Richard D. Pierce Dean of Emerson College The duties of the Dean of Emerson College, the responsibilities of counse lor and friend, and the desire and capacity to arouse intellectual curiosity, are three great tasks. To do any of these, one must go beyond the mere boundaries of administrator, advisor, and instructor. To do all three of these requires a man with an abiding interest in and loyalty to Emerson, a deep concern for both the intellectual and emotional growth of the students of Emerson, and a sincere dedication to teaching. Everyone must agree that these attributes are rarely found in one man. We, the Class of 1963, have found such a man within the limits of Emerson College. It is to this man. Dean Richard D. Pierce, that we give our whole-hearted appreciation for his devotion and loyalty to us.

COUNSELLORS MRS. RUTH SOUTHWICK MAXFIELD Counsellor of Comen During our four years as Emerson students, we have turned to Ruth Maxfield and Harold Nickerson many times. Each time they have greeted us with open mind and heart. Now, that our four years at Emerson are drawing to a close, we would like to thank them for all they have done for us, no matter how little or great the deed. We shall remember them always. We can never fully repay our debt of gratitude to these two wonderful people, but we can say a humble thank-you” for all that they have done for us. A year does not pass in the life of a college student that some type of problem does not arise. To listen to these problems, to council, to advise; these are the tasks of the Dean of Women and the Dean of Men. I 16 MR. HARRY N. NICKERSON, JR. Counsellor of Men
