Students Convey Ideas Through English, Speech, and Languages One of the foremost needs of a college student in his preparation for the future is to learn how to successfully convey his ideas to others. William Iewell is adequately qualified to meet this need through its department of English, Speech, and Foreign Languages. It is the purpose of the English Department to teach each student the best and most literate methods in writing. He must learn to adapt his thoughts and ideas in a concise manner, present them interestingly, and express them in a gram- matically correct way. In addition to these skills, the student must learn to understand and interpret the ideas of others. This is done basically, through the study of literature. Another of the needs of expression is gained through the Department of Speech. Here, in the introductory courses, a freshman learns to speak publicly. Besides helping a student gain self-con- fidence, a speech course enables him to condense his thoughts and defend his own ideas. A more advanced student may learn the art of persuasive speech, oral interpretation, or proper dramatic techniques. Besides the study of one's own language, it is important to be able to understand the language and literature of another country. This may vary from a study of the classics in the departments of Greek and Latin to the translation of modern novels in Spanish, French, and German. lt is always beneficial to know how to understand the language and customs of another country. 23

Science and Mathematics Help Students Prepare for Careers No fields of study are better able to prepare a student for a future career than those of science and mathematics. ln this area the student may increase his knowledge in a specific type of curric- ulum while retaining his liberal arts background. The mathematics department at lewell has been designed to provide basic courses for all students as well as more difhcult courses for those who are planning to enter a certain profession. High school students with a strong mathematical background can bypass introductory algebra and trigonometry and begin with a speeded-up course in calculus with analytical geometry. A second helpful department is that of physics. The program has been planned to meet the needs 2-l -gy -xvmiiaa t.:i.::,e-F711 sf -1 L-,,,.-,-a -. .,,- ,, Hg L-H1 , Y of a mathematician, an engineer, a physician, Of a layman. ln addition to offering a full four year schedule of courses in physics, the department is well equipped and well staffed. The study of chemistry can prepare one for the medical professions, engineering, teaching, and positions in industry and government Work. Each year many chemistry students receive fellowships or assistantships for further graduate work. Biology can also be considered a practical field for it acquaints a student with the history and philosophy of biological ideas and also relates them to the social sciences.
