For democracy, which can be saved from outside enemies by armed might, can only maintain itself against its inner enemies by the intellectual strength of the citizenry. Because the State of Illinois is grateful for the services of the veterans, but also because the welfare of the country, prob- ably for the next half century, depends upon what the veterans will do, the University of Illinois has gladly accepted the responsibility of helping you to prepare yourself for peace as efficiently as you pre- pared yourself for war. We offer to you every manner of help that we can devise to assist you in beginning or continuing your educa- tion. It was to accomplish this end that we have established the Division of Special Services for War Veterans. WHO ARE WAR VETERANS? The name, ''War Veteran," as we use it here, means any man or woman who served in the armed forces or auxiliary services of the United States. WHAT IS THE DIVISION OF SPECIAL SERVICES? The Division of Special Services, which has been established by the faculty and the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois, is the University's answer to the specific question, 'What can we do to be of greatest service to veterans who wish to come to the Uni- versity of Illinois?" It is a pioneering educational venture, break- ing traditional educational policies, and allowing for an educational freedom which will best serve the needs of individual students. [ 5 ] University of lliinois In the establishment of its Division of Special Services, the University has stated that the purpose and function of this Division shall be: 1. To study the needs of the returning veteran. 2. To inform him of all the various services of the University, and to advise him in matters of educational aims and adjustments. 3. To help him to find among existing curricula the one which will best satisfy his purpose, and to assist in making such adjustments therein as may be desired by him and accepted by the college or de- partment in question. 4. To administer the educational programs of those veterans whose special needs are not satisfied by existing curricula. The Division has been established, and is prepared to meet the purposes and carry out the functions stated above. This manual has been prepared to help you to make the greatest use of the Division. Administration Building y ^'' ""'''^. r^ Manual for War Veterans QUESTIONS CONFRONTING THE VETERAN The Veteran returning to civilian life is faced with the problem of choosing between two courses, to take a position in business or industry, or to resume, or begin, an educational program as a preparation for a place in civilian life. There are four questions which will confront the veteran in considering the effects of re- suming or beginning an educational program: 1. If I wish to go on with educational plans or begin an educational program, should I attend a University or some other type of training institution, or should I enroll in ''on-the-job" training? 2. If I decide to attend a University, what course should I take? Should I take one of the regular courses, or have I devised a plan of my own which I wish to follow but which does not fit the traditional cur- riculum? If the latter, can I secure such a course in a University? 3. What special provisions have been made to take care of me as a veteran ? 4. What are the University's agencies which are ready to assist me ? The veteran will find this manual useful in answering all of these questions. The answers to the first two questions will be found on pages 28-62, with the foreword, *'Why Go to the Univer- sity?", and in the list of the colleges and schools at the University of Illinois, and the Occupational Index on pages 52-62 which lists many of the courses of training which can be found at the Uni- versity of Illinois. The veteran should understand that the Division of Special Services can assist him to arrange the combination of subject matter and courses which will meet his needs. The answer to the third question will be found on pages 9-16 on which are published explanations of special educational aids to veterans which have been provided by the State of Illinois and by the Congress of the United States. The explanations of the state and federal statutes are given in some detail for ready reference by the veteran who wishes to question any special provision. The answer to the fourth question, concerning the agencies, which have been provided to assist veterans, will be found on pages 17-23. On these pages the veteran will find the answers to questions about admission, counseling, living conditions, health, and student- activity affairs, in the account of the agencies which are ordinarily referred to as agencies for student life and welfare. South Porch of the Woman s Building Manual for War Veterans VETERANS' SCHOLARSHIPS AT ILLINOIS There is given below the text of the State Statute concerning Mili- tary Scholarships at the University of Illinois, a statement of points to be especially noted in the Act, and an outline of the procedure to be followed by the candidate. THE STATE STATUTE An Act to amend an Act entitled, "An Act to establish and maintain a system of free schools," approved and in force June 12, 1909, as amended June 28, 1919 and May 27, 1943. Section 173a. Any person who served in the army, navy, or marine corps of United States, not including members of the Students' Army Training Corps during World War I, or at any time between September 16, 1940 and the termination of World War II, who, at the time of entering upon such service, was a resident of this state, and who has been honorably discharged from such service, and who shall possess all necessary entrance requirements shall, upon application and proper proof, be awarded a Uni- versity of Illinois scholarship. Any person who served as above stated, and who, at the time of enter- ing upon such service, was a student at the University of Illinois, and who was honorably discharged from such service, shall, upon application and proper proof, be entitled to finish and complete his course of study at the University of Illinois without tuition and matriculation charges, but such person shall not be entitled to more than four years of gratuitous instruction. The holder of any university scholarship or free tuition privileges, under the provisions of this section, shall be entitled to all the privileges and shall be subject to all the conditions set forth in Sections 174 and 175 of this Act. The provisions of Sections 166a and 173a, however, shall not apply to persons who were convicted by court martial of disobedience of orders, where such disobedience consisted of the refusal to perform military service on the ground of alleged religious or conscientious objections against war. Sections 174 and 175 of the original Act (the General School Law), referred to in the third paragraph of Section 173a, are as follows: Sec. 174. Any University scholarship issued under the provisions of this Act shall exempt the holder from the payment of tuition, or any matricula- tion, term or incidental fee whatsoever, except for the purchase of lab- oratory supplies and similar fees for supplies and materials: Provided, however, that such student shall be subject to all examinations, rules and re- quirements of the board of trustees and faculty, except as herein directed: And, provided, further, that this Act shall not be construed to prohibit the board of trustees from granting other scholarships. Sec. 175. Any student holding a University scholarship, who shall make it appear to the satisfaction of the president of the University that he re- 1 University of Illinois quires leave of absence for the purpose of earning funds to defray his expenses while in attendance, may be granted such leave of absence, and may be allowed a period not to exceed six years to complete his course at the University. Points to Be Noted in the Act: The attention of candidates is called to the following points in the Act quoted above : QUALIFICATIONS OF CANDIDATES To be eligible for appointment to a Military Scholarship, a candi- date must establish the following facts: (1) That he served in the army, the navy, or the marine corps of the United States, exclusive of the Students' Army Training Corps during World War I, or any time between September 16, 1940, and the termination of World War 11.

