1U e soon conic to L znow D ECEMBER 1, 1940 was the day—that President William C. Hansen took up his duties as President of Central State Teachers College. Since then he has been unceasing in his efforts to increase efficiency of the college, both in the administration and the student divisions. Preceding his coming to C.S.T.C., President Hansen was superintendent at Stoughton, Wisconsin. Other educational positions he has held are many and varied, giving him a wide background for his present work. He may be likened to the proverbial son, for in 1911 he graduated from C.S.T.C., only to return in the capacity of President in 1940. Thus, to students of C.S.T.C., we can call him an example, par excellence, and an inspiration for us. President Hansen, in the few months he has been here, has done great things for C.S.T.C., and will do greater, for he has the complete cooperation of students and faculty. — 17

'ecut MR. H. R. STEINER MRS. E. PFIFFNER 13 ON'T look at the picture above, and imagine the following combination: a beaming smile (wide and everlasting), a hearty handshake, and a genuine chuckle. Now add a good sprinkling of mirth-quaking iokes (the humorous kind), a line (fisherman's), and—well, there you have our genial Master of Ceremonies —Dean Steiner. Mr. Steiner became Dean of Men way back when—or, ALMOST, and has been guiding the men students of C.S.T.C. through woeful worries since. Although we can't verify Mr. Steiner's alleged possession of a rich bass voice, we do know that he constitutes a one man cheering section on Schmeeckle field (he's a member of the Athletic Committee and an ardent football fan). PrIOR to 1940, Miss Mary Neuberger had been acting as nurse and Dean of Women. Last year Miss Neuberger was unable to devote much of her time to Deaning , since the health offices were enlarged, and her services were needed there. Because of her excellent work in the guidance department of the local high school, Mrs. Elizabeth Pfiffner was asked to become a member of the college faculty and to act as Dean of Women. During this, her first year at C.S.T.C., Mrs. Pfiffner has admirably won the confidence of and counseled the women students. Next year she is planning to inaugurate a guidance program with the purpose of training our future teachers in high school guidance work.
