In a world full of confusion, mathematics presents a field of study in which results arc definite and basic theories stable. Partly for this reason many students take a definite liking to mathematics, even though they may not he highly talented in the subject. That more students of last ear ' s gradu- ating class chose mathematics as an elective major than any other subject is significant of the fad that students have begun to realize the value and need for it. The complexity of modern living requires more engineers, more scientists and more technicians than ever before. Persons planning on entering these lines of work must have a thorough training in mathematics. Courses offered by the mathematics department range from elementary freshman mathematics to algebra 4 and trigonometry on the college level. twenty-four
