umanified ' anguagefi The Humanities Division, headed by Dr. E. B. Vest, includes rhetoric, English literature, speech, French, German, and Spanish. The divi- sion makes the acquaintance of every student at UlC while the student attempts to fulfill the gen- eral rhetoric requirement, which must be met by all students. The department strives to make the use of good English, the ability to speak in public, and the ability to understand and speak a foreign language an effective part of the education of all who attend its classes. Because of the great interest of the student body in studying foreign languages, the Language Department has greatly increased its faculty and curriculum. Being able to read entrees on a French menu is only one of the benefits de- rived from studying French. All the Language De- partments, including the French Department, head- ed by Dr. W. M. Schuyler, the Spanish Depart- ment, headed by Dr. I. Sanchez, and the German Department, headed by Dr. l-l. C. Vardaman offer a two-year basic course. They also offer a third year course in conversation and literature for students who wish to pursue their chosen language further, Row 1: I. Richey, W. Love, M. Oleksy Row 2: K. Quinlcm, I. Miller, G.

Shapiro enera! gngineering rawing Basic courses in Aeronautical, Archi- tectural, Chemical, Civil, Electrical and Mechani- cal Engineering are all offered by the Chicago Undergraduate Division. Each individual engineer- ing group can be thought oi as a department in its own. One such typical group in engineering train- ing can be exemplified by the Civil Engineers, who, along with those trom downstate, attend the University of Illinois surveying camp each year in Blackduck, Minnesota, in order to better under- :gtand the needs ot an engineer in action, and to gain the fundamental practical experience. The basic objectives oi the General Engineering Department are iirst, to give the student a thorough knowledge of the fundamentals in en- gineering drawing, and second, to give them an opportunity to apply these principles. It also hopes to develop in the student the ability to think and analyze in a logical manner, and if possible, to instill in the young prospective engineer a protes- sional attitude towards his work. Headed by C. I. Carlson, the department consists of thirteen in- structors, all ot whom have had a great deal of practical engineering experience.

The Mathematics Department, headed by Dr. I. I. Corliss, is a very progressive one. The instructors are busily en- gaged in graduate Work outside of the regular teaching duties. They have considerably added, through their studies, to the text material offered in the various mathematics courses such as analyt- ical geometry, calculus, and differential equations. ' 194,566 One of the most interesting features of the Physics Department is the demonstration radar unit now being assembled by a group of students in co-operation with A. I. Klapperich. The aim of this project is not only to give first-hand in- formation on radar operation, but to further the possibility of carrying on meteorological Work. Headed by Dr, O. L. Railsback, the department maintains a standards and measurements labora- tory for the staff. This laboratory will contribute materially to the quality of instruction through the improvement in available equipment.
