WHO ' S WHO Aniong Students in American Universities and Colleges TO BE NOMINATED and accepted for iiicliisiiiii in Who ' s Who Amonp liidcnls ill liiirrican Uiiivemitien (iiid Colli ' i e.i is tlic culmination of all college honors and achievements. The students are chosen hy faculty ballot conscientiously and impartially after their qualifications are carefully considered. The qualities which determine the selection of students for this honor are character, scholarship, leadership in extra-curricular activities, and potentiality for future usefulness to business and society. The idea for creating ojie national l)asis of recognition for students devoid of politics, initiation fees, and dues, was conceived more than twelve years ago, and the first book was published in 193t-3,5 with 250 colleges listed. Today almost (i,()()0 students who are most likely to be successful in business and later life are selected from approximately fi.50 colleges and universities. From the basic idea then Who ' s Who has developed into an integral part of college and business life, serving as an incentive for students, a means of compensation for what they have already achieved, as a standard of measurement, and as a recommenda- tion to the business world. Students who were selected this year to liavc their biographies appear in tlie 1945-4 ' () edition are Emerson Wliatley, Edwin Daniel, Thomas Horner, Earl Danieley, Bill Clapp, Fred Register, Elizabeth Parker, Margaret Rawls, Martha McDaniel, Hilda Malone, and Betty Bob Stone. .Junius Peedin and Jessie Thurecht, wlio were listed last year, were also incln lcd in tliis year ' s ]Hil)lieatioii. flapp, Daniel, Danieley, Horner, Malone, McDaniel, Parker, Peedin, Rawls, Stone, Thurecht, Whatley, Register.