(5) That he possesses "all necessary entrance requirements;" i.e., that he can meet in full the requirements set forth in the Annual Register of the University for matriculation in the college or cur- riculum of the University which he proposes to enter. These require- ments include graduation from an accredited high school, with fifteen units in acceptable subjects, including certain prescribed subjects. A candidate who is not a graduate of an accredited high school may meet the requirements by passing entrance examinations.

REGISTRAR Permits to Enter. Permits to enter the University will be granted by the Registrar of the University, on the basis of previous work at the college level, completion of high school, the passing of examinations, or a demonstration of ability to carry college work. Advanced Standing and Undergraduate Credit for Service and for Education in the Armed Forces. Undergraduate credit toward a degree may be obtained for work successfully com- pleted in other schools or colleges. The University, under general provisions administered by the Committee on Admissions from Higher Institutions, will recognize for college credit certain train- ing and experience in the Armed Forces. Credit in military science and physical education and hygiene will be approved when a person, honorably discharged, presents evidence that he has completed the basic training program in the Army, Navy, Marine Corps, or Coast Guard. The Committee will recognize for credit correspondence courses of college grade, the general educational development ex- aminations and the examinations in special fields prepared by the United States Armed Forces Institute. The College Training Pro- grams of the Army, Navy, and Marine Corps will be accepted as credit transferred from the institution where it was taken. The Committee will consider for credit work done in Army, Navy, Marine Corps, and Coast Guard Specialized and Technical Schools where its equivalence in terms of college courses is established by proficiency examinations, or where such courses have been recom- mended for college credit in the Guide to the Evaluation of Edu- cational Experience in the Armed Services published by the American Council on Education. Documents which may be trans- mitted to the Registrar for credit earned in service are WDAGO Form 100 and NAVPERS Form 553. Choice of Curriculum or Courses. As a veteran, on entering the University, you will have the privilege of applying for admis- sion to any college or curriculum, unless your course of study has been fixed by the agency through which you were entered. For Manual for War Veterans 1 7 those of you whose educational needs can best be met by programs of study which can not be fitted to the requirements for gradua- tion of the permanently established colleges and schools, the Di- rector of the Division of Special Services for War Veterans will arrange individual curricula, quantitatively and qualitatively equiva- lent to the established curricula, upon the completion of which you will be granted the degree of Bachelor of Science in the Division of Special Services for War Veterans. Registration in the Division of Special Services for War Veterans. You may register in, and come under the direct supervision of, the Division under certain definite conditions: 1. If you so elect at the time of your first registration and are accepted by the Division. 2. When you are referred to the Division by any school or college, and are accepted. 3. When you voluntarily transfer to the Division from any school or college, according to the usual University procedure. Correspondence Pertaining to Admission and Scholarships. All matters pertaining to admission to the University of Illinois are handled by the Of^ce of the Registrar. All communications in regard to entrance requirements, high school credits, college and university transfers, examinations in high school subjects, scholarships, general inquiries about the University, and University catalogs and special bulletins should be addressed to: Mr. George P. Tuttle, Registrar, Room 100-A, Administration Building, Urbana, Illinois; they will be given immediate attention. DIVISION OF SPECIAL SERVICES FOR WAR VETERANS Needs of Veterans. The Division will make every effort to learn the needs of the returning veterans and to meet such needs as can be satisfied through the resources of the University. Two primary needs will be for information and guidance. Information. Every veteran in the University, or planning to attend the University, is invited to consult with the Division on his problems. If the Division can not solve the problem, the Director will ascertain for him the proper facility in the University or out- side the University which can give him the most ef^cient help and, 1 8 University of Illinois with his consent, refer him to a University office or other agency. This aid will be furnished before, during, and after the time the veteran is an enrolled student. Guidance, Educational. The Division is prepared to assist the student in finding among the existing courses of study the one which will best satisfy his needs and his desires. Through the Divi- sion, he may obtain help in making such adjustments in the curricu- lum which he chooses as may be desired by him and accepted by the school or college from which he plans to graduate. The Division will also w^ork out complete curricula for those whose special needs are not met by programs now offered. A few of the University and other agencies which are at his service are listed here: Procedures Under the G.I. Bill The purpose of this section is to acquaint you with the functioning of the G.I. Bill. Room 258, Administration West, is the University office that proc- esses all your records pertaining to the G.I. Bill, Public Law 346, and the Rehabilitation Act, Public Law 16. Any questions you may have concerning these laws will be answered in Room 258, Administration West. I£ You Have a Certificate of Eligibility If you have a Certificate of Eligibility and Entitlement (Veterans Administration Form 1953), take it to Room 258, Administration West. There you will receive a 4 x 6 white card, which you may take to the Dean of Men's Office, Room 152, Administration West. There you will receive your order book for purchasing books and supplies. In- formation on the use of the order book follows. Subsistence Payments Under the G.I. Bill Your subsistence payments will generally begin within four to six weeks after you turn in your Certificate of Eligibility, or the beginning of the semester, whichever is the later date. What Happens to Your Certificate of Eligibility Your Certificate is endorsed and returned to the Veterans Admin- istration. After your Certificate is received and processed by the Veter- ans Administration, an award is set aside for you. You are notified of this award on Veterans Administration Adjudication Form 506. In this notice you will be instructed to furnish proof of your marriage or dependents, if you claim subsistence for either. Proof of Marriage and Dependents Forms and information necessary to establish your marriage or dependents may be obtained in Room 258, Administration West. Manual for War Veterans 1 9 If You Do Not Have a Certificate of Eligibility If you do not have a Certificate of Eligibility and Entitlement at the time of registration, and you qualify for benefits under the G.L Bill, then you may request deferment of tuition and fees in Room 258, Administration West, until such time as you receive your Certificate. Probation and Dropping You remain in good standing with the Veterans Administration so long as you are in good standing with the