The duties of Mr. George Boyle fall into three categories: bursar, veterans ' affairs, and materiel. As bursar, Mr. Boyle collects activity fees and manages the financial affairs of the college. He handles veterans ' activities and problems. Equally important is Mr. Boyle ' s job of handling the physical necessi- ties of the school. In spite of the many problems encountered in his department, Mr. Boyle is pleased to be back after serving his country in the U. S. Navy. GEORGE W. BOYLE, M.A. Miss Louise Robinson, CTC ' s patient Dean of Students, is a remarkable person. Anyone else in Miss Robinson ' s position would be quick and short-tempered, but our Dean is only quick. First there is pre-registration for those not coming out right the first time. This makes a full program for Miss Robinson, and we, the student body, would like to thank her for all her help. LOUISE C. ROBINSON, M.A. Jlj, fi afi ntLniMralion As Registrar and Director of Personnel, Mrs. Emma Fleer MuUer has many responsibilities. Among her duties are: orientation of Freshmen, counseling, assembling data for pre- registration, and compiling the school catalog. Her work also includes checking records, class cards and lists, evaluating and issuing transcripts, and cooperating with the Board of Exam- iners regarding admissions and withdrawals. It is easy to see why Mrs. Muller is one of the busier persons at CTC. EMMA FLEER MULLER, B.S. Directing activities for both Chicago Teachers College and Wilson Junior College, Miss Mary Calnan emerges from a deluge of parties and dances as a gracious and efficient worker. Every day throngs of students dash into room 204A asking for permission to hold various types of social activities and meetings. It is not possible to grant all requests, but Miss Calnan is friendly and considerate to all. MARY M. CALNAN, M.A.

JAMES I. SWEARINGEN ACTING PRESIDENT CTC is fortunate in having as Presi- dent so understanding a person as Mr. James I. Swearingen. Despite his diffi- cult task of heading administration of both Chicago Teachers College and Wilson Junior College, Mr. Swearingen somehow finds time to assist the faculty and the students with their individual problems. As one of the first persons in the school to advocate the highly success- ful faculty-student council meetings, he has gained a reputation for democratic administration which might be envied by any college president. The College can look forward to continued progress under his guidance.

C Cll ucaiion This year the Education Department has had the task of revising the practice teaching sched- ule from one year to one semester. The course, Principles of Teaching was substituted for a semester of practice teaching. Mrs. Margaret Williams and Mr. Ogden Glasow were added to the staff to help the practicing students, and Mrs. Mary Guilbault and Mr. Coleman Hewitt returned to the department. The regulars in the Education Department were kept busy observing one of the principles of education — that of belonging to extra-cur- ricular groups. Dr. Geyer, while acting as secretary for the Chicago Pedegogical Club, managed to write two articles for School and Society. Mr. Thompson, chairman of the Edu- cation Committee of the City Club of Chicago, and Mr. Williams, a member of the Northern Illinois Superintendents ' Round Table together with Mr. Geyer, are members of PDK, an hon- orary education society.
