OUR PRESIDENT . ■ ■ During the two years that Dr. K. C. Leebrick has acted as president of the university, his unassuming friendliness, his keen sense of responsibility, and his sincere interest, not only in Kent itself, but in each student, have made him a popular prexy. His knowledge of educational problems and his interest in his special field, the Far East, makes him an authority sought after by students and organizations alike. The task confronting any president of a growing university is one re- quiring infinite tact and patience. Students and faculty both look to him for advice and as a person to whom they may express their grievances. Moreover, he must be cooperative in his dealings with others. Dr. Leebrick meets all these requirements. His genial smile is known to all both on and off the campus.
