MEMOBUM Katherine R. Jeffers (1907-1959), was the Dean of Jackson College for seven years. She brought to the office fine administrative abilities as well as a deep understand¬ ing of human nature. She fulfilled her obligations as dean with strength and vigor, but she brought something, and gave something more important, and yet less tangible, to the College and University, than her office demanded. Dean Jeffers taught two courses in the Biology Depart¬ ment. As a member of Phi Beta Kappa (Alpha of Mis¬ souri ), and Sigma Xi, she brought to her students extraor¬ dinary intellectual ability, and she gave something more valuable than cold fact. They will not readily forget the lesson she taught. As Dean, she brought a never-ending belief in the abilities of Jackson Women, and the College owes no small debt to her for its reputation and success. She realized that the success of the college depended on the individuals in it, and attempted to develop the intellectual growth, and just as important, the personal growth and maturity of the students. These two elements were, to her, inseparable. Dean Jeffers was never one to glorify her own suc¬ cesses. The things she accomplished for Jackson never received special consideration for her. They were as much a part of her as her own personality, and she would be contented with the knowledge that they helped Jackson to grow. The school will not forget her personal integrity and devotion to her office. Nor will it forget the standards she kept in order to help build Jackson to what it is today, and what it will be in the future. 18
