In the Medical Faculty, teaching has been dispersed and accommodation was severely restricted even before the Department of Anatomy was destroyed in an air raid. With the expansion which must take place to meet the demands for both undergraduate teaching and graduate training and research, new buildings are a necessity. The scope of the Faculty of Engineering has recently been enlarged by the foundation of the Sir George White chair of aeronautical engineering. The Faculty is housed at some distance from the University in a building on which it has no permanent hold, and new quarters are necessary here, too.
