I Guiding the Student The Student Personnel Services, a complex of 12 de- partments, is coordinated by the Dean of Students. All offices observe an open door policy and are will- ing to help students at any time. While the university as a whole is concerned with the intellectual growth of the student, these offices ' main concern often is the student ' s activities outside of the classroom. The many recreational, health and cultural services, and pro- grams which students use every day are supervised by these departments. The Deans help the student to ad- just to the university, and, at the same time, try to recognize and adjust to changing needs of the student. Dean of Women NOLASTARK CAVETTE advises AWS, Panhel- lenic, sponsors honoraries, and pre- pares academic records for awards. One of the most familiar faces to students is Dean of Students BYRON H.
