DEAN OF WOMENS STAFF Miss Harriot Glassor Miss Elizabeth Teal Pitt women, entering the post-war period with plans and dreams of further building of both school and social life, look to the Office of the Dean of Women for the return to normal. Miss Helen Pool Rush, Dean of Women, has noted the trend back to the schools .as wartime employment standards are replaced by higher qualifications. In observing the changes the new peace is bringing, Dean Rush viewed the return to normal not as a retracing of the pattern of the pre-war day3, but as a return to the conditions which promote progress. An increased social program was planned by Miss Harriet Glasser, who advised the girls about outside activities. Nationality Room hostesses are being trained by Miss Mary T. Walton. Miss Elizabeth Teal is handling the employment and housing difficulties that arise during the change to normal conditions. Mrs. John Ross is at the desk in the information room; and Miss Ruth Becker and Mrs. Lucy Millard, secretaries, are keeping the correspondence in order. The Office of the Dean of Women is well equipped to meet the new demands placed upon it by this back to normal atmosphere. Mr . Millard and Mi Bockor Mi Rcbln on, Ml V alton and Mr . Ross

HELEN POOL RUSH DEAN OF WOMEN Nov that the war is over, and men have returned to the campus in large numbers, the women are once again in the minority. This calls for adjustments on the part of the women. Classrooms, corridors, and Tuck Shops are so crov ded that space is at a premium. The women will have to yield some places of leadership. But the gains are far greater than the losses. The advantages of coeducation are theirs again —a chance to work and play with the men, a chance to think together on common problems. This is the essence of student life in the University. Helen Pool Rush 22 Miss Rush and Assistants

FIFTIETH ANNIVERSARY OF WOMEN AT PITT We the students of the University have heard Stein Sisters, Twelfth Floor and Fiftieth Anniversary many times this year, for this year is the Fiftieth Anniversary of Women at Pitt. For during the fifty years since Stella and Margaret Stein entered Pitt, women have been given equal education in all fields, opportunity to prove their ability and the right to stand side by side with men in the University. Now there are women in every course offered by the University and they have made a place for themselves in University life. In activities or studies, they are always eager to do their share of the work. This year Pitt women had as their goal the finishing of the Twelfth Floor. The twelfth floor is where Pitt women may go to read and relax, study and plan for teas and parties. Miss Helen Poole Rush, our Dean of Women is ever present to see the girls retain the high standards that are identified in Pitt women. Chancellor Fitzgerald wishes the women at Pitt to succeed. He supported and attended the Nixon Benefit. Our girls study, work, and laugh together. A part of Pitt, our WOMEN. 24
