The Campus The most popular building on the campus is Fordenbaugh Hall, the home of the co-ed, when she is home. The girls rooms are divided into (1) a large make up room and (2) a small study room. The Men's Dormitory, a spacious scholastic retreat, is located conveniently near. A bus line regularly operates between these halls and important downtown points such as Rowland's Park, Genesee Ridge, and the city park. Another bus line, in connection with the Lewiston Police Department runs between Moscow and the Metronome, leaving at half past on Thursday and returning on schedule time at the Student ,~;~::~·uL!:;~:~~ and whim of the Lewiston officials. Fraternity and Sorority houses also occupy a place on the campus, but the university refrains from committing itself further. Scattered here and there on the outskirts of our campus are miscellaneous food factories and ice cream parlors where hot groceries and light refreshments are served for the convenience of the collegians.

The Arboretum Adjoining the campus on the South is the Arboretum which is composed largely of grass and F•·,te,.nily Rouse on trees. The Arboretum plays a large part in the S<ttw·day Nialtt education of the eds and co-eds every year and is perhaps the most popular and best loved spot on the Idaho campus. The regular night labs offered by the College of Campustry begin in the Arboretum on the night of the arrival of the Special and last nearly the whole year, with the exception of a short period during the winter months when the cold weather and the snow make it inconvenient. Attendance at these night labs is very regular even though the huge number of students enrolled make it necessary for most classes to be conducted without the aid of college teachers. A large number of student teachers are used in these courses and they have proved highly satisfactory. The apparent inconsistency of frequently changing instructors is not a sign of weakness in the system, but rather is due to a desire for information on several different teaching methods.
