L A E N C I N A DR. ROBERT G. CLE- LAND, Dean of the Faculty: The office of the Dean of the Faculty is primarily concerned with the academic life of the college. This includes general supervision of all matters of an academic character originating in or directed by the faculty, general supervision of the scho- lastic standing and interests of the students, and a coordinating relationship between the col- lege and the Board of Trustees in matters peculiarly of an academic nature. DR. ARTHUR G. COONS, Executive Secretary to the President: The executive secretary mitigates the harsh details of public relations, pub- lic events, and publicity for the institution. In internal campus life he has been acting chair- man of the department of eco- nomics, chairman of the student aid committee, which has bene- fited approximately two hun- dred students, and a member of the executive committee. More- over, he is an active member of the alumni organization and of various faculty committees. Twenty-two

LA ENCINA ' DR. IRENE T. xMYERS, Dean of Women: Dean Myers is the effective power that ad- vances the women interests in college and in outside relations. Her profound respect for sin- cere ability is the force that has made it possible for some fifteen women to gain the advantages of higher education this year, for four hundred women to view the various vocations open to women in life w ork, and for recognition of national policies of women in accomplishment. This completes Dean Myers ' thirteenth year of association with Occidental. - BL ' RT RICHARDSON, Chairman of Men ' s Affairs: On the first day of the college year over four-fifths of our stu- dents were able to sign a ques- tionnaire issued by the faculty committee of Men ' s Affairs, of which Burt Richardson is chair- man, stating that they had se- lected a particular profession or vocation which would represent their life ' s work. The classwork of students studying under such a plan is certain to be of greater interest and of better quality. Ticentif- three
