Bethany College - Bethanian Yearbook (Bethany, WV)

Dean of Students Every college takes so much pride in past history and long-established traditions that I sometimes fear there is the danger of overlooking the richness and significance of the present. . . . This year of 1951-1952 has been one of the most important years in the history of Bethany Col- lege because YOU have been here. . . . YOU are the Bethany College of the present — as the living, breathing, reality of Alma Mater. The next year will also be im- portant because another group of students — some from this year, of course, remaining — will be here. The joy and the glory of a college rests in the fact that it is a place where young men and young women, mindful of the past, but living happily and eagerly in the present, are preparing to march with strong confidence and purpose into the future. I salute the student body of 1951-1952 because YOU ARE BETHANY COLLEGE this year— and I pledge again my sincere devotion to your best interests and your highest ideals. FORREST H. KIRKPATRICK Dean of Students Dean of Faculty Dr. B. R. Weimer, Dean of the Faculty and head of the Department of Biology; also known as the Great White Father. He believes in the small college and that at Bethany the job is so to teach and to advise that young men and young women shall be fitted not only for making a living but for living a well-rounded full life. He delights to point with pride to the number of Bethanians who are High on the Scroll of Honor and Fame.

MISS ELEANOR TYLER is one of the most efficient associate deans of students any college ever had. She is always more than willing to please every Bethanian when possible. MISS ELIZ. ' VBETH BELT is the mainstay of Kirk ' s office. She and her efficient staff tabulate quality points, number of hours, grades, etc. These are but a few of her many, many jobs. We all marvel at the efficiency with which Miss Belt runs the office. In Meinoriatn The passing of Mr. Newton W. Evans on Febru- ary 4, 1952, saddened the hearts of each and every Bethanian. He had spent quite a few years as Bursar and was just recently elected Treasurer of Bethany College. Although all those who know and loved Mr. Evans were saddened and bereived by his death, they all know that: He is not dead ... he is just away.
