1 Ruth Ann Dodsworth STUDENT GUVERNMENT l As elsewhere the return to peace, and to peace- time pursuits here at the College, was not easy. Instead of labor troubles, the student and fac- ulty administrations had the honor of welcom- ing a large group of veteran students: but at the same time' had the trials of re-orienting this large group, that soon outnumbered other stu- dents, into college activities. By the end of the second semester there were over eight hundred and fifty students at the College as compared to the previous high of approximately seven hundred. Of these 800, the men, for the first time in three years, out- numbered the women. Yet this large increase was not the end. Even as room was being made for those students who came back this year. plans were allowing for over 1200 students to attend the College next year. To meet this influx, the faculty administra- tion and trustees okayed the building of a new mens' dorm to be ready for next year's students. In spite of this great increase in the schools' population, classes ran as smoothly as ever, and slowly the student government integrated the newcomers into an all-college program. All students took part in the ASCPS elections, said to be the hottest in many years here at the College. Mixers, Dances, Games, Campus Day, the,Senior Sneak: all of these instilled into each student some of the friendly spirit of the College. By the end of the year, all could truthfully say that indeed the College of Puget Sound had lost none of the cordial, friendly atmosphere that made every student feel as though he were wanted here on the Campus.

FACULTY ADMINISTRATION A With the great increase in the size of the Student Body came the necessity of an increased faculty: Several new faculty members were added to the staff by June, and Dr. Thompson came from back East where he had been inter- viewing members of the teaching profession Dr. R. Franklin Thompson with the promise of Hfteen new faculty mem- bers for next year's enrollment. Another-new feature was the adoption of the plans for the new Men's Dorm by the board of trustees of the College. This structure is to be built sometime this year. ' ' .
