‘It. will be interesting to examine the course offerings for the non-
iological student at those institutions which have expanded into
eral education.

nly five schools offer courses in support of a curriculum for the

ortland, Oreg., and St. Paul, ‘Minn., there are no general course
fferings sufficient to justify the establishment of separate non-
neological. curricula.

elds at our educational institutions is the field of music, especially
‘the great music of the Lutheran Church. .We have an increasing
‘number of men who have made a thorough study of our musical heri-

We recommend that a committee be appointed by the Board for
Higher Education for the purpose of making recommendations con-
erning the development of music training and study at our synodical
stitutions. ;
