i uiccnt A . = UjtiLptc :t DIRECTOR OF EVENING SCHOOL ... Through its regular evening courses and its lecture and other informal activities, the Lniversitv makes a serious effort to bring its educational facilities to the men and women of Cincinnati. It has organized its resources to develop courses and programs which are de- signed to meet the needs and interests of active men and women. The response to the Uni- versitv ' s effort is shown by the fact that more than eight thousand persons participated in this program during the current year. DEAN OF WOMEN ... Returning to the University of Cincinnati for the third time has been the most interesting experience anyone could have: first, because of a natural loyaltv, and second, because of the make-up of our student body. Half of our women work to secure an education and most of them are serious in their desire to develop their potentialities to the fullest. It is a priv- ilege to trv to furnish the information and counsel to make this possible. Lastly, I be- lieve in the value of the group experiences on the citv campus as a preparation of women for leadership in human affairs; especiallv in those fields of labor, education, and politics which today so urgently require a woman ' s sensitive- ness to human needs. That this preparation de- mands the development of an ability to work with men is not the least interesting part of our ' co-ed ' s training! dLt . P,dL DEAN OF MEN ... The average student at the University of Cincinnati spends approximately one-tenth of his time in the classroom and laboratory, nine- tenths of his time sleeping, eating, studying, working, plaving, or just plain loafing. When the extra-instructional activities of the student are integrated vith the academic, then there will be less of the just going to college ' and more co-ordinated growth. 26

L athetmc y . it uckLcn DIRECTOR OF MRSING ... It is probable tliat tlie most satisfactory solution to tlie prolilenis of nursing education can be ultimately offered by the university which is most effectively equipped, staffed and financed to provide sane leadership and to serve as a clearing house for educational ideas. A university setting and status, apart from the pro- vision of superior facilities for investigation and research, will probably give the study of nurs- ing problems a true dignity and attract a better average type of student. ' I ( LlTuOCLll ■ -JjltC ' L DIRECTOR OF HOUSEHOLD ADMINISTRATION ! . . This year is the centennial of higher edu- cation for women in the United States. The accomplishments of women in the past one hun- dred years are impressive. The University of Cincinnati presents unusually rich opportunities for women. In the profes- sional training offered by the School of House- hold Administration, the Faculty has recognized that the uniqueness of a University lies not so much in the courses taught since there is a strik- ing similarity in most universities in this re- spect, but in the way in vyhich courses are taught, in the spirit and feeling of fine fellowship that exists between faculty and students, and in the growth and development of the individual student. May our seniors match the courage, purposeful- ness. and ability that characterized those pio- neer women of a hundred years ago to whom all educated women today are indebted. ' 25

PRESENT THEMSELVES . . . AND here are some represeiitatixe faculty men caught by the candid camera man as he roamed about the campus looking for likely ma- terial : from Dr. Goudv of the graduate school as he hurries to a class, or was it lunch, through the laughing, working, and digging array of faculty members to the calm study of Dr. Schneider sunning himself before the ancient and traditional portals of his renowned engine school, we find, for the first time in many years, a section of the year-book deyoted to informal shots of our instructors, profs, and Deans as they stroll between classes, relax at iiome. or strive to put over some difficult point to a class of, what has for years been called, students. 27
