Decker, Dean of Students DEAN OF STUDENTS Nobody could make a better commercial for Hush Puppy shoes than Dr. Rodger W. Decker, Dean of Students. He walks more miles in a day than most of us in a week. After all, he coordinates the efforts of our other Deans Overholser, McNair, and Keylon, soothes the nerves of frustrated Dorm Moth- ers , and tries to appease the cries of outraged students. When all else fails, Dr. Hewitt is called to the rescue to seek out our deep-seated anxieties and guide us back to sani- ty. The Student Affairs office is a remarkable place: perhaps re- marked about more than any other office on campus. 24 Grace McS. Overholser, Assistant Dean of Students Pii PUM wMyhs iMiMt

John W. Craig. Registrar REGISTRAR ' S OFFICE Last year Mr. Gross used to sit back in that private little office of his and have a good old time doing something. This year, that good old time has been turned over to the chuckling collector of transcripts. John W. Craig. With the able assis- tance of Mrs. Mary Parker and Miss Peggy Wade, the memory bank of the registrar ' s office collects all pertinent data about your academic endeavors. Leaving nothing out. those manila folders have your kindergarten grades on up to a record of your latest A P notice. Their efforts are not totally con- fined to students ' records. They also have the simple task of setting up those simple registration lines with the simple little IBM cards. Everybody is always excited about standing in registration line (re- minds you of Saturday matinees when you were a kid), and the reg- istrar is equally excited about those glorious days when his meager efforts at organization are employed. He skips through the lit- tle chore of setting up classes, times, and room numbers. Then he shuffles the little punch cards and files them away into the different courses of study. Finally, he pa- tiently listens to all the ridiculous squawks concerning math majors m music appreciation courses, etc. He then puts on his coat, loosens his tie, and proceeds home where he quietly commits suicide rather than return for another semester. It ' s no wonder they sit back there in that little office and chuckle the day away. Peggy M. Wade. Secretary 23
