. . . (jertruje The 1958 TEMPLAR is gratefully dedicated to an outstanding woman who has served Temple Uni- versity for 35 years, Gertrude D. Peabody, Dean of Women. Miss Peabody came to Temple as an instructor in home economics in 1923 and rose to the post of department head and assistant professor in 1926. Since 1930 she has held the post of Dean of Women and in this capacity has won the respect and admiration of all those who have known her. Besides general administrative work for the Uni- versity, her roles as Dean have been varied aod include teaching, cooperation with and supervision of extra-curricular programs, housing supervision, orientation and personal counseling of individual students. Foreign students have a special fondness for Miss Peabody for she has served as their ad- viser for eight years. Last year the University honored Miss Peabody by building a new women ' s dormitory which bears her name. This is an unusual distinction for someone still in active service in a university. We of the yearbook staff would like to add our tribute to this fine administrator. For her wonderful guidance, sympathetic under- standing and sincere interest in all those with whom she comes in contact we dedicate this book to Gertrude D. Peabody. II
