DEPARTMENT OF ART AND MANUAL ARTS C. H. Bailey Head The Iowa State Teachers College, through the Department of Art and Man- ual Arts, offers a two-year curriculum in Manual Arts, a two-year curriculum in Art, a four-year curriculum with major in Art, and a four-year curriculum with ma- jor in Manual Arts. The department also offers many courses which are required on certain other curriculums and courses which are elective on all curriculums. Strong, successful teachers are being graduated from these curriculums, and the demand for such teachers is good. second Rote: Corley Conlon. I!. (J. Fulmer. H. Brown, Agnes Cole. Bertha Halt.

DEPARTMENT OF RELIGIOUS EDUCATION “There is no book so much read but so little understood as the Bible.” Therefore new fields are opening for the character education of our citizenship. Churches and Christian associations, colleges and high schools, chautauquas and summer assemblies, parent-teacher organizations, and women’s clubs are all asking for teachers prepared and qualified for giv- ing instruction in Bible teaching. The Bible courses of Iowa State Teachers Col- lege are planned to meet these needs. The historic method of Bible instruction is fol- lowed, combined with a deep sense of rev- erence which secs no conflict between sci- ence and intelligent faith. The work is constructive, not controversial, comprehen- sive, not sectarian, practical, not crcdal; and it is so presented as to awaken a new interest in this supreme source-book for religious education.

DEPARTMENT OF EDUCATION A teacher should have a good foundation of general culture on which to build her special training—the Department of Edu- cation aims to meet these demands as far as possible. The members of the staff come to their work with special equipment obtained in many colleges and universities, enabling them to give a wide and wholesome inter- pretation of professional service. Higher standards of character, scholarship, and training are continually demanded of those w ho would teach. From this point of view, the work of the Department seeks to be alert to the best educational thought, that the schools of Iowa may obtain the most efficient service from those sent from these halls. - 5 Z G.
