College of Liberal Arts IVE traits have been said preeminently to distinguish the educated man: First, correctness, precision and ease in the use of the wealth of resources in his mother tongue, second, refined and gentle manners, the natural out- growth of fixed habits of thought and action, third, the power and habit of refiection, of attaining to and applying fixed standards of truth, human expe- rience, and wisdom, by which new proposals may be judged, fourth, the power of growth, the ability to escape more and more from the limitations of provin- cialism and to attain to increasingly broader views of character and conduct, and, finally, efficiency, or being an effective instrumentality in the affairs of mankind. The College of Liberal Arts of the University of Southern California exists for the purpose of producing men and women of this type. Her graduates should be gentlemen and ladies in soul and conduct, with breadth of vision and depth of insight, ready of speech and effective in action. To be what they should, they must be brought in contact with the moulding infiuences of each of the great classes of studies, historic, philosophic, scientific, linguistic. To do in life to the utmost of their capacity, they must be given especial training in that particular line of endeavor that is best suited to the natural endowments of each. The attainment of both these ends necessitates a combination of required general studies with an elective major or special department of study, and furthermore, these purposes determine the organization of the College into Lower, Upper, and Graduate Schools. As Freshman and Sophomore the youth comes in touch with the glory that was Greece and the grandeur that was Rome , he elects a magic key that will open to him the treasures of a foreign realm of thought, he explores the wonders of nature in the domain of plant or animal life or seeks to understand the great natural laws that control the combinations of the primal elements, he studies the operations of the human intellect, and he cultivates those potencies of the written word that shall give him power among men. And thus, through contact with many activities, is he given wisdom to select his future work. For he finds many fields open before him for special cultivation: History, Sociology, Economics, and Political Science, Philosophy, Education, the Literature of his own tongue, the languages of Greece, Rome, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, and the Orient, studies in the Bible, Music, Oratory, Art and Design, Mathematics, Botany and Zoology, Physics and Chemistry, and the applied sciences in the various departments of Engineering. One of these fields he makes in a special sense his own, and his are to be the fruits thereof, if he be worthy. In this field he labors for two years more, reaping where others have sown, not, it is hoped, selfishly appropriating for his own good, but rather seeking to obtain that he may bear to others the riches that have come to his hand. That they may be, in the richest sense of the word, worthy of their oppor- tunities is the high prayer of their Alma Mater for all her children, past, present, and in the long generations yet to come!
