am mm! Mm It is generally known that Richardson Hall houses the administrative offices, but a glance into the vaults and files will better show their work. The office of' Dean Marsh has as one of its major tasks the publishing of the annual catalogue. It also has a complete check on the scholastic achievements or deficiencies of each student. There, general data on college organizations may be found. Adjoining is the Business Office where many a student purse is deflated. The work behind the barred windows involves an expert knowledge of bookkeeping. The matter of borrowed tuitions necessitates Mr. McNeil's Loan Office. Authentic records of student enrollments from the past ages to the present may be found in the Registrar's Office. It also deals in marks which are representative of stu- dent achieveInent. The offices of the Dean of Men and Women have the full responsi- bility of student behavior, however, assuming a tie-up between student achievement and behavior, there also are found records of cur- rent. grades. At the opposite end of the hall is the ofhce of the Student Secretary. A year- BOARD OF TRUSTEES, Row 1-W. G. ANDERSON, I. D. HARRIS, C. A. KITCH, FRANK E. MOSSBIAN, O. A. BOYLE, H. P.

g line of the first things that the Southwestern faculty insists upon is that the student place first things first, that a liberal education be solidly founded on purposeful scholarship. The Passing of the Torch from the grad- uating to the junior class is one of the beautiful traditions of the campus. Here at Southwestern this spirit of scholarship that characterizes the student body makes competition keen and hard work pleasurable. l A R

around service in getting new students is maintained by this office. Centrally located, the office of the President serves as a guide to the other branches of the administration. The Powers That Be Although the past, present and future policy of this institution rests with the author- ity of the Board of Trustees, the actual work is done by eight standing committees. The Executive Committee manages the business of the college between the three regu- lar sessions of the board. Other committees, more specific in their purpose, are those in charge of budget, loans, faculty, buildings and grounds, dormitories, nominations and de- grees. It is to Mr. O. A. Boyle, president of the Board of Trustees, that these committees re- port. The efiiciency of the business meeting is frequently speeded up by spicy bits of jest. The members of the board are informed of the accomplishments of the college by the faculty reports which are read at the annual meeting. At this March meeting, held on Founders' Day, new officers were elected. President Conducts Financial Campaign A shrewd judge of human nature-a sterling character-a commanding voice-an ever-present sense of humor-these person- ality traits are responsible for our President's success in his great undertaking this year- that of heading a financial campaign. 1 1-Government PRESIDENT FRANK E. MOSSMAN conducts the problems of administration in a dignified and straight- forward manner. Through the President's leadership, the accumulated college debt has been materially reduced. For this we can only voice our ap- preciation for the work done. This year the President's work has taken him from our campus a large part of the time, but he always has a friendly word for his many friends on the campus. He greatly enjoys student contacts and easily makes a friend of the most timid Freshman. up U Q This interest does not stop with the stu- dent's graduation.
