STATE UNI TO BE
REORGANIZED
FOR FALL TERM
Centralization of Administra
tion Found Necessary to
Efficiently Manage
State School.
More centralzition in administra
tration and more democracy in par
ticipation is, perhaps, the phrase that
most nearly describes the principle
bf the reorganization of the Ne
braska State university this spring.
It was found that the multiplicity
of departments rendered the matter
of correlating courses of study
somewhat difficult. For example,
A SOFT DRINK
THAT IS DIFFERENT
fORMTRLY KNOWN AS CllfC ONA VANS ALtf
Like bread and butter, it is an essential
rather than an adjunct to a meal, boes
fine with everything or alone.
Order from Grocer, Druggist or Dealer.
GLADSTONE BROS., Distributors,
1316 Farnam St., Omaha.
English was divided into two quite
distinct departments-rhetoric and
English literature.
In addition to this, there were sev
eral departments which touched
each other on all sides and yet were
quite distinct in their administration.
For example, the three depart
ments of American history, Euro
pean history and English history.
In the reorganization of the de
partments each of them was placed
on what is known in university cir
cles as the committee basis, with a
chairman instead of a head. The
province of the chairman is merely
to preside at the meetings of the
department and to represent the de
partment before the dean and cnan-
cellor. He is appointed for a short
term and may have any professional
rank.
Added to the administrative offi
cers of the university is an entirely
new officer known as the provost
His duties need not be fully defined,
but in general consist of supervising
the instruction in the university as
a whole. He is to serve, in a meas
ure, as an educational expert, to see
that the teaching in all of the de
partments in all of the colleges is
as it should be.
Overseas Soldiers Pass
Through Here On Way Home
A troop train over the Rock
Island-Union Pacific passed through
Omaha at noon, carrying 500 men,
enroute from Newport News to
Fort Russell and points farther
west. The men were from overseas
and remained here an hour.
Tonight, a troop train over the
Milwaukee-Union Pacific, destined
for the Pacific coast, will handle
300 overseas men.
