. . . The Student Executors Dean of Men Dr. J. Clark Graham is a man Ripon has been proud to claim as Dean of the college. He is a brilliant and cultured friend and teach- er. with a keen insight into the real problems of the student and genuine interest in the just administration of various problems which con- iront him daily. It is not only as a counsellor that Ripon students will remember Dean Graham, but also as a teacher. His own love for the liter- ature of the English language has been the door through which young minds have dis- covered joy in reading. His sympathetic un- derstanding has helped many a young writer develop his talents. Dean Graham was graduated from a liberal arts college similar to Ripon. The value of the ideals and standards of such institutions are very dear to him. Ripon feels highly hon- ored in having had Yankton college ask him to be its president, although it is with reluc- tance that we see him go. Dean of Women Dean Margaret Cuninggim has proved her- self a gracious and charming member of the Ripon college administration since she became Dean of Women. Her winning and sympa thetic personality has made her the friend of every girl on campus. Any problem brought before her receives careful consideration, and is solved, not as a Dean answer a student's question, but as a friend generously aids another. Besides holding the postion of Dean. Miss Cuninggim is also an instructor in art. In her classes she teaches the expression of spirit through an artistic medium, the application of art and beauty to every-day living. Ripon women are indeed fortunate to have suh a guide as Miss Cuninggim. She doesn't have to describe to her students the art of liv- ing in a gracious manner, for she herself is an outstanding example of such a life. 7
