Vice-President Our vice-president, Mr. William T. Martin, son of Dr. and Mrs. Martin, came to Sullins last year after working on the reorganization of the Associated Gas and Electric System in New York City. Mr. Martin at- tended Washington and Lee University, where he received his A. B. degree, and Harvard University, where he received his LL. B. degree. In these two years, he has taken an active interest in the good of the college and of the girls. We feel free to go to him at any time, for we are sure that he will give us sound advice because of his enthusiastic interest in our problems. Mr. Martin ' s keen sense of humor and his pleasant smile have made him a friend to every girl at Sullins. He can be counted on to act wisely and sympathetically in every situation. Pag© 18

President In after years, when our minds return to Sullins days, we shall think of our beloved president, Di. W. E. Martin. His philosophy and his principles, deeply instilled in our minds and hearts, will ever serve as in- centives to finer living. His great desire is to make clearer to each one of us our purpose in life. Dr. Martin, a lover of nature and horses, sees that the college has the best of each so that we may ali know more of them. Each spring in chapel he gives informative talks which awaken our interest in the rare flowers and trees on the campus. Vitally interested in every girl and every organization on the campus, he is always trying to make us happier. His faith, which shows through in his everyday life, his humor, and his kind, gentle ways will re- main long in the heart of every girl who has attended Sullins. Page 17 »

Dean Dean Daniel L. Metts is one of the first people each girl at Sullins meets. Whether we approach him at the beginning of the year to outline our courses or return later for further help, he meets us with our own in- terests at heart. Dean Metts attended Emory University, where he received his M. A. and B. Ph. degrees. He has also done graduate work at the University of North Carolina. He is a native of Georgia. He not only serves as Dean of the faculty but also teaches freshman English. His classes are very in- teresting because of his keen sense of humor. Dean Metts has a sincere interest in all of us and in our futures, and his firm, reliable judgment guides us through the year ' s work. His genuine interest in his work gives all of us an ambition to try and meet his standards. Page 19
