(g eneral Stamps ' background is that of soldier-scholar. Prior to grad- uating from the Military Academy in 1917, he received a Bachelor of Arts Degree from the University of Texas. Having seen action in France and Germany during World War I, he served with the Corps of Engineers. As former head of the Department of Military Engineering, General Stamps was responsible for the establishment of the course in the History of Military Art. A controversial subject at the time of its inception, the Art course was built from a mere idea to the prominence which it now occupies, mainly through the efforts of General Stamps and his associates who authored and comp iled a plenitude of texts and maps to give the military man a background in his chosen profession. Upon assuming the office of Dean of the United States Military Academy, General Stamps brought the ideals of high academic standards and per- sistence in his policy to his new position. The First Class looked back wistfully recalling the comparative ease of Cow Academics, but the Dean ' s will persevered. Though the Dean ' s List on occasion dwindled, and the Deficiency List was at times alarmingly large, the man referred to in the third person simply as The Dean maintained his unflinching ideals of the highest possible academic standards for the Corps of Cadets.
