It is a large organization, with numerous branches influencing the adjustment and develop- ment of the student. Mr. Milton L. Hinga as Dean of Men probably comes into personal contact with more students on the campus than any other man. Whether a student's problem is scholastic, social, disciplinary, or purely personal, he can be assured of a sympathetic and understanding listener in Dean Hinga. Dr. Elizabeth Lichty, the Dean of Women, is the personal supervisor of all the women students, either off or on the campus. Interviews with the Dean of Women are given for personal or disciplinary reasons. Popular Miss Laura Boyd, as Director of Student Affairs, schedules the social calendar for the year. Her task is an arduous one, but her pleasing manner makes it a pleasure to confer with her. Sympathetic and professional assistance is given by the Registrar, Rev. P. Hinkamp. As Director of Public Relations Mr. Clyde Geerlings is a popular individual, and he can be seen every day moving about the campus looking for interesting subjects for his camera. Dean of Admissions is Prof. A. Tim- mer, a former instructor in Latin. His winning smile has won for him.many new friends at Hope.
