TO THE CLASS OF 1937 C On account of the nature of my work I have been absent from the University most of this year. I have missed very much the association with you in your senior activities. I'You will be graduated at a time when the economic conditions of the country are quite measurably improved, and you will probably find it not so difficult to locate proper places in the workaday world. You will, however, probably have several adjustments to make before you feel that you are permanently and satisfactorily located. Do not let that discourage you. It is a perfectly normal course. il As you leave the student body and join the alumni you remain of course a member of the growing family of the University. Your future welfare and happiness will always concern us. B. F. ASHE PRESIDENT

THE COLLEGES COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS ami SCHOOL OF EDUCATION Along with the continual and natural growth of the University of Miami, the College of Liberal Arts has expanded yearly under the capable and enthusiastic guidance of Dean Henry S. West. Always the root of learning in the university, the College of Liberal Arts has steadily increased the selection in all its courses to meet the diverse demands and tastes of a growing student body. Revisions and additions have been made to keep up with the latest in education. A number of courses in English. Educa tion. History, Dramatics. Psychology. Language. Mathematics. Chemistry. Physics and Natural Science are offered. The English department has included among its instructors such outstanding people in the field of literature and art as Mary and Padraic Colum. Edward Davison and Virgil Barker. The Winter Institute of Literature has brought a host of literary figures to tlx students and the Miami public. The course of Journalism has been recently added to tlx regular curriculum. Plans for tlx near future arc to increase the courses in journalism to enable the student to obtain a major or minor in tlx field. Future hopes are for the establishment of a School of Jounalism. Distinctive features of the University of Miami lie. for one. in the dramatics department. There, a student has the opportunity to take part in the putting on of a play, in addition to merely learning his lines and performing before a public. Students have the actual experience of designing and constructing sets and costumes. They practice the art of make-up and stage mechanics. Distinctive, too. is the course in Marine Zoology offered to a limited group and enjoyed each Spring at tlx University of Miami. Few universities have the unique privilege of offering their students direct study of marine habitation. Late afternoon and evening classes are offered to instructors in South Florida
