GARWOOD. DR. JOHN D.: BURNETT, DR. RICHARD E.: Dean of Faculty Executive Asst, to the President Administration and Faculty CODER. DR. RALPH V.: Dean of Graduate Division Behind every successful college or university is a good administration— executives of ability and dedication, working tirelessly for the betterment of each student and the college as a whole. Each executive, no matter what die scope of his administra- tive powers, bears responsibilities in common with his associates. All are charged with formulation of policies, setting and maintaining academic standards, establishing the budget and operating an institution which continues to grow at a rapid pace. The faculty senate, the council of division chairman, the various committees and boards, the informal coffee sessions and the individual conferences play an important part in the joint procedure. The administrators keep Fort Hays State running smoothly, serving the youth of Western Kansas. 20

Coliseum Houses Varied Offices, Services, Classes Sheridan Coliseum, home of the Tiger teams, is the most versatile, all-purpose building on the campus. It houses a gymnasium, executive and administrative offices, divisions of music and health, physical educa- tion and recreation, a radio station and the student health center. Music floats (and blares) from the third and fourth floors; KFHS transmits programs to campus build- ings and, in the studios on the second floor, special and regular radio and television presentations are bom. Emergency care, health counseling and dispen- sary treatment bring every student to the health center at some time or other. The women ' s gym, arena and the swimming pool are in almost constant use for sports events and physical education classes. Between times, there are assemblies, shows, professional entertainers and performers pre- sented in the Artists and Lecture Series, conventions and other events which strain the facilities of the building, long conceded to be outgrown and inadequate. Built in 1917, the Coliseum was believed to be a monstrosity which could never be filled. The fallacy in this belief was proved long ago. College nurses Mrs. Frances Cook and Mrs. Inez Baxter give a student a flu immunization shot. Tigers meet their opponents in the arena, where they have compiled few losses and many victories. To those who have been de- feated here, the Tiger home court is known as the “Snake Pit.” 19
