CURRICULAR ACTIVITY, IN A CLASS BY ITSELF In a lecture hall, a student takes pages of notes, doodling idly on the margin. In lab he looks for an “unknown”, known only to the instructor. In the library, he crams for an exam, and “takes a break” by skimming over a book in the recreational reading room or drifting downstairs for a quick smoke.

DEANS OF MEN AND WOMEN From assistant director of Ordark Research Project to Dean of Men was quite a change, but no one can any longer imagine Dean Shoemaker as anyone but Dean Shoemaker. A Harvard graduate, Dean John Shoe¬ maker, a native of Seattle, Washing¬ ton, received degrees in engineering, which led to his work with the Ordark Project. Now, whether he’s helping foreign students to sell book ends, or advising a veteran worried about his G.I. Bill, or counseling men students about per¬ sonal problems, the personable dean is one of the most popular adminis¬ trators on the campus. From protons to personnel Page 20
