Strub, performs an important function: to instruct students in the com- ponents of the language as a medium of oral and written ex- pression; equally important, the appreciation of literature, both American and foreign, is also a teaching aim of this department. This year the English depart- ment has extended the ‘special classes'' to include sophomore and junior years. Next year this pro- gram will cover all three grades. This accelerated plan permits top students to cover more material and to have the opportunity to display their talents more fully. The demands of today's society are stressing the means and art of communication. The English department had this objective in view when the yearly program was planned. Elizabeth R.
