Dr. P. W. Alexander Academic Dean “Hello, how are you” has become the trade mark of East Tennessee State’s Dean. Dean Alexander, who is in his tenth year as dean, never misses a chance to greet students. His cheery words, pleasing smiles and per¬ sonal nod of the head often make a freshman forget his homesickness, ease the worry of a coming exam for a sophomore, erase the problem of a junior or make a senior a little more proud that he is a student at East Ten¬ nessee State. Minds That Help Greeting with a warm smile all who visit her office on the second floor of the Administration Building, Dean Ross characterizes the friendliness of the East Tennessee State administra¬ tion. Despite her full schedule of business and social activities, Dean Ross welcomes any opportunity to become acquainted with the students, whether it be at Panhellenic functions, dormitory meetings, or a casual visit in her office. In Miss Ross may be found a sympathetic friend to whom students may bring their problems. Miss Ella V. Ross Dean of Women

Student Person nel Services East Tennessee State College has adopted the philos¬ ophy that Student Personnel Services should be available to all students and attempts to coordinate all phases of student life into such a program. It holds also, that a student advisement should be the responsibility of all members of the college family, including the administra¬ tive officers, heads of schools, chairmen of departments, faculty members, and students. From a limited beginning in 1941, the program has expanded to offer all services necessary for an adequate division of Student Personnel Services. It is the feeling of the college that such a program will assist the student to develop to the greatest possible degree of his capacity. Miss Ella V.
