1 9 38 i INDinN IDIEAF OIF mm The Dean of Men is chiefly concerned with the young men of Arkansas State College apart from their classroom joutine. His main interest is in assisting them to make effective adjustments in their college life. The office of the Dean of Men provides opportunities for personal con- ferences and consultation in an endeavor to help the stu- dent to an intelligent furthering of his own interests and the interests of the College and community. A young man in college has problems which are very real and important to him, however trivial they may seem to others. In working toward the solution of some of these problems, Mr. H. W. Ilollard is happy to give his assistance. His office has general supervision of extra-curricular activities. In his oflice are centered, among other things, matters of student conduct. In these his chief concern is with men, emphasizing prevention and cure above discipline. His advice is available to every young man in the institu- tion and to every student organization. MR. H. W. HOLLARD ID IE A or woiNiiiEr The goal toward which college women should strive is to perfect themselves as an instrument of their own destiny. If they want to make an interesting career for themselves, they must have a real desire for acquisition of knowledge and develop a high degree of personal integrity. They must have command over personal resources, all of which requires discipline of mind and discipline of spirit. Those who succeed must be trained to do their own driving, but they need advice and encouragement al ong the way. The Dean of Women is eager to assist the students in their ideals, and help them tith their many problems. Mrs. Mary Rogers Brown undertook the duties as Dean of Women with the opening of the fall term. 1937-1938. She has found the goal set for her high as the office was for- merly filled by her mother, Mrs. Nannie A. Rogers, and most recently by her sister, Mrs. Adelaide Gafke; but she has done everything that could be expected of her and has worked with others to the end that they may have oppor- tunities to round out their lives through honest work in an atmosphere of freedom of thinking.
