Academic Deans The college is divided into five schools, each administered by a dean, for the purpose of administration of instruction, and in keeping with the offerings. The School of Arts and Sciences, administered by Dr. C. E. Dugdale, prepares a stud ent for entry into professional schools and enables the student to qualify for positions in the voca- tional fields. Providing training for homemaking and preparing students for employment in business, in- dustry, and agriculture are the objectives of the School of Applied Arts and Sciences. Robert H. Easley is the Dean. Hilda Burnham is the Dean of the School of Nursing which equips capable young men and women with the basic competence for becoming professional practitioners of nursing. It also provides the basic foundations for advanced professional study and continuous growth. The primary purpose of the School of Education is to prepare well-qualified teachers for the elementary and high schools of Louisiana. Dr. John A. Jones is Dean of this school, and Dr. William F. Beyer, Jr., is the Assistant to the Dean. The Graduate School, begun in 1954, is under the capable administration of Dr. Leo T. Albrltten.
