The alumni association as part of that strength, is the hfeblood of the University. Sparked by an able secretary, the alumni associa- tion furthers the ideals of graduates who are bound together by the regard they hold for their school, and their pride and desire to identify themselves with its part and future. The alumni association is an outgrowth of a desire on the part of former students to associate in a fel- lowship designed to foster the welfare of the Univer- sity, stimulate public action for its betterment, and promote the best interests of the club members. With the outstanding alumni publication, and the office situated on the campus, the association is able to provide graduates with almost any information relating to the University. It remains, during the years to come, a friend to the graduate. Secretary David L. Bingham carries on the intricate business of managing the Alumni Association. 19

Dr. Ronald Baiiiford The Graduate School was established in its present form in 1918 under the jurisdiction of the Graduate Council with the Dean of the Graduate School serv- ing as chairman. It was created for the purpose of administering and developing programs of advanced study and research. Some expansion of the graduate programs has taken place as the university has grown, yet the spirit and basis of each program is essen- tially that of individual study under competent super- vision. At the present time over fifty departments are authorized to offer graduate programs. The Graduate Faculty is made up of those mem- bers of the faculties of the various colleges who give instruction in approved graduate courses. Dr. Harold F. Cotternian Dr. Harold F. Cotterman has been at the University since 1917. Prior to that date he was a student at Ohio State, Wisconsin, and Columbia Universities. He came to Maryland as Professor of Agricultural Education. He has been Dean of the Faculty since 1946. To co-ordinate the academic programs and procedures of the University is his major responsi- bility. His largest special project was the general direction of the University ' s survey report to the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools. Of most interest to students, probably, was the experiment of discontinuing Saturday morning classes. Dr. Day Ehrensberger The College of Special and Continuation Studies is especially designed for those individuals who are not located sufficiently close to the university campus to attend regular classes. Those who are in close proximity to research laboratories are able to take advantage of the highly specialized advanced training which is offered in some areas. It gives personnel of the Armed Forces an opportunity to secure college credit which can be applied toward a degree. Dr. Ray Erensberger, Dean of the College, works to coordinate and satisfy the various needs of its students. With his headquarters on the University ' s College Park Campus, he oversees the activities of the different branches of this world-wide program. 21
