THE NOCATULA thanks Chaplain Howard Hinds for his many contribu- tions to Wesleyan Hfe during his four years on campus. Chaplain Howard Hinds, a native of Knoxville, is a graduate of the Univer- sity of Tennessee and Emory Universi- ty. He is a member of the Pi Kappa Alpha, social fraternity, and the Theta Phi, scholastic fraternity. With the United States Army he served two years on active duty as a First Lieutenant. A versatile personality, he is in de- mand for many student activities which throw him into direct contact with a majority of the students. His many re- sponsibilities include his advisorship of the Student Christian Association, Cir- cle K, and Phi Kappa Phi fraternity. One of his most important roles, how- ever, is his chairmanship of the Reli- gious Life Council. In addition to this, he is Wesleyan ' s golf coach. He also participates in civic organiza- tion as a member of the Kiwanis Inter- national and the Board of Directors of the YMCA. The open door of Chaplain Hinds ' office is a symbol of his readiness to serve each student. His congenial personality and leisurely manner are an invitation for friendship. As one of his advisees said, I feel that he is my friend. He puts forth a sincere effort to help me; he ' s not just doing a job. Many students like his sense of humor and his charm. He is always good for a laugh, but his appeal has served a more worthy purpose than just to delight the students. For example, recently when a visitor remarked that Wesleyan ' s men were unusually courteous, it was the concensus of those present that the Chaplain had decidedly influen ced the chivalrous behavior of many of the male students. Perhaps he is best known to many students as Happy Chappy, actually a title of respect, for he has shared his unique happiness with all. One never ceases to be impressed by his exuberant spirit that can set the spirit of any standstill group into vibration. Chaplain Hinds, who will be remem- bered as an ideal combination of light- hearted participation in fun and serious dedication to a purpose, does his job with a smile, and having done his job simply and honorably has placed his im- print on Tennessee Wesleyan College and particularly on the minds and the lives of the students who have known him. 19
