This advantage is especially helpful in making arrangements for courses where both theory and practice are essential. Ogden is particularly attractive as a technical trade-training center because of the openings available to students who complete training courses in the trades. 2. The location of the community which the College serves enables it to cooperate with the high schools and senior institutions, the homes, and the students who are graduated from Box Elder, Davis, Morgan, and Weber County Districts. These students may live at home and attend college, a social and economic advantage to parents and students. 3. The Ogden locality affords abundant opportunity for field trips, observation, and study in courses in the sciences and the arts. Field trips in such subjects as botany, zoology, engineering, geography, geology, social sciences, art, and photography are regularly scheduled. Situated forty miles from the Utah State Capital, and within driving distance to mining and industrial interests of the magnitude of the Geneva Steel Mills and the Bingham Copper Mines, the College has access to these additional educational resources of the community. 4 The environment features of the Ogden locality afford such recreational opportunities as mountain hiking, trout fishing, hunting, boating, swimming, golfing, motoring, skating, and skiing, all of which are utilized in the activity program of the College.
