COLLEGE OF EDUCATION The University of Washington was the site of the first teacher training in the state with first instruction given in 1878. In 1914, it became the first College of Education at any state university. The college offers a cadet teacher training program and also includes a curriculum workshop, a consultative program, and a reading clinic. Restoration of elementary and secondary teaching certificates has been a major concern of the College of Education. At present students in teacher training earn a general certificate which allows them to teach in any grade through high school. The elementary and secondary certifi- cates provide for specific training at those levels permitting greater intensification in the subject matter area of the student ' s interest. Dean Francis F. Powers Education faculty and students hear a guest speaker from a subject matter department. COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING The College of Engineering offers a genera! course to its freshman stu- dents In the General Engineering Department. After the first year, under- graduates may specialize In any one of these fields of engineering: aeronautical, chemical, civil, electrical, mechanical, mining, metallurgical, or ceramic. They also take prescribed courses in humanistic-social studies. Besides the regular four year program, the college offers a course in industrial engineering for which a second bachelor ' s degree is awarded at the end of five years. All curricula are accredited by the Engineers ' Council for Professional Development, the principal accrediting agency recognized by the engi- neering profession in the United States. Among the other schools through- out the country, the College of Engineering at the University of Wash- ington Is recognized as a pioneer In Its establishment of a nuclear engineering program.

COLLEGE OF FISHERIES Throughout the history of the University, interest has been taken in the natural resources of the Northwest. This interest was evidenced by the establishment of the College of Fisheries in 1919. This college offers students an ideal balance of laboratory, classroom, and practical experience. in January, 1958, the Board of Regents reaffirmed this interest and rec- ognized the importance of fisheries to the economy of the area by incorporating the two fisheries groups on the campus, the School of Fisheries and the Fisheries Research Institute, into the re-established College of Fisheries. William F. Royce Fisheries Research Institute Dean Richard Van Cleve COLLEGE OF FORESTRY The College of Forestry at the University, founded in 1907, is accredited by the Society of American Foresters. This college trains its students in forest management, logging engineering, and forest products. Situated in the center of the northwest ' s lumber-producing area, the University offers students the opportunity to gain experience while working for their degrees. A highlight In the college this year is the 50th Anniversary celebration of Xi Sigma PI, forestry honorary. One of its founders on this campus, Dr. Bror Grondal, professor of forest products, is retiring after forty-five years of service to the University of Washington in the College of Forestry.
