THE COLLEGE 11 at the major fairs and shows within the State. Breeding stock and student-owned livestock from the college herds have won top honors at such shows as the Great Western in Los Angeles, the Grand National in San Francisco, and the State Fair in Sacramento. Thirty-four new farm buildings on this agricultural campus provide one of the most modern and best equipped agricultural plants in the west. For major offerings in agriculture, see Agriculture Division. LIBRARY A functional building, completed in 1956, houses the College Library. The collections include over 160,000 catalogued volumes, 65,000 government publications, 30,000 pamphlets, 30,000 maps, and 18,000 pictures and prints. Over 1,500 periodicals are received on subscription. Special collections include the Roy J. Woodward Memorial Library of Californiana and the College Archives. A collection of 4,500 volumes in the College Laboratory School Library provides a model library for an elementary school. The Curriculum Library, with over 15,000 volumes, contains material of value to students of education. The library building accommodates 636 readers. All students have free access to the resources of the Library. Professional librarians are available to assist students in their use of library materials. The Library is open seventy-five hours a week, during hours posted at the entrance to the building. LABORATORY SCHOOL The Laboratory School is of special interest to students preparing for teaching and related fields. The school's philosophy, facilities, and program reflect the interest of the people of California for the education of their children. The school functions to provide demonstration, observation, participation, leadership, and some experimentation and research through its facilities and personnel to all persons interested in professional preparation and improvement. Group demonstrations and individual study may be arranged in connection with courses taught on the college campus and as a service to educational units in the service area of Fresno State College. The school consists of a kindergarten and six elementary grades housed in a modern elementary school surrounded by five acres of fenced campus. A children's library with more than 4,000 books is available within the school for use by college students as well as the pupils enrolled in the school. Selected teachers guide the program of studies for pupils in each grade. The curriculum of the elementary school implements the accepted Framework for Public Education in California. The school provides a laboratory in which students, in-service teachers, administrators, and parents may develop their understanding of children and of educational concepts and methods by observing and working with children. Demonstrations, observation, and individual study opportunities may be used in connection with such classes as psychology, growth and development, curriculum, arts, vocal and instrumental music, physical education, home economics, and family life education. STUDENT LIFE College students are expected to assume the responsibilities for personal conduct appropriate to their age and maturity. On that account rather wide freedom is granted by the college administration to the students as individuals and as organized groups. This responsibility has been accepted in an admirable way by the students of the college, and an unusual degree of self-government has been established. A student court has authority to deal with cases involving interpretation of student regulations or their violation. A committee on student life composed of faculty and students evaluates the student life program and makes recommendations on policy and procedure. Regulations as to satisfactory scholarship, disqualification for unsatisfactory work and related questions bearing upon college requirements are administered in accordance with college policies.
