AZTWI, llUE PHESIDE T DR. ROBERT L. NUGENT Public relations man for the University is Vice-president Robert L. Nugent. He heads all the schoolls good will efforts, and is our state high school ambassador. Coordinating the curricula and education problems between fac- ulty and students is another duty of this man, who owns a perpetual smile. Dr. Nugent was once an Arizona student, and in 1923 he served as student body president. That year he received his B.S., and in 1925 he completed his M.S. here. Before joining the UA faculty in 1932, he earned a B.A. at Oxford and a Ph.D. at Cornell. This year Dr. Nugent's picture appeared in the Valentine issues of the Wildcat and the Tucson papers as one of the city's most eligible bachelors. An enlarged photograph mounted on a giant red heart now hangs in his office, a gift from his downtown luncheon group. This year the Board of Regents was active in the promotion of the expansion of the physical parts - acquiring land and constructing build- ings - of the three campuses. The ten members meet on call, approxi- mately once a month. Each of the three insti- tutions of higher learning is host to the group at least once during the year. The State Superintendent of Public Instruc- tion and the Governor are ex officio membersg the remaining eight are appointed by the Gov- ernor. FORMER Rhodes scholars, Gerald McNiece and Dr. Nugent, chat between sessions of interviews with students for this honor. BUARD 0F HEGE T Kiwi- ll ll ll ,,, L . .
