a large lecture room used primarily
for lectures to students in the elementary course who number over
250 each semester, four smaller lecture rooms, laboratory rooms for
zoology,
classes in elementary
heredity, histology, embryology,
Invertebrate zoology, vertebrate
zoology, and parasitology. Several
offices are used for graduate stu
dent assistants who are serving as
assistants in the teaching program
and who are working on Master's
degrees. Several research labora
tories and a photographic laboratory are available to staff and stu
dents doing research;
The department supports a very
popular natural history museum
with pver 400 animal types on display. Several habitat groups show
mounted animals in their natural
surroundings. A recent acquisition, the W.lener Fish Collection,
consists of approximately 50 examples of highly colored marine
fish. This collection is valued at
over $2,000 and will be ready for
display within the next few
months. The museum is visited by
thousands of persons, including
many school children, each year.
It is also used by the Department
of Zoology in its teaching program.
The teaching program in the department is concerned with giving
the student who majors in zoology
a background in the field that will
fit him for a variety of career opportunities. The
and
student frequently majors in zoology, as does the student
interested in teaching biology,
whether at the elementary, secondary, or college level. Students
with a general interest in the
world of nature but who are not
aware of the kind of career such
an interest will give them often
major in zoology to find careers in
various areas of wildlife conservation and management.
Students with an innate curiosity concerning the workings of the
animal body and hence an interest
in research may major in zoology
and learn to do credible research
under the guidance of skilled researchers. Active programs of research include studies concerned
with the environment of animals
(ecology), with the heredity of animals (genetics), with animal tissues (histology) and early development (embryology), with animal
parasites (parasitology, and with
the kinds and life histories of animals found in Kentucky (natural
history). Several of these research
projects receive financial support
from well known research foundations for use in obtaining needed
research equipment and for laboratory personnel which is frequently
made up of students.
The department is able to aid
financially the student who desires
to take work in zoology at the
graduate level and thus prepare
himself for a career in the field.
This aid comes in the form of
graduate assistantships which can
pay as much as $120 per month.
Interested students with the proper background can apply for such
aid.
Students Interested in considering zoology as a career area or as
an area of interest are urged to
discuss the matter with any member of the zoology staff or to make
an appointment with Dr. John M.
Carpenter, head of the department.
Room 14. Funkhouser Biological
Science Building. By doing so
early in his career, the student will
be able to find the answers to many
questions which ordinarily puzzle
the student for some time.

Poor J. Foul veldt too scared to ask for a date he just lacked confidence
because of his messy hair. Den one day his roommate said: "Sheedy, get
Wildroot Cream Oil. It'll keep your hair handsome and healthy looking,
and I ain't lion." So J. Paul put the bite on him for some
money and pussyfooted down to the store for a bottle.
Now he's the pride of the campus, inanely beclaws his
hair looks so good . . . neat but not greasy. Wildroot has
no alcohol to dry your hair, instead it contains Lanolin,
Nature's finest hair and scalp conditioner.So be cagey, try
