UNIVERSITY ADMINISTRATION Just as a great, modern ocean liner has two huge rudders to cuide its journey, so a great, modern university has two divisions of administration. One is the admin- istration of faculty, the other is a student government. Ohio State appreciates the efficient and capable people who make possible the instruction of twelve thousand students at one time. All students of Ohio State have, in some way, been in contact with Bland L. Strad- ley, the University Examiner. It is only with his approval that students are permitted to enter, to join a cooperative club, or to work on N. Y. A. In the spring of 1937 he be- came the Dean of the Arts College. Esther Allen Gaw is well known and admired by all as Dean of Women. She is in charge of all things which affect the women students, such as housing, activities, and social education. A mem- ber of Phi Beta Kappa, Dean Gaw considers gardening and Spanish as her hobbies. Many students can vouch for Joseph A. Park’s ability in performing his duties as Dean of Men, while supervis- ing the activities of the men of the University. Dean Park is a former member of Sphinx, a Secretary of the YMCA, and a member of the Makio staff. Ohio State is proud of Carl E. Steeb, one of its graduates. Since his matriculation he has remained here as account- ant, purchasing agent, and now as business manager of the University. Mr. Steeb likes to fish as an extra-cur- ricular activity. Miss Edith D. Cockins has even more influence at Ohio State than her titles suggest .. . Registrar, University edi- tor, secretary cf the faculty, and alumni recorder. She was recently given an honor- ary membership in Mortar Board to reward her services in the interests of the Uni- versity. pin cradle) park cock sree?

Fanning Hayes Pollard Odegard Wittke S much a part of the University as the Long Walk or the Library are certain faculty faces, familiar to the students and rich in memory. With a faculty as large in number as Ohio State’s, it is impossible to present a true cross-section of that important group. Every professor deserves commendation for his effort, and the Makio feels that certain of these Familiar Faculty Faces deserve recognition for their work, habits, or hobbies. Professor Billy Graves, characterized by his likeness to Mr. Esquire and remembered for 430 English and his phonograph records, has remained with the University for many years. Professor Tuttle, while not lecturing in the Law School, is alleged to delight in eating apples. Professor French is known the world over as an authority on etchings. Psychologist, and polo enthusiast, Dr. Burtt, motorcycles his way to school every morning. His colleague, Dr. Toops, has every student’s “number”, as he is the head of the intelligence testing department of the University. From Hamilton Hall we have Dr. Graham, remembered by all Dental students, and Dr. Dodd, whose lectures in the Medical school attract a great deal of attention. Dr. Evans still gives his impressive 8:00 lectures in Freshman chemistry, even after winning the Vivian award in that field. The school of Journalism is directed by Professor Pollard, known to every member of that college, while Professor Fanning confines his time to Hayes Hall teaching art. Political science has an able authority in young Professor Odegard, while Professor Wittke of banjo and folk-song fame successfully remains at the head of the History Department. Dr. Hayes, after having tried his hand at politics has decided that teaching Economics is probably his life work. Professors such as these, give the Ohio State faculty its distinct personality!
