P' Harold Smisor Henry Harvey James Colaw Director of Cllllfffl Relalions Director of News Bureau Financial Secretary A new member of the Public Relations Department is Harold Srnisor, who has just completed his first year as Director of Church Relations. Serving in this capacity, Mr. Smisor performs a variety of functions. Generally he is responsible for keeping the Friends' churches informed of the needs and capacities of the school, By visiting the churches personally, or sending representatives, he helps to meet a great deal of the financial needs and also draws many prospective stu- dents to Friends. Henry Harvey, Director of News Bureau, has the interesting job of keeping Friends University in the public eye. Noted students, faculty or alumni activi- ties, play presentations, sports news, and unusual happenings around school all provide possible ma- terial for newspaper articles or television news shorts which would be of interest to the community. james Colaw, Financial Secretary, calls on local businessmen to acquaint them with opportunities for giving to support Christian higher education at Friends University. Although unfamiliar to many students at Friends, Mr. Colaw serves in a very im- portant capacity and is certainly deserving of our gratitude and respect. The secretaries to President Roberts, Dean Craven, and Merle Bender fwho are pictured at rightj do much to ease the strenuous schedule of these very important administrators. They arrange for appoint- ments, answer incoming calls, handle correspondence, and perform a multiplicity of duties during the course of each day. Each maintains a high level of competent assistance and grant an invaluable contri- bution to the school.

DMINI TR TIG Pictured below are the four administrators who serve under the direction of President Lowell E. Roberts. Although their duties vary within the areas they serve, each of these people are bound together by a common dedication to their work. Dr. Dorothy Craven is primarily responsible for those duties relating to educational activities. Acting in this capacity she establishes educational policies, supervises the curriculum, and arranges times and places for classes. Mr. Gerald Wlood, Comptroller, also carries many heavy responsibilities. Handling all school finances, his duties range from overseeing payroll procedures to maintaining an inventory of all school equipment. Merle Bender, Public Relations Director, serves a vital position with tireless energy and enthusiasm. The Direc- tor of Church Relations, the Alumni Director, and the Publicity Director, all operate under his direction, with each department gaining his constant attention. Friends University students frequently come in per- sonal contact with Clinton Humbolt, Personnel Director. Perhaps his earliest appearance is one which many would eliminate, since for most students this occurs during the early testing programs. Later encounters connect him with the health services, counseling, housing, and various other school services. ,V .. ,.,, H Yglfiiiiif at ,M Lgxy .
