We li;i c llie imly College of Fish- eries ill the wiiild, outside of Jajmu, and it lias come into existence since llie silling of Jiir.l. Located at llie most sontliern extremity of a lonii ' way off, it occupies three of the old Naval Training Station buildings, and consists of Fishei-ies Halls Xo. 1 and 2 and the ( ' annei-y. This Cannery, fully equipiieil for demonstrations of all the known jiro- cesses of fish canning and curing, is the pride and delight of Professor John N. Cohli, director of the College and all those who labor over the iiacking tables. Nearby are several cement-lined jionds where fish frolic and wiggle the live-long day. They are used by (he de]iartment for hatchery work in cooperation with the riiitcd States Bureau of Fisheries and the State Fish ( ' oininission. Fisheries Halls No. 1 and :. ' are of the cosy little cottage ty]ie and are v ' arnislied and ] art it ioiied iiisidi- like modest dwelling places. lint insiead of dining tables, fireplaces, and pianos, are long laboratory tanks and writing desks. In llall No. 1, however, is the museum wiieie all forms of sea life and models of apparatus are exhibited an. I the walls are hung w iili ] ictnres of the ]iiscatorial family. How- came the College of Fisheries lo liie Cniversity of A ' ashiiigtoii ? In r.tU. when tli( Pacific Fisheries Society met in Seattle, il was decided that such a dejiartiueiit of instruction should 1 stablished somewhere on tlie Coast.

gi SS2 Washington, 1919-1920 WITH what pride uC pariicipaiiuu we look hack jii tlii.s year of unusual prosperity for our University — unusual in increase of faculty and student body, unusual in real achievement in every jihase of endeavor. Outstandinf!: is the enormous enrollment of five thousand the first quarter, for only twothirds of a Ii )Ui ]ilaus had heen luade. Dean David Thomson commends the spirit of coojieralion and noodl ' ellowsliip which chai ' acterizes the activities of the whole I ' niversity, and the operation of the institution under such trying circumstances: ' •This great increase of the student body necessarily caused a gi-eat deal of confusion at first, botli in tlie matter of classrooms and instructors required. However, everybody was jjoodiuitured about it and seemed willing to put up with a condition which ordinarily would have elicited many complaints. The slight drop of one hundred sixty-eight at the end of the .second quarter indicates the ai)proximate number which can be i-egarded practically permanent for 1910-20. Xo appreciable decrease is expected for the coming year. This attendance, so much greater than any in the history of Wash- ington, is partly accounted for by the I ' eturn of the service men, who represent three-tenths of the student body. Half of this phenomenal five thousand, though, are in the Freshman class, where the girls are outnumbered two to one. It is also interesting to note that the same ratio exists between men and woirien in llie total enrollment. The College of Business Administration attracted the largest following this year. Some of its classes were so large that Meany Hall was converted into a lecture hall. Some relief from this congestion of classes will be iilforded, however, with the completion by fall of I ' hilosophy Hall, the third twin of the triangle. The monster Stadium, for which plans are already completed, will remedy the acu te situation in athletics and physical education. This structure, originated and to be paid for by the Associated Students, represents one of the achievements of the year, in that it indicates the growth and jiower of initiative directed in the line of expansion. May till ' coining years continue lliis ]U ' ()s[i( ' rity. Page 11
