Dean Harry G. Carlson DEAN OF MEN ' ' I ' ' HE chief purpose of the Dean of Men ' s office is - - to find as many ways as possible to be helpful to the men of the University. In order to do so. mutual confidence between faculty individuals and student individuals is essential. This is possible if we can think of University life as being a partner- ship between old and young students where the experiences of elders are blended with the experiments of the younger. Dean Harry G. Carlson. Harry G. Carlson, our new Dean of Men, has been with the University of Colorado since 1929. Upon entering the University faculty he became one of the directors of Physical Education for men. On the resignation of Dean Worcester last year, Carlson was placed in this office, and has since proved to be one of the best men ever to fill this capacity. In spite of his promotion. Dean Carlson has remained deeply interested in athletics, lending assistance to the coaches. Dean Carlson attended Springfield College, at Springfield, Massachusetts, where he received his B. P. E. degree in 1920. This degree qualified him as a physical education director in a preparatory school for Yale at Milford, Con- necticut, where he served for four years. In 1924, he went to Clark College at ' orcester, Massachusetts. Here he earned his M. A. degree. With both his B. P. K. and his M. A. degrees, he went to Hamline Uni- versity at St. Paul, Minnesota. As athletic director at that University he remained there during the years 1925 and 1926. With this previous university experience he came to the Universit - of Colorado in 1927. From then until the present date, he has been the friend and advisor of everyone with whom he has come in contact. Since he has been in office he has never been too busy to talk to any student who cared to bring their problems to him. His genuine friendliness that is manifested by the interest he shows in his work has endeared him to all. Dean Carlson has been active in the Interfraternity Council, The problems of the fraternities in regard to co-operative bu ' ing and lower tax rates have been given his attention, and it is his desire to remedy the outstanding defects in the rushing system. Realizing that these problems confront most of the Universities, he has started an investigation of various suggested and tried im|)r(i cments. Pag, ' 1 4