University. Withdrawing If you are in training under either Public Law 346 or Public Law 16 and you withdraw from the University, then you must: 1. Turn in all your books and supplies to the Veterans Administra- tion, Room 308, Administration East. 2. Write a letter to the Veterans Administration explaining: a. Your reasons for withdrawal. b. Whether or not you plan to use your benefits at a future date. If you know when and where you want to use them, then so indicate in your letter. How Books and Supplies Are Provided to Veterans University registrants enrolled under the auspices of Public Law 16 and Public Law 346 are provided with the books, equipment, and supplies which are required in their courses. In conformity with the G.I. Bill, only required articles are provided. Articles which are helpful to students but which the average student customarily does not buy can not be provided. When a veteran deposits his Certificate of Eligibility and Entitle- ment in Room 258, Administration West, he is eligible to be issued an Order Book by the Dean of Men's Office, where the veteran's account is maintained. Upon being informed in class by his instructor as to what articles are required, the veteran lists the articles, in triplicate, in his Order Book and then secures the signature of the instructor and the representative of the Dean of Men for the entry. One of the three copies prepared by the veteran is withdrawn from the book and filed with the veteran's account. The veteran then can go to a store of his own choice, secure the articles, and "pay" the store by presenting the two remaining copies in his Order Book. A veteran who enrolls in the University without presenting his Certificate may either charge his books, in a personal account, or pay cash for them and secure an itemized receipt. When the veteran later files his Certificate in Room 258, Administration West, he is issued his Order Book. He can then take care of his charge account by presenting to the bookstore concerned properly signed Order Book entries for the 20 University of Illinois items he charged, thus removing the charge. If the veteran paid cash for his books, he may secure a reimbursement from the Dean of Men by presenting properly signed Order Book sHps and his itemized cash receipt. THE DEAN OF STUDENTS The University of Illinois recognizes its responsibility for the entire life of the student while he is living in the academic community, with the objective of providing the most favorable conditions sur- rounding his University life. The Dean of Students is the unifying and coordinating ofificer in charge of all agencies interested in the student's physical well-being, both in how he lives, and where he lives, in social and recreational activities, and in the cultural level of all phases of his life outside the classroom. The various units of this division of student life and welfare handle most of the indi- vidual cases within their purview, but the Dean of Students, Fred H. Turner, 152 Administration Building, is also available for indi- vidual conferences. DEAN OF MEN DEAN OF WOMEN Both of these officers, and their assistants, will gladly help you, when you arrive, in adjusting yourselves to the University, and, afterwards, in giving counsel and guidance. They can help you with your personal problems, with financial and health problems, with housing problems, and with problems connected with those student activities which we call extracurricular. The Dean of Women is Mrs. Leah Trelease, 100 Woman's Building, and the Dean of Men is Mr. E. E. Stafford, 152 Administration Building. McKiniey Hospital Manual for War Veterans 21 DIRECTOR OF STUDENT EMPLOYMENT The student desiring employment should consult with G. W. Peck, Assistant Dean of Men and Director of Student Employment, at 104 Administration Building. The services of the office are available twelve months of the year, and written inquiries or personal calls are welcome at any time. Student veterans' wives may also consult with Mr. Peck concerning employment. THE DIVISION OF STUDENT HOUSING All applications for housing are filed with this Division located in 108 mini Hall at the corner of Wright and John streets in Cham- paign, Telephone No. 6-2594. Rental of rooms by mail is not recommended. The Housing Division, under the direction of Mr. S. Earl Thompson, has man and woman staff members on duty throughout the year. A limited number of housing facilities for married students have been sup- plied through the cooperation of Federal Public Housing Authority. The University operates both permanent and temporary housing units for the use of single students. Accommodations in approved student homes are listed by the Housing Division. These facilities are operated by local house holders in Champaign-Urbana. Some of these units offer both room and board, and some rooming accommodations only. Any questions concerning contracts or rental procedures should be re- ferred to the Housing Division before rental agreements are signed. THE UNIVERSITY HEALTH SERVICE STATION AND McKINLEY HOSPITAL The University Health Service is actively engaged in establishing and maintaining the physical and mental health of all students. Its functions are primarily educational and preventive, but it can and will give you advice, emergency treatment, and assistance in finding competent specialists and other practitioners of medicine. All students not previously examined at the Health Service Station must take a medical examination. If taken at a regularly appointed time before registration, it will be given without charge. Such an 22 University of Illinois examination provides a sound basis for advice not only on health but also, to some extent, on the amount and kind of academic work the student is capable of doing. McKinley Hospital serves both the students and the faculty. Student veterans' wives may participate in the hospitaHzation and medical service plan. THE PERSONNEL BUREAU As one of its services to students throughout the State, the Uni- versity of Illinois offers through its Personnel Bureau, a complete aptitude testing and counseling service. The Personnel Bureau's staff of experienced counselors can help you discover the answers to questions about your general fitness for specific courses of study; the kind of work in which you have a good chance to succeed ; the measures you can take to increase your ef^ciency as a student — in reading rapidly and understandingly, in increasing your powers of concentration. It can help you, also, in developing a personality that will be an asset to you in school and in the years that follow your work here. Since an objective discussion of your abilities, interests, educa- tional background, and personal situation can be of great help to you in making your decision as to your course of study, it is highly desir- able that if possible you avail yourself of these services, preferably some time previous to your actual registration in the University. Special counseling is available for married veterans in 311 Admin- istration Building. COLLEGES, SCHOOLS, AND DEPARTMENTS In the of^ce of every college, department, division, or school you will find in the deans, directors, department heads, or their assist- ants, men and women who by constant contact with educational and other problems have the experience and the wisdom to advise you on educational problems and on the rules and regulations under which you must work if your work here is to be a complete success. Many problems of educational adjustment can be solved with the help of the instructors in the courses in which you are registered. In your success in school, their labors are justified.

