as 1- . - - S - ' - 1 S . 1 an 1- unior College Department There can be no bigger or better plea for higher education than the product which such an education turns out. The place of the modern college graduate, in all fields of constructive endeavor, is itself enough argument for an extended education. In political, scientific, religious and educational fields the college man holds the place of leadership. The Billings Polytechnic Institute aims primarily to' give a sound academic training for young people of worth and merit. lnithis training are included both cultural and vocational courses comprising a well-rounded curriculum. In order to further the academy work the school offers courses of Junior College grades, namely the first two years of college or university. Here again, both vocational and liberal arts courses are offered in order to preserve a well-balanced course of study for stu- dents enrolled. This year the Department has materially increased its enrollment and has become very successful. Because of their prestige in scholastic attainments, the college students have been leaders in all campus activities including studies, athletics, glee club, literary, societies, dramatics and other lines. By their fine leadership they have set an example to the Polytechnic community and have proved their social utilitV.l' Realizing the need of a more distinct department for the college as differentiated from the academy, Dean L. R. Foote and Mr. J. H. Gaiser, Dean of the College De- partment, drew up a set of rules and regulations for college students. These rules conform to regular college and university standards. The courses offered in the Liberal Arts include English, History, Sociology, Economics, Psychology, Chemistry and Mathematics, all handled by competent in- structors. Miss Bert Dove has charge of the Freshman English course in Composition and Rhetoric. Miss Grace C. Filkins has second year College English in Composition and Literary Types. Mr. E. B. Crone teaches the College Chemistry while Dean Foote has a cfass in College Mathematics. The History courses for Freshmen include General English, and lVIodern European Political History. The Sociology for Sophomores takes up General Social problems, Social Psychology and Social Control. These courses are taught by Mr. Gaiser. Mr. Lyons has a full year course in College Psychology. Miss Ruth Finnicum gives College Spanish and French. The courses offered in High School Teacher Training by Miss Grace Filkins may also be taken by academy graduates. This comprises the strictly Liberal Arts courses. 20
