DEAN JOSEPH WEI L L it 're ,r-v . if hid CNEEENE NE ENNINEENINN You can always tell an engineering student by the slide rule he carries The slide rulers are taking tar more ot the spotlight now than ever before! since the national defense program began, Every department ot the College ot Engineering is working closely with government agencies to train men and develop eguipment that will aid the United States to reach its desired goal ot pre- paredness Such unconnected parts ot the University as the heating system and the CAA tlying course are under the supervision ot the engi- neering taculty, most ot whom are consultants to industries throughout the state, Few industrial plants in Elorida do not employ at least one graduate ot the College ot Engineering, and still more graduates of the College are employed in responsible posrtions where thinking is more important than wielding a slide rule Dean Joseph We:l's greatest dream is the tuture Engineering Experiment station which he hopes to see on the campus soon Dean Weil spends almost halt ot his time ott the campus as he travels to other cities trying to get new buildings and new proi- ects started here. 2 fa WS' it if E Ks A A gh Vt' ll lit-'inl r ll C El Jugilt E qlt'l,L1EEO W W, Eineren li S Erauli C l'l lanes ll .l Milt . li A Morgen P L lfeetl S P Sal-.lintl W l, Sawyer P O Yeaton

Most University students don't pay much attention to Educa- tion until the summer session, when thousands ot women teachers come here tor graduate study and tor maintaining teaching certi- ficates, A large percentage ot summer session enrollees are in the College ot Education, and the normal ratio ot men to women is reversed During regular session a large proportion ot the colleges enrollment consists ot tlorida gridiron warriors, the state's tuture schoolmasters, J BOHANNON A, CRAOO J D HAYGOOD W A LITTLE W T LOETEN A R MEAD E B SALT G B SIMMONS A W TENNEY J, l-l.

llllltlllll lllllllllf The General College tries to teach freshmen and sophomores o lol of lxnowledge about everything although many get their Associate of Arts degrees having learned a lot of knowledge about nothing Qrganized in six brood! comprehensive courses, the Ceneral College dominates the first year student completely as the un- Lnowing freshman is crammed with Cs from l to le ranging from o study of man's relationships with other men to o two year study of mathematics crowded into one semester, In the second year, the GC student is the target for the humanities and bio- logical studies, but has time to take courses in other departments Students are graded only according to their final examination which is graded by a machine, affectionately called Elunl4en- stein Sold machine is impervious to all attempts at browning and has never been known to trade an A for o guart of oil In- stead of striving for perfection! GC students try only to score more than their fellows since grades are given on a competitive CLIVVG Dean Winston W, Little is the stern guardian of the young minds still in the formative stage, and many o senior relates sorrow- fully his experience in trying to put something over on him DEAN WllNlSTGlXl VV LlTTLE A S, ,ff ,N 'Q 1 f 0 M .L pgs . , VW , M ki ,f I ,, X45 WS? w L1 girl F - 4' gy.. .,. ,,,5gr,A, ,g ,Wy , ,.
