133 rooms, comprising lecture and class rooms, a capacious library, centrally located storerooms with facilities for dispensing on each floor, and ample laboratory accommodations. The dispensing is done by the Chemistry Store, which supplies chem- icals and chemical apparatus for the entire University. GEOLOGICAL LABORATORY The Department of Geolcgy is located in the Natural Science Building and the University Iuseums Building. Special labora- tories have been provided for the work in general geology, his- torical geology, paleontology, physiography, and economic and soil geology. The paleontological collections are arranged in the University Museums Building. Meteorological instruments are conveniently located on the roof of the Natural Science Building. AXCELL HALL AT NIGHT LANDSCAPE DESIGN NICHOLS ARBORETUM The Nichols Arboretum had its inception in a gift of land from Mr. Walter H. Nichols, B.S. (Chem.) ' 91, and Mrs. Esther B. Nichols, B.S. ' 94. The plan for its development includes three distinct features; the development of the natural beauty of the tract as a public park; a collection of woody plants native in Michigan; and a collection of trees, shrubs, and herbaceous plants that are used in landscape design. The plan is being developed in such a way that the student will be able to study in detail, not only the individual plants, both native and exotic, which are used in landscape practice, but also grouping and arrangement. The equipment of the Arboretum includes an adequate greenhouse and hearing plant. MATHEMATICAL STATISTICS LABORATORIES These laboratories are installed in two rooms on the third floor and two rooms in the basement of Angell Hall. The equipment includes practically all types of calculating, sorting, and tabulating machines, quadrature and integrating instruments, and harmonic analyzers. Adequate provision is made for accurate graphical work by a fine equipment of drawing tables and instruments. MlXERALOGICAL LABORATORY The mineralogical laboratory is well equipped with crystal models, natural crystals, and lecture and working collections of minerals,, rocks, and thin sectons. There is an excellent equip- ment of goniometers, polarization microscopes, and other crystallographic-optical instruments necessary for the thorough study of minerals. The blowpipe and chemical laboratories possess every facility for the qualitative and quantitative determination of minerals and rocks. PHYSICS LABORATORIES est Physics Building. The elementary work in physics is carried on in the West Physics Building. Besides the facilities for teaching, this laboratory houses a storage batten,-, a glass- blowing room, the department instrument ship, and a liquid-air plant. East Physics Building. Advanced work and research in physics have been removed to the first unit of the East Physics Building. Laboratories are provided for heat and high-temperature measurements, sound, light and applied optics, radioactivity, electrical measurements, and vacuum tubes, all supplied with adjacent apparatus, research, and consultation rooms. PsYCOLOGICAL LABORATORY The psycological laboratory in the Natural Science Building is an optics room, a series of large darkrooms that can be connected, a soundproof room and neighboring rooms for acoustics, and a room specially designed for a large maze, in addition to many other specially constructed accessories. The equipment includes sets of most of the standard apparatus in the different fields. ZOOLOGICAL LABORATORY The Department of Zoology, in the Natural Science Building, is equipped with general and special laboratories and other facilities for teaching and research. The Laboratory of Vertebrate Genetics. The laboratory of ertebrate Genetics occupies a modern two-story building on the northern part of the University property. Laboratory space and equipment are available for studies of the heredity, variation, and ecology of small mammals. Page 23 NATURAL SCIENCE AVDITORIUM
