Vic OLIVER C. LESTER -President, Dean of Graduate School Dean Lester of the Graduate School is acknowledged by graduate students because of his kindly interests and encour- agement to those going into their higher fields of learning. His human sympathy equals his scholastic capacity. MAURICE H.

ROBERT L. STEARNS Dean of the Law School His successful years in the active practice of law combined with his thorough culture and academic background enable him to lead wisely the Law School and the State Bar Association.

BOARD OF REGENTS The Board of Regents of the University of Colorado is the governing body of the University. It is composed of six members who serve over a period of six years, two being retired each two years. By a constitutional enactment of the state, all members are selected by the popular vote of the people and are, therefore, independent of any state official. This method of selection differs in most state universities whose boards are chosen by the governor ' s appointment. Vacancies due to resignation or death are filled by the appointment of the governor. The Board is charged with the administrative affairs of the University, authorizing all business and assuming all responsibilities of this Institution. Meetings are held the third Friday of each month and also at the call of the President. Those on the Board receive no remuneration for their untiring services. MEMBERS MR. E. R.

JACOB VAN EK Dean of College of Arts and Sciences Dean Van Ek knows the rules and refvises to give way in any particular. He has made more enemies, perhaps, than any other man on the faculty; yet he can match them with the friends he has made through his shy, unassuming good nature. ELMORE PETERSEN Dean of School of Business Dean Petersen, efficiently busy, seriously amicable, holds the admiration of all his associates. Through constant eifort and faith in himself he has succeeded where others would have failed. HERBERT S. EVANS Dean of the College of Engineering Shorty Evans, the mighty mite of the engine school, is endowed with an infectious sense of humor, infinite wisdom without ostentation, an ability to impress his point and drive his plans through. He is largely responsible for the development of the electrical department to its present distinction.
