists alike. Demonstrations, lectures, and slides were provided to guide the students in their work. Enameling in copper was a special project of the class which provided many Christmas gifts for family and friends.

 Monticello is very proud of its carefully chosen faculty, whose primary interest is the student. An advisory program enables each student to receive personal counsel on both her academic and social problems from a mem- ber of the faculty whose time is freely available to her. Through day-by-day contact with the students, an atmosphere of understanding and intimacy is established between the faculty mem? bers and the student body. VLADIMIR ROUSSEFF Chairman.
