GRACE PALMER, B.L.S. MAE COWDEN, B.L.S. MARGARET CRIGHTON, A.B., B.L.S. Professor of Library Science Reference Librarian Reference Librarian Librarian Instructor in Library Science Q E ' LIBRARIANS Since its opening, our library has tripled its original number of books, and new rooms have been added and the staff has been increased. Although the entire student body and faculty were disap- pointed when the new library failed to materialize this year because of war restrictions, it is hoped that this plan will be- come a reality after the war. During Miss PaImer's leave of absence, Miss Lena Lunsford is assisting in the north library, and Miss Crighton has replaced Miss Mae Cowden in the south library. ix -A LENA LUNSFORD Library Assistant CRKARIE The success with which the business of an office is conducted depends largely upon the efficiency of its secretaries. STC continues to be exceptionally fortunate in having a group of secretarial assistants who are the quintes- sence of competency. Two changes have occurred in the faculty secretarial staff: Miss Scroggins is again serv- l ing as secretary to the Business Manager after 3 three years absence, and the Dean's new sec- retary is Mrs. Don Sebring. MRS. DON SEBRING LILLIAN COTTEN EDMONSTON Secretary to the Dean Secretary to the President MARY FINLEY BESSIE R. SCROGCINS 5, Secretary to the Registrar Secretary to the Business - ' Manager

0 SCHOOL PHYSICIAN In the past the acme of fear has been reached by freshmen as they en- tered the health office for their re- quired physical examination. How- ever, Dr. William Taylor, who for the last seven years has faithfully served the student body, soon allayed these trepidations. It was through the ef- forts of this progressive physician that the health office was expanded to its present size. Although STC needed him badly, our country had priority on Dr. Taylor. I-Ie is now in the Public Health Division of the United States Army, and Nurse Iva Ray, Dr. Taylor's proficient co-worker, remains in charge of the health office. I IVA MARIE RAY, R. N. OFFICE STAFF Miss Dora Haymes, director of the Depart- ment of Extension, and her capable assistant, Miss Donna Ashworth, have the tremendous responsibility of finding teaching positions' for our graduates and of supervising correspond- ence courses. The office of the Registrar is perhaps the first official view of college life which the entering freshmen have. The Registrar begins her service to the student when he enters as a freshman and continues her valuable assist- ance until his graduation. In addition to issuing grades and managing student enrollments, the Registrar keeps a complete record of each student's college career. This is Miss C-aIloway's tenth year as Registrar, and Miss Simmon's first as assistant.

THE FACULTY COUNCIL One of the oldest and most active groups on the campus, the Faculty Council, is com- posed of the heads of all school departments. lt is, in fact, the administrative body of the college and the executive committee for the faculty. What the Board of Regents is to the faculty, the Faculty Council is to the students. Its existence is due to custom and not to any provision of law. Since its organization, it has been one of the most zealous administrative forces on the campus. Early this year the Council approved a plan suggested by the Educational Policies Com- mission of the N. E. A. to the effect that high school boys with three and one-half years' work might enter college, and, while completing high school credits, could begin preparing for their college degrees before being drafted into the army. The regular duties of the Council are making class schedules, determining the college curricula, and recommending new educational policies for STC. 1 7 A. , - L1 if N 5,55 . 1. g ii V Seated-Dean N.
