ADMINISTRATIVE OFFI 3ERS Robert Granville Caldwell Dean of Humanities Joseph Chrisman RlacKinnon Registrar The successful operation of as large and intri- cate an organization as the Institute requires a highly efficient and smoothly functioning admin- istration. The executive head of this body is the President, who has the supervision of the various departments and is subject to the direction of the Executive Committee of the Corporation. In the absence of the President, his duties are performed by the Vice-President. The administrative body is divided into several departments. each of which is headed by an oflicer appointed by the President. The principal officers are the Deans of Engineering, Architecture, Science, the Graduate School, Students and the Humanities, the Executive Assistant to the President, the Bursar, the Treasurer, and the Director of the Division of Industrial Cooperation. It is the duty of each of these officers to supervise the business, educational and research Work of his own department and to assist the President in coordinating the efforts of his staff with those of the other divisions of the Institute.
