TALIAFERRO Postmistress FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION FROM freshman to senior, every student is in constant con- tact with those who direct and influence all the happen- ings of our college life in a multitude of ways. The academic pursuits of the classroom, the social activities which round out the serious side, the physical education which is particu- larly important in the defense of the nation, and the business transactions necessary in the conduct of affairs ... all receive the attention of a well-trained, experienced faculty and ad- ministration. Rarely a day passes without the necessity (by no means unpleasant) of a visit to Miss Bugg ' s office. As Reg- istrar of the College, she is our consultant on such important and perplexing matters as courses, curricula, and hours of credit. The treasurer ' s office is carefully supervised by Miss Hiner, who minimizes financial worries of the treasurers of organizations. Miss Mary, dignified and gracious, is Head of the Home.

Wynne directed the Department of Education, with Mr. Holton, Miss Camper, Mr. Coyner, Dr. Swertfeger, and Mr. Johnson assisting in the fields of philosophy and psychology. We progressed from psychology and its theories of learning, to the practicalities of education in the element- ary and secondary schools, and from there to the thought- provoking and disputable philosophical theories of Bode, James, Dewey, and others.
