ASSOCIATE DEAN JOHN H. PRIME Our Genial Financier MISS DICMBSKA AND DEAN PRIME Those who were fortunate enough to meet Associate Dean john H. Prime as undergraduates, will long remember his genial smile and his sincere desire to help whenever possible. Alumni who participated in this year's Alumni Day Home- coming, have him to thank for handling the program and making the event such an outstanding success. The Alumni hold Dean Prime in high esteem as attested to by the dozens of letters he received, congratulating him on his appointment as Associate Dean. His former students re- member the days when they sat in his classes, and write him often to remind him that he will never be forgotten as an ex- acting but able and interesting pedagogue. Dean Prime's administrative duties involve control of the budget and financial matters of the School of Commerce. His long and successful career in the field of finance, began even before 1922, the year he graduated from NYU's Vlfashington Square College. He was Chairman of the Finance Committee of his Senior Class and Chairman of the Frosh-Soph Com- mittee in his undergraduate days. After graduation, he became president of the Graduate School of Arts and Science Alumni Association. In February, 1923, Dean Prime was instructing classes in economics at the School of Commerce. He began to teach finance in 1928. A series of promotions in the following eleven years, culminated with the attainment of the title of Professor of Finance. While acting as head of the investment division of the Banking and Finance Department, Dean Prime reorgan- ized the courses and is responsible, in great part, for the pres- ent efficiency of the department. For twenty years after September, 1925, Dean Prime also held the position of Director of Admissions, for the School of Commerce. His textbook Investment Analysis was pub- lished in l946 and is an excellent source for data on the prin- ciples behind the theory and practice of investment. 13
