Dean of IV077l67l Fred H. Turner , Dean of Stz1de11t.v Mrs. Leah F. Trelease Edward E. Stafford Dean of Men THE DEANS The major duty of the Offices of the Deans is to counsel individual students in regard to personal prob- lems, especially those outside of the academic Held. Each student has the opportunity to see the Deans at any time for friendly advice on any phase of university life, including social, scholastic, and financial problems. Dean of Students, Fred H. Turner, stands at the head of Dean's activities. Work' pertaining to campus events, social affairs, fraternities, extra-curricular ac- tivities, organizations, and employment are among the many concerns of his office. Dean Turner has been associated with the Dean's office since 1922 when he was graduated from the University of Illinois and be- came an assistant Dean of Men. In 1932 he was awarded the full title of Dean of Men and more re- cently ithe title of Dean of Students. Dean Turner is nationally known for his authoritative doctorate thesis on the Illinois Industrial University, for his surveys of student life which have been published in current magazines, and as a popular speaker on student life. He is very interested in student organizations on the campus and is a member of the Illini Board of Control. On a national scope Dean Turner works actively on 26 the Educational Advisory Committee of the Inter- fraternity Conference and is secretary of the National Association of Deans and Advisers. This year Mrs. Leah Trelease has taken the active position of Dean of Women after serving as Acting Dean of Women last year. However, her popularity here on campus had its beginning before this time since she previously taught English courses at the Univer- sity. In a short time Dean Trelease has won the ad- miration of all the coeds at Illinois by her straight forward sincerity, her sense of humor, charm, and understanding. Her concern for the welfare of women students is shown in her interest in housing, scholar- ship, and special activities. Edward E. Stafford has been Dean of Men since 1944. His job has reached a tremendous height with the arrival of thousands of veterans on campus this year, but in spite of the rush at his oH'ice he is always ready to see students and places the welfare of all men students as his foremost concern. His success and popularity as Dean of Men can be attributed to his wide experience with university life and students and his genuine interest in each individual student.
