FACULTY1938 THE FACULTY Persons instructing should possess the traits of leadership. judgment. resource- fulness, poise. and breadth of interest. These characteristics enable them to under- stand the problems of those under their care and the community which they both serve. This, then, describes the Tilden faculty. Its members come from various walks of life to enter their profession. Many with scholastic honors and high degrees: dozens more whose specialized talents are the envy of their fellow teachers. Exceptional musicians. both vocal and instrumental. vie with other artists who have successfully competed in their field and even served on boards as critics of fine workmanship. Designers of oflice buildings, residences, and churches and builders of them, too, are here. A field artillery is in the list of buildings-R.O.T.C. please note. Writers of manuals, treatises. and text books in chemistry: more text books in English and Spanish: a deviser of an ability grouping test in mathmatics: experts on curriculum changes: dramatists. dancers, skaters. and other sport stars: aviators and globe trotters: public speakers and community club leaders-all these and more material of the finest caliber are to be found in a faculty whose reward lies in the nne crop of students it turns out each year.
