1 Solves UN ' s women ' s problems By the close of her first year as Dean of Women Miss Johnston had proved the value of the qualifies which she possesses, those of leadership, progres- sive spirit, and gracious personality. Always ready to listen to and work with those who are interested in matters affecting the students, she has done much to improve and strengthen activities on the campus. Miss Johnston acts in an advisory capacity to the PI. W. S. Board; she secures positions for those women who wish to work while attending the university. By virtue of her office as secretary of the faculty committee on student or- ganizations and social functions, it is her responsi- bility to inform students, both men and women, of the rules and regulations on campus and to keep in close contact with all student activities. Wisely and fairly handling each problem brought before her, Dean Johnston has exhibited competence and ability throughout the year and has gained recognition as a real friend and advisor.

mm t eoH Itk piftsm Leads UN ' s men Acting as Dean of Student Affairs and Chairman of the University Curriculum and Scholarship Committees would slow down most men, but not genial Dr. T. J. Thompson. Directing student activities, passing on new courses, and awarding scholarships are all in a day ' s work for him. Brought up on a farm. Dean Thompson is an avid fisherman and gardener. In the educational field he is a strong believer in a liberal education with stress laid on the study of languages, history, mathematics, and science. He believes emphasis should be placed on good courses, good teaching, and good citizenship. Dean Thompson advocates a program which will con- stantly improve teaching facilities and at the same time will make provisions for increased faculty research. This, he believes, will make the university an even greater institution. In this Dean Thompson is in full accord with the student body.
