President Ryle, an excellent administrator ill, President Ryle and his wife in their residence at 820 East Patterson. Our president, Dr. Walter H. Ryle, has served the college in various capaci- ties. These include Professors of Social Science and Head of the Bureau of Placements. But his chief contributions have been in the field of administration. Appointed in 1937 as President of KSTC, Dr. Ryle has been throughout the years a tirelessworker and a great orga- nizer. The forward march of KSTC through the past 25 years has been large- ly due to his vision and his indefatigible efforts. In the present academic year new records have been set: enrollment ex- panded, dormitories built, and faculty en- larged, all outward evidences of the tan- gible progress noteworthy throughout all the years of President Ryle's administra- tion.

Some students come to college for books. Others come for parties. But the majority of students who come to KSTC have a broader goal in mind. They come to the Teachers College first to learn facts and then to learn how to apply them. For the enterprising student the campus is a community with all the cultural and social opportunities of a metropolis. Every week the stage is set for spectacular entertainment---classical or jazz, international celebrities or student stars. Every student has his interests. Every department has its followers. And to fulfill the interests of the students and the departments there are lectures and activities every week. This is campus life at KSTC. Not just books and classes. Not merely parties. But dances and plays, concerts and lectures, work and play are all an intricate part of the life in this campus com- munity.
