r.G TEACHER- SCIIIILAII -PIIISIINALITY In our midst there is a man of unusual character, personality, and ability, possessed with the understanding nature of a teacher and the firmness and decision of a soldier. Dr. George V. Irons, in the seven years that he has been with us, has come to exemplify the spirit of Howard College for which it has so long been noted and is so justly proud. He is, first of all, a teacher. Dr. Irons came to Howard as an instruc- tor in history in 1934. Despite his attachment to this department students in every field find a ready and obliging friend in him. His overflowing classes testify to the popularity of his varied and informing lectures. With his personal magnetism and genial cordiality, he has also a thorough background of learning. He received his A.B. and M.A. degrees at the University of Alabama, where he achieved unusual promi- nence in scholarship, athletics and the military. One of his most signal honors was his election to Phi Beta Kappa, a distinction enjoyed by only seven other athletes in the previous history of the institution. Upon completion of a monumental thesis in the field of southern history, he was awarded the Ph.D. degree by Duke University, and has since become recognized as one of the outstanding native authorities on the subject. Because of the commission which he holds in the Reserve Army Corps, and his thorough knowledge of military science, Dr. Irons may soon be called to service with the colors. ENTRE NOUS is glad of this opportunity to give recognition to this popular but retiring professor. We assure him that his friendship has been both a pleasure and an inspira- tion to us. ellrge .
