ADMINISTRATIO Xxillllillll lf. Scott Dean of Students Ralph XV. Tyler Chairman, Department of Education Clarence H. Faust Dean ofthe College Zeus l.. Smith Assistant Dean ot the College r , .1 Robert Maynard Hutchins President of the Fniversity The Four Year College is under the same administration as the entire University, with the exception of those administrators solely in charge of the smaller college unit, Over- lapping of administration has been avoided, so that no units of the Four Year College have remained under the jurisdiction of the high school. Clarence H. Faust, Dean of the college, Zeus L. Smith, Assistant Dean of the col- lege, and William Scott, Dean ot Students are primarily concerned with Four Year College regulation and function- ing. Dean Faust has the important function of planning the curriculum for the Four Year College in his hands. Always a ditticult task when pertaining to a progressive school, this job has redoubled in importance the past year. with plans for a degree awarded at the end of the Four Year College necessitating a revamped acceleration of the curriculum, in- tegrating tnore closely Four Year College and previous University courses. The clos e proximity of Dean Smith to the realms of the Four Year College keeps him in constant touch with the curricular and extra-eurrieular activities of students. and it is through his advice that Dean Faust is ahle to make changes in program and faculty. Dean Scott's association with the Four Year College administration is more closely knit to the Lfniversity. He is Dean of stu- dents, and as such. entrance counsellor for the Four Year College. The administration and its program for the Four Year College tend to keep the last two year students apart from students enter- ing as freshmen from other schools. This program is rapidly establishing the Four Year College as a separate unit. which may some day take the place entirely of the pres- ent University education preliminary to a li. A. degree. ll

The Humanities Q, ' Gladys Campbell, A.M. John R. Davey, A.M. Knox Hill, A.M. Jere Cornell Muna Maxey, I'h.D. Mickel,A.M. The word Humanities long ago became familiar to all students of the Four Year College. It can conjure visions of maps and time-lines and reference books, but more frequently it brings to mind the splendor of Ancient Greece or the triumphs of the Six- teenth Century Spain. It recalls the romance of the Renaissance and the swift reforms of the French Revolution. It helps us to relive the past achievements and disappointments that even now influence our own life. The Humanities course, in three thorough years' work, tells the story of civilization from earliest prehistoric times up to the present dav. it deals with man's progress since the first discoveries of a savage, cave dwelling race, covering religion, art, inven- tion, music. and literature, as well as politi- cal. economic, and social history. This course also gives us an understand- ing of the struggles and dreams that have ever motivated human actions and directed the steps of men. Through the study of other ages and other peoples, we find out how our own era has been molded and developed. XVe are able to learn and profit by the mistakes, the wisdom, the decisions of nations that are now vanquished. Under the skilled guidance of Miss Maxey, Mr. Mickel. Mr. Davey. Mr. Thomas. Miss Campbell, Mrs. Senescu, and Mr. Hill, we of the student body are acquiring a rich background of knowledge that will better fit us to face the problems of today's world.