It is made up of twenty-five student members, ten ex-officio, and fifteen elected members from the undergraduate student body. Its purpose is to promote the general welfare of the student body and to exercise powers of student government granted it. The Student Senate has legislative power coordinate with that of the Committee on Student Affairs. The Student Senate is as- sisted by three faculty advisers. Three of its important committees are the Audit Committee, the Elections Committee, and the Student Council, of six senior members, four with voting privileges, which cooperates with the Senate Committee on Student Affairs in the administration of student matters. The Senate appoints the student members of various boards of control. COMMITTEE ON STUDENT AFFAIRS The University Senate Committee on Student Affairs is composed of the Dean of Men, Dean of Women, and seven other faculty mem- bers ; a cooperating committee from the Student Senate meets with the faculty committee at regular intervals. In conjunction with the Student Senate, the Committee on Student Affairs has jurisdiction over student organizations and activities, social functions, the cal- endar of activity events, recognition of honorary and professional organizations, the regulations relative to the operation of motor vehicles by undergraduates, is advisory to the Dean of Students in all matters pertaining to student activities, and in various other ways advises, directs, and cooperates with students in extracurricu- lar, extra-academic, and welfare policies. The Chairman is Prof. Sleeter Bull, 552 Old Agriculture Build- ing; the Secretary is Dean E. E. Stafford, 152 Administration Building; activity finances are supervised by Assistant Dean V. J. Hampton, 152 Administration Building. VETERANS' ORGANIZATIONS Veterans, male and female, are eligible for membership in Ameri- can Legion Post 909, University of Illinois; American Veterans Manual for War Veterans 25 Committee (AVC) ; and the American Veterans of World War II (AMVETS). VARIETY OF ACTIVITIES The question is sometimes raised as to the educational values of extracurricular activities. The student who attends a university should do more than attend his classes and prepare for them. He should have some part in the University life which is around him. On the other hand, studies come first and he should not attend the University merely for the sake of the activities that go with it. The variety of extracurricular activities is so great in the Uni- versity of Illinois, that any student may find a field of activity ac- cording to his interests and available time. Excepting rowing and sailing, practically every branch of athletics is available for men and women. Publications attract many; Men's and Women's Leagues, Military, Y.M.C.A., Y.W.C.A., Student Alumni Association, bands, glee clubs, chorus, orchestra. Concert and Entertainment Board, Student Senate, class organizations, and a multitude of societies, clubs, and committees provide opportunities.

In addition to special services for students, there are courses in religion for which Uni- versity credit may be earned, programs of projects, dramatics, chorus, orchestra, deputations, boys' work, and opportunities for administrative training. Dr. Katharine W. Taylor of the Y.M.C.A. is sponsoring courses for married veterans and fostering coopera- tive play groups for veterans' children. OTHER AIDS The Division will assist you in selecting those off-campus agencies, local, state, or national, which can best serve your needs in securing the rights and privileges which are yours by law, state or national, and the benefits offered to you by private organizations. A Service Officer is located at Room 249, Armory Building, to give every possible assistance to veterans and their dependents in filing claims for all benefits to which they are entitled, such as education and training under the G.I. Bill, pension and treatment for disabilities in service, etc. The Service Officer is charged by the State of Illi- nois to advise and assist veterans on problems of insurance, em- ployment, loans, and to aid in the application for all Federal, State and Community benefits that may accrue to veterans. 28 University of Illinois WHY GO TO THE UNIVERSITY? FOREWORD The man or woman who comes to the University usually has in mind the acquisition of an education which will cultivate his in- telligence, increase his knowledge, and develop his social abilities or qualities, to the end that he may be a better man and a better citizen. Along with this kind of education, he frequently wishes to prepare himself in a specific fashion for the work for which he feels he is fitted. The University is not a trade school, but it can and does prepare for definite careers. It gives an opportunity to those with a reasonable degree of intellectual ability, ambition, and determination to fit themselves for the kind of life in which they can best serve themselves and mankind. The following pages are in- tended to show something of the nature of the kinds of education which may be begun or completed at the University, in the different schools and colleges, in Urbana-Champaign and in Chicago. The index of occupations which follows, although not complete, should help many who have ambitions to do specific kinds of work to find the curriculum in which they may best prepare themselves. The Library Manual for War Veterans 29 THE COLLEGES AND SCHOOLS IN URBANA-CHAMPAIGN COLLEGE OF AGRICULTURE^ The College of Agriculture offers curricula in agriculture, floricul- ture, and home economics, leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science. Its purpose is to prepare men and women for successful careers in agriculture and home economics; and to prepare the student for the practical affairs of life. The chief fields of study open to the student who registers in this college are listed below.

