Their responsibilities and activities are many and varied. Since the influx of many new students on campus, especially during the post war period, their tasks have been doubled. Many new and various accommodations had to be supplied, such as additional housing facilities, staff members, personnel, and classroom equipment, since the college has grown to six hundred and fifty students this year. The Board assumes the responsibility of bettering the edu- cation of each student. This year, with the retirement of Mr. Paul A. Jans, the chairmanship was accepted by Reverend Erwin R. Koch, of St. Paul, Minnesota. With the retirement of Dr. Lehmann as college president, the Board had to choose a successor. They have done well in choosing Dr. H. W. Dinkmeyer of Bethany Church of Chicago, for his deep sincerity and rich friendliness have already won the admiration and support of the entire student body. Although a new Business Manager has not been secured, the Board has placed Dr. Lehmann and Dr. Dinkmeyer temporarily in that position, in their respective terms. Today, an even closer and friendlier relationship between the Board and the students has been attained. Just as the college grows in standing and in knowl- edge, so too, does the Board of Directors grow in their endeavor to administer to the needs of every individual on campus. 15
