MATHEMATICS Matlieiiiatics has bt-en apprupruitely called the Queen of the Sciences. Its applications are so interwoven with all forms of human tliDughl anil action that they cannot he separated from tlie develop nient of the human race. Every student ' s curriculum should reipiire a course in .Mathematics — not only for its aesthetic and cultural value, hut hecause no other subject so thoroughly develops the mind and the imagination. The habit of accurate thinking and the forming of quick and correct de- cisions, acquired by its study, cannot be overestimated. The Department of Mathematics at State College hohls a unii| ie place. Being a technical school, every engineering student is requireil not only to master the general theory of mathematics, but to nlitaiu a thorough working knowledge of those principles he needs in his engineering course. MODERN LANGUAGES pkoi-. r, 1-:. 1,. -. Ti-:s Miillu-iiititiis . s a world power the I ' nited States occupies a position where it is necessary that her repre- sentatives in the business, diplomatic and social world should have a working knowledge of the countries to which they go. With this end in view, it is the aim of the Department of Modern L;mguages to instruct in French, German anil Spanish with an eye not only to business but also to culture for we believe that it is then, and then nnly, that the student will get the kind of knowledge that will round out his education with pleasure and profit alike resulting. Students have displayed excep- tional interest in our work in the past and for the future we anticipate a continuous growth of the department.

Even the chemist, who pairs off the atoms according to their affinities, has to gromul himself here in the action of these forces as they produce attractions. The student of . griculture seems a bit further removed until he begins to add to his great industry of liroduction, machines to multiply force and control jiower ; or again tt ' ben he goes deeper into Nature ' s forces in soil and plant. Hence from every corner of the campus come the students to the Physics Dejiartment and find tliere a fuller understanding and ability gained in their resjiective fields. Page Twenty-six
