if al f -K .J-C ometime in her four years at Simmons the average student becomes aware of the awe-inspiring term administration It may be at the time g g during orientation Week of her freshman year when the President or G 'E'E 1 the Dean address the incoming class'-or it might be when the President of Student Government or the Chairman of Honor Board explains the system of self-government by the student at Simmons or the responsibility of the Honor System. But through her four years at College each student is reminded of the guiding hand in back of her. A conference with the Dean or with the Guidance Director, a talk with the Placement Director in her senior year before she leaves Simmons to go on to work. All these help to tie the Simmons girl in closer relationship with the ad- ministration of the College. The Stu-G open meetings let her know what is going on in the Council and what plans are being made that will affect her and future students. Even after she is graduated, the Alumnae Office and the Review keep her in touch with the College and her classmates. In her four years at College each student comes to realize the warm, human, and lasting friendship that is Simmons. Vw . 2 A ttfi The front of the building wezf still the mme when ftzeeie1zz'.r .

Ever read to counsel and guide us, Dean Merick, retirjzzg in fzme, N49, fbe refjv bert friend we have af .9fllZ1lI07IJ'. From the students' point of View the administration of the business of Simmons College is a formidable job done with admi- rable suavity, and this over-all impression is created only because of the individuals Who are the Officers of Administration. We must say good-by this June to Dean Jane Louise Mesick, Who has announced her retirement after tvventy-live years in office. Oflicially Miss Mesick is Dean, but unoflicially to every girl with trouble or triumph she is friend and counselor. Miss Mesick's ab- sence vvill be keenly felt. Before President Bancroft Beat- ley came to Simmons in 1932 he was associate professor of educa- tion in the Graduate School of Education of Harvard University. This superioracademicbackground combined with his understanding, as a parent and a teacher, of stu- dent life makes President Beatley's M1', Bafcbelder watcher one ret of baokr mm' our libmrimzr another.
