MacLean came from the State De- partment of Education, where he was in- spector of schools, to become head of the Moorhead State Teachers College. The first 1 year of his presidency the total enrollment was T 516 students, some of whom were taking sub-collegiate work. 210 students were graduated inthe spring of 1924, none of them being degree candidates, since the four-year course was then unknown in the state. Then there were 33 faculty members. This year the enrollment reached a high water mark of 684 in the winter term, all of whom were on the collegiate level. 216 students will be graduated this spring, 54 of these receiving degrees. Now there are 42 I'rv.vidm1t R. B. Mlwlmun faculty members. President MacLean has guided the College through reorganization on the four-year level, Fire, and depression, and as a result of this leadership, 1933 Ends the College second to none among the educational institutions of the Northwest. That which in the background keeps the College running so smoothly is the State Teachers College Board, composed of a resident director from each of the six teachers' colleges of Minnesota, two members at large, and the state com- missioner ot education. The Moorhead repre- sentative is Dr. Gilbert L. Gosslee, appointed in 1931. The state felt the loss when Mr. j. Nl. McConnell, commissioner since 1919, died April 29 of this year. He had served as secretary of the Board. His funeral services were attended by Board members and by the presidents of the teachers' colleges. NVith Mr. E. M. Phillips, long a member of the state department, named to fill the vacancy, the Board will carry on its work, passing on all general policies for the teachers' colleges. According to President MacLean, M r. Phil- lips is the logical man to fill the position, hav- ing had a great deal of experience in planning Curriculums. Dr, Gillmrt L.
