Cramer Supt. of Bldgs. and Grounds Purchasing Agent University Editor University Infirmary Administrative Officials Administrative officials of the Uniy eesity found the year of 1946-1947 a busy one as they tried to maintain housing and classroom facilities on an equal basis with sky-high enrollment figures. An all-out drive prior to the first semester to obtain adequate housing for students found the administrative hierarchy well occupied, making the most of what they had, and providing for new living quarters for both married and single students. The housing situation eased somewhat during the second semester as University bigwigs threw open the doors of Pine Hall to unmarried men, Increased classroom space also occupied an important place on the program as new buildings went up in back of the Ad Building. Smooth operation of the school during the second semester was a well-earned tribute to the administrative staff. With two exceptions, the staff was composed of personnel with long experience in their jobs. Kenneth A. Dick replaced Frank Stanton as Bursar, while L. C. Warner was named to succeed Evelyn M. Albrecht as Purchasing Agent. Page twenty-five

Board of Regents, left to right: Mr. Mrs. Maude C. Houston, Mr. John D. Remsberger, Jr., and Mr. Emery Owen Board of Regents Final decisions on educational problems of the University lie in the hands of the Idaho Board of Regents, supreme governing body of Gem State education. Meeting quarterly, this six- member board coordinates policies, gives final approval on all decisions. The Board of Regents this year will no doubt be remembered as the educational fathers who, along with the Idaho Educational Association and the twenty-ninth legislature, did more for Idaho’s schools than had been done in the past three decades. Highlights stemming from this year’s efforts were the bill creating the “State College of Idaho” at Pocatello, which authorized four-year degree-granting courses in the Arts and Sciences, and the approval of the largest budget ever submitted by the University. This year has seen a general increase in educational problems of the state as a whole. Solving these problems has meant more work for the Board of Regents. The results obtained are a good criterion of the board’s efforts. New members this year include Alton B. Jones, State Superintendent of Public Instruction, and Mrs. Maude C. Houston.

Herbert E. Lattig Dean of Men Known as a conscientious and able administra- tor, Dean of Men Hereert FE. Larric gives helpful advice to his “boys,” and coordinates his activities with those of the Veteran’s Admin- istration. With the large increase in enrollment, the path to his desk is well worn. Many a wor- ried look has been replaced by one of relief when “Dad” Lattig gives the solution. Page twenty-six Mrs. Louise S.
