College of Letters and Science {eting Dean, Harold L. Axtell Tee Senior College of Letters and Science has made progress consistent with the general advance of the Uni- versity. Special events in its career have more to do this year with the change of deans, necessitated by the death of the former dean, Martin Fuller Angell. To fill this posi- tion, Harold L. Axtell, Ph.D., long with the University as professor of classical languages, has been made acting dean. The change in the administrative head of the school has not, however, materially affected the program or pol- SA icy previously followed.

Dean of Faculty Dean Jay G. Eldridge Dian Jay Glover Eldridge heads two departments of the University, being the Dean of the Faculty and chairman of the Junior College Executive Committee. Due to the standardized type of work done in both divisions—the Junior College and the administrative work of the Dean of the Faculty—it is difficult to pick out any particular points as indicative of progress during any given year. It may be said, however, that in both divisions an attempt is continually being made to keep abreast of educational and administrative trends in proportion to the general advance of the University. A lifetime spent in the educational field and nearly thirty years’ experience on the faculty of the University of Idaho have given Dean Eldridge a superior knowledge of the University and special ability to solve its many problems. The Junior College has functioned without material change since it first became a part of the university plan. It was the desire of the President that it proceed without change this year and that previous policies be followed, in order that work would be interfered with as little as possible. Reorganization in the future will be made rather slowly in order to avoid disconcerting changes for the students. The work of the Dean of the Faculty consists largely of advisory and administrative functions. Since it is held by the dean longest in the service of the University, it is in a sense an honorary position. This year there have been certain duties incident to the change of administration which have demanded special attention. Yet the best indi- cation of progress has been the efficient manner in which Dorothy Rouse work of the department has been accomplished. Gecrciars ee ————— Page 23

bettie’. College of Agriculture Dean Edward J. Iddings At least two things stand out as an indication of the progress made this year by the College of Agriculture, one of the oldest units of the University. First, the enrollment of the school has increased 26 per cent over last year. Second, there is the record of maintaining the position of high standing among western universities in winnings at western livestock shows, both with student judging teams and livestock entries. This latter record is emphasized by honors gained at the Pacific International Livestock Exposition and the Ogden Livestock Show.
