DEAN OF MEN The Dean of Men’s Office has the major problem of formulating and guiding all policies concerning Syracuse University and the male student. Mr. Clifford Craven, assistant Dean of Men, acts as Dean Piskor’s general assistant. He is the major vocational advisor on the Dean’s staff and is con¬ cerned mainly with students who need counseling. Mr. Joseph Gould is in charge of managing our resident advisors program in men’s living centers, and of determining procedure in the counseling and orientation of male students. FRANK P. PISKOR, Dean of Men The Dean of Men’s office, under Frank Piskor’s leader¬ ship, is responsible for all male students of the univer¬ sity. The student’s status or the college he is enrolled in, makes him no exception from this direction. It is Dean Piskor’s problem along with all the deans and directors of the various colleges, to tend to the academic affairs of the students. The Academic Board, which handles all cases of probation, suspension, and dismissal, is one of the many groups to which Dean Piskor belongs. Dean of Men ' s Office Staff
