Making friends and influencing people: Rodney El- lis in the midst of his duties as CUB Director. - ■-«» »»•■ w !P ' FORESIGHT Prepares Student! for the Future W: ' hether fresh and new or established and proven, it is the faculty and staff that Stetson students look to for friendly advise and helpful guidance. Stetson faculty is dynannic and ever-changing. The most obvi- ous change this year was the gala and ceremonious installation of the new President, Douglas Lee. Of course, there remain some unchangeable symbols of knowledge, such as Dr. Colwell, an extraordinarily able professor who faithfully leads the spectacular convocation at the Forest of Arden each year. A university is a multi-faceted institution. As well as a place of learning, it is a food service, a counseling center, a comptroller, a health service, and a safe, secure place to call home. Running a university such as Stetson is a big business, and for such an establishment to thrive, it takes a special group of people to keep it running smoothly — the Stetson staff. And as the Stetson students of today are the leaders of tomor- row, these valuable role models generously pass on to us the leadership skills, knowledge, and important values that will be indispensable aids as we bravely face the challenges of the future. After a strenuous day of Residential Life duties, Kemper Smith relaxes for a few moments. asstm ensatwns PERSONNEL Personnel 23

Beginning a New Era It has been about a year since Presi- dent Doug Lee began in his new of- fice, and it certainly has been a year of reflection and of looking ahead. Looking back means understanding Stetson ' s current status: entrenched in a highly competitive environment, yet providing unique opportunities for students, faculty, and staff. Look- ing ahead means long-range goals, considering the community ' s needs, encouraging faculty, staff, and stu- dent participation in planning, and positioning Stetson on the national academic map. Working to put it all together are all Stetson supporters. Working to keep it on track is Dr. Doug Lee. Dr. H. Douglas Lee and Mark Hollis.
