This section of the Chimes is a por- trait of the distinguished men and women who plan the curriculum of the college and supervise the intellectual development of each student. How- ever, the individual photographs of the members of the faculty, adminis- tration, and staff do not reveal the special qualities which make them honored and respected by the students. It is through having been in the pres- ence of some of these people that the student gains an appreciation for their contributions to the college. The two characteristics which all share—whether he be dean, professor, house director, athletic coach, or sec- retary — is cooperation and devotion. They are always willing to sacrifice their time to help individual students with their academic and personal prob- lems.

With their insight and experience in education, they guide the student in confronting the challenge which has become his when he entered college. A dministration
