BUSINESS EDUCATION Under the capable guidance and direction of Dr. Lloyd V. Douglas, our Business department is turning out competent teachers of business subjects, whose big job will include contributing to pupil understanding of his economic environment, developing occupational in- telligence. and providing sound, practical skill training for those who want a career in business. The past few years have witnessed rapid expansion in the Business department of ISTC. With over three hundred business majors at present, the department has extended its facilities and offerings to cope with their needs. Besides the traditional typing, shorthand, business law. and introductory business courses, the curriculum includes courses in advanced accounting, office machines, merchandising, retail selling, insurance, advertising, office procedure, and teaching of business subjects. Directed work experience, a relatively new part of the program, provides actual job-training for which the student may earn credit. DR. L V. DOUGLAS Hoad of Department JAMES T. BLANFORD.

ART DEPARTMENT I MR. H. S. GUILLAUME Head of Department As the result of a desire to strengthen the art pro- gram at the college, the Department of Art was divided from the Department of Art and Industrial Arts last fall and set up as a separate division. Harry G. Guill aume was appointed to direct the art program with the aid of seven instructors. One of the outstanding events in the short history of the newly-created department was moving into the beautiful new Arts and Industries building. At the beginning of the spring quarter, the first art classes were held in their new home—the second floor of the most modern building on the campus. At least one wall of every room is composed of floor-to-ceiling windows, providing an abundance of natural light. The large rooms also afford the much-needed elbow-space for students in drawing, painting, designing and other art classes. CORLEY A. CONLON. Assistant Pro- fessor of Art CHARLES W. FROTHINGHAM.

EDUCATION DR. E. C. DENNY Head of Department Every Teachers College student who wishes to enter the teaching profession, eventually becomes acquainted with the Department of Education. Courses offered in this department give the future teachers background for understanding school children and their problems. These courses reflect the new trends in education in methods of teaching, supervision, administration, vo- cational guidance, visual education, measuring student progress and the personality development of children. This summer will sec the inauguration of a new plan in the education department. The greatest changes will be made in the two-year elementary and kindergarten- primary curriculum which formerly allowed no elective courses. With the new plan these students will be al- lowed 13 to 16 hours of elective courses, thus providing more observation time in the Campus School in such courses as psychology, reading, music and art.
