1 ARTHUR S. POSTLE Dean of Men KATHERINE INGLE Dean of Women We present two of the better known people on the campus, the deans. Their duty is to listen to the complaints of students varying from grades to dates. Both work arduously to better the relations between students and faculty; both spend many hours each year in conference with students who need some aid besides that obtainable in the class room. Dean Arthur Postle, a man who is absolutely sin- cere in his desire to be helpful, is never too busy to listen to those who seek him. Whether his counsel is sought for a job or just for advice, his charming manner and frankness have made him a students ' favorite. Dean Katherine Ingle, a graduate of the University, and a daughter of former President Dabney, has made herself known to most girls. She has a reputation for cordiality, fearlessness and individuality. • Page 25

COLLEGE OF ENGINEERING COMMERCE APPLIED ARTS ROBERT GOWDY Dean New Dean of the Engineering School is Robert Gowdy, a product of U. C. An interesting man, very popular with the alums and students of the school, Dean Gowdy has chosen as his goal a con- tinuance of the ideals of the late Dean Schneider concerning cooperative engineering. Dean Gowdy is efficiency personified, but students know he is broadminded, and his keen and subtle sense of humor saves him from brusqueness. The Dean is addicted to books, guns, and music, but he has never dropped his interest in scholarship, despite his heavy duties.
