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. COMMERCE Below: The Law School's moot court held a March session which resulted in unknown persons being inflicted for unknown misde- meanors. Lower Right: Lawyers enter prac- tice court carrying texthooks that proved as heavy as their renders in weight and heavier in content. 26

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. Though the Gas House with its pungent aroma is the personincation of imper- sonal science, seekers of knowledge within its walls hold a certain reverence for its worn halls and jumbled laboratories. Here many an aspiring scientist mixes colored fluids with a dim vision of the Hall of Fame before him. Lower Left: Future Pasteurs are fascinated spectators to the drama of natural and physi- cal science being staged before their eyes. Lower Right: Students are trained to realize that even the most minute speck may be a blundering Culliver in disguise. GI EERI DEAN R. E.

AW CCUU S AN FIN!-XNQ One ofthe important additions to the University of Denver under Chancellor Buchtel's administra- tion was the founding of the School of Commerce, Accounts, and Finance. The first degree given in this department Went to Clem Collins, who is the present Dean of Commerce. Taking the position of Dean in the fall of 1937, Dean Collins has already entered new Helds for the University of Denver. He instituted and elabo- rated an eiiicient advisory system for Commerce students which has been very helpful to many dur- ing the past year. Dean Collins has also brought honor to the Uni- versity by his election to the office of president of the American Institute of Accountants. Lower Left: Computing machines' prove to be more than studies in mechanical opera- tion at the School of Commerce because stu- dents use them as substitutes for brainwork. Lower Right: Fire drill at the downtown school reveals that students can drop their work at a moment's notice. 27 Ji- DEAN C. W. COLLINS School of Commerce, Accounts, and Finance
