college of arts and sciences Our growth in the past five years has some- what overtaxed our administrative ma- chinery. We are all aware of annoying details, inconsistencies, duplications and even injustices. We are doing our best to repair the old machinery and to create new. In this work the students can help with suggestions and criticism. A frank and prompt complaint may develop into a real contribution to the improvement of our machinery. Your help is cordially solicited. George Pope Shannon. Dean G. P. Shannon graduate school The general policies of the Graduate School are determined by the Committee on Grad- uate Instruction. The Dean serves as chair- man of this committee and aims to keep informed on what is being done in graduate work in other institutions in order that he may offer sound advice when any change of policy is under consideration. Graduate stu- dents often find it desirable to consult the Dean concerning their programs, their majors, their minors, and other regulations. It is his duty to render such advice when sought or direct the student as to where the information may be found. B. F. Haught. Dean B. F. Haught
