ART INSTRUCTORS: Mrs. Justine Landis and Mrs lames la ne. Phvllis Chisler comment Each area in the Liberal Arts department encourages students to gain more insight into their respective interest. On campus, Mr. DeVanGuardia lectured on aspects of world culture. Mr. Khanna spoke on native customs in India. An art exhibit each month in the West Wing of the li- brary attracted students and persons in the community. A new venture, Learning Unlimited, was organized for the YJC commuting students. In addition, trips were planned to Washington to visit national points of interest, and to nearby cities to attend theatrical and musical performances. DIRECTOR OF VISUAL AIDS: Miss Lar- amv Laramie.

In Liberal Arts — Projecting the Past WHAT IS THE GOAL OF THE LIB- ERAL ARTS DEPARTMENT? To develop students who are well- informed, well-rounded individuals is the goal of the liberal arts division. The purposes of such curricula are to give knowledge and encourage the pursuit of wisdom. Knowledge and wisdom work together, for wisdom is the per- sonal interpretation and application of knowledge. The liberal arts depart- ment is a combination of the lan- guages, fine arts, and social sciences. They form a solid foundation for fur- ther investigation, specialization, and the studv of man. SOCIAL SCIENCE INSTRUCTORS: Miss Phyllis Haberern. Dr. James R. Harnett, Leonid Murog, Dr. Philip C. Marshall. STANDING: Carlton B. Smith, Thompson J. McCullough. Robert H. Terry. i ' Mr . jJa?

Biology students could observe trop- ical and temperate zone fish in two new aquariums. A terrarium containing several lizards is also on display. Students of the anatomy and physiology classes were able to use the Kymograph to study muscle contraction and nerve impulses of the frog. In the general biology laboratory the dissection of the fetal pig and the demonstration by Mr. King of the Geiger counter were two interesting highlights. In the advanced chemistry courses this year, several new instruments were helpful in the iden- tification of components. The analytical students used the UV spectrophotometer to identify ele- ments, and they used a series of Ion exchange resins for chemical analysis. The gravitometer and refractometer aided organic students in the iden- tification of liquids. The college has not neglected the importance of mathematics in the advanced and empirical age, as it provides numerous courses for the interested student, ranging in studies from the modern mathematics ' to the more advanced studies in An- alytical Geometry and Calculus.
