ADMINISTRATION, AND THE FACULTY WELCOMED US ELIZABETH LICHTY Dean of Women MILDRED SGHUPPERT THOMAS E. WELNIERS ALBERT TIMMER Secretary to the President Registrar Director of Counseling Elizabeth Lichty is a little woman with a big job. As dean of women she has to handle the social, academic, and personal problems of the coeds. She is advisor of the W, A. L., W. A. A., and Alcor, as well as being in charge of the Voorhees and Van Vleck dorms. She is professor of French and co-advisor of the French Club. This doesn't seem to fill up her time so she helps the girls organize their Poise Club and knits for relaxation. Dean Lichty is a graduate of Lake Forest College, and received her A.M. and Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin. The role of Prexy's secretary is played by auburn-haired Mildred Shuppert. Her pleasant smile makes sunshine in the otlice even on rainy days. She collects tuitiong answers questions for the faculty, the student body, and the army, and keeps the main ofiice running smoothly. Her talent for keeping track of everyone is not confined to the campus, for she is the Alumni Association secretary and knows where our grads are located. She is organist at Third Reformed Church and plays an active part in church circles. Although Millie is fond of fishing and taking movies, her wartime hobby is writing a letter a day to someone in the armed service. Brusque Thomas Welmers is the registrar. However, he is better known on the campus as Thossy. He teaches the pre-sem students their Alpha, Beta, Gamma's, and gives them instruction in turkey carving at his annual Thanksgiving dinner. Even the intricate schedules for the army do not faze Thossy. l-le put them in working order just as he has been doing with the civilian schedules for years. He is firm with Freshmen who want to take all the courses offered, and he gives the final word on upper'classmen's curriculum. Professor Wfelmers has an A.B. degree from Hopeg B.D. from Princeton, and did graduate work there as well as at the University of Berlin. He like sto spend his spare time reading philosophy and theology, but once in a while he is caught with hammer and nails trying his luck at carpentry. Acting Director of Student Personnel is friendly Professor Albert Timmer. Latin in his specialty, but he also includes a little math. Students find him ready and willing to give them guidance in personal problems including income tax. He. too, is a Hope Grad. He received his master's degree from the University of Michigan, and has studied at Northwestern university and the University of Chi- cago. Reading history and biography is one of his hobbies, but golf is his specialty. Michigan weather doesn't keep him from playing at least eighteen holes every month of the year. ,- x ri fm 1 I lik SQ3-79 ' 11
