VIA. THE DEPARTMENT OF HOUSEHOLD ADMINISTRATION OFFICERS OF INSTRUCTION

MARION TALBOT, A.M., LL.D., Professor of Household Administration.

SOPHONISBA PRESTON BRECKINRIDGE, PH.D., J.D., Assistant Professor of Social Economy.

INTRODUCTORY

The courses in this Department are planned to give students (1) a general view of the place of the household in society as a means of liberal culture; (2) training in the rational and scientific administration of the home as a social unit; (3) preparation to serve as teachers of Home Economics, Domestic Science, and Household Arts, or as social workers in institutions whose activity is largely expressed through Household Administration. The regular courses of the Department are supplemented by courses offered by instructors in other departments. Special attention is called to courses of the Departments of Sociology, Chemistry, Zoology, Physiology, and Bacteriology, and of the School of Education, which are especially adapted to the needs of students in Household Administration.

In the case of students desiring to pursue a special line of work or to fit themselves for some particular field of activity, the instructors will give assistance in organizing courses of study. The work of this as of other departments may be used under the rules of the University toward fulfilling the requirements for the different degrees. No special certificate is awarded by the Department, but an official statement of courses satisfactorily completed is granted on request.

Opportunities are afforded for gaining practical experience in housekeeping, lunchroom management, marketing, household accounting, and similar activities. There are also frequent occasions for active participation in such philanthropic work as supplements the instruction of the classroom.

The Household Administration Club meets to discuss important new literature, to present results of investigations carried on by instructors and students in the Department, and to hear specialists on topics not fully treated in the regular curriculum.

Instruction in a limited number of courses is offered through the Correspondence-Study Department, to which inquiries for information should be addressed.

The courses of the Department of Household Administration are open to six classes of students:

1. Graduate students who wish to pursue advanced work. Candidates for the Master's and the Doctor's degrees will conform to the University regulations for advanced degrees (see pp. 112-15). The specific requirements of the Department will be determined in each case according to the undergraduate training of the candidate.

2. Senior College students who have completed the requirements of the Junior Colleges either in the University of Chicago or elsewhere may take their Major or Minor sequence for the Bachelor's degree in the Department of Household Administration or may choose courses as free electives.

3. Junior College students who are admitted on the presentation of 15 units from the list of approved subjects are then allowed to take a limited amount of work in the Department of Household Administration, together with regular required work.

4. College of Education students registering for the four years' course which leads to the Bachelor's degree in Education.

5. College of Education students who are candidates for the two-year certificate in Home Economics.

6. Unclassified students who may wish to pursue courses independent of a degree. Such students must be at least twenty-one years of age and have had a four-year high-school course or its equivalent, including either Physics or Chemistry. Unclassified students may take any courses for which their preparation fits them. The decision as to what constitutes adequate preparation rests with the instructors of courses elected. It is understood that the admission of unclassified students to the University is a privilege which will be terminated in the case of any individual, if, at any time, the Faculties have reason to believe that the best use is not being made of it.

The work of the Department is devoted to (a) the history and psychology of religion, (b) the epistemology of religion, (c) the metaphysics of religion.
