Board of Trustees. I lie hoard ol I itistec-s l haldwin-Wallaec College, consisting of forty-three- elected members and two mcmbeis ex-olficio, meets twice each veai. Flu- luiulions ol the hoard in the interim Ik-- tween meetings arc carried on l v the Fxecutive Committee. Invest- merit Committee, standing and ad lux commit lees. I lie members ol the hoard ir prescti I broad and diverse inteiesls. In the follow- mg lassifte at ions there are one 01 more board members represent- ed: attorneys, bankets, business executives, contractors, doctors, educators, housewives, judges, ministers, newspapermen, .scien- tists. This background ol varied ex|K-rience brings to the hoard a very intelligent approach to the many problems which come to the Trustees lor consideration. I lie overall Inm (ion ol the hoard ol Trustees is to see that the purposes and objectives ol the College are well defined and car- ried out. In tins connection the hoard, as a pan ol its duties, must assure itscll (hat the educational standards ol the College are maintained, including the seeming of an excellent faculty and providing adecpiale facilities for the mental, physical and spiiitual development of the students. Also, it must make sure that (lie necessary financial support of tlu- College is obtained and that the affairs ol the College are administered properly. I lie hoard must .11 all times work in close cooperation with and in the interest of tlie Administration. Faculty, Alumni, and Students. The Tiusiees are selected, not lot the pui| ose- of conferring an honor upon them. Imi rather on the basis ol the contribution of service which they can make to the development of the College. We are fortunate in having a group ol capable I'rustees with such broad interests, devoted to making haldwin-Wallaec- a highly rated Christian lilieral at is colle ge-. IH. ItcdilM it-ci.
