The English Department is distinctly unique in being able to serve the “whole man of the liberal college ideal. It is equipped to help the student both learn to earn a living and learn to live. On the practical side it provides profession¬ al training for teaching, radio, and journalism. More important, through its composition and speech courses it leads every student to an acceptable use of his own language--the very foundation of vocational success in any field. Literature, by opening the exciting world of imaginative life to the student, helps him develop the spiritual and aesthetic potentialities of his character; and it stimulates him to enjoy and profit from the pleasures and the visions of his fellow men. Journalism emphasizes his right and ability to obtain different points of view on current problems and full in¬ formation about happenings at home and abroad. And drama, radio production, and creative writing make him sensitive to the best in himself and in the world about him. ENGLISH DEPARTMENT members are: (seated, left to right) Miss Wahnita DeLong, head of the department.

The first two are directly supervised by the Engineering Department, while the last two are under the joint supervision of the Engineering and Physics, and Chemistry Department, respectively. Many courses are common to all engineering students, but the more specialized electronic courses are given under the Physics De¬ partment, specialized plastics courses under the Chemistry Department. Facilities available in the department are; two drafting rooms, a large engi¬ neering shop, and a metallurgical lab¬ oratory. The engineering shop is divided into bays with machinery and apparatus for conducting experiments and practic¬ ing, machine tool work, materials test¬ ing, welding, heat treatment, refrigera¬ tion and air conditioning, study of fluid mechanics, heat engines, surveying, and precision measurement. The metallurgi¬ cal laboratory is equipped with machin¬ ery for metals testing, metallurgical polishing, etching, and microphotography. Vv 20
