May we never forget the happy hours that we have spent together in learning through theory and practice to develop insight. It is our humble wish that the 1955 CREST will be a reminder of this rewarding and enriching experience and of the ideals that we have developed.

d dication Since Mills as a college community holds high the ideal of personal integrity and the development of women as individuals, students of Mills could wish for no better example for these aims, or no better friend that Anna L. Rose Hawkes. 1955 marks Dean Hawkes' tenth year at Mills as the Dean of Students. During this time We have known a very deep respect for her as a person and for the prin- ciples and perceptive opinions which she holds. Dean Hawkes has coupled with success achievements of thought and action. Campus-wide, state-wide, or nation-wide, hers have always been valuable con- tributions. She has been an enthusiastic advisor of student government. In her own field of educational research, Mrs. Hawkes has held a staff position on the Carnegie Foundation for the Advancement of Teaching. She has served as president of the National Association of Deans of Women and as vice-president of the California Association of Women Deans and Vice-Principals. Recently she was re-appointed by President Eisenhower to a three-year term on the United States Advisory Com- mission on Educational Exchange. This spring she was elected national president of the American Association of University VVomen. This is necessarily a small list of the positions and honors accorded her. With this tenth year mark of 1955, Dean Hawkes is retiring from her position at Mills. Because of her years of service and outstanding activity to her country and to her field, we at Mills lind an even deeper appreciation of, and gratitude for, the experience of Welcoming her as a close friend and participant in our community life. As a very humble expression of our love and respect for Mrs. Hawkes and a sin- cere 'iGod speedy for the years to come, we dedicate to her the 1955 CREST. ANNA L. ROSE HAWKES
