He Measures the Task Like milestones, the college programs expand each year and at year ' s end the ceremonies of Commencement mark completion of another cycle. It ' s a time of pageantry and pomp, looking ahead and back and appraising the record. Man is a measure of all things, and his measure is judged by his peers. A former member of the Kansas Board of Re- gents has said, The head of a great college must be a benevolent despot, an autocrat. It is his personality, his qualities, his dreams that must shape to a large extent the future of an institution of higher learning.

Accreditation is vital to a college and President Cunningham has zealously guarded this seal of approval. He points with pride to full recognition by national agencies. Administrative problems increase as a college grows. Enrollment rose to nearly 2,000 by the end of the first decade of the Cunningham era, then continued to spiral, reaching 5,469 in the fall of 1968, with 250 faculty members. ABOVE: Gov. Robert Docking and LOWER RIGHT: the State Board of Re- gents represent the relation of the State of Kansas to the college. ABOVE RIGHT: On the local level, the Pres- ident works with his little cabinet, Mrs. Dollie Thomas, his secretary; Dr. Richard Burnett, his administrative as- sistant. FAR RIGHT: The President ' s re- ception, rehearsal for commencement and the event itself represent the cul- mination of a year— another milestone for students and the college. 12

Esteemed by his peers, President Cunningham is listed in Who ' s Who in America and numerous other selective directories. He has served as chairman of the Board of Directors of the Rocky Mountain Educational Lab- oratories and was national president of National Association of Intercollegiate Athletes. He was sent by the United States Department of State with a group of educators to study the educational systems in Pakistan. Fellow educators like President James McCain of Kansas State University pay tribute to the Builder President of Fort Hays State. Forsyth Library and McMindes Hall stand as recent milestones of academic and physical growth in the Cunningham era. The tranquil verdure of the campus belies the legends of barren and windswept Kansas. 14
