James E. Perdue, Ph.D., Dean The college of Liberal Arts and Sciences is-composed of a varied group of schools, including nursing, edu- cation, communication arts, music, art, chemistry, physics, etc. The objectives of the College of Arts and Sciences is to provide the student an opportunity for a broad education and at the same time give him a chance to choose his own special field. With this end in view the educational plan of the college is organized as follows: a lower division program which includes a group of required general studies, and an upper division program of advanced studies which includes those courses prescribed by the de- partment in which the student chooses to specialize. John Stuart Mill once said: 'LlVlen are men before they are lawyers or physicians or manufacturers, if you make them capable and sensible men, they will make themselves capable and sensible lawyers or physicians. The College of Arts and Sciences tries to give its students this over-all preparation for spe- cialization.
