The College of Letters, Arts and Sciences l»F.AN I.OCKWOOI) rHK “DESERT” is a mirror in which each College and each University is truly reflected. The College of Letters, Arts and Sciences thanks the Editor and greets the Campus Public. We should like for you to see us in this magic mirror as we see ourselves: a division of our University that strives to maintain the highest standards of character and scholarship; that contributes helpfully to every student in the institution through the required basic courses; that carries the pre-law, the pre-medical, and the pre-dental student as far as possible on the road toward his professional goal; and that aims to give to its own major students not so much skill to make a living as vision and ability to live richly.

Deans of Men and Women DEHIND the campus physical equip-U ment, which so often stands out preeminently to the public, lies an element, modest in its ostentatious claims, but vital in the life of an educational institution. This essential element is the spirit which motivates each act of the University. Since the founding of the University of Arizona, Faculty and Student bodies co-operatively, have been building up and reiterating what the institution stands for. May we hold constantly before us, that we, individually and collectively, are making the University of Arizona precisely what it is and what it should he, and may we ever stand steadfastly for those things which we know are fundamentally right, so that our contribution to the making of the University be one of which we shall be proud. ie opportunity of adding e achievements, of unfoldi to mg 'V'‘‘ OU were born into an area of marvelous J. development and have seen some of the most wonderful accomplishments of the human race.

o i 1t ‘ r zzd The College of Agriculture y— x AGRICULTURE was originally an art. Today agri-■ 1 culture is not in itself a science, but the application of all sciences to the development of plant and animal life. Each day witnesses new discoveries and new possibilities of application. Those who expect to contribute to the future development of agriculture must have a broad and fundamental training in the sciences and further training in their applications to this field. The new course of study requires this fundamental training and, in the various majors, offers opportunity of preparation for the solution of the complicated problems of an extremely arid and subtropical region.
