ournalism journalism majors at Texas Woman's University are always on hand to cover all-campus activities for the Daedalian Annual and the Daily Lass-O. The journalism major's program of study is divided into two phases. First, a broad general education is emphasized. Second, professional training is offered to prepare students for careers in newspaper writing, magazine work, public relations, advertising, photography, or radio-te1e- vision work. The journalism department is accredited by the American Council on Education for journalism. Journalism majors are offered actual working conditions through their production of the Daily Lass-O. Most of the journalism major's undergraduate hours are spent in the print shop, in class, at her typewriter, or on the run for stories. She can look forward to an exciting and interesting time in school as well as in her career. Deciding which pix to use for the Daily Lass-O is sometimes a problem to the editors, but journalism students learn the workings of a city newspaper through working experience on the Daily Lass-O.

Histor and Government Today a knowledge of history and government is needed so that we may, through a study of past and pres- ent events, gain a better understanding of the world today. The department of history and government provides this vital knowledge. To fulfill degree requirements, all students are required to take certain courses in history and government. 'These courses, plus reading and class discussions, are better preparing graduates for their position as citizens and voters. Majors in this department develop their interests through such courses as Amer- ican Political Thought and Foreign Relations. The Citizenship League is an organization open to all students, which defines and outlines the woman's privilege of voting and her world citizenship. Bachelor of Arts and Master of Arts degrees are offered by the department. Class lectures are an important part of learning history, and these history students are rushing to note as much as they can about an early American colony. DR. WALTER DR MAX L.
