JJ-v E5-+-H I I The activities of Goshen College's administrators speak of the broadness of their experience. President Mininger showed a wide range of participa- tion in the church and in higher education. Second semester he began a four months' sabbatical leave, part of which was spent in the Southern United States. Dur- ing this time Dean Carl Kreider replaced him as acting president. Carl Kreider spent the previous year in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, as a Fulbright Lecturer in the university there. He lectured in the Held of economics, being well re- ceived and carrying on valuable dialogue with the stu- dents. His experience also included travel in 20 African and European countries. At home, Dean of Men, Russel A. Liechty completed his doctoral research in education. His work helped to validate an instrument used in selecting people for coun- selor education programs, by ascertaining the effect of environment on the instrument. Working under the National Council of Churches, Atlee Beechy spent part of his summer in Mississippi. His activities included registering voters for the Freedom Democratic Party and interviewing educators in high schools and universities. New to the campus was Ed Stoltzfus, Pastor to Stu- dents. His mixture of Christian faith, intellect and humor added up to an enthusiastic contribution in the SCA and daily chapel. J. B. Shenk, B.A., Th.B.

Necessary to the good interest of Goshen College as the hand is to the body, these members of the Goshen body receive comparatively little notice or distinction. As Director of College Relations, Robert Kreider acted as liaison between the students and the constitu- ency. Organizing the fund drive for Goshen's future development, he began by planning meetings with com- munity leaders and publicizing in local newspapers, alumni newsletters and the Gospel Herald. The ob- ject of the most immediate financial need was the proposed 31.000000 library. John Zook joined Leland Weldy as admissions coun- selor. In addition to visiting nearly 150 high schools throughout the United States and talking to many prospective students, they also planned two campus Open House programs for high school seniors, one at Homecoming and another during the spring. Retuming after a summer f1963j as physician in the Fernheim Colony in Paraguay, another summer in Europe and a vear of postdoctoral study at the Uni- versity of Michigan, H. Clair Amstutz resumed his position as college physician. John H. Liechty began as director of the newly created Office of Alumni Relations. Specifically, he was involved in serving regional alumni clubs and aid- ing with the continuing education of the alumni. He also worked in the field of alumni giving, setting 875,000 as the 1964-65 goal. t 5 . Assistant Head Residents: Jim Alderfer, Evelyn Zuercher, John Zook.
