F, W. CHANDLER. AB.. A.M., Ph.D. Dean of the College of Liberal Arts. lt is the function of the College of Liberal Arts in every University to provide general training as distinguished from professional. Colleges of law, medicine, engineering, business administration, dentistry, forestry, or teaching prepare for special vocations. But the College of Liberal Arts aims primarily to develop disciplined minds and to acquaint them with the principles of knowledge in many fields. Its objective is not vocational but cultural training. It lays the foundations upon which specialization can best be built, and it prepares for the intelligent use of leisure-the practice of that art of living which is even more important than the art of making a livelihood. 21

I-I. SCHNEIDER, B. S., Sc. D. Dean of the College of Engineering and Commerce. We cannot avoid moving in the circle of duties which life imposes. But we can take outward explanatory fliers on tangents into new reaches of intellectual discovery and adventure. Every time we do this we widen the radius of our imposed orbit of influence, the swing of life becomes greater. That is why I believe first in a professional course which gives each of us a big circle of initial action, and second in a wealth of other activities outside of our duty-fields-to give us the tangential movements which make our paths ever widening spirals rather than fixed and cramped orbits. 5 0 22
