hum School of Education news.. fwEs M-fb E GEORGE A. DEGLMAN, S. J. Dean T. LOUIS University opened the School of Education in September, 1925. Within the two years that have passed since itsinception, much has already been done to carry out the ideas of those who conceived the project. The School is organized on a fourfyear basis leading to the Bache1or's degree. Fully conscious however of the possibilities of more extensive influence, the School has achieved considerable results in solving the problems of the teaching Sisterhoods, in organizing the work of various schools, in establishing extension centres to provide for the needs of teachers, and in strengthening standards of professional work. E The year 19264927 opened with an enrollment of regular students which was 200 per cent more than that of the previous year, while the attendance in the late afternoon and Saturday courses is most gratifying. The number of students who are working towards a' degree has increased beyond all expectation. The School of Education is still young, but it is manifesting a strong vitality which augurs well for its future growth. GEORGE A. DEGLMAN, S. J. Page Nineteen

KNAPP, S. J. Dean of College 'il T is often difficult to speak of the thing in which we are most interested. I find it so when asked to say a few words about the College. As .1 man and boy I have known the College for the. past twentyffive years, A1 1 so a good deal is demanded when asked to write of it in a few words. TO say that the College has progressed during those years would he to speak jig a truism. It has become an active and forward looking school of a great and growing university. But amid all this progress , it has not changed in the friendliness and democratic spirit of its students,-in the intimate and unassuming relations 111 II of trust and encouragement and cooperation which exist between students and faculty,-fin the .wonderful spirit of selffsacrifice and complete devotion I 1 S1 to a nohle calling which animates its faculty. It has not changed its aims, its ideals, its high purposes,fthose things which are the true and only reasons for its existence,-it is still a Jesuit College, a Catholic College,+the College QI of Arts and Sciences of St. Louis University. if 5 THOMAS M.

A Z WWo --fwx f rw E GEORGE W. WILSON Dean HE School of C Starting with a few dozen students in 1910 it has rown to b th , g e I e second largest school of the University. Both Day and Evening D . . epartments are progressing strongly and expanding solidly. The introduction, this year, of placement training for the Seni f th ors o e Day School, is an innovation which has worked out with success. The addition of cultural subjects to the regular Commerce and Finance studies, which has beengradually enlarged within the last few years, is adding variety and tone to the course without interfering with solid training in the more practical matters. It has been found that better results are obtained by extending these cultural subjects over the entire course, rather than by conf centrating them in the Freshman and Sophomore years. The need for the type of education offered in the School of Commerce and Finance isbecoming daily more apparent. Modern business is keen for capable men specially trained and willing to work. Moreover it is becoming quite apparent that Schools of this character can help the business man solve some of his most annoying problems and he is coming to realize what this means towards his success Unl l n 1 . ess u a l signs fail, the future should offer opportunities worthy of a very ambitious course of studies. ommerce and Finance is now in its seventeenth year.
