COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING The College of Engineering aims to prepare students for service as professional engineers. This is done by offering a curriculum composed of three main groups of subjects: courses in general scientific knowledge, technical courses in the sludent's own specialty and general humanistic-social courses. Approximately two-thirds of the work is required, with the remaining work electives to be selected by the student in his field of interest. These fields include aeronautical en- gineering, chemical engineering, civil engineering, electrical engineering, glass technology, industrial engineering, me- chanical engineering and engineering physics. Last ear was the first time the s ecialized de ree of Y P S bachelor of science was iven in chemical en ineerin , civil 3 g S engineering, electrical engineering, mechanical engineering and engineering physics. Courses in engineering was among the first established at the University of Toledo. Until 1923 the courses offered by the University were mainly those which now would be con- sidered those of the Hrst two years of engineering. ln 1910 the College of Industrial Science was established. This was the forerunner of the present College of Engineering, es- tablished in 1930. DR. JOHN B. BRANDEBERRY Dr. John B. Brandeberry, dean of the college of engineering and professor of mathematics and en- gineering mechanics, received the B.S. degree from Mount Union College, the M.A. degree from Ohio State University and the Ph.D. degree from the University of Michigan.

COLLEGE EDUCAT ON The College of Education, under the leadership of Dean David W. Henry, offers training for students desiring to enter the career of teaching and opportunity for improvement to those already in service. Within the past few years, there has been a great increase in the number of students enrolled in the college. The elementary education department alone has doubled its enrollment in the last two years. For students desiring to major in the field of art, the internationally famous Toledo Museum of Art provides classes in drawing, designing, painting and art appreciation. The physical education department offers courses in theory and practice of coaching to both men and women.students. Because of the rapid growth in the University's music de- partment, the Ohio Department of Education during the past year approved the public school music major. Seniors in the college do their student teaching in public schools of Toledo and suburban communities. A teacher placement bureau is maintained for the con- venience of administrators who may desire the services of qualified candidates and for the convenience of the candi- dates themselves. Last year the placement bureau found positions for 138 seniors and alumni of the University in public schools in several states.

Dean Fornoff is president of and is active in the League of Ohio Law Schools, an accrediting agency of the Supreme Court of the state of Ohio. COLLEGE OF LAW The College of Law produces not only good practicing lawyers, but also good executives in business and industry. For many students it is a good general and specialized edu- cation for other jobs. The law curriculum here is scheduled for about eight hours a semester, three nights a week and covering a period of about four years. This system permits students to do a thorough job on each course as they go along. It also permits students to have full-time jobs during the daytime. The majority of students are 25 years of age or older, are serious, mature and ambitious. The University of Toledo was one of the first law schools with students attending on a part-time basis to get tentative approval by the American Bar Association. This was done in 1939, full approval was given in 1941. The law college is a charter member of the League of Ohio Law Schools, or- ganized in 1934. The College has a carefully selected library of 18,000 volumes which is growing steadily with purchases and many gifts. The students also have access to the Toledo Law Association library of 25,000 volumes, to which they are in- vited by special action of the Association. E 'M-M fs 'J' YW, H. - W, , - 1iif '!WY
