Dean of Women t ' V Miss Agnes Husband Dean of Women THE office of the Dean of Women is indispensable to the life of the University, not only because of the personal counsel given to University women, but also because of the supervision of all parties given by student organizations and of all group activities. Women students are allowed to go only to those parties for which the University is responsible. Furthermore, the Dean of Women has charge of the employment of women students and of women ' s boarding houses. She gives particular attention to W. S. G. A., W. A. A., Women ' s Forum, Mortar Board, and the Y. W. C. A. Page 21 i A

Dean of Men John R. Dyer Dean oj Men THE ideal relationship between the student body and the faculty is un- doubtedly to be found in the classroom. Every person who has ever gone to school or college thinks gratefully of the fine inspiration brought to his life by the truly great teachers he has known. The recent phenomenal growth of student bodies has created problems of college life outside the classroom almost as important and certainly as difficult of solution as those within it. Among these are health and housing, vocational guid- ance, personal counsel, campus activities, social affairs and financial aid. The office of Dean of Men is not a supervisory one. Indeed, the supervision of twenty-eight hundred live college men would be an impossible task. Fortu- nately, it is an unnecessary one. The office is meant rather to be a friendly headquarters for the men of the University, where there is a genuine interest in such problems as those mentioned above and adequate time to help with their solution. Only as students turn naturally to it for counsel, will it reach its greatest usefulness. P f»0 A

The CoUeee of Liberal = iS il J. G. Brandt Dean East Ad THE aim of the College during the first two years is to train the student in various types of fundamental courses, thus enabling him to lay a foundation for training in some special field during his junior and senior years, either in a professional school or in a major department of the College itself. The purpose of the College is well stated in the following: The remarkable development of these technical curricula in recent years has been based very largely on the progress which has been made in the basic sciences underlying these fields of instruction The combination of applied science intended not only to prepare young men and women to succeed in some definite technical work, but also to lead a successful and well-rounded life.
