Dean Raymond M. Cook From the campus of the Chicago Teachers College over twenty thousand persons have gone forth whose mission and profession it was to gladly teach . The contributions of this large group to education in Chicago and Cook County are such as to cause any present or former student or faculty member to be proud of his own C.T.C. The great and glorious traditions of past administra- tions, that tenacious hold upon jjermanent and certain lasting values, and the constant renewal of spirit that must come from working with Chicago ' s finest young people--all these are pledges that the institution will meet its new and difficult challenges as they arise. Today ' s college students are of a generation that has never known normal times. One crisis after another crowds their memories, economic, social. military, or diplomatic. And no one can promise or with confidence predict a cessation in this pro- cession of critical problems. I do predict that today ' s young people will do a better job than have their elders. I hope that all of C.T.C s present students will rally to the task of preparing a still later generation to meet its critical problems; in a word I hope that they will become committed to the profession of teaching. Somewhere a social science instructor must have told them about man ' s four social wishes: recogni- tion, response, new experience, and security. After nearly forty years of teaching I can say that this profession has its splendid potential rewards in all four of those directions; yes, even in security. Will you join us ?

ADMINISTRATION Emma Fleer Muller Louise C. Robinson Mary Calnan The faculty and students at Chicago Teachers College are fortunate in having such efficient individuals as Mrs. Muller, Miss Robinson and Miss Calnan to handle the ma in problems of administration that are attendant to caring for 850 students and 50 faculty members. Mrs. Muller as Registrar and Director of Personnel has more than ably executed her multitudinous tasks of orientation of Freshmen, checking class records, compiling the school catalog, taking care of admissions and withdrawals, and many other duties. Miss Robinson as Dean of students is well remembered by each student at Chicago Teachers College for her very thoughtful consideration of the individual student at registration time. No problem of lunch, work, or a lost course, however exasperat- ing to the student, is insoluble to Miss Robinson who manages to do the impossible with 850 student programs. Miss Mary Calnan as Director of Activities for both Chicago Teachers College and Wilson Junior College is a social worker in every sense of the word. To Mary falls the responsibility of organization and supervision of literally hundreds of social func- tions from tea parties to the Senior prom. The many successful events of the past year are a testimonial to the hard work and ability of our director.
