WILLIAMS The Board of Trustees EXV students realize the importance of the Board of Trustees of the University since they are seldom seen about the campus and the student body has no opportunity to become acquainted with them, yet their work is probably the most difficult and of greatest importance in the directing of the school. For a number of years Henry W. Marshall has served as the president of the board and in this position he has witnessed many improvements in the University and has personally been responsible for much of the progress. Until recently he has been actively en- gaged in the publishing business, being the publisher of the La- fayette Journal-Courier. James M. Fowler serves as the treasurer of the board. He is president of the Fowler National Bank in Lafayette. Miss Mary Miles VVilliams who is actively engaged in work in the University is the secretary for the board. The members of the board are selected from different parts of the state in order to give proper representation to the different dis- tricts and these positions are occasionally alternated making the representation fair such as is necessary for a state school. -N Z2 --

9 AROLYN E. ' S H O E - M A K E R accepted in 1913 a posi- tion that has bound her life irrevocably with that of Purdue. The position was that of dean of women. At that time there were about one hundred girls in the Uni- versity. Now there are over five hundred co-eds en- rolled in Purdue. These ever increasing responsi- bilities are not taken lightly, and Miss Shoe- maker is tireless in her labors for the welfare of the Purdue girls. CAROLYN E. SHOE MAKER VVith her aim in mind to develop a well rounded type of womanhood, she Works for the intellectual, physical, and spiritual development of each co-ed. She is interested in anything leading to better scholarship, and each year olfers a cup to the sorority with the highest scholastic standing. She has also been instrumental in bringing about greater recog- nition of Women in the University, and was one of the greatest in- fluences in obtaining a woman's gymnasium. Her present dream is to have a new Women's dormitory on the campus. Dramatics also holds Dean Shoemaker's interest and she is always ready to lend assistance in the productions of Little Theatre and the Harliquin Club. In spite of her many cares, she is never too busy to help some- one, and she is one of the truest and most sincere friends a Purdue co-ed can have. She is also a professor, instructing classes in English literature. In this capacity she has proven very popular, students finding her classes very full of human interest. Perhaps her appreciation of the situation of the woman at Purdue is due to the fact that she herself is a graduate of the school and in the time since graduating she has been very closely con- nected with the school. -..sg 21 Ea..- zaaf' Qf -Q ,JYIQ Q fhrlfst JZ ll ii zww x 9,1927 lg Y r , C nuns my 'ra ' fi Va-ii g-.L-fa' Z fl ififw ' x'-ii IC..
