Education program produces teachers The Division of Education and Psychology is re- sponsible for educating more students than any other division on campus. The education program is approved by the North Central Association and is in process ot applying for membership in the National Council for Accreditation of Teacher Edu- cation. The Education Department places practice teachers in the Oklahoma City school system each semester, allowing students to do their practice teaching and carry on other studies on campus. Since almost all careers in the psychology field require graduate work as a part of the preparation, students wishing to specialize in this area may take an undergraduate major in social science or biological sciences with a minor in psychology. Harold Fletcher, chairman of the Speech and Fine Arts Division, has been with OCC i7 years and is song leader at the Mayfair congregation. Mary Fletcher teaches private piano and voice lessons.

The division, comprised of the Departments of English and Modern Languages, offers the student a BA in English, a BSE in Lan- guage Arts, and pre-degree work in foreign lan- guages. The English Department equips the student to express his views in writing and enables him to evaluate the views and ideas of others, while the Foreign Language Department impresses students with the cultural and linguistical aspects of the modern languages. Both departments play an es- sential part in shaping the student for his life as a citizen, an evangelist, and a creative individual. Overseas study takes students to Europe each semester to learn languages, customs, and countries. These travelers are at Paris' Louvre.
