| E. B. Hatcher, B.S. DEAN OF MEN Mr. E. B. Hatcher is Berry’s newest Dean, but he has, in bffect, become an “old hand” as the Dean of Men. A good ; example of his ability is that he has somehow managed to ygsubdue the noise in T.B. Hall, an almost insurmountable task. D ean Hatcher is to be congratulated on a task well done in his f first year at Berry. | Mr. Hatcher attended Middle Tennessee State College and syeceived his B.S. in math from George Peabody College for Teachers. Mr. Hatcher has continued to attend Peabody while It oing his graduate work. | Before coming to Berry last summer, Mr. Hatcher held two ‘pther positions. He was Elementary School Principal in David- pon County, Tennessee for ten years. He later became Com- ,jnandant of Cadets at Columbia Military Academy in Colum- nia, Tennessee, remaining there for eighteen years. Betty Barbour, M.A. DEAN OF WOMEN Probably one of the best known and most widely respected women at Berry College is our Dean of Women, Miss Betty Barbour. Miss Barbour received her A.B. from the University of Georgia after attending Northwestern University and Western Michigan College. English and psychology were her majors. She then went to Florida State University to receive her M.A. In 1939 Miss Barbour first came to Berry as an instructor in English at the Girls’ High School then existing here. From 1942 until 1946 she served in the Berry College English De- partment. Miss Barbour then taught at Catawba College from 1947 until 1952. Since 1952 we have been fortunate in having Miss Barbour as our Dean of Women. The girls that have graduated from Berry College are the finest proof of Miss Barbour’s ability. Her leadership and “friendly persuasion” has been and remains a major guiding force at Berry.

John R. Timmerman, Ph.D. ACADEMIC DEAN A most vigorous man in seeing that Berry’s academic record remains high in the srhall college class is our Academic Dean, Dr. Timmerman. Dean Timmerman received his A.B. from Furman Univer- sity in 1931 where he graduated summa cum laude. He re- ceived his M.A. from Duke University and also married in 1938. Dr. Timmerman was drafted in 1943 after teaching at Averett Junior College and N. C. State. In 1946 he returned to teaching at Furman University and taught there until going to the University of Texas where he received his Ph.D. Dr. Tim- merman then went to Louisiana College as head of the English Department in 1952. In 1956 he became Academic Dean there and remained until coming to Berry on June 1, 1960. Dr. Timmerman’s record speaks well of his academic ability and we feel fortunate in having him during our transition period into the quarter system next year. Wilbur D. Keister, Ed.D. DEAN OF STUDENTS Probably one of the busiest men on campus is Dr. Wilbur D. Keister, Berry’s Dean of Students. However, no matter how busy he is, he seems to always have time to see everyone. efle Dr. Keister received his B.S. from Miami University in 1948. He attended New Mexico Highlands for his M.A. Dr. Keister received his Ed.D. from the University of Arizona in 1959 after coming to Berry in 1957. Dr. Keister was in the U. S. Navy during World War II and participated in the initial landing at Normandy on V-Day. He was also in the Korean conflict. Popular and respected are the words describing Dr. Keister. Berry has profited greatly in having such an active man as” Dean of Students. oth A} rece Tee {dou ;
