farewell Dr. J. Ben Rorinson speaks at a testimonial dinner given in his honor by the Alumni of the B. C. D. S. On his retirement on May 1, Dr. J. Ben Robinson, Dean of the School of Dentistry since 1924, will leave his alma mater with a remarkable record of competent administration and leadership. Throughout the years of his occupancy of the deanship he has made important contributions in most of the areas of dental thought and action. On all levels of organization he has been vitally active in promoting the best interests of his profession. In the field of literature he has been an eloquent and efficacious advocate of all elements of progress that would make dentistry a stronger and more versatile contributor to the health needs of the people. As a vigorous and stimulating speaker he has spoken before an amazing number of groups throughout the country, bringing to them earnestly delivered and fluently expressed messages that have greatly influenced the charac ter and status of thousands of his fellow dentists. Undoubtedly Dr. Robinson has accomplished his most valuable work in the field of dental education. As Dean of the University of Maryland ' s School of Dentistry he has been of im- measurable worth to his own School, for during his long service in that office he has been a benign and abounding influence in the development of scores of teachers and in the training of several thousand students who have graduated with an excellent preparation for the suc- cessful fulfillment of their obligations as members of a great profession. As a member of the Council on Dental Education, 193 8-5 1 , and as a source of directive and advisory strength in the American Association of Dental Schools, Dean Robinson has been the greatest individual force in the impressvie enlargement of the curriculum, the greatly expanded physical facilities and the tremendously improved teaching that have marked the splendid progress of dental education in the past quarter of a century. To comment on all the awards, honors and degrees he has received, the organizations he has been a member of or headed, and his accomplishments both within and outside of the field of dentistry would require most of the space in this book. Suffice it to say that it is the opinion of the leaders in the dental profession, each one of whom has had many opportunities for observation and analysis, that Dr. Robinson is the most honored man in the history of dentistry. No other man has received so many awards for his services to the profession and no other man has been privileged to head so many dental organizations. Dr. Robinson has earned the warm appreciation and firm respect of the students, the faculty and the alumni of the School of Dentistry. After twenty-nine years of service as Dean he leaves Maryland with their best wishes for happy and fruitful years ahead. They r know, as do the thousands of dentists throughout the country, that he will go from the University Maryland to become the first Dean of the dental school to be established at West Virginia University. The men of Maryland bid affectionate and deeply regretful farewell to their Dean and hope that he will come back often to his old Baltimore environment.
