, IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllllllllllllllllilllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllllllllll A Illll DEAN or WOMEN l It is the purpose of the Dean of women 'IlIIll ' 'IlIllI IIllI to cooperate with other members of the facf ulty in helping the students develop so that they can live life to the fullest-intellectually, spiritually, and vocationally. The first conf cern of the faculty of the college is to prof mote the intellectual interests of the college student so that he may, after a period of training, be ready for a vocation or profession. The first concern of the Dean of Women or of the Dean of Men is in the field of char' 'IllllllllllilIIllllllllillllllllllllllllIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIlllllllllllllll acter building, and the laboratory in which that work is done is the daily life of the stu- dent. To the office of the Dean of Women the women students of the campus come with their daily problems for guidance and advice. The success with which the Dean of Women l can give wise guidance and sound advice is l dependent not only upon her knowledge of campus affairs and upon the interest she has in student life but also upon the extent to which the college faculty cooperates with her in making known the per- sonal relationship problems which come up in their departments. Fortunately the Dean of Women at N. D. S. C. is very seldom called upon to act as a disciplinarian. She attributes this to the fact that the college attracts to the campus on the whole serious minded and right thinking young women, young women who are not selfishly interested merely in their own personal affairs but who are interested in cooperating with their fellow classmates, the faculty, and the Dean of Women in building for the future. ,QD a,,,gj l Page 23 lllllim

The establishment of this office, with its duties, was one of the steps which have been taken during recent years in an effort to rebuild points of contacts between students and faculties. In the early days of the col' lege, when both the faculty and student body were small in number, there was a more inti- mate contact between the teacher and his stu' dents than is' possible now or has been possif ble' for some time. The teacher knew his stu' dents as individuals, and, to a large extent, knew their personal problems. In an effort to regain in part, contact and l l knowledge of individual students, the Dean of Men cooperates with members 'of the faculty and student organizations in dealing with all matters relating to the student, his work and life in the institution. He is willing to render to any student any help within his power. He takes a vital interest in student endeavors and activities, and is always willing to discuss matters that are of importance with the individual student, lead' ers of the various student organizations, and all members of the organization as a group.

THE SCHOOL OF AGRICULTURE Rapidly growing, efficiently functioning institutions have little time in which to collect the legends which adorn the history of older inf stitutions. The School of Agriculture of the North Dakota Agricultural College is only a little over a generation old as man measures timeg its staff and its students have been too busy doing things to collect legendary lore about the School. For many years there existed, however, a legend that some day this School would be housed in a building commensurate with the importance of the great agricultural industry of the State. The first step toward turning that legend into reality was taken by the Legislature of 1919 when SS150,000 was appropriated for the erection of a central unit 55x145 feet. The catalog for that year f19l9f1920j showed a registration of 71 underfgraduatc students in the regular four year course in agriculture. The second step which made our legend about adequate building facilities even more of a reality was taken by the Legislature of 1929, when they appropriated 395,000 for the erection of the north wing Q45 by 123 feetj of the Agricultural Building. The School year 192960 shows a registration of 207 students in the regular four year course in Agriculture. Dean H. L. Walster Another legend which has hung about this School is that some time the dif- ferent organizations among the students in the course in Agriculture might have a suitable place in which to meet. The dedicating of Room 215 in the north wing of the Ag Building as the Tifpi'o'mnifcifye or Council Lodge for the Saddle and Sirloin Club, the Alpha Zeta, and the Ag Club has made another legend a reality.
