With the rising en rollment and the continuous betterment of University plant and equipment, faculty and students unite in believing that the main work of the University should steadily improve. Higher and more exacting standards for scholarship measurement have been established during the year and the standards already set have been more relentlessly enforced. Certain progress has been made toward that early coming time when good scholarship will be the rule and the shame of the slacker will rest on every student who neglects his main job. N ot the least significant event of this great University year was the placing of N evada's University on its approved list by the Association of American Uni versities. Word of this approval of Nevada's rising scholarship standards by America's most exacting standardizing authority came last December. In every college of the University this year records definite progress. Arts and Science is alive with plans for more definite work requirement for its diplomas and for its special pre-professional courses and is proud of the rising standards of thoroughness in teacher training which are being set during this first year of its newly reorganized School of Education. Agriculture has widened its offerings of thorough courses scientifically grounding agricultural leaders and calls attention to the strengthening of its homemaking work for the women students enrolled in its School of Home Economics. Engineering, too, moves and moves rapidly. This is the first year in many that the Staff of this College has been Complete. Some new equipment has been installed and shops and laboratories have been put into far better working condition than ever be fore. This College has received special benefits from the coming of the Min ing Experiment Station and the Federal Wireless plants. Strong as has been the Engineering division of the University in the past years, this division records its highest tide in this year. The'general University faculty and its committees have been unusually active and plans are afoot still better to adjust curriculum offerings to the new needs.
