As head of G.U. he is com- pleting an expansion pro- gram and is working on a social security plan for state university employees. Al- though he shows a deep con- cern toward his duties as a college president, he is never too busy to take a personal interest in his students. Ck lo- rado university is proud and fortunate to have this ambi- tious and capable president. 20

administ ' i ' al ' ioii The faculty of the university is sym- bolized in the Coloradan card theme as the highest card in the deck — the Ace. The professors, instructors and administrators collaborate to provide the prime ingredi- ent for collegiate success — education. The ranks of the administration kept pace with the expansion of the university in 1952. Over 1200 staff members were listed on the university payrolls. Education in the classroom is only one part of the vital work performed by the administra- tion. Staff members provide leadership in activities and organization, supervise living conditions and discipline, and friendship to the college students. The Aces work under the direc- tion of the taxpayers of the state and determine the poli- cies for the school. Because of space limitations, the yearbook is unable to pay pictorial tribute to all of the staff members, but recognizes the value of this group. (jo{yuU JOAN JEFFERSOK 19
