FACULTY In the Atomic Age Professor Paul Harmon Kirkpatrick of the Physics Department finds a new emphasis and interest in his courses. With his curriculum greatly ex- panded, Civil Engineering ' s act- ing head Leon Benedict Reynolds found new interest from those de- siring a practical education. Professor Charles Fairman re- turned from the war to the head of an expanded and rejuvenated Po- litical Science Department which now contains an international re- lations department. Head of the History Department, Professor Edgar Eugene Robinson has long been a Stanford favorite for his comprehensive courses in American history and ideals. Professor Lydik S. Jacobsen doubles as the head of the Me- chanical Engineering Department and teacher in these days of great need for technical training. Bernard F. Haley of the Econom- ics Department found his courses mainly filled by veterans who will apply his economic theories to practical life.
