Dr. M. Irene Bailey-B.S., M.S., Ph.D. She does not seek the limelight For she is modest, self-effacing; yes, even a little timid . . . yet, paradoxically, she radiates light in her quiet, majestic way; illuminating the halls of Columbia Uni- versity College of Pharmacy with her kindly presence. Of course, you know who she is . . . none other than Dr. Irene Bailey, more affectionately called Ma Bailey by the student body. The appel- lation is indicative of Dr. Bailey ' s quali- ties and of the love felt for her by the students. Ma . . . symbolic of an individual who is tender, sympathetic, toler- ant; with a well of understanding for the problems, trials and tribulations of youth . . . the inner conflicts; the doubts; the intense desire to make good dominant in each palpitating heart! How fortunate it is that the freshmen, upon entering C.U.C.P., young and eager, beset with anxieties, a little fearful of College, and over-awed by College Professors . . . that they have Dr. Bailey in their first year. From the moment a new student comes in to her class and gazes at the benign, pleasant face of Ma Bailey and sees the warmth exuding from her gentle blue eyes and her unassuming person-to-person manner of ap- proach . . . fears miraculously disperse and a warm glow permeates the being. Dr. Irene Bailey, we salute you, and nominate you for C.U.C.P. ' s Hall of Fame, where your name shall be inscribed for posterity, as you personify the teaching profession in its highest and noblest form . . . blending academic knowl- edge with humility and humanism, resulting in greatness!!!
