There are classes meeting in all of the permanent buildings except the three new dormitories-and in addition the services of ten temporary classroom and laboratory buildings are required. However, since only two of the University's eight schools and colleges have buildings bearing their names, it should perhaps be recorded that the purpose of these pages is merely to picture the permanent buildings presently included in the T. C. U. campus- not to evidence the scope of the educational program at T. C. U. Add-Ran College of Art: and Sciencer, the largest school or college, is active throughout the campus. Its departments hold forth in the Administration Building, in Brite College of the Bible, in the barracks and Sterling House on the East campus, and even in the Gym and three dormitories-physics on the ground floor of the Gym, journalism on the ground floor of Goode, Twelve biology and geology on the ground floor of Clark, and foreign languages on the first floor of Jarvis. The School of Burinerr, second largest, is housed in East campus barracks.- The School of Education, third largest, has headquarters on the ground floor of Brite College of the Bible and holds classes in almost as many locations as does Add-Ran. Harm College of Nzzrring has its offices and advanced class- rooms and laboratories ar Harris Hospital. And the Graduate School and the Evening College locate their classes as nearly as possible in parallel to undergraduate day classes in the same subjects.
