318 Resources available for maintenance: The department is maintained out of the general funds of the university. Its budget calls for $40,625.

Laboratory facilities: Though temporarily housed, the laboratories, complete in number, are admirably equipped with respect to both teaching and research. A successful effort has been made to provide facilities worthy of students on a two-year college basis and of teachers deserving opportunities for progressive work. The department lacks only a building which shall bring its parts together.
