Tinsler, Dean of the College of Liberal Arts. 41 TEACHERS This year found the George Franklin and Sarah Getty College of Liberal Arts in its best state in forty years. Additions to faculty, stalzf, curriculum and classrooms and laboratories have made it one of the best equipped of the university colleges besides having the largest number of students enrolled. As it represents the oldest college on the campus its traditions and programs are many. The college is divided into language, literature and arts, natural sciences, social sciences and teacher training divisions. Also correlated within its jurisdiction is the recently added Management Institute and Associate of Arts program, providing for two year certificate courses. The curri- cula is so formed to meet as far as is possible the needs, interests and abilities of the individual student. - Lehr Memorial, university administration building and center of the College of Liberal Arts. e-2-ss R,4, Q

The members of the administration closest to the student are the deans. They have a large share in contributing to the happi- ness or unhappiness of a student's college career. Deans Frances Burdette and Fred Clark are the coordinating elements be- tween students and their problems. Their vivid interest in the past in the success of such purely student ventures as May Day, the functions of the Student Council, Interfraternity Council and Panhellenic Council and the projected Student Union have demonstrated that they well under- stand the problems of Northern. Mr. Fred R. Clark has served as Dean of Men at Ohio Northern since 1951 He also is the advisor to the Interfraternity Council and is an administrative member of the Student Union Committee. Dean Clark had a similar position as Dean of Students at Upper Iowa University before coming to Northern THE DEANS: COORDINATORS sn- iviv, 1 M, T Q Mrs. Frances L.