Pre-Theological Program (Prepares students intending to enter the rural ministry.) Pre-Veterinary Program (Prepares students for work in Veterinary School.) COLLEGE OF COMMERCE AND BUSINESS ADMINISTRATION Through knowledge of modern business practices and the funda- mental principles on which economic systems operate, the College of Commerce and Business Administration seeks to develop in stu- dents the intellectual powers necessary for administrative careers. For this purpose it offers a unified program of basic studies for underclassmen and a variety of fields of concentration for upper- classmen. Though the factual contents of many of the courses are directly useful in specific vocations — accounting, banking, selling, teaching, etc. — students should expect to serve an apprenticeship in the fields they enter after graduation from this college, if they wish to prepare themselves for higher positions. While concentrat- ing in a special field, they are encouraged to elect courses offered in other colleges and schools of the University and to secure as liberal an education as possible, to avoid the narrowing effects of early specialization. The program of the first two years, the Lozver Division, is or- ganized about a nucleus of courses in accountancy and economics, 32 University of Illinois mathematics and science, language and literature, rhetoric and speech. While it is designed primarily as preparation for the third and fourth years of the curriculum, it affords a well-balanced com- bination of studies to those who are in college for only two years of preparation for work in the business world. Students who have completed this two-year program with a satisfactory scholastic rec- ord are qualified for admission to the Upper Division of the Col- lege of Commerce and Business Administration or for admission to the College of Education (page 182), or the College of Law (page 202), or the School of Journalism (page 206). (Students transferring to other colleges after completing only the two-year program of the Lower Division receive their degrees not from the College of Commerce and Business Administration, but from the college to which they transfer, on completing the requirements of that college. For degrees from both the College of Commerce and Business Administration and the College of Law, see the field of Commerce and Law, page 143.) The program of the next two years, the Upper Division, pro- vides nine fields of concentration, each student choosing the field he prefers: (1) accountancy, (2) banking and finance, (3) commerce and law, (4) commercial teaching, (5) economics, (6) industrial administration, (7) management, (8) marketing, (9) public af- fairs. These fields overlap to some extent in that they deal with the common problems of living and working in a business environ- ment, and they are distinguished chiefly by their separate points of view and by the ultimate objectives of those who elect these fields. The program leads to the degree of Bachelor of Science in the field chosen. DEPARTMENTS AND CURRICULA Accountancy Prepares for work in industrial or public accounting, for work in manu- facturing concerns, banks, railroads, public utilities, wholesale houses, in- surance companies, airline companies, department stores, governmental bureaus, and firms of certified public accountants. Banking and Finance Prepares for work in banking and finance, and for work with invest- ment houses, stock exchanges, and security departments. Commerce and Law Prepares for entrance into the College of Law (those interested in the specialized fields of corporation law, tax law, labor law, and the adminis- tration of estates can be prepared here) ; after three years in the college Manual for War Veferans 33 and one year in law, the student has a basic training which fits him for a career in the general field of business administration. A background in economics and accounting is excellent for law. In two additional years (six in all) the student can earn his law degree. Commercial Teaching Prepares high-school teachers of bookkeeping, economics, shorthand, typing, business law, and related subjects. Economics Students in this field of concentration might prepare themselves for teaching in colleges, governmental positions, foreign trade, general business, or research work. Students who contemplate graduate work in economics should study in this field. Industrial Administration Prepares for positions in industry, general and specific; and for po- sitions of like nature in the general field of business. The purpose of the curriculum is to develop individual capability. Management This field of concentration provides a broad foundation of subjects in commerce for the student who will find his niche after a fairly broad view of business as a whole. Marketing Helps prepare for: Advertising, agency, newspaper, or private com- pany; Credit Management, mercantile or retail; Market Research, business; College of Commerce and Business Administration € 34 University of Illinois Retailing, independent proprietors, chain store managers, department stores; Selling, salesmanship and sales management; Wholesaling. Personnel Administration Prepares for employment in personnel departments of business and industry. Public Affairs Prepares students for these and other branches of the public service: Trade and civic secretarial service; Management of a public industry; Management of a governmental unit; Service in tax department of gov- ernmental units; Service in banking departments of governmental units; Service in insurance departments of governmental units; Service in other governmental departments; Governmental foreign service; Social service. COLLEGE OF EDUCATION Students graduating from the College of Iklucation are prepared to teach in the public schools in the State and are qualified to teach in almost all of the states of the Union. The only curriculum in which freshmen are admitted directly to the College of Education is "Industrial Education." The College prepares: Teachers of Industrial Education The curriculum in industrial education is open to freshmen. It prepares students to teach woodworking, printing, general engineering drawing, ma- chine shop, electricity, and allied subjects, in high schools, technical schools, and training departments in industry. The guidance courses prepare for personnel work in business and industry. Teachers for high schools Teachers for elementary schools Teachers for training programs in industry Junior college teachers Principals, supervisors, and superintendents of schools, and other school administrative or supervisory officers College or university teachers of education Research workers in education COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING The College of Engineering provides numerous curricula which are fundamentally scientific and technological in character, but in which cultural subjects are interwoven to form a broad and well integrated educational program, the necessary basis for future pro- fessional practice. The successful engineer must possess imagina- tion, curiosity, reasoning power, ingenuity, and integrity. He must be trained in (a) methods of expression, such as drawing, mathe- Manual for War Veterans 35 matics, and language; (b) analysis and synthesis; (c) visualization; and (d) acquisition of factual information pertaining to engineering and its allied fields. The work of the engineer may be classified, broadly, as research and development, design, construction or manufacture, distribution and application, maintenance, and management and operation. The performance of these functions not only requires scientific and technical training, but also a sound knowledge of economics and legal principles, together with a sympathetic understanding of the complex human relations involved in modern society. Management and organization, into which a large percentage of engineers natu- rally go, emphasize the importance of these latter factors in the engineer's training. In addition to these highly professional functions, there are many strictly technical or sub-professional occupations within the boundaries of engineering practice for which an engineering educa- tion of some extent is an indispensable requirement. These occupa- tions range between the mechanical trades, or crafts, and the strictly professional engineering fields of endeavor. Examples are: Survey- ing, drafting, industrial or engineering contracting, testing and in- spection, laboratory control work, technical writing, and numerous other more or less technical positions closely