.QI f Tl Wil. i E 5 5 .E Art Building . . . where the works of the masters mold the art of our age In 1956 because of the increase in enrollment, teaching' staff and - - courses, the Art Department left the crowded east end of the Adminis- 1 tration Building to take up residence in a new and modern three- story structure which offers up-to-date equipment and more exhibition space. Art was one of the original courses of study at TSCW. Like the college itself, the Art Department has not only kept abreast of the .' 1 .v- - times, but has pioneered in its field. As the years passed, several degree groups were developed in the various branches of art to supply the needs and wants of the students. TSCW was the first college to offer graduate work in art. :main , .r:., 1 .. .1-:N .fm-.aut-utr. .

The Department of Biology was one of the original areas of instruction, then called Department of Biological Science and Geology. It has grown through the years until today degrees are offered in bactetiology, botany, pre-medical, zoology and introduction to medical technology. n Courses i'n chemistry and physics originally were offered as a service parallel to home economics, but today that department trains students for vital jobs in the vast field of professional chemistry. The Science Building, home of test tubes, microscopes and laboratories so important to these subjects, was built in 1955. 1 Hygiea , . . Located at the crest of Lowry Woods, the modern, 25-bed College Hospital, dubbed Hygeia by students, was 1 opened in the fall of 1935. Before that time, a smaller infirmary had been placed in old Burnett Hall, Students suffering with anything from a bruised thumb to a sore throat, and all points between, may re- ceive professional service from Hygeia's resident physician and five registered nurses. The hospital is equipped with two heat lamps, two ultraviolet lights and a laboratory and lab technician for necessary tests. Free health examina- tions also are given students as part of the college's modern health service. home of inhalers, heat lamps and little white pills
