These Deans chart your course First, you see these deans and professors in flowing rohes. somber-faced, bound for convocation. Slowly they proceed toward the platform in an atmosphere charged with the silence of tradition. The procession ends in little bridges and the professors assemble on the stage. Convocation begins — and they become merelv faces on a stage. Next, you see them in class. The faces become sources of facts, dates, great ideas, biting satire and subtle wit. Students who receive instruction from these men associate facts w ith faces. The heavv eyebrows of one professor mean Shakespeare to a thousand stu- dents. The kindly smile of another might recall the battle of Hastings. Soon the undergraduate learns that deans are people: they too attend an university. Men of true wisdom know that learning never ceases. With this understanding in mind, professors share with students oaken tables in the library grassy spots in the shadows of foliage. They realize that the future is a challenge to courage, to intel ligence. to foresight. In attending the university, men arm themselves for the battle with the future and to labor, hand in hand, w ilh persons who have travelled the road before is one of the most inspir ing phases of college education. Students will recall these instructors much as the camera lens has captured a momentary expression. It should not be difficult to associate these pictured expressions with )ur remembrance of the facial reactions of the men with whom miu have studied. DR. ALBERT S. RAUBENHEIMER Dean of the College of Letters. Arls, and Sfienres
