Counselors CATHERINE RODEWALD Director of Altrurio HaIL Counselors and dormitory directors play on important part in making the campus as much like the students own home as pos- sible. They may be consulted on almost any question and their job includes tutoring in anything From chemistry to economics, advising on infotuotions in true Dorothy Dix style, and being confidant, confessor, and friend. Much credit should be given to these student counselors who devote their time and eHorts to counseling new students and making their college life happier and more successful. 27

An old pair of shoes or a fellow student may be the subject of a picture, and rough sketches soon materialize into completed drawings. These students are the First to utilize South Campus when warm weather comes; acquiring a sun tan seems to be a requirement for the course. Philosophy Breaking away From the sociology department this year, the department of philosophy went on its merry way and tried to confuse students as best it could. Between Dr. Hoentzschel's HethicsH and Dr. Peiikun's HPlato , the students found plenty of food forthought and many of them became ardent followers of philosophic trends. Physical Education Intercollegiate sportsi menis and women's intromurois, advanced theory courses, and required courses are oil phases of the Physical Education Department. First aid, safety, Folk dancing, and leather work are as much a part of the department as basketball, Football, and baseball. 26
