Towson University - Tower Echoes Yearbook (Towson, MD)

Page 15 text:

In planning the dedication for a yearbook, there are numerous factors which must be con- sidered. Many qualities must be possessed by the person who merits the dedication. Foremost among these qualities are service and actual dedication of the person to his position. In planning the dedication for the 1959 Tower Echoes, it was felt that the contribu- tions and efforts of two faculty members merit- ed recognition by the staff. Although the areas in which these two men worked are vastly different, both are equally outstanding in the services which they performed. Mr. Edward Rubendall, Advisor to the class of 1959, has shown consistent interest in the class and could always be depended upon to devote his time to our efforts, Mr. Richard Frost, Advisor to the Tower Echoes, has played an important role in guiding the staff and offering advice so that publica- tion of Tower Echoes was possible. Associated with Towson since 1954, Mr. Ed- ward Rubendall came to this college by a slight- ly diverted route. Graduated in 1932 from Illinois College with an A.B. in mathematics, Mr. Rubendall worked in business and indus- try for thirteen years. Returning to college in 1942, he was associated with the University of Illinois for several years and there received his M.S. in physics in 1947. On the Towson campus, Mr. Rubendall teaches Physical Science as well as Advanced Mathematics and Freshman Orientation. In ad- dition to teaching, Mr. Rubendall has been a member of the Curriculum Committee since 1955, chairing the group in 1958. Perhaps the key to Mr. Rubendall's success as the advisor to the class of 1959 has been his willingness to devote time and consideration to any and all class matters. He has attended all executive and class meetings and assembly rehearsals, Always ready to stay late to assist in decorating for dances or assemblies, he has always been behind the class during its four years at Towson. For his untiring interest and constant de- votion, the Senior Class dedicates 7'ozvr'r liclmcx, 1959, to Mr. Edward Rubendall. Mr. Richard Frost has been associated with State Teachers College at Towson for only two years, hut during' that time he has become an active participant in school affairs. .Xdvisor to two organizations, the ,lan Club and the 'l'ozuf'r Echoes, he spends his limited free time collect- ing books and records and writing poetry. Previously from the X'Vest Coast, air. Frost received his NB. in 1951 and his NIA. in 1957 from San ,lose State College. There he taught at Abraham Lincoln High School for four years and at San .lose Statc- College for one year be- fore coming to Towson, Here at Towson, Mr. Frost is a member of the linglish Ilepartment and teaches several English electives in addi- tion to required courses. Although Mr. Frost has always been avail- able for advice and add approval concerning Tower l'fcl1or.r, he has proved invaluable for his lack of interference in yearbook matters. The staff was allowed to make its own decisions with only guidance from him. For his support and encouragement dur- ing this year, the stall' dedicates 7lU1l't'1' Iirllom, 1959, to lX Ir, Richard Frost, ' Rubendall and Mr. Frost meet lor brief discussion concerning thc up t'r'ition of the Tozccr lfrllvvr.
