K S U M M E R Q U A R T E R DAN t t t MiLO G. Derham I HIRTY-ONE years ago a summer session of six weeks was organized, in the conviction that the University, due to its high standards and favorable location, pos- sessed unusual promise of becoming an important center of summer study. The steady growth of the session proved this conviction well founded. Sixteen years ago, a change was made to a summer quarter of two distinctly marked terms of equal length. A rapid increase in enrollment and scope of influence resulted. Each year visiting instructors from worthy institutions have been invited to assist the resident members of the faculty. Courses have been offered in practically every department of the University, to a student body representing every state in the union. The endeavor to adequately provide for the requirements of a student body of diversified interests and to utilize fully the peculiar advantages pertaining to our Uni ' versity, with its cool summer climate conducive to serious study, and its natural setting, inviting to stimulating recreation has resulted in developing activities either peculiar to, or meriting special emphasis in, the summer. MiLO G. Derh.am, Dean. U. «J [29]

t A O I E X T E N S O N A. C. Cross I HE Extension Division has eight bureaus, a department of publications, a librarian, and its own registrar. The policies for the Division are formulated by the Extension Council which is composed of eight faculty members from different colleges in the University, the University librarian, and the Extension staff. All of the activities of the Division are self-sustaining. The range of service covers many of the business activities of the state and local government, newspapers, schools, and instruction through both extension classes and correspondence students. With the reorganization of the School of Business under Dean Elmore Petersen, there is a close cooperation between that School and the Extension Division. A. C. Cross, Assistant Director. [28]

t t c T L O L D E A N F M E N Harry G. Carlson I HE duties of the Dean of Men seem to consist of finding as many ways as possible to be of help to the men of the University. As a member of the Discipline, Readmission, Loan, Employment, Student Health, and Social Committees, he has unlimited opportu- nities to be of service to students. The work of his ofiice is almost entirely personal in nature and is based upon mutual confidence between student and occupant. Perhaps every student before graduating becomes the friend of some faculty mem- ber to whom he goes to talk over personal problems — those matters that do not neces ' sarily involve the curricular side of education. If it were not for these friendships that exist between students and individual members of the faculty, the job of the Dean of Men would, indeed, be difficult. H.ARRY G. Carlson, Dean of Men. [30] t
