By keeping his curriculum in accordance with the changes in state and national law, Dean Pen- dleton Howard has maintained a high standard for the College of Law. His interest in changing legislation has led him to write a group of articles appearing in national magazines. Fifty students have been enrolled in the senior Law College. From other divisions this curricu- lum draws students who have enrolled in some law courses. Dean Howard, who has his Ph.D. in Public Law and Jurisprudence from Columbia University, says that he most admires the Idaho campus for its democratic spirit. Pendleton Howard Graduate School Charles W. Hungerford, who has been with the University of Idah o since 1909, earned his Ph.D. at the University of Wisconsin. He is dean of the rapidly-developing Graduate School. At present there are 150 students enrolled in his school working for their masters degrees in arts and the various sciences. In the future Dean Hungerford hopes to have sufficient facilities and teaching personnel to warrant the granting of doctorate degrees at the University of Idaho. He is very interested in plants and, as a hobby collected nearly 200 varieties of bearded irises. At present Doctor Hungerford is western vice president of the American Iris Society.

Already her outstanding personality and interest have made her one of the most popular members of the administration board. Through her many experiences, Dr. Miller has decided that the thing she most likes to do is to travel; she has been in many parts of the world. At Idaho she is impressed by the prevailing spirit of friendliness on the campus. Dean Miller is truly a capable woman, having received her B.A. and M.A. degrees at Stanford University and her Ph.D. ‘'sheepskin’’ at Colum- bia. Her laurels include the insignia of Phi Beta Kappa and Cardinal Key. Evelyn Miller School of Forestry Dean Dwight S. Jeffers of the School of Forestry has added to the School a camp that will be initiated this summer on the Moscow Mountain experimental! tract. By blending the benefits of this novel feature with those of the regular curriculum Dean Jeffers hopes to bring the School of Forestry to the point where it will render the highest possible service in training men of Idaho as prospective foresters of the state and nation. Among the 343 men enrolled in this school are nine research students. Most outstanding feature of the campus to Doctor Jeffers, a Yale University graduate, is its Dwight . deffers spirit of friendship. PAGE 27
