RELIGION The Iliff School of Theology, famous for its liberal views of religion, went on training graduate students for the ministry, lending such scholars as Dr. Bernhardt to D.U. to teach a course in the Humanities. Our own Dr. Sampson, ably expounding the aesthetic approach to religion in his D.U. classes, reciprocated by teaching a! the Iliff Seminary. MUSIC Music students divided their time between the Lamont School of music (which continued its weekly broadcasts over KOA) and campus, where Carl Schmidt taught teachers-to-be Bossie Cow and other songs. 26

The Department of English closely cooperated with the Speech Department with its course on English Expression, which is offered in addition to Freshmen English, as well as the literature courses. Laurels were heaped on Dr. Davidson by the Rockefeller Foundation, and he was given a grant to study Western culture, a subject in which he specializes. Students interested in journalism (and there were a few) submitted articles and in'erviews to Mr. and Mrs. Foster of the Rocky Mountain News (a Scripps-Howard paper of which Mr. Fos:er is the editor.) Practical journalistic experience was acquired by budding editors and columnists on the Denver Clarion, our own weekly paper, which managed to get its usual share of trouble. 25

B. P.ensud. Manor! Bow. axxJ 5run y w- ANTHROPOLOGY HISTORY Dr. Scofield was the mainstay of the History Department, as in former years, while Dr. Wool-bert specialized in stimulating classes in international relations. It was good to see Dr. Dickinson advocating (with great vigor) the doctrine of Pragmatism. His ideas, while disturbing to some, proved thought-provoking to all. Any resemblance between Dr. Renaud (our professor of Anthropology) and Hamlet is purely coincidental. (See cut.) Frank Dickinson pt. L. W- Scoi Dr. n. G. Woolbort 27