allied to professional engineering practice. The curricula of the College of Engineering, with their options and special courses, provide a sound educational basis for employment in such occupations. DEPARTMENTS AND CURRICULA Aeronautical Engineering Aeronautical Engineering deals with the design, construction, and operation of all types of aircraft, their power plants and accessory equip- ment. It also gives consideration to the design, construction, and operation of airfields and their appurtenances. Because of the wide range of engi- neering science involved, the training of aeronautical engineers includes much of the older branches of engineering, particularly in structural and mechanical engineering. Hitherto, aeronautic training in the College of Engineering has been largely a matter of the election of individual courses by students in these two fields. Now interested students may enroll in the Common Freshman Program under the designation of Aeronautical Engi- neering preparatory to entering the fully-prescribed curriculum at the beginning of the sophomore year. ,; m '' ' :** i^-' Above, Noyes Laboratory of Chemistry Below, Old Agriculture Building Manual for War Veterans 37 Agricultural Engineering Curricula 1. A four-year course leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Agricultural Engineering. Options: (1) Power and Machinery and (2) Construction and Soil Conservation. 2. A five-year combined course in Engineering and Agriculture leading to the degrees of Bachelor of Science in Agriculture and in Agricultural Engineering. Training Agricultural engineering training is based upon fundamental engineer- ing, with the addition of basic courses in soils, plant science, and agricul- tural economics, and a moderate specialization in four principal divisions: (1) farm power and machinery, (2) rural electrification, (3) farm struc- tures, and (4) soil and water conservation. Graduates are trained for service as sales engineers, designers, and research workers in these four lines of work. Trade associations, retail businesses, manufacturers, colleges of agriculture, the U. S. Department of Agriculture, and professional farm managers employ agricultural engineers for their ability to apply engineer- ing principles to agricultural production. Ceramic Engineering Ceramic Engineering deals with a wide variety of industries in which the raw materials are largely non-metallic minerals and generally silicates. The products include brick, tile and other structural units made from clay; pottery of all types from common earthenware to the finest porcelain; chemical ware; plumbing fixtures; electrical insulators; fire brick and other refractory materials used in construction of furnaces for high tempera- tures; glass products of all sorts; enameled metal articles such as kitchen- ware, stoves, refrigerators, tanks, and signs; abrasives for grinding and polishing metals and other materials; cements of great variety; and a wide range of other products. Civil Engineering Graduates of the Department of Civil Engineering are prepared to work on promotion, design, construction, operation, maintenance, sales, or re- search in any of the following branches of the field of civil engineering — Construction, Hydraulic, Municipal, Sanitary, Structural, and Transporta- tion. In these fields the graduate may work as draftsman, detailer, surveyor, inspector, superintendent, designing engineer, testing engineer, estimator, specification writer, operating engineer, works manager, maintenance engi- neer, sales engineer, research engineer, etc. (a) In Construction Engineering the civil engineering graduate may work on the construction of highways, buildings, bridges, dams, airports, water works, sewage disposal systems, river and harbor improvements, and on any and all kinds of construction projects.

Manual for War Veterans 39 Engineering Physics The Department of Physics offers a curriculum in engineering physics, designed to give students the broad and thorough training in fundamental physics and mathematics which is demanded by the increasing complexity of modern engineering practice. In general, graduates in Engineering Physics are prepared for research and development, production and pro- duction control, or sales and sales management in numerous industries; and for post-graduate work in physics or engineering; or for high school teach- ing if the educational requirement has been fulfilled by the choice of proper electives. General Engineering The General Engineering curriculum gives the student a broad foun- dation in engineering by combining the basic technical courses of the several fields of engineering into a well integrated program to which is added a series of courses in Economics, Engineering Law, Personnel Problems, and the like. A liberal group of electives rounds out the curriculum. The work in engineering design may be taken in either the structural or machine design fields. This curriculum prepares the student to enter the various fields of en- gineering in the usual sub-professional and professional positions connected with the promotion, development, design, construction, and operation of engineering and industrial works. It also gives the young engineer a sound foundation for a life work in any of a large number of closely allied fields of employment which are of equal importance and interest in engineering practice with those of a highly technical nature. Mechanical Engineering The curriculum in Mechanical Engineering prepares engineering stu- dents for work wherever machines or their products are designed, made, used, tested, maintained, or sold. The graduate engineer requires for ad- vancement not only a thorough basic engineering training but also ability to deal with people, to express his ideas well, and some degree of executive talent. In his senior year the student may elect specialized training, basic in principle but applied to some particular field or industry. Major fields in which specialized work is offered are: Aeronautics; industrial production; heating, ventilating, and air conditioning; refrigeration; railway; petro- leum production; internal combustion engines; etc. Metallurgical Engineering Metallurgy is divided into three main divisions — chemical, mechanical, and physical. Chemical Metallurgy includes the metallurgical processes involv- ing chemical change and embraces methods of production and refining of metals from their ores. Mechanical Metallurgy includes all the processes of working and shaping metals — processes which do not involve chemical changes but which adapt metals as to size and form, such as rolling, forging, draw- ing, spinning, casting, etc. 40 University of Illinois Physical Metallurgy deals with the nature, structure, and physical and mechanical properties of metals and alloys. It includes: metal- lography; testing of metals and alloys; heat treatment of metals and alloys and the physical changes produced thereby. Physical metallurgy is the most recently developed field of metallurgy and has assumed a position of great importance in manufacturing industries. Practically all manufacturing industries have a need for physical metallurgists. The curriculum in Metallurgical Engineering has been designed to in- clude the engineering fundamentals of all three divisions of metallurgical engineering. Some of the positions open for graduates are: Metallographer; Metal- lurgical tester in control laboratories; Heat treater; Open-hearth and blast- furnace metallurgist in steel mills; Open-hearth observer; Cast iron and malleable iron foundry metallurgist; Metallurgist in cast steel foundries; Development and research metallurgist; Tool and die-steel heat treater; Rolling mill and forge plant metallurgist; Sales engineer for metal prod- ucts; Non-ferrous (brass, bronze, aluminum, magnesium, etc.) foundry operator. Mining Engineering The Mining Engineering curriculum aims to instruct the student thor- oughly in the fundamental problems dealing with the extraction of mineral substances from the earth, and their preparation in the form of fuels, metals, and rock products for use in our modern civilization. There are four major fields from which the graduate mining engineer may choose liis life work. These are coal mining, metal-bearing ore mining (lead, zinc, copper, etc.), non-metallic ore mining (fluorspar, sulphur, gypsum, etc.), and mining geology. COLLEGE OF FINE AND APPLIED ARTS AND SCHOOL OF MUSIC The College of Fine and Applied Arts including the School of Music provides professional training in architecture, art, landscape architecture, and music.

