Dean Boyd PRENTICE BOYD, Dean of the College of Arts and ices of the University, is one of the most prominent figures le campus, and holds the distinction of also being one of the prominent educators in the South. He was born on February 26, 1877, at Cameron, West Virginia, and was graduated from Oberlin College in 1898, and received his master’s degree from Cornell in 1905, re- turning there in 1911 for a degree in philosophy. Dean Boyd came to the University in 1912, as a professor of mathematics, and the following year he was made head of that department. In 1917, due to the resignation of the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences, a vacancy was left in this department and, upon recommendation, the board of trustees appointed Professor Boyd dean “pro tern.” The following year the presi- dent of the University retired, and Dean Boyd was elected to the office until the board of trustees could elect President Barker's successor. Dean Boyd acted as president until Dr. McVey came to the University in 1919, when he resumed his work as Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. Dean Boyd is not only prominent in the South, but is recognized all over the country, being listed in “Who’s Who in America,” “American Men of Sci- ence,” and Who is Who in After-War Education in America.” This at- tests the prominence of the Dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Kentucky. 16
