MR. A. J. BROWN Treasurer DR. F. M. KINARD Dean of Arts and Sciences DR. R. F. POOLE Greets Returning Students. OUR PRESIDENT When all classes are forgotten, all books are burned, and our heads are decked with grey, we shall continue to hold in highest esteem our friend and president, Dr. R. F. Poole. As a graduate of our Alma Mater, he knows our trials, problems, and temptations — and he usually has a plausible solution for each. Under Dr. Poole ' s administration Clemson has grown continually, until today it is one of the top ranking A M colleges in the nation. His thoughts have been motivated toward a greater institution, and his efforts have been toward the fulfillment of this ambition. From farm boy to president — this is the story of Dr. Poole. COL. A. J. THACKSTON Commandant DR. H. HUNTER Dean of Chemistry 20

ADMINISTRATION rhC CZ r ctn iif tL Z f CClZtO Id, and academic policies of Clemson are decided upon in the offices in old Tillman Hall. Here the President, the heads of the various departments, and the other college officials meet and guide the institution through the many and varied problems that arise. From these offices in the main building the maze of red tape goes out to entwine each of the seven schools, the students, and all activities. In spite of the seeming confusion much progress is made toward the ideal of a bigger and better Clemson. 19 20 21 22 DR. R. F. POOLE MR. J. C. LITTLEJOHN COL. A. J. THACKSTON MR. G. E.

ADMINISTRATION BOARD OF DEANS AND DIRECTORS In every intricate organization problems arise periodically which deserve con- sideration in order that they may be mitigated or corrected. At Clemson these problems are solved by the Board of Deans and Directors, a group of men amassed from the seven schools and their subordinate departments. This group meets every Wednesday, or at the call of the President, to discuss and take action on such educational or administrative problems as may be submitted to them. As its decisions and ensuing actions directly affect thousands of students, it is of the utmost importance that the board act wisely and with care. Since its members are representative of the various schools, the board constitutes a cross-section of Clemson, and is therefore fully qualified to act as it sees fit. In the past years many matters have been handled with the hearty support of the student body. The board is often praised and occasionally criticized. By sheer perseverance it has secured for Clemson new buildings, the latest equipment, and a fine teaching staff. V,R. JAMES C. LITTLEJOHN Business Manager DR. SAMUEL B.
