I ' roniotioii The Rollins College Trustees deci ' led not to seek a Dean to carry on all the duties so ahly discharged by Dean Anderson, but rather to distribute these duties to several executives. Therefore. Dr. Wendell C. Stone, Professor of Philosophy, was elected Dean of the Faculty, while Dr. Alex Waite was appointed Director of Studies. Promotion

I ' re.siilenl Elect Never has the old adage One man ' s loss is another man ' s gain been driven home to the Rollins family as it has this year. With the departure of Dean Winslow S. (for Samuel I Anderson, to assume the presidency of Whitman College, Rollins faces the coming of the war-time crisis without one of its real bul- warks. It ' s a far cry from the sunny shores of Florida to the rock-bound coast of Maine, but Winslow Anderson made the trek with the same ease which was to mark his progress in many fields through the years. A member of Phi Beta Kappa and an honor graduate, upon his graduation from Bates College in 1921, Winslow Anderson joined the Rollins faculty as an associate professor of chemistry. In 1923 he received his M. S. from the University of Minnesota and then continued his graduate study with research and teaching at North Carolina State College. In 1928 he was recalled to Rollins and appointed dean of men. The following year he was named dean of the college, a position which he occupied until his departure in May of this year. There are those rare individuals who can apparently handle any problem with ease and dispatch, who possess the true genius of the executive talent coupled with the breadth of vision and human compassion of the visionary. Winslow Anderson is of that unusual group. Here is a man of accomplishments so vast and wide in their scope that attempting to come into contact with him in all his endeavours is like trying to dam the ocean. His ability is protean, his record of achievement tremendous. He was founder, president, treasurer and adviser of Theta Kappa Nu, national social fraternity now merged with Lambda Chi Alpha into the third largest collegiate organization of its kind. His work as dean of the college, like many of his labors, was accomplished smoothly and efficiently and while there were no fanfares of trumpets to hail his many innovations, he has left on Rollins his mark in bold outline in countless ways. In the first World War he held the rank of Lieutenant in the Chemical Warfare Reserve. A member of the American Chemical Society and five other honorary fraternities, he also serves as a member of the Board of Trustees of Webber College in Babson Park. Florida. A leading member of the Florida State Defense Council, he was also vice-president of the Southern Intercollegiate Athletic Association and former president of the Association of Academic Deans of the Southern States and head of the Florida Association of Colleges and LIniversities. The list could continue at length. But there is little need here to embellish the record of Rollins Dean Winslow S. Anderson with further garlands. Able administrator, discerning adviser, firm friend and dis- tinguished servant of the common good in many fields, he goes to his new post as president of Whitman College in Walla-Walla, Washington, with best wishes and regretful goodbyes from all who knew him here.

It isn ' t so much the fact that she is intelligent, and tactful, and has a sense of humor that makes us like Dean Cleveland, hut it ' s hecause of all the little things she does so easily and well — the way she played soft hall with us at the heach, the fact that she rides a hicycle hecause of gas rationing and mounts and dismounts gracefully; the way she throws her head hack when she laughs; the fact that she is tall and has a low vihrant voice; the spirit she manifests whether it ' s in condemnation or jiraise; our realiza- tion that her own home and children and life ahroad have given her an unusually fine background for dealing with people; her taste in ear rings and her striking attractiveness; and most of all because she is always beautifully and unquestionably Rollins First Lady. Dean of W omen Makian Van Buuen Cleveland Boasting the only genuine Van Dyke beard to be found at Rollins, Arthur Delano Enyart is described catalogue-wise as A.B., A.M., S.T.B., LITT.D., (1911-1931) Dean of Men; Professor of Business Eco- nomics. Known variously as the billy-goat , that Enyart , In-the-Lake Enyart but mostly as just plain Dean , Arthur D. has had a long career at Rollins. His favorite sport has always been swimming . . . partic»ilarly early in the morning. In order to indoctrinate the students of Economics 306, 307, 308, and 309 ... all of which are known as the Dean ' s Course , he has instituted a charming cus- tom of sunrise swimming for those overly-reluctant members of his classes who still remain abed at 8:30. Hardly to be ignored are the Dean ' s midnight seances, sometimes pursuing proctor-less students from house to house and room to room, and sometimes leading his O.O.O.O. ' s out for another of their mysterious meetings. This is Enyart, Dean of Men! Dean of Men Arthur D. Enyart
