SA 0,0 OgCl60l CLf0I lQ1f Shop Laboratory courses are designed to provide the student with certain fundamental concepts which can be used or enlarged upon in other more advanced engineering subjects. The objective of basic engineering subjects, as stated by I. S. Kozacka, department head, is to give students sound tools or principles to be used in planning for the manufacture of goods and serv- ices in the mechanical engineering field. ln the courses students attend lectures, perform work and experiments in the laboratories, and take part in many organized trips to manufacturing and power plants under the guidance of well trained and ex- perienced staff members. Although the R.O.T.C. was only or- ganized last semester, it has already taken great strides to make itself known and appreciated among the student body. The R.O.T.C. program includes two classes and one drill per week. The classes deal with care of equipment, tactics, and elementary maneuvers. The aim of the Corps is to provide a group of well-trained men to serve as officers in regular reserve units. Four of its cadets were presented with Chicago Tribune Honor Medals recently. The medals, presented by Phillip Maxwell, are award- ed by the Tribune each year to outstanding cadets in both high school and college units. xx R. Perkins, R. Schroeder, R. Kennedy. I.

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.

Little IQAWMCCL .giienced Mo ogicaf .gzience Dr. D. L. Hopkins, chairman of the Biological Sciences Division, is happy to announce that the reorganization of the biology curriculum for the freshman and sophomore years is now complete. Because this reorganization has meant an increase in courses offered, most of the mem- bers of the department are busy writing text books to fill the new requirements. An increase in en- rollment in the Division has necessitated the build- ing of a new embryology-zoology laboratory, with an added demonstration case facing on the corri- dor. Exhibits in these cases are designed to be both educational and entertaining. The department hopes that through these new courses and facilities they will be better able to help the student appre- ciate and understand the scientific method. Chemistry, Geology, and Mineralogy are the mediums through which the Physical Sciences Department acquaints students at UIC with the physical world that surrounds them, and with the chemical processes of indus- try and of life itself. In the Physical Sciences curricula students attend lectures, perform various laboratory experiments, view novel exhibits, and participate in many interesting field trips. lt is through the department head, Dr. C. R. Meloy, and his twenty-six associate professors that UIC students are given this well-rounded and informative education in the field of Physical Sciences. l l P w f l Row 1: M. Mackin, W.
