RT .i CE At the head of the School of Science and Engi- neering is able, friendly Dean Reuben. Edson Nys- wander, who for the past nineteen years has been connected with the Department of Physics and Electrical Engineering at the University of Denver. Under the supervision of Chancellor Buchtel, the School of Science and Engineering was estab- lished in 1912.

E VER CHUUL UP DEAN R. H. WOLCOTT School of Law Finality to the student at the School of Law means the attainment of a degree in law and en- trance to the bar. In preparation for this accom- plishment many wcary hours are spent pouring over Blackstone and haranguing in moot court. Future barristers are aided in the search for legal knowledge by Roger H. Wolcott, who has served as the Dean of Law School for ten years. He pre- sides over the mock courts that the students hold in connection with their courses, and has super- vised tlie additions and improvements made at the downtown school during the past two years. Dean Wolcott sponsors Delta Lambda Sigma, the pre- legal fraternity, as an encouragement to embryo lawyers.
