m Working hard for the betterment and progress of Monticello is her Vice-President, Dr. Gail P. Myers. Besides being Vice-President, Dr. Myers also supervises the Public Relations Department and is the director of our Program for Progress. All of these jobs require a great deal of time and knowledge and makes Dr. Myers one of the busiest persons on campus. Despite his heavy schedule, however, he always seems to find time to stop and talk to any student who is in need of his advice. 20

The President of Monticcllo, Dr. Duncan Wim-press, is perhaps the most inspiring and active member of the Monti family. Through his efforts since he came to Monticello in 1959, Dr. Wimpress has greatly raised our status among the nation's colleges for women. During these years the additions to Monticello’s curriculum and equipment and the improvement in its admissions policy have been tremendous. Aside from his regular duties, Dr. Wimpress and other members of his family can be seen handing out cokes at his home, at a Cabin party, or dining with the students.
