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 --

POTTER Engineering VER in the old electrical building where several of the officials of our school have their oflices, you will find a very earnest and energetic man who speaks rapidly and with a marked accent. That is Dean A. A. Potter, the head of all of the engineering schools on the campus. His activities are numerous since he is very well known all over the country and his determina- tion has enabled him to be a marked man of his word. Students in the engineering schools find him very amiable and always ready to lend a helping hand when it comes to any matter concerning engineering and it is for this reason that he spends con- siderable of his time with the student body. Through his personal acquaintances he is able to bring many prominent engineers and industrial leaders to the campus and the students are given the opportunity of meeting them in the far famed course of engineering administration, the lectures of which are at- tended by all senior engineering students. Dean Potter is also much in demand for consulting work and engineering projects requiring wide technical knowledge by large corporations all over the country. VVe are indeed proud to' have him as a friend and it can be assured that the future of the school will be one of progress under his careful guidance. -..ggi 24
