Professor and Head of Professor of History the Department of History HENRY STEPHEN WILLIAM JACKSON NIOORE HAMILTON A. Zi. A. B., A.11l., Ph. D. Instructor in Social Professor of History Science DEPARTMENT OE HISTORY AND SOCIAL SCIENCES It is the belief of the members of the Department of History and Social Sciences that the main purpose of education is to make the student more fit for public life. The study of the past makes it possible for the student to understand, by the facts, what society isg the study of events and evolutions makes the student familiar with the continual transformation which human affairs under- go: it rectifies his notion of progress. Hence, the study of history and social science is an indispensable part of the curriculum. General courses are planned to give the student a practical knowl- edge of the fundamental growths in history. The special courses are offered to show that the evolution of societies within the last one hundred years has been such that for the understanding of their present forms, the history of these years is more important than the preceding centuries. For those stu- dents intending to teach social sciences, the department endeavors to see that they acquire both general and technical knowledge of the subjects. To be successful the student must further acquire the technique of teaching. -Q.T'T . iT1 -MIT T 'W'1'f TT'Tii '3 '-' 'iIP I S-TWT4-W 'C 44 ?' gif. mfg? lim' -2: . -1LL.-..-Lif.-? '.. ....

The aim of the beginning classes is to give a funda- mental basis of grammatical principles which enables the students to read ex- tensively during the second year of study. Group singing, dramatization, short talks, and general conversation furnish practical experience in oral ex- pression in the language. Correspondence with foreign students also provides an interesting class project. Sufficient courses are offered to allow students to secure a major in French and Spanish if work is begun during the Freshman year. The Department of the Arts includes in its course of study fine and industrial arts, which gives the students training in the principles of the fine arts such as drawing, composition and design, and practical application of these principles in the industrial arts. The courses in fine arts enable the stu- dent to acquire an appreciation of art and to develop his own skill. The courses in industrial arts provide an opportunity for the student to learn to express the fundamentals of artistry in actual practice. -eee -A 2211-Wigs tis-fsiezswf N 'qb.LI'T...uEL, 'S 4:-....5 g'f..a:i1:..
