Dean Wisner and Student Council DEAN PXIZABETH WISNER SCHOOL OF SOCIAL WORK . SUMMER SCHOOL The School of Social Work is a professional school offering graduate preparation for positions in public and private wel- fare organizations and agencies. Specialized preparation is offered in group work: family and child welfare: medical, psychiatric, and school social work: and social welfare planning. The School of Social Work is a member of the Grad- uate Division of the Council on Social Work Education. Summer school may be attended bv students enrolled in anv College of Tulane University or any other university. The courses offered are used toward undergraduate degrees, and also are applied toward degrees in graduate school. Summer school offers an opportunity to schedule work which could not conveniently be fitted into regular programs, to supple- ment programs with courses of particular interest, to make up deficiencies of prerequisites: and to reduce the length of time required to qualify for a degree.

SMITHER Tliird Vice-President FRANCIS G. PAYNE Secretary VICTOR LOTA Treasurer The Tulane Alumni Association was organized in 1898 and is devoted to the broad principles of service to Tulane Univer- sity. Since then Tulane alumni have taken an active part in the progress of one of the South ' s oldest and greatest educational institutions. Through the Alumni Association the University maintains contacts with graduates and former students. The Tiilanian. alumni magazine, is sent free of charge to all alumni. Active Tulane alumni clubs exist in many parts of the world. Each year the Association sponsors Homecoming, a celebra- tion which brings graduates back to the campus for reunions and other activities. The Tulane Alumni Fund, organized in 1946 by the Alumni themselves, is conducted by Class Agents, Area Representa- tives, and other alumni. The Fund has increased each year both, in numbers of contributors and money contributed. It has become a strong financial support of the University and has been another means of nurturing alumni interest. The Tulane Conferences are in their third year and are projects of the Tulane Alumni Association, designed to co- operate with and encourage alumni clubs of the University. This year seminar-type programs were presented through the Conferences in Alexandria, Shreveport, Monroe, Lake Charles and Lafayette. Louisiana. Jackson. Mississippi and Mobile. Alabama. 24
