Lena P. Buclcingimam, BS., 51.5.5 Liora B. iWaGee, Ph.B., NIA., PHD. The Division of Home Economics The Division of Home Economics, Liora B. MaGee, Head, offers courses of a general nature dealing with problems of everyday living. The clivision,s courses are of such a practical nature that many women students take minors or elective subjects in time field in order to better prepare themselves for after college life. The division has so arranged its courses that it prepares future teachers for both vocational and nonvocational Home economics. Housed for many years in Science Hall, tire Division was in the process of moving from its former quarters to tile new home economics rooms during the year. Many advantages, sucii as ceiling and windows of the height and size of homes, new kitchen equipment and a new place to make sparkling and homelike, were found in the new division home. 44282
