Besides counseling, doing personnel work with women on campus, Dean Reeverts spends her hours attending meetings of Alcor Society, Womens Activity League, the house board, Panhellenic Board and various other women's committees. Also entailed in her work is the promotion of a social program on Hopes Cam- pus. Miss Reeverts acts as the campus hostess to out-of-town guests. The Dean of Women, along with Deans Hol- lenbach and Hinga, helped carry the adminis- trative burden this year in Dr, Lubbers' ab- sence. Milton L. Hinga The most important thing about my job is the amount of help I may be to men students on campus, to solve problems and have some- one to talk to. Besides the most important thing in the stren- uous task of overseer for Hopes 750 men, Dean Milton fBudl Hinga assists President Lubbers in his student relationships and shoulders the unpleasant duty of dealing with chapel and class cuts. The office of the Dean of Men is always open to fellows on campus. Mr, Hinga also has charge of the interfraternity council and housing of men students. Dean Hinga has been at Hope since l93l and has officially been Dean since l945.
