The award, usually given to an upper classrnan for exceptional creative work and high scholarship, was for the first time given to two sophomores because of their outstanding work. The department now has 202 original paintings and graphic arts, approximately 22,000 fine reproduc- tions, and 1,000 kodachromes, lantern slides and film strips.

Accounting data are widely used by all types of businesses and by the government. Students who have broad training in the field of business supplemented by intensive preparation in the field of accounting may find professional opportunities in public or private accounting or in govern- mental or non-profit institutional services. The Accounting Department welcomed Ralph lVl. Williams as assistant professor this year. lVlr. Wil- liams has had extensive experience as a teacher in various universities. He came to us from the University of Indiana where he had been doing graduate work. The main object of the Department of Retailing is to prepare students for management positions in the retailing field. The program itself is based on a broad plan o-f education, with specialized courses in retailing during the last two years. Students who enroll in the program are aided in getting part time positions in retail stores, particularly in the junior and senior years. During these last two years credit is given for this store- service laboratory. The Associated Retailers of Omaha work very closely with the University and currently provide l2 scholarships of 3250 each for students who have good scholarship and an interest in following retail- ing as a career. The Secretarial Science Department stresses the importance of sound training in both office fundamentals and human relations, even in this era of automation. In order to make this training more realistic and comprehensive, a new course, Office Machines, was added in the fall semester of 1957.
