School of Architecture and Allied Arts Development of creative faculties is the aim of the School of Architecture and Allied Arts. Around its cloistered court in the far corner of the campus, across University Street from the new heating plant, is grouped its Depart- ments of Architecture, Fine Arts, and Normal Arts. The Department of Architecture conducts courses in principles of construction and de- sign, in the technique of pencil, pen and brush essential to accurate and effective presentation, with such courses in history and practice as may supply acquaintance with the best ex- amples of historic architecture, and a proper sense of the applicability of the precedents set therein to the design and purposes of modern buildings. The Department of Fine Arts has classes in all forms of delineation, including oil and water color painting, pastel, c1'ayon and char- coal drawing, as well as modeling in clay or plastolene, from life, cast, or natureg also, classes in decorative design, with advanced work in mural painting and stained glass. The Department of Normal Arts furnishes experience in designing and in processes of pro- duction of objects of the industrial arts, such as dress design, textile patterns and weaving, tile making and baslcetry, and the training of teachers for public school instruction in art.

School of ' Education The general purpose of the school of edu- cation is to organize and correlate all the forces of the University which have for their ulti- mate aim the growth of the educational effic- iency of the state of Oregon. Many opportunities for specialization are given the progressive teacher by means of the professional training offered in the various de- partments of education and the academic in- struction given in the respective'University departments. The School of Education occupies new and well-equipped quarters on the southwest por- tion of the campus. A model high school is conducted in a building adjoining, thus fur- nishing an excellent laboratory for the training of teachers and the working out of new methods in educational practice. The students not only do actual teaching under supervision here, but also have the opportunity of observ- ing some of the best specimens of educational work done in the state.
