1930 CACTUS This man precise and quite astute, He ' s Dean of Education. The young idea must learn to shoot — This is his occupation. That ' s Pittenger. CCLLEGE Or CDUCATICN THE College of Education originated in 1891, and, like most of the now dis- tinct divisions of the University, it was for many years a department of the College of Arts and Sciences. It was in 1905 that a separation was made and the College of Education was organized as an individual unit. A change in the structure of the school was made in 1920, and it is this form which exists at the present date. The building and equipment of the College of Education are not surpassed in any other University in the United States and are conceded to be the best in the South. The work in this school is devoted primarily to the instruction and training of teachers. The Austin Public Schools have co-operated with the University, and students are afforded the opportunity of actual practice teaching in various classes in the Public Schools of Austin, where research and laboratory work are done also.

1930 CACTUS Sales, ads, accounts, and all such stuff, Compose his daily ration, But if you think his pose is bluff. You ' ll get a revelation. That ' s Fitz. scuccl cr BUSINESS VIUIMMI VIMS THE School of Business Administration was first created as a department of the College of Arts and Sciences in 1912. It was in 1923 when the enrollment had grown to such an extent and the courses of- fered had increased to such a number that it became advisable to give the work in business ad- ministration in a separate school. While the School does not have a building of its own, due to the pressing demand for other structures on the campus, nevertheless the classes have been re- moved for the most part from the shacks and are now conducted in Garrison Hall. When a graduate of this School is asked, What experience have you had? he can not say None. Three to six months of business experience is required of every student before he com- pletes his last semester of work. Whatever the experience may be, the student is expected to learn how the business is operated, something of its chief problems, and the methods of manage- ment. To demonstrate this acquaintanceship the student prepares and presents to the Dean a comprehensive report upon his experience. First row — Cox, Whitk, Thompson, BOVD, N ' i.wi.ovi:.

IQ30 CACTUS A quiet man who rolls his pills Our ailments to relieve; He also warbles, sings and trills, As you can scarce believe. That ' s Gidley. COLLEGE CE PHACMACy THE College of Pharmacy of the Uni- versity of Texas was inaugurated in 1893 when it was a part of the School of Medicine at Galveston. The Board of Regents, in the summer of 1927, voted to move the College of Pharmacy to the main University at Austin, and in 1928 the transfer of the faculty and equipment was accomplished. The change resulted in the elimination of more than a score of courses in chemistry and physics, because the work could be given in the Pharmacy Department and thus prevent duplication of work given by the University. The school has recognized the tendency of the country at large to demand graduation from colleges of pharmacy having well-equipped laboratories as a prerequisite for the practice of pharmacy, and it meets fully the requirements of the thirty-six States in which laws are in force making college training mandatory.
