Majestic ivy covered walls, sturdy oak paneling, solid unyielding steps, restful blending colors, comfortable easy chairs, and modern facilities, all spell Old College to the informed student. By far the most impressive and best loved building on campu s, professors clamor to get classes there. Especially in the winter when huge furnaces send toasty zephyrs to every nook and cranny, and the specially con- structed roof keeps wet old rain out, then do we all kneel in a silent prayer of thanks for our Old College. iqits GRADUATE Training of advanced students for a life of scholastic pursuits and individual research is the task undertaken by the Graduate School. Relieved of the undergraduate trials of set schedules and weekly exer- cises, the graduate student is free to work under his own direction. The increase of scholastic development and independence is the aim of such a specialized program. Increased recognition is being offered both studer ts and faculty members in the field of individual research. Upper division of the Graduate School is the Graduate School of Research, organizeo in 1933 to stimulate original investigation and creative scholarship. Truly a training ground for astute scholars is this division of the University. Milton MctfcsscI John Kessel Dean Rockwell D. Hunt Lawrence Riddle

Olson Philip Libby GOVERNMENT Names of students working under the banner of the School of Govern- ment may well be the names that will find their way onto election ballots in future campaigns, for it is the task of training men and women for careers in public life that this department has taken upon itself. Regular courses are offered on the campus, and an extensive program of study is offered in the late afternoon and evening classes of University College. The past year has found the School of Government rapidly increasing its scope and gaining an enviable reputation among its national colleagues. Newest course to be given in regular sessions began in February — training in police investigation under the direction of federal officers. John McDiarmid John Pfiffner
