COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES continued to furyiish cultural hac ground Dean Levin B. Broughton inE College of Arts and Sciences, most heterogeneous of the colleges, trains its stu- dents for many fields of endeavor and service. Though it stresses the liberal arts and sciences, courses are practical, leading to definite careers. The college influences its students in many ways, leading some to choose careers in social service work, some in the sciences, some in law and medicine, some in pyschology, and others in the liberal arts. Outstanding educators in many fields have gathered under the banner of the col- lege to impart some of their knowledge to the students and to teach them to lead useful lives. Whatever courses the students take they are prepared to be of some service to their university, their state, and the nation.

COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE dealt with problems of increased food production Dean Thomas B. Symons INo PHASE OF THE WORK at thc Uni- versity comes in closer contact with the people of Maryland than that of the College of Agricul- ture which has been especially busy during the last year in cooperation with federal and state agencies in the all-out effort for increased food production. From the standpoint of the student the strength of the College of Agriculture lies in the fact that there is a very close coordination between the in- structional, research, extension, and regulatory kmctions within the various departments. Those who give instruction to the students are closely associated with these various branches of service and in many cases devote a portion of their time to one or more of these activities. This close coordination of instructional, re- search, extension, and regulatory work results in a stronger faculty and a higher degree of speciali- zation than would otherwise be possible.
