American University - Talon / Aucola Yearbook (Washington, DC)

Dr. Bowles not only brought a new course, a new major to The American University, but with him came sincere and lasting friendships that few achieve during the four short years of college life. His active association with the University has paralleled that of our class: we both started in 1948, and we both finish in 1952. He has been a good friend and stimulating teacher; he has been active in all student affairs. He is a man who lives in the present and builds for the future — constantly striving toward the goal he has set for himself. We dedicate the 1952 Aucola to the one professor who can grade forty-six F ' s to a class of fifty students and still have fifty friends. Dr. Edgar O. Bowles Ph.D., Johns Hopkins Associate Professor of Geology
