Page 15 text:

As students and faculty members of Wisconsin State College in Milwaukee, we are rightfully proud of the dynamic personality who is president of our college, Dr. J. Martin Klotsche. Dr. Klotsche's deep interest in his fellowmen and his competent leadership abilities have made him a prominent figure in the field of public service. Possessing a penetrating understanding of world af- fairs, he has traveled extensively to participate in Institutes on International Understanding for Rotary International as well as to direct international student seminars abroad. In addition to a variety of other community activities, Dr. Klotsche is chairman of the National Education Commission of the Conference of Christians and jews, and recently has been selected the chairman of Greater Milwaukee's Planning and Development Committee. In keeping with his forward-looking spirit, last year he acted as Faculty Chair- man of the Summer Institute for Progress held at Bard College in New York State. With increased educational opportunities for all WSC students, his foremost concern, President Klotsche has played no small part in the most recent progress WSC has experienced, namely, the innova- tion of an Army ROTC program and the actualization of plans for a new library and laboratory school. The unprecedented advancement taken by WSC during the last seven years while Dr. Klotsche has served as chief administrator reveals that he unquestionably is a most valuable attribute to our college.