Radio Curriculum Prepares for: All forms of radio work except music and dramatics — radio reporting, broadcasting, script and continuity writing, station man- agement, program production, and radio advertising. COLLEGE OF LAW Under the regular admission requirements of this College, the stu- dent has the choice of two programs: (1) He may pursue his col- lege course for at least three years and then enter the three-year curriculum in law; or (2) he may pursue his college course for a minimum of two years and then enter the four-year curriculum in law. For either program his scholastic average must meet a stated minimum. A veteran of World War II may count service credits acceptable to the University towards these quantity requirements. It is also possible for a veteran who has spent at least four semes- ters in residence in an approved college, who has earned a B aver- age or better, and who has completed twelve months of service in the Armed Forces to enter the three-year law curriculum with less than senior standing; if his average is slightly below B but he meets Manual for War Veterans 43 the other requirements, the veteran may submit to an examination on his general educational background, and, if he passes that exam- ination, he may be admitted to the three-year law curriculum. A student in either the three- or the four-year program may specialize to some extent. For example, he may emphasize one of the following fields: Public Law, Property Law, or Commercial Law. The student who has no such particular interest may obtain an adequate preparation for general practice by electing the more fundamental courses in all fields. The College of Law prepares students for: General practice. Specialized practice; e.g., taxation, insurance, patent law, probate law, etc. Government service; e.g., with the Department of Justice, the Treasury Department, and other agencies of government. Business. Many executives in business today are lawyers. Lawyers are frequently in charge of personnel relations for industry. Labor. Lawyers may prepare themselves in the field of labor law and personnel relations. Politics. A substantial number of persons in politics are trained in law. International law. Foreign diplomatic service. Law is an excellent background. Teaching of law. COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS AND SCIENCES The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences provides a liberal educa- tion in the humanities and sciences, specialized curricula in chemical engineering, chemistry, and home economics, and courses prepara- tory to the study of dentistry, education, journalism, law, library science, medicine, occupational therapy, social work, and theology. DEPARTMENTS AND CURRICULA Curriculum in Chemical Engineering and Curriculum in Chemistry These curricula of¥er more highly specialized training in chemistry than may be obtained in the General Curriculum with a major in chemistry. They prepare students for research, control, plant design, technical sales, teaching, and for work in chemical and allied industries. Division of General Studies The purpose of the Division of General Studies is to provide a basic education which will help the student to become a culturally well-rounded 44 University of Illinois man or woman, to assist him in determining a field of interest, or to pre- pare him for later work in education, journalism, or law. General Curriculum In the General Curriculum, the student is given a broad general educa- tion plus a considerable degree of concentrated work in one subject, at least, known as the major. The major may be one of the following: Bacteriology Botany Chemistry Classics Economics English Entomology Work may also be taken in Astronomy and Social Welfare Administration. In general, students specializing in these subjects plan to teach, to prepare for research in the graduate school, or, in some of them, some- times after further study, to follow specific occupations. N.B. Although many of the departments which offer these subjects make no claim to prepare directly for the listed occupations or professions, all offer training useful or essential for those planning to enter them.

