Psychological Interviewing, and The Psychology of Vocational Adjustment-were given this year for the first time. The standard program provides a two-year program in which five basic courses will be offered each year and six advanced courses will be given on an alternate-year basis. This will permit three modestly-specialized programs to be offered: General and Industrial Psychology, Child and Edu- cational, and Clinical and Counseling Psychology. Dean of Students Norbert Baumgart taught the new one- year course in Psychological Interviewing, and has agreed to continue teaching the course once a year on a two-hour basis. A movie entitled ulndividual Differences and taped lectures by Karen Horney on 'cCan Human Nature Change? and by Calvin Hall on Dreams and Personalityn were pur- chased by the department during the year, and materials for fourteen additional standard aptitude and achievement tests were added to the departmental resources.

The May 11-12 retreat will be under the direction of Father M. Ansgar, retreat mas-ter at the ab- bey. Members of the Wilmington party will attend mass at least three times, including a special mass for the visitors. There will be four discussion conferences to help students learn about monastic life and its philosophy. The primary purpose of the trip, according to Dr. T. Canby Jones, chairman of Wilmington's religion and philosophy depart- ment, is to acquaint religion stu- dents with life in a monastic ord- er. None of the students are Rom- an Catholics and the experience will help them to understand the monks and their lives. The com- mon conception of monks as quiet, withdrawn and serious is only one sideg they also have a lively sense of humor. l A 1 E

Wilmington's team made total earnings of 31,696,000 for the imaginary three years of the game which began last October. Final quarter profits for the Quak- er school totaled S295,000. The lo- cal team was third in earnings at the end of the second year of the game in Marchg it was first in the third-quarter report and has taken the lead in cumulative earn- ings twice. . Iowa Wesleyan College, leader throughout most of the six months of play in the Mid-America Aca- demic Conference, won first place with paper profits of 51,774,000 Wisconsin State College at Eau Claire was third with 51,652,000 Dr. Martin Giesbrecht, assistant professor of economics and busi- ness, one of the Wilmington team's advisors, described the game as a terrific teaching tech- nique for both students and facul- ty. It has given students an oppor- tunity to see the workings of indus- try in our American free enter- prise system and they have been able to meet local businessmen who served as advisors for the game. It has also stimulated interest in graduate school and winning second place has made Wilming- ton students proud of their accom- plishment and the college's eco- nomics program, he said. Dr. Evalyn Hibner, associate professor of economics and busi- ness, the other team advisor, termed the project valuable be- cause it demonstrated the necessi- ty of determining long-range goals in business and the need for cor- relating policy decisions toward the attainment of these objectives. It -also showed the wisdom of pro- viding for some degree of flexibili- ty in order to meet current unpre- dictable situations, she explained. ik 6 2k STUDENTS AT each of the nine schools in the conference formed teams which became operating of- ficers of imaginary manufacturing firms last October. Each of the firms reported assets of S13 mil- lion and annual net profits after taxes of about S70,000. Every two weeks, representing a quarterly business report, each team sub- mitted its current business deci- sions to Indiana University where they were fed into an electronic compulter. Other schools in the conference, in order of their final placings, were University of Southwestern Louisiana at Lafaye-tte, Delta Col- lege at University Center, Mich. Denison University at Granville Valdosta tGa.l State College, Au- gustana College of Rock Island Ill., and Rockhurts College at Kan- sas City, Mo. Summarizing the results, Prof. L. L. Waters of Indiana said, The nice thing about the game was that when the students did lose, it was their pride and not their pocket- books that suffered. 1 3 1
