Vflaile at Duke, he became a member of the Kappa Alpha so- cial fraternity, the 9019 local scholastic fra- ternity and Phi Beta Kappa national scholastic fraternity. He came to Howard as professor of history in 1941 and was appointed Dean of Men during his first year here. Since coming to Howard, he has done post-doetorinal work at the Harvard Graduate School of lfdu:ation. ls it any wonder that his associates Contra- dict him when Dean Dale merely says of his honors and achievements that he is a Baptist and 3 Democrat. . -sa' .,,.
