Dean of Women OOKOTIIY 1.11 1» HARRIS Druu nf Women To Tim Class of 1967: In a changing .society the college-educated woman must anticipate assuming responsibilities of a broader and more complex nature than her contemporary of a generation ago. Not only is she more likelv to use her education in a professional way but also she can antici- pate greater involvement with the total welfare of the worlds people. Her sphere of influence will extend further and further beyond her family circle and even her immediate community. Preparation for her life to come is partially a classroom experience and partially the function of many University opportunities provided for her in which she can learn to care about others and to assume wise leadership among her peers. The out-of- classroom as|H ets of University life are the special focus of the stall ol the Dean of Women. The stall includes some seventy-five women ranging in age from eighteen to sixty-five. Like any other group of women, stall mcmlx'rs arc married, unmarried and wid- owed. Their children range from babyhood to adulthood. Among the younger staff memliers are some advanced undergraduates and the level of education extends through the doctorate. The greater proportion are study- ing at the University. Such a variety of people produces a variety of activity on behalf of undergraduate women. The purposes, however, are simply defined: to care about individual students according to their needs; to develop as many programs as possible in which the largest num- Iwr of women may learn to lead and to serve others. We of the stall look with pride upon the women who graduate each year. Somehow we hope that we have pro- vided care when earing was important and encourage- ment to he real women when tin time was right.

Jr. Dean of Men To rui'. Class ok 1967: Many changes have taken place in undergraduate life at Penn State over the years. Most of the significant ones have occurred during the last two generations of college Students; that is. within the past eight or ten years. In all probability, the next eight or ten years will be as significant. Few of you will recognize the student of tomorrow in terms of the greater freedom and greater responsibility that he will enjoy. This freedom will obtain not only in his out-of-class life but in his program of studies as well. The attainment of this freedom will not In- easy and many problems will develop along the way. However, as a result of the groundwork that you have laid, a frame- work for meaningful change has been developed. FRANK J. SIMMS Dean a Men 12