DIVISION OF SPECIAL SERVICES FOR WAR VETERANS The Division of Special Services for War Veterans will plan pro- grams for veterans whose needs are not met by the curricula in other divisions, schools, or colleges of the University. COLLEGE OF VETERINARY MEDICINE AND SURGERY On June 5, 1944, the Board of Trustees of the University of Illinois directed President Willard to proceed to organize a curriculum and budgetary needs of a College of Veterinary Medicine and Surgery. It is expected that the construction of buildings necessary for the establishment of this College on the Urbana campus will be com- menced as soon as the war emergency will allow. In the meantime, students may enroll in the pre-veterinary program in the College of Manual for War Veferans 47 Agriculture which prepares students for possible entrance to veter- inary colleges at other institutions. DIVISION OF UNIVERSITY EXTENSION Under an Act of the General Assembly, approved July 17, 1945, State Military Scholarships were approved for veterans of World Altgeld Hall — The College of Law 48 University of Illinois War I and World War II, who, at the time of enHstment, were residents of Illinois or students in the University of Illinois (see page 9). Any veteran of World War I or World War II who qualifies may apply to the Registrar of the University for a military schol- arship. When applying for correspondence courses, the veteran makes a notation that he holds such a military scholarship, and he is not billed for any tuition. The Servicemen's Readjustment Act of 1944 as amended per- mits all qualified veterans of World War II to take correspondence instruction, with costs paid by the Veterans Administration. Address inquiries to Robert Bell Browne, Director, at 118a mini Hall, Champaign, Illinois. The Colleges of Medicine, Dentistry, and Pharmacy Are in the Heart of Chicago's Great Medical Center "^ 5- '"•' ^'K !« ■;;!.iiiiMHHii « ddl «i* ^*'* *** T Ml Manual for War Veterans 49 THE COLLEGES IN CHICAGO The University of Illinois has the Colleges of Dentistry, Medicine, and Pharmacy in Chicago, at the corner of Polk and Wood Streets on the near west side. Veterans may secure information at the offices of the deans or at the office of the Recorder and Examiner, Room 111, 1853 West Polk Street. The West Side Professional Y.M.C.A., 1804 West Congress Street, is usually able to provide housing for out-of-town students. COLLEGE OF DENTISTRY The College of Dentistry offers a four-year curriculum leading to the degree of Doctor of Dental Surgery. Admission requirements include four years in an accredited high school and two years in an approved college of liberal arts and sciences, comprising not less than sixty semester hours that include prescribed subjects indicated in the Annual Circular. Only applicants having grade averages of 3.0 or better are considered for admission. The College of Dentistry prepares students for general practice, teaching, and research. For the past fifteen years the dentist-to- population ratio has been falling. This makes dentistry one of the most attractive fields open to men with sufficient background and the necessary standards of scholarship. Graduate courses leading to the degree of Master of Science are offered to graduate dentists who meet the admission require- ments of the University Graduate School in Orthodontia, Applied Materia Medica and Therapeutics, and Histology. Postgraduate or refresher courses are offered to graduate dentists in all departments of the College of Dentistry. A com- prehensive and intensive general refresher course in the entire field of dentistry to be given in a period of three months will be made available to returning veterans if there is sufficient demand for such a course. COLLEGE OF MEDICINE Minimum requirements for admission to the College of Medicine are 88 semester hours of credit (not including physical education, military science, or hygiene) as described in the Annual Register. 50 University of Illinois A faculty committee on admissions considers the personal and pro- fessional attributes of all candidates and selects those who give the greatest promise of success in the medical profession and their medical studies. The course is 36 months in length, at present completed in the elapsed time of 3 years but in less pressing times, in 4 years. Grad- uates must also spend an additional 12 months interning in ap- proved hospitals. The veteran desiring to begin the study of medicine should contact the Examiner's Office to have his credentials checked for minimum requirements. A variety of postgraduate courses is being planned for medical officers returning from service. Definite announcement of the scope and content of these courses can not be made at present, but they will cover the fields of medical practice. Such courses will be organ- ized in units of 3 months duration. A number of residencies are available in Research and Educational Hospitals, the Illinois Neuro- psychiatric Institute, and the Illinois Eye and Ear Infirmary. Graduate courses in the basic medical sciences are offered leading to the degrees of Master of Science and Doctor of Philosophy. COLLEGE OF PHARMACY The College of Pharmacy offers a four-year curriculum leading to the degree of Bachelor of Science in Pharmacy. The candidate who is thus prepared, who has had in addition the experience demanded by the law, and who has passed the examination given by the State Board of Pharmacy, if he be over twenty-one, of good moral character and temperate habits, may be a candidate for the certifi- cate of registered pharmacist. The pharmacist is concerned with the selection, preservation, standardization, and preparation of drugs and medicinals. He must be trained in the fundamental sciences, physical and biological, be- fore studying the applied and professional subjects. Hence, his first two years are devoted to the basic subjects necessary for proper preparation for a profession concerned with health. In the third and fourth years he specializes — in applied pharmacy, organic and pharmaceutical chemistry, bacteriology, physiology, and pharma- cology — and takes other courses pertinent to his field of speciallza- Manual for War Veterans 51 tion. The five majors, in one of which each student speciaHzes in his fourth and fifth years, are (1) the retail pharmacy major, (2) the hospital pharmacy major, (3) the chemistry major, (4) the food and drug major, and (5) the pharmacognosy major. The first two permit specialization in applied pharmacy; the other three are designed for students preparing for work in analytical chemistry, food and drug laboratories, and pharmacognosy. The three fields of specialization thus afforded to the veteran are: 1. Pharmacy, which includes Retail Pharmacy, Hospital Pharmacy, and Manufacturing Pharmacy (pharmaceuticals, cos- metics, veterinary and dental products). 2. Pharmacognosy, which includes Food and Drug Control (as inspectors, chemists, and pharmacognosists), and Drug Plant Cultivation. 3. Chemistry, which includes Analytical Chemists (control laboratories). Food Chemists (production), and Manufacturing Chemists (synthetic drugs, etc.). For requirements for admission and graduation and detailed account of the courses offered, the prospective student may consult the Annual Register of the University of Illinois. In general, the veterans who enter the College will fall into the following classes: 1. Former pharmacy students. These students should continue in the regular course work at the level at which they are qualified. Suitable programs can be outlined for those entitled to only one year of training. 2. Ph.C. graduates. By slight modification of present provi- sions, the requirements for the Bachelor of Science degree may be completed in one year by these students. 3. Students formerly in attendance at a college other than a college of pharmacy, and not candidates for a degree. A program suitable for these can be arranged. 4. College graduates. The sequence of courses for these stu- dents, whether Pharmacy graduates or not, may be selected from undergraduate and graduate courses, depending on the objectives and qualifications of the veterans.
