Graceful proportions and pic- turesque surroundings make the Dentistry Building one of the most attractive structures on the campus. The tall, wide windows suggest large, well- lighted workrooms within. Buzzing drills, leather chairs, tiny instruments, and minute particles of various compounds lend an atmosphere of extreme professionalism to the labora- tories. In the basement, the underclassmen adroitly juggle plaster casts and perform fun- damental operations while above, the more experienced serve the public. The long lines of waiting patients attest to the excellence of work well done — of service meritoriously rendered, and of skill which reflects high scholarship, good instruction, and modern equip- ment.

An impressive group of clas- sically proportioned white coU umns supporting graceful fres- coes and entablatures comprise the entrances to the Library — the inner heart of the Univer- sity. No other building is so beautiful — nor so significant. Within are the offices of the ad- ministration, and the library it- self. From the offices are di- rected the policies of the insti- tution; there are its ideals and activities outlined. In the read- ing rooms thousands daily ab- sorb prescribed knotvledge and conduct research work in many subjects. It is the foundation of campus knowledge — from it all things emanate. In its com- manding position, it at once in- spires affection and respect. It is the something about which all else turns — the shrine to which men return to offer their all in gratitude and love.

A mass of green surrounding impressive brick buildings and dotted here and there by bril- liantly colored flower beds, makes the Agricultural College Campus a spot of unusual beauty. Along the walks, tall, stately trees arch the way, while trimmed hedges serve as lines of demarcation at corners and intersections. The buildings themselves are picturesquely sit- uated on the hill tops overlook- ing the industrial and residence sections of the cities. Vast stretches of velvety green, bro- ken by shrubbery and dazzlingly white tennis courts at uniform intervals, make an unforgettable picture — a picture that inspires the best, demands the most, and calls for ivork well done. iTmniTirrinnniinni»|-i
