PURPOSE AND PLAN. The courses in journalism are designed to give
the student instruction and practice in newspaper writing and editing, in
some kinds of magazine writing, and in advertising, as well as to present
current problems of journalism in the light of their origin and develop-
ment. They have been arranged to meet the needs of students in the
School of Journalism, and those in the Colleges of Letters and Science,
Agriculture, and Engineering who desire training in journalistic writing.

LABORATORY EQUIPMENT. The department has a large laboratory
equipped like the city room of a newspaper office, with typewriters, refer-
ence books, maps, a “morgue,” and a copy-desk. Adjoining this are a-read-
ing room with current files of representative American newspapers and
journalistic periodicals, and a lecture room. To familiarize students of
journalism with the principles of typography, the department has a typog-
raphy laboratory for practical work in connection with the courses in
editing, advertising, and newspaper administration.

Masgor. The undergraduate major in journalism is offered only to
candidates for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in Journalism. It requires
not less than 30 credits, as outlined under the heading School of Journalism,
