IN MEMORIAM DR. JAMES F. WILLARD Professor of History When a man is able at sonne tinne in the short space of this life to attain the heights of his profession, he is truly honored. Should he be strong enough to guard and main- tain that position for a considerable period, his worth and ability are effectively proven to a skeptical world. But a man who is able to reach the top in his chosen field while still in his youth and then to hold h;s post for more than a generation should certainly be measured among the truly great. Dr. Willard came as a young instructor to the Univer- sity of Colorado in 1906; in 1907, he was appointed the head of the department, and for thirty years he has served the school and has developed the hllstory Department from comparative obscurity to one of the really outstanding groups on the campus. He has left a vacancy which can never quite be filled. A great man has left us. 2

REGISTRAR Service is the unwritten motto which hangs over the office door of the Registrar and Counselor. Standing at the center of the campus, our office includes service to all students and co-ordinates the work of all administrative departments. Information, publicity, records, statistics, averages, admissions, reg- istration, and a thousand and one other services are rendered by competent clerks and assistants. Our counseling work touches the lives and interests of nearly ail the students who register in the University. Through correspondence, personal visits and interviews not only the students enrolled but also many young people of the State of Colorado who contemplate entering the University are given information and aided in making their decisions. Our best wishes go with the seniors upon their graduation. We shall miss their familiar faces amongst us. FRED E. ADEN, Registrar and Counselor FRED E. ADEN, Registrar and Counselor 23
