REGISTRAR Registrar Hughey confers with his secretary Mrs. Fowler, about applications for students. Registrar W. Glen Hughey is a familiar face to all students at Anderson College. His office is probably tlie first a student enters at the beginning of the year when he is trying to get classes arranged. Later on many find themselves dropping by to drop that class diat Mr. Hughey advised them not to take in the first place. The Registrar has many functions not readily dis- cernible to die average student. His office handles tran- scripts of college grades, is concerned with student appli- cations, handles class scheduling and registration and similar activities. Mr. Hughey also travels widely, visi- ting high schools and acquainting interested persons with the college. He can also be seen in the Bird Cage taking movies of basketball games. BUSINESS MANAGER Marvin L. Cash, business manager, for many years taught bookkeeping and accounting in tlie business de- partment at Anderson College before accepting his Mr. Cash, business manager. present position. An energetic and efficient adminis- trator, Mr. Cash handles dirough his office all financial matters concerning die college. Unlike some men who handle figures predominantly, Mr. Cash has many collegiate interests outside his office. He is an avid fan at most basketball games and is inter- ested in school affairs in general. Students with financial problems, who are most of them, find him a most helpful counselor. 29

DEANS Mrs. Mildred Kirby is Dean of Women, and in this capacity she is responsible in a very specific sense for the conduct of Anderson College women students. She also serves in an advisory capacity for all female stu- dents. Mrs. Kirby uses her authority for the good of the student, and in the vast majority of students recognize this point. As well as being Dean of Women, she serves on various administrative committees and as advisor for the Women ' s Council. C. E. Butler serve s as the Dean of Men, a position of heavy responsibility. Dean Butler can, when forced, rule with an iron hand but normally he uses his authority both sparingly and leniently. Manv male students will at some time in their aca- demic careers be summoned to Dean Butler ' s office for an infraction of the college iiiles. Here, unless there has been a flagrant disabuse of school guidelines, the student will receive a lecture. But the Dean is not just preaching. Found in this lecture are the facts and a sometimes not expressed but obviously implied ultimatum. Most male students like the Dean; all respect him. 28

Dr. J. R. Young, founder of LEAC ALUMNI LEAC We honor Dr. James R. Young of Anderson, South Carohna, who urged the adoption of a hving endowment program for Anderson College which he had formulated. During 1960 he, with the en- thusiastic assistance of Dr. J. E. Rouse, president of Anderson College, the trustees, and a group of the community ' s leading citizens organized the association of LEAC (pronounced Lee-ak formed by the initials of Living Endowment Anderson College). I wish to suggest a method or plan for the benefit of our college, said Dr. Young in his original appeal for LEAC. Anderson College cer- tainly has many hundreds of former students and graduates who would be interested in annually supporting such a project. It is also to the sons and daughters of Anderson County, who are loyal citizens interested in the welfare of Anderson and particularly interested in the institution that con- tributes to the culture of our city and county, that this proposal is directed. In order that the quality of service rendered our young people might progressively improve, it would seem wise that this additional income be used for the purpose of enlarging and strengthening the faculty. If this project is skillfully and loyally carried out and the funds used wisely each year, I believe this living endowment fund would become a most valuable part of the income of Anderson College, because the fund represents only the ' interest ' and the corpus of the endowment is made up of that enlarging group of loyal citizens who are truly in- terested in the welfare of our youth. The Alumni Association is composed of all graduates and former students of Anderson College. The Alumni Association for the first time has chosen nine persons who are known as the Anderson College Alumni Associ- ation ' s Board of Directors. The nine directors are: Mrs. Richard L. Baker of Newberry (Colie Blease, Class of ' 25), Baylis E. Anderson of Belton (Class of ' 35), Milton Dickson of Columbia (Class of ' 61), Mrs. J. Watt Kirkpatrick of Charlotte, N. C. (Hazel Meeks, ' 29), Mrs. John Livingstone of Avon- dale Estates, Ga. (Mildred Hall, Class of ' 32), Miss Nancy L. Watson of Florence (Class of ' 61 ), Dr. Carl D. English of Anderson (Class of ' 40), Miss Louise Kellett of Greenville (Class of ' 43), and Dr. William B. Hubbard of Spartanburg (Class of ' 43). The 1967-68 officers of the Anderson College Alumni Association are President, Mrs. Willard Bishop (Ethel- fred Blackman ' 39 ) Vice President, Mrs. Jerry T. Vickery (Jo Shirley ' 61 ) Immediate Past President, Ron Gilreath ' 61, Recording Secretary, Miss Nancy Leopard ' 66, Corresponding Secretary, Mrs. D.
