By his zeal and understanding of human nature he has won over many a stu- dent to better himself in studies.- CLAUDE M. REED, Ph.C., A.B.

He is a credit to his field, and to the College. M. MEDFORD COOPER, Ph.C., B.S.

FRANCIS JOSEPH O'BRIEN Ph.C., A.B., A.M. Professor of Pharmacy and Mathematics A graduate of the Albany College of Pharmacy, and also educated at New York State College for Teachers, Mr. O'Brien became in- structor in Pharmacy and Mathe- matics. He is now the Pharmacy Department head. We can think of no one man in the field who is more ably qualified to be head of the Department of Pharmacy. Certainly there is none more sincere, none more energetic, and none with his teaching ability to put it across. J. GEORGE LUTZ B.S., A.M., Ph.D. Professor of Chemistry Dr. Lutz obtained his A.M. degree at Columbia in 1925, before be- coming Professor of Chemistry at Westminster College. He returned to Columbia for his Ph.D. Dr. Lutz joined the faculty of Union Univer- sity in 1935. In the fall of 1937 we were fortunate in securing his able services as Professor of Chemistry. Here is a man who keeps abreast of his field.
