Mor an Hall houses U student services VARIOUS phases of administrative proce- dures and services were handled in the offices and departments located in Morgan Hall. Perhaps the area most frequented by students was the library. Headed this year by Sadie Hall, Acting Librarian, the staff of seven strived to satisfy students' re- quests for research material and was occupied with keeping the ever-increasing card catalogue up to date. In constant contact with faculty, Miss Hall ordered editions on their recommendation which they felt would contribute to make the 76,000 vol- ume library a more serviceable tool for academi- cians. The office of the Registrar and Director of Admissions was another important area on the WU campus. John Harter and his staff were charged with the responsibilities of carrying out enrollment procedures, processing admissions for application to the institution, recording grades and mailing them to students, and keeping all academic records on file and easily accessible. An accessory benefit to students was the Health Services. Staffed by a part-time physician and a full-time nurse, students could stop by the office for first aid or diagnosis of an illness. Flu shots and other medication were also dispensed there. The Service Area included the mailing area, duplicating machines, typewriters, and other office supplies. Although primarily designed for faculty, students were welcome to utilize the facilities to type term papers. ASSOCIATE Registrar Mrs. Geneva Henry keeps an academic record up to date by typing in current data. Mrs. Henry also handles senior analyses, schedule changes, and transcript mailings. it I ACTING librarian Sadie Hall looks over reserve cards in an effort to help a stu- dent find books for a research report.
