COLLEGE OF ARTS AND SCIENCES DEAN SWIFT There is probably no better known figure on the campus than Dean Elijah Swift, now serving his twenty-third year at U.V.M. Calm, imperturbable, he has been at all times ready to provide counsel and a helping hand to any student. Winner of a traveling fellowship in Germany, Dean Swift earned his Ph.D. at Gottingen, taught seven years at Princeton before coming to Vermont in 1914. This is Dean Swift's last year of active duty at the University' of Vermont as he will retire in July, 1948. It is with great pleasure that the students dedicate the 1949 ARIEL to Dean Elijah Swift.
