Grad School Requires Modern Language Exam WILFRID H. CALLCOTT Dean of Graduate School UNDER the supervision of Dean Wilfrid H. Callcott the Graduate School has been steadily growing. An education equivalent to that represented by a baccalaureate degree and suf- ficient maturity to enter courses of advanced study are requisites for entrance. Credentials for admission include an analysis of courses taken and the grades earned, and the standing gained on the Graduate Record Examination. Individual attention is given to each application. In the ma- jority of the schools on campus, a student may obtain an advanced degree fro m the Graduate School upon completion of required course work and attendant obligations. Each candidate for the degree of Master of Arts or Master of Science is required, as soon as he begins work on his Master ' s program, to pass an examination which will demonstrate a reading knowledge of a modern foreign language. In addition to the course work, a comprehensive final examination and a thesis on a portion of his major field of concentration is required of all candidates for graduate degrees. Amid intricate laboratory apparatus, graduate students conduct complicated and highly technical experiments. Graduate student Gerry Driggers finds a moment in her schedule to grade her class ' Political Science papers. 30

Dean Clotworthy Counsels All Carolina ' s Women THE life that Miss Elizabeth Clotworthy, Dean of Women, leads is a busy one. Her chief concern is for the welfare and the personal and social problems of Carolina women. She spends a great deal of her time listening to the problems of her girls, sometimes offering advice, but more often helping the girls reach their own decisions. At many schools the Dean of Women is con- sidered a person far removed from campus life, a situation which is not true at USC. The door of the Dean ' s office is always open, and she is ready to be a friend to all who need her. Her importance is recognized also by other deans throughout the state, and they elected her president of the State Association of Women Deans, and Counsellors for 1960. Another honor recently accorded her was her selection to Who ' s Who in American Women. The deep regard she has for her girls is seen in everything she does, from personally greeting new students to helping prepare the girls for their careers after they leave school. MISS ELIZABETH CLOTWORTHY Dean of Women Friendly and informal discussions in Dean Clotworthy ' s office usually dissolve even the most momentous problem.
