Every student has at some- time received correspondence from Mr. Rendahl, Dean of Admissions. The chief purposes of the Of- fice of Admissions are attracting and selecting stu- dents.

Handling those long lines of registering students each September and Ianuary constitutes a part of Registrar Dale's job. The business side of administration is directed by the controller, Mr. Smaby. Coordinator of public relations, Dale Mitchell, arrived on campus in 1955. As of this year he heads the Oiiice of Public Relations which is no longer combined with the Oliice of Admissions. Another basement oflice in Old Main is that of Development Where Mr. Larson, general secretary, Works to make continuous improvement of the college possible.
