Dr. Judd has held membership in many if honorary societies of Education and Psychology. 52.1 The College of Education, like many other in- 1 - 'sl stitutions, has passed through several periods of de- DEAN JUDD ,i velopment. At the time of organization in 19o1, its chief purpose was to train teachers for elementary schools. Colonel Francis W. Parker, its first director, was imbued with the idea that education could be made cl more practical and vital. He accordingly set vigorously about the task of prepar- ing lteachers to carry out hisb ideals. TUnfortunately his career ended before his QI, wor was much more than egun. he Hrst decade following his death was a MQ period of rapid expansion. The number of members of the faculty, the range of llj' courses, and the number of registrations all increased very rapidly. Special effort ii was made to provide both the subject matter and professional courses needed in 1,-1 training general elementary teachers and teachers of special subjects. l-1:1 . - . lf? The period from 1912 to 1922 was a period of readjustments. ln the first place, arrangements were made whereby all prospective teachers in secondary schools should register in the Colleges of Arts, Literature and Science, taking such HQ, . professional courses in the College of Education as they needed. In the second place, the granting of certificates was gradually discontinued. ln the third place, HES' all subject-matter courses, inc uding those in Art and Home Economics were transferred to the Colleges of Arts, Literature and Science. This change made TTU it possible for the College of Education to devote its energy entirely to professional A 1 courses. , At the present time, the College of Education M - Y provides for the professional needs of prospective W kindergarten-primary teachers, prospective supervis- 131 ors, critic teachers, principals and superintendents, and prospective teachers of Education in normal ll, schools, colleges and universities. By far the largest ij, number of students to whom professional courses are ,Il given are prospective teachers in secondary schools and in colleges. Dean William S. Gray, Ph.D., is professor of Ed- Ml ucation and dean of the College of Education. He took ll, his S.B. at the University of Chicago in 1913, his A.M. at Columbia University in 1914, and his Ph.D. at the V1 University of Chicago in 1916. Dean Gray was prin- cipal of the Training School of Illinois State Normal ' ' University before coming to Chicago. He has been DEAN GRAY an acting dean since 1917.

He took his SB. at the University of Chicago in IQOO, his M.D. at Rush Medical College in IQO3, and his Ph.D. at the University of Chicago in 1912. Dean Irons has acted as Assistant in Bacteriology in the University and as Professor of Medicine both here and at Rush Medical College. He has been an acting dean since 1923. ' DEAN IRONS The past few years have been marked by recognition of the service given by the medical sciences in all countries. The great benefits which have accrued from recent medical advances have become apparent. Some diseases like yellow fever have vanished from the earth. Others like typhoid fever, diphtheria, and scarlet fever, greatly dreaded years ago, are so shorn of their strength that like Bunyan's giant, they can but grin malevolently at passers by the way, biting their nails because they cannot come at them . '4Tuberculosis, once captain of the men of death, has now been reduced to the ranksf, There has resulted a keen interest in these beneficient sciences. They are being better organized and better equipped everywhere, but nowhere more than in America. As we contemplate the im- portant contributions to this achievement made by members and graduates of our own University, and as our new medical buildings rise to imposing heights, our hearts are lifted up, and we confidently hope that these new buildings may be consecrated by the vision in them of truths yet unknown, whereby science may be enlarged and human life enriched. Crescat scientia, vita eXcolatur.'7 Dean Basil C. H. Harvey, A.B., M.B., is a Professor of Anatomy and Dean of Med- cal students. He received his A.B. at the Uni- versity of Toronto in 1894 and his NIB. at the same place in 1898. He graduated from the Norman College of Nova Scotia with the Class of 1895, and was a member of the Col- lege of Physicians and Surgeons of Ontario in 1898. Dean Harvey taught in the Univer- sity of Toronto before coming to the Univer- sity of Chicago in IQOI. He has been an act- ing dean since 1921.

E3i.T3f3? A 1 s , THE OGDEN GRADUATE .:,., SCHOOL OF SCIENCE .,.Q 1, The Ogden Graduate School of Science was planned by William Rainey Harper, our first President, in 1891, the year before instruction began at the University. The trustees of the estate of YVilliam B. Ogden advanced about S3oo,ooo in 1893, and by subsequent gifts running over a period of twenty years, in- creased the endowment to about ,Z6oo,ooo. Some of the most distinguished scientific men in America have been members of the Faculty of the Ogden Graduate School of Science, and the various departments today rank high among Science departments in American Universities. A word about plans for the immediate future may be of interest. The Graduate School of Medicine is to be developed as a part of the Ogden Graduate School of Science. As soon as the new Hospital west of Cobb Hall is ready for occupancy, the complete medical course will be given at the University. Dean Henry G. Gale received his A.B. and Ph.B. at the University of Chicago in 1896 and 1899 respectively. He has since taught here and has conducted re- search in the field of Physics at the Carnegie Institution, Mount Wilson, Cali- fornia. He became dean of the Ogden Graduate School of Science in 1922. THE LAW SCHOOL The Law School, now completing its twenty-fourth year, has about the same number of students as for several years past-that is, from three hundred and twenty-five to three hundred fifty enrolled in any one quarter, and from four hundred and fifty different students in residence during the year. Professor George Gleason Bogert, dean of the Cornell University College of Law, joined the Law Faculty in the Autumn Quarter, teaching Sales and part of the Property and Pleading courses. The Illinois Law Review, taken over in IQ24-25 as the joint publication of the three university law schools of the state, Chicago, Illinois, and Northwestern, is nearly through its second year under this combined management. The board of editors, composed of certain members of the Faculty and honor students chosen from each school, has kept it in the front rank of legal periodicals of its class. This joint effort on the part of the three schools has promoted friendly relationships between them, has bettered their cooperation in improving legal educa- tion and the law of the state, and has stimulated critical and productive work on the part of both faculty and students. Dean James P. Hall received his A.B. from Cornell University in 1894 and his L.L.B. from Harvard University in 1897. He practiced law in Buffalo, N. Y., and taught in the Buffalo Law School, and in Leland Stanford Junior University before coming to the University of Chicago in IQO2. He was made dean of the Law School in 1904.
