Dedication Harvey Evert Huber, to whom this annual is dedicated, needs no introduction to most of us. Those who didn’t know him can not help but appreciate his accomplishments here at Ohio Northern. Through four decades as a teacher and an administrator, he experienced the joys and the calamities that this university has had to face. Dean Huber received his A.B. degree from Ohio Northern in 1909 and his master of arts from Yale in 1912, He re¬ turned to Ohio Northern as a professor, and in 1920 be¬ came dean of the Liberal Arts College. He held this posi¬ tion until July, 1952. At the time of his death in April, 1953, he was the head of the biology department. His subtle humor and his goodnatured approach to educa¬ tion made him one of the most popular teachers in the history of Ohio Northern. Few can measure up to his Professor lluber explaining the human brain to a biology class of the past. capacity to inspire students to take his courses seriously and to reap the unlimited knowledge that was contained in his lectures. His recommendation was sufficient and served as a key to many for entering the best medical and graduate schools. Many have studied under “the Dean,” and, no matter what field they pursued, have reported that he was a main factor in rounding out their education. He supervised the addition of improved facilities in his natural science department, but did not live to gain the satisfaction of seeing students using them. By means of his vast contributions, his unselfish dedication to North¬ ern, and the high regard held for him by others in the field of education, his unchallenged mastery of anatomy and other natural sciences, he is as much a part of Northern as men like Lehr, Park, Fess, Willis, Deming, Freeman, and Smull. 4
