College of Law The College of Law was the first purely professional college to be instituted by the University, and is perhaps the most individual at present. It offers a full course to prepare its students for the practice of law. and has been accorded recognition by the American liar Association as an accredited college of law. The College of l aw now has the added distinction of membership in the Association of American Law Schools. Professor Kegtly. Dean of the College, has progressively directed the work in legal education at Arizona from its early initiation throughout its rapid development. The success of the college he attributes to the acknowledged ability and enthusiasm of the members of the law faculty, as they cooj erate, under his supervision, in instruction. Activities of two chapters of national legal fraternities supplement the technical educational work of the classroom, by affording the members of the law student body a social relaxation deemed by the faculty to l c both necessary and desirable. The spirit of friendliness which permeates the entire law group is a striking and distinctive-characteristic of the College of l aw, and produces that harmony between students and faculty which alone can lead to the very finest success.

Mimic faculty College of Music Among the Colleges in Arizona which may be listed under the name of pure art. perhaps the outstanding is the College of Music which, though comparatively new, having heen organized during the Fall term of 1924-25, lias proved one of the. most successful. It has grown with the proverbial leaps and bounds from a tiny department, managed by only two instructors, to a large college under the management of nine instructors and a capable Dean, and student enrollment lias increased steadily, year by year. The college now includes instruction in voice, piano, violin, all string instruments, and a good course in the teaching of music in the public schools. Students may enroll merely for their own enjoyment, for the sake of obtaining a pleasant cultural accomplishment, or for training in music later to be utilized as a profession. In some instances students have enrolled in order to learn singing later to be utilized as a vocation. It is small wonder that today many students register as Music majors and spend most of their time in the. I fall of Music. At the head of the College, enthusiastic and capable, stands the Dean, Charles F. Rogers, who lias directed the work since the department was organized. Dean Royers Twenty-five
