PIIILDSDPIIY AND RELIGIDN The Department of Philosophy and Religion at Youngstown College is organized around three major objectives: First, the equipment of those who desire grounding in preparation for careers in the world of thought, with a sound major in the various branches of philosophyg second, the pro- vision of a broad background of sympathetic orientation for those planning to do religious work, and third, the maintenance of a constantly available source of information to which each student may come to secure the ne- cessary techniques of thought for making his own constructive interpreta- tion of the universe, in terms of the most abiding values. MEMBERS OF THE DEPARTMENT Lucas, Fcxther Ioseph Riley, Bruce PHYSICAL EDUCATIDN DEPARTMENT The athletic department is as yet comparatively in it's infancy, but has come a long way in achieving the aims that have been set up for the depart- ment. These include teaching a democratic philosophy of living through sports Objectives are to develop organic vigor and emotional health. To ac- com lish this articipation in both intramural or varsity sports should be a P P part of every studentls education, The YMCA and YWCA are doing a great deal to further opportunities in the department by offering their facilities for this purpose. We owe it to ourselves to see to it that we take some part in the program 'to make ourselves a better developed both physically and mentally. MEMBERS OF THE DEPARTMENT Altdoerifer, I.

SMITH T DEPARTMENT DF PDLITICAL SCIENCE Few matters indeed are of great interest importance to Americans generally, students or otherwise, than the improved functioning of our Ameri- can government, and the improvement of international relations. These subjects are especially, within the province of Political Science, which, there- fore, is a significant field of study for students in their capacity as citizens. As a major field of concentration, Political Science is very useful in preparation for a career in the Law, journalism, government civil service, including the federal foreign service, and teaching of Political Science. Most of the above careers now require study on a graduate level, however. MEMBERS OF THE DEPARTMENT Westenfielol, R. C. PSYCIIDLDGY DEPARTMENT With the encouragement and cooperation of the administration, the faculty, and the various schools and divisions of Youngstown College, our psychology department has prospered in many ways. The annual aggregate .enrollment in psychology classes has reached approximately 3,000. The faculty consists of twelve whole or part-time teachers. The psychology curriculum has been enlarged to include about thirty courses some of which are on a level equivalent to post graduate work. ' Our plans for future progress include, tentatively, a psychological lab- oratory, a clinic, and the formation of a local unit of the Ohio State Mental Hygiene Association.

DR. C. P. COULD DR. L. T. RICHARDSON DEPARTMENT DF IIISTDRY Only he who is acquainted with history can have any idea of the dynamics of society-what is growing, what is declining, what is significant, what is trite. History does for the observer of society what the film does for the movie audience. lt interpretes an otherwise meaningless scene. But the observer of society is also one of the actors. It is the objective of the Department of History at Youngstown College to enable its students to play their roles more intelligently than would be possible if they saw society only in the still frame of the present day. MEMBERS OF THE DEPARTMENT Eddy, George Slavin, Morris Smith, Elbert Gould, Clarence P. LANGUAGE DEPARTMENT There is a department of foreign language in Youngstown College, because as yet we do not have One World, and so, if we would know what others think who do not think in English, we must surmount the barrier of language. By overcoming this barrier, we not only gain free access to the realms that lie beyond, but also broaden the confines of our own personality Aiming at this high mark, rather than teaching young parrots to chatter in a foreign tongue, is our peculiar contribution to higher education. MEMBERS OF THE DEPARTMENT Dykema, Christine Iohnson-Vricelle, David Pfingsgraff, Mary Goodman, Martha Lauman, Otte Richardson, Leonard Grimshaw, Myrtle Morgan, Elizabeth Welton, Emilie LAW DEPARTMENT The law school was established in l908 with a class of nine.

SECRETARIAL STUDIES DEPARTMENT lt is the objective of the School of Business of Youngstown College to give the student a thorough and practical training which will prepare him for the type of work he wants to do. A business-like atmosphere prevails so that the student should be at home in the actual business office when he goes out to a position. When the student has completed his training, the School of Business makes every possible effort to see that the student is placed to his satis- faction in a position for which he is adequately prepared.

O. L. REID DEPARTMENT 0F SDCIDLDGY Sociology's primary object is to discover what happenes in our associa- tional life and why. Itys secondary is to use that understanding toward the predication and cooperative control of societal behavior. This study speci- fically concerns the structure of human society. Specialization in Sociology implies an interest in graduate study either in the direction of academic or applied social science pursuits and is there- fore, in the nature or pre-professional work. Study of the sociological courses, however, supplements any other departmental specialization by adding to the student's understanding of man and thereby increasing his efficiency in living with his fellows.
