DEAN HOWARD L. HODGKINS Dean Hodgkins, the only member of the faculty who attended the Uni- versity when it was situated on “College Hill 5 literally grew up with the University. To Dean Hodgkins goes the further distinction of being the only alumnus who ever acted as President of the University, serving in that capacity during the period between the resignation of President Collier and the election of President Lewis. As Secretary of the Alumni Association for thirty years and Presi- dent thereof for two years. Dean Hodgkins was the moving spirit of the organization. Because of his un- faltering service and untiring efforts, he justly merits his rank as Dean of the University. ELMER LOUIS KAYSER Another one of the familiar figures without which the University would never be the same, is Elmer Louis Kayser, Secretary of the University, Director of the Summer School, and Associate Professor of History, We point with pride to Secretary Kayser as a George Washington Uni- versity product. Graduating from Western High School in 19 4. Mr. Kayser received his A.B. from our Alma Mater in 1917 and a year later took his Master’s degree. Since that time he has been con- nected with the University in one capacity or another, a friend to the entire student body, and an ardent well-wisher of the University. Pa$r 21
