1 AN Did you ever wonder who spends hours laboriously copying down your grades on your report card? The answer is Mrs. McLean. However, copying grades on report cards is only one of her many tasks. Mrs. McLean spends most of her time keeping the general ledger, sending bills, buying books for classes, and helping prevent utter chaos in the general state of school affairs. She has the essential job of handling payrolls, receiving and recording donations, and taking care of the minute books for the Board of Trustees meetings. Somehow, she finds the time to teach typing classes and run the bookstore. Mrs. McLean has been a real asset in keeping business affairs straight here at Harpeth Hall since the school was founded. Now, with the enlargement of her staff, the number of her duties has decreased; yet she is still an important member of our staff. MRS. NICHOLS By her great industry and hard work Mrs. Polly Nichols, Director of Alumnae, keeps our career- oriented graduates well-informed of improvements and developments on the Harpeth Hall campus. This is achieved for the most part by the public ation of the Harpeth Hall Alumnae News. Always wearing a smile, Mrs. Nichols works in Souby Hall with Miss Herring handling alumnae activities. Without the dedication shown by Mrs. Nichols toward her work, the graduates of previous years would not be able to keep so alive their memories of Harpeth Hall.

MISS HENSLEY There are some members of our faculty who seem to have an infinite number of jobs. One of the most important of Miss Hensley ' s is that of chief coordinator of the Winterim Program. This job involves a tremendous amount of work, for she must make arrangements for all classes and trips and plan individually with those who choose an independent study or decide to pursue a career interest. Along with this job, she must shoulder the burden of a disciplinarian role which comes along with her sponsorship of the Student Council. In addition, she teaches a class of political science. Despite some conflicts because of disciplinary situations and the tight time schedule she must keep, Miss Hensley maintains a friendly relationship with the students at Harpeth Hall. MISS HERRING As Director of Finance and Development, Miss Herring has supervised the campaign to raise funds for the new classrooms and for the new building complex nearing completion below the Ward- Belmont Garden. She took the I.D. pictures of each of us this year and helped us with our magazine sale. Such responsibilities as budget administration and building maintenance occupy a large part of Miss Herring ' s time also. Harpeth Hall is certainly lucky to have such an efficient and hard-working member on the staff.
