The work was continued during the summer of 1925, and was put into the winter ses sion last year with an initial enroll ment of about 60. Now the department boasts of over 100 students. There are classes in designing and painting, in charcoal, water color, col ored chalk, and oil. The designs are applied to various lines; tetile, post ers, book covers, and purely decoratve work, and are entirely original %ith the student. The drawings are made from models of still life, of people, and from out of doors. A familiar sight on the campus is a young artist sitting on a camp stool sketching away, using one of the old buildings or a tree as his model. Art history, history of art. as its name implies, is part of the wor offered in this department with credit toward the bachelors degree as are the other courses. No additional cost is re quired as is the case in , most other schools. A great interest is taken by all mem bers of the "Sketch club" and already a certain "artist" atmosphere prevails over the upstairs of Flinn Hall where the classes are held. Any hour of the day and late into the night students can be seen over there painting. At the end of the scholastic year an exhibit is held in Flinn Hall where all the work of the year is shown. This exhibit is open to the public for a weeK. Exhibits are also made at the State fair and at th Junior art exhibit in the spring. Much talent has been discovered on the campus and under the skillful guidance of Miss Katherine Heyward, head of the Art department, and Miss Elizabeth White, assistant, great prog ress has been made. -U.s.c.
