The second course, offered in spi; limited facilities, wis in the held of electricity. Through the years these shops have grown and at the present feature four courses in auto mechanics, three in electricity, two in radio, two in general mechanics, physics III (strength of materials). .uu general industrial mechanics.

Graphic Arts Deportment 1 he trends in industrial education have been such that the importance of drawing in connection with shop work has been revealed more and more. When the college was first opened, only one course in mechanical drawing was offered in the curriculum: however, at the present time, because ol enlarged facilities, some fifteen courses are being offered to students now in attendance. Drawings related an printing lias been taught at Stout since 1 ( 17 and the future trend is to correlate print- ing and drawing courses to facilitate the application ot the principles ol layout and design, color the- ory, and bindery learned in one field for transfer to the other field. Also included in the graphic- arts are visual aids and school publications. [16]
