W. H. SUMRALL, Ph.D. C 0 L L E G Handicapped by innumerable difficulties as well as added work because of loss of pro- fessors, student unrest due to the uncertainties confronting them in war time, and a new co- educational system, the faculty has rendered an outstanding performance this year. In spite of added responsibilities many have found time to give to student activities. As to departments and activities they are: Dr. W. H. Sumrall, Dean of Men and Professor of Psychology; B. R. Albritton, Bursar; M. P. L. Berry, former President of Hillman College, now Director of Publicity and Public Relations; Dr. S. E. Cran- fill, Professor of Economics and Sociology; ri LI Dean of Men [ 10 ]

D. M. NELSON, P H . D LL.D. • Realistically facing the exegencies of a changing world, Dr. Nelson has thoughtfully guided Mississipi College into a new pro- gram by choosing the best from a conflicting social order and incorporating those things into our school system. Quiet dignity and Christian consideration describe his attitude toward the inevitable administrative problems which have arisen during this period of transition from an all men’s school to a co- educational institution. Missisippi College will continue to be what it has been in the past as long as it has leadership of this calibre.
