Henry Eugene Watters, A.M., D.D., LL.D. President No institution advances beyond the progress of its chief executive. Dr. Watters assumed his present duties as president back in 1918 and since that time Union has been making steady progress to the fore- ground along with other leading schools of the South. He is widely known as a minister, educator, vocational counselor, pub ic speaker and natural leader. His splendid ability and alert judgment have raised the academic standards, bettered athletic conditions, raised the endow- ment and increased the enrollment. More lasting than all his many planned achievements has been his understanding and constructive sympathy in all student problems. c n
