WOODHOUSE Dr. Rex Winslow William D. Carmichahl Rbove the Rest E. ' ILLY CARMICHAEL left a lucrative seat on the New York Stock Exchange several years ago to come back to his Alma Mater as Comptroller. Since then he has guided the University through a period of critical financial anxiety. Called invaluable by the administration and the Navy, he has done top-notch work in consolidating friendships for a beleagured University. REX WINSLOW, fast-talking, cracker-jack economist brings to his classes a freshness and clarity that his students do not forget. As much as any teacher, Winslow has pointed the way to students confused on a war-geared campus. A refreshing, exhilerating professor, he keeps his classes above the usual hum-drum level. Students may never know what is going to happen next, but they keep coming back expectantly. Burdened by no pedagogical illusions, Winslow knows and likes his students — and they like him. Because he has been a stimulus both in his actions and his chats, DR. EDWARD J. WOODHOUSE deserves a real place on this page. His classes — held out-of-doors whenever possible — have been termed easy by many, but they have made a more lasting impression than many a fact-filled memory course. Always ready for a chat, always ready to recommend the book you want, always up to the minute on everything from world-affairs to the chances in the game with Duke, Dr. Woodhouse has been the ideal college prof in every sense of the word.
