The Departments of English and Physics Certain members of the English department are fond of telling how its head. Dr. H. B. Jones, was ac- costed shortly after the departments of English and physics took over the old Alumni Building. I v .1 stu- dent looking for Dr. Speas. Dr. Jones looked around the third-floor English offices, then turned to the boy and said: Downstairs, sir. The physics department never gets this close to heaven. The Alumni Building is one of Wake Forest ' s most ancient relics. First used as medical classrooms when the School of Medicine was located there, it was closed for some time, but finally had to be re-opened to accom- modate classes in physics and English. Drs. Speas and Parker have the first floor to them- selves, their students and their apparatus, and they share part of the second floor with English classrooms. The third floor holds the English offices, conference and seminar rooms and the Little Theatre room, which also served in the Spring semester as a Shakespeare classroom for a record 76-member class. Perhaps because of the unity of interests, perhaps because of the fact that more than two-thirds of the enrolled student body have taken English courses each semester this year, this department is one of the most pleasantly-remembered of the sections of the liberal arts school. Its gentle, generous, pipe-smoking staff work together in a concord which is pleasant to behold — and a joy under which to work. Summarizing, a tour of the departments and the buildings of the academic Wake Forest, points out strikingly that in 1947-1948 the institution, as a school, has labored under stern conditions, and has kept at the same high level its outstanding grade of achievement.
