A I ES SCHOOL r i School of mmmm Radically revising the organization o£ the School of Journalism, Dean M. Lyle Spencer eai ' ly this spring instituted four new departments, graphic arts, business management, advertising, and radio — in addition to the present course in editorial practice. The new plan is far in advance of curricula offered by the country ' s schools of journalism, which retain the customary emphasis on report- ing work. To complete the details for this program, students in the School of Journal- ism met for breakfast on two Sunday mornings to suggest revisions in the present set-up and to offer new ideas to use in formulating the new plan. The school will continue to require another major in the College of Liberal Arts or in the College of Jkisiness Administiaiion. Recjuirement of a B a ciage in eight hours of journalism is also maintained for admission to the school. The journalists scored a scoop this spring when they booked T. A. Raman, Indian journalist, to talk at the Publications banquet at the time of the Cripp ' s proposal. Through the courtesy of The Syracuse Post-Standard, the joiunalists became professional for one day and edited the Monda) morning edition on April 27. Top to bottom: Prof. M.
