For many years Birmingham-Southern has operated, and correctly so, under the theory rhnt maintaining an able faculty should take precedence over tf a construction of an imposing physical plant. More than half of the sixty-nine faculty mem- bers hold doctorate degrees, and they average approximately fifteen years of teaching experience. Unlike many institutions, Southern places classroom performance and interest in the pupil ahead of research and publication. The college ' s major problem is not recruiting, but holding, able faculty members, since Southern has become a ' hunting ground for schools from other parrs of the country. Editor Susan McCartney 19

President and Mrs. Phillips entertain with a faculty tea Dr. Howard Mitchell Phillips, Sr., is serving his first year as the sixth president of Birmingham-Southern College. He has filled the positions of professor of biology and dean of the graduate school, Emory University, and president of Alabama College, Montevallo. Dr. Phillips received his B.S. and M.A. degrees from Wake Forest College, and his Ph.D. from the University of Virginia. He is a member of Phi Beta Kappa, Omicron Delta Kappa, Sigma Xi, and Pi Kappa Alpha. In his public statements, Dr. Phillips has avoided lip-service to highly idealistic goals in favor of the more realistic goals of money, expansion, and recruitment. In referring to his Master Plan , Dr. Phillips made the fol- lowing statement, June, 1963, immediately after he assumed his office. Our assignment will not be easy; it will require excep- tionally hard work, dedication, cooperation and a tre- mendous amount of money. It will demand an under- standing attitude and a zealous commitment on the part of all of us. We shall begin immediately to pro|ect out new goals. Southern for many years has had sufficent goals, aims, and mottoes; now it is hoped that under the leadership of Dr. Phillips she will receive the physical means to make the ideal a reality. President ' s Home. 21
