COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES The College of Arts and Sciences is the Uni¬ versity’s largest college and had an enrollment of 2600 during the fall semester. The faculty, used to sharing classrooms, welcomed the completion of the Science and Engineering building, for it gave several of the twenty-four departments new rooms and offices. Under the administration of a new dean, Rob¬ ert F. Kruh, and his assistant, Robert S. Fairchild, the college works toward the goal of giving stu¬ dents the components of a general education. It offers four baccalaureate degrees attained by com¬ pletion of a basic curriculum, including designat¬ ed courses in the fields for which the college is named, and extensive specialization in a major field. An outstanding feature of the College of Arts and Sciences is the Honors Program. This pro¬ gram, co-ordinated by Harold D. Hantz, gives the superior student opportunities for independent study and special library privileges. Small honor sections, in which students go more deeply into the subject matter, are offered as well as special discussion groups during the junior-senior years. I his year the colloquium su bjects were “Freud in the Twentieth Century,” “Science and Religion,” and “Greek Ways of Life.” With this excellent ad¬ dition to its regular program, the College of Arts and Sciences continues to maintain its reputation for high educational standards.
