First Lady of Lutheran High Out of the blue, one year at Lutheran High, it came about that someone said, Lo and behold! We have a majority of girls in this school but no women ' s dean! And so, since women ' s rights was a big question of the age, the position of Dean of Women was begun and Miss Karon Reinboth was the first to fill the position. This may not have been exactly how it happened, but it turned out to be a very good idea — not necessarily because we need a dean exclusively for women. Rather, it is because one dean who has to teach several classes doesn ' t have the time to do all his deanly duties. Having two deans makes it possible for problems to be worked out as they come up, instead of as-soon-as-there-will-be-time. There is less rushing around and putting things off and less shattered patience. The dean of men and dean of women can confer with each other on special problems. With a new person comes a new viewpoint on the old problems. An overworked faculty is one of Lutheran High ' s chronic weak- nesses. Teachers either carry an overload of classes or get burdened with extra-cur- ricular activities. Students don ' t always have time to study because of athletic events, clubs, and concerts they are involved in. Our new dean proposed a revamping of class formats: Required subjects could be divided into classes with minimal home- work and classes that are in-depth study courses. Interested students wouldn ' t be held back by people who take the course because it ' s required. Both students and teachers would be able to have a class or two that doesn ' t take quite so much plan- ning. The thing Miss Reinboth likes most about her new job is meeting students outside of class and getting to know them as Christian friends. Her brightly decorated office is the perfect place for informal talks. If someone else moves into her office next year let ' s hope they at least like orange and yellow.
