Goodrich . . . home of physical science. . . Goodrich Hall provides a home for the many physical scientists which infest the campus. The mathematicians—sometimes excluded from this cat- egory—also dwell in Goodrich Hall. Two students search to find the secret of life, or something like that, in a Goodrich lab. Erected in 1938, Goodrich furn ishes the labora- tory equipment necessary for a good undergraduate background in physics, chemistry, or mathematics. These departments have the courses and materials to set Wabash sciences with the best in small col- leges. The mathematics department is looking for- ward to installing a computer in Goodrich soon; this would be a great aid to all of the sciences as well as to easing the load of administrative work.

A student art exhibit appeared in Yan- des Gallery near the close of school. Yandes .. . artistic yet functional . . . After serving 67 years as the college library, Yandes Hall was remodeled in 1959 to provide space for the departments of Fine Arts, German, 28 and Romance Languages. To aid these departments it houses large art rooms and tape recorders for language teaching. Perhaps the most noticeable aspect of Yandes is the large exhibition hall on the first floor, featuring various art exhibits and providing space for small presentations on stage.
