Community The Community College seeks to assess and service the needs and interests of citizens in the metro- politan area of Denver. These services fall into two major classifications: the traditional academic programs of the degree-granting colleges of the University which provide evening classes with degree credit for those who are employed and who seek personal or professional advancement or study leading to the attainment of an academic degreeg and the Community Service courses, insti- tutes, conferences and a variety of services in which the emphasis is somewhat different for the learner than that traditionally associated with academic courses. Graduate This year approximately 25 per cent of DU's enrollment consists of graduate students. Many of these are enrolled in the schools of librarianship or social work, but DU offers advanced degrees in most of its undergrad- uate instruction areas. The Graduate School offers the student an opportunity to prepare himself for a profes- sion, to study in advanced subject matter fields and to learn the objectives and tech- niques of scholarly investigation and re- search. Though formal courses constitute the core of requirements for a degree, the student is expected to expand his activities and to supplement classroom instruction with inde- pendent study and research appropriate to his individual objectives. mp- vt-.fl -. .f y -. -Y-1---? 1- ,g!,:-fgylllgaygiy:jj- ig - , -' 1 ,, .- :l:,1-7if'q'i31.V:'1i-'-fg-'.:.-. v 1' 'S 1 r.,2,.s.iQ3-955 -'Q f A ' .25 3 . .

Gordon Johnston, LLB., Dean Engineering Clarence M. Knudson, l'h.D., Dean Law The University of Denver College of Law has been training men and women in the under- standing and practice of the law for sixty-five years. The College today 'offers its students a program 'designed to give a functional and realistic approach to the needs of contempor- ary public and private practice of law. Among the advantages of the college is a unique program which allows many students to represent clients in the lower courts prior to their actual graduation and admission to the bar. Expanding to serve a growing Denver and Amer- ica, the College of Engineering this year has reorganized its programs, on the undergraduate level to emphasize the increasing amount of con- sideration of theory in engineering, and on the graduate level to serve specific industries which are rapidly growing in Denver. Already offering Master of Science Degrees in Chemical and Elec- trical Engineering, the College has added similar programs in Civil and Mechanical Engineering. In addition to its full-time teaching staff, research personnel from the Denver Research Institute serve the College as professors. Department Chairmen. Murlin T. Howerton, Pl1.D., Ch.E., Chemical Engi- neering: Wilbur H. Parks, M,S., M.E., Mechanical Engineering, Arlie E. Paige, M.S., E.E., Eleclrical Engineering, David O.
