Dean Emerzkur R, H. Raabe L ,,,,,,,,,,,, ,. DEDICATION A Wise man once said An institution is the lengthened shadow of one man. Certainly it can be said that the Ohio Northern College of Pharmacy is the lengthened shadow of R. H. Raabe. Dean Raabe was graduated B.S. degree from Ohio Northern University in the summer of 1903. After teaching for several years he returned to Northern and earned the degrees of PhG. and Ph.C. In 1930 he received his doctorate at the University of Havana, Cuba. Dean Raabe began teaching at Ohio Northern in 1910 and taught for a total of forty-five years. He served as Dean of the College of Pharmacy from 1917 to I95O. In 1950 he was named Dean Emeritus of the College, remaining on the faculty, but with less teaching responsibility. At the time of his retirement in 1955, the student branch of the American Pharmaceutical Association and Kappa Psi fraternity honored him with a banquet in recognition of his many contributions to Northern. At commencement in June 1955, Dean Raabe Was presented with a citation for his outstanding leadership and service at Ohio Northern University. Dean Raabe stands as a symbol of Ohio Northern stability and solidarity. For nearly half a century he has stuck by Northern through thick and thin. He, with others, stayed by at great personal sacrifice, and carried on when the future looked anything but bright. Through his long years of leadership and faithful service he has gained the everlasting esteem, gratitude, and support of the students, alumni, faculty, and administration of Ohio Northern University. The editor and staff of the Northern are honored by the privilege of dedicating this yearbook to R. H. Raabe, Dean Emeritus of the Ohio Northern College of Pharmacy. Dean Raabe is certainly echoing the words of the citation presented to him at commencement, One of Northern's grand old men, dearly beloved. He is certainly One of Northern's grand old men, dearly beloved. 4

TIME and Ohio Northern and measuring our lives-is important to every person. Each day, week, and month of life ticks away on the eternal clock. We with our theme of Time have attempted to show how these measures have passed on the much smaller clock of our university life. If in time to come this book is able to recall to its reader the pleasant memories of our years at Ohio Northern University, we shall feel that our efforts have been more than duly rewarded.
