Of the students ai The Stout Institute, those most directly affected, perhaps, by present world conditions were the seniors. The program for senior women was changed to allow for a nine weeks' period of student teaching instead of the former units of prac- tice teaching and cadeting. Not only was the returning class depleted because of ord- nance plants and the draft board but also by the calling of the reserves. A mere hand- ful of senior men remained to graduate. But whether or not they were graduated, the knowledge these seniors acquired will help to win the War as well as the peace.

CLYDE A. BOWMAN Dean of Industrial Education Many know Dean Clyde A. Bowman as a veteran ot the World War. We know that he must have been a good soldier. We know, too, that he is an executive of superior ability, a real teacher, also, who can clarity any puzzle with one of his charts or graphs. After a long day of lectures and confer- ences, he devotes many an evening to the innumerable problems which come to a dean at any time, but in ever increasing numbers in war time. To his college duties he has added those of the Chairman of the Dunn County Civilian Defense Training School, as Well as other duties of which, We are certain, we hear little because he is too busy to talk about what he is doing. RUTH E. MICI-IAELS Dean of Home Economics In time of war, home economists are in demand. It is then that homes must be managed economically and foodstuffs must not be Wasted. Despite the rationing of food, we must maintain the nutrition stand- ards of our nation. In the Home Economics courses at Stout, not only nutrition but the care of clothing and of furniture are re- ceiving ernphasis. Dean Ruth E. Michaels has long insisted upon the thrifty use of supplies. In September, 1942, she recom- mended to her faculty a plan tor the wise conservation of time. There followed the revision of the curriculum with the acceler- ation of schedules and the introduction ot courses nine weeks rather than a semester in length. 9
