The three underlying subjects of the School are science, art and sociology. The special applications of each differ for each different group of students. Of the faculty of one hundred and forty instructors and the student body of over fifteen hundred, each one is intent on her special problem, broadening her know!- edge, deepening her interest, looking for the wide: relations and the closer correlations of her subject, preparing to make it effective in the school, the shop. the institution or the home.
