FACULTY The faculty at Sewanee Is organically related to the life of the students, for here is to be found a very close and intimate contact between student and professor. Here at Sewanee the professor takes a profound Interest In his stu- dent and through the close personal contacts found only in the snnall university, he Is able to teach him as an Indi- vidual and as a distinct personality. We of the University are proud of our faculty and justly so, for In no other university of this size Is there to be found so competent a group of men as here. We realize that under the guidance of such a distinguished group of GEORGE MERRICK BAKER B.A., Ph.D., Yale. Dean of the College of Art s and Sciences and Professor of Germanic Languages [9]

FACULTY gentlemen, we are receiving that same training which has made Sewanee men the fine characters that they are; we are learning of principles and ideals that will live on after we are gone; we are learning those little philosophies of life which distinguish the Sewanee gentleman from the rest of the crowd. The development of mind and soul and body In an atmosphere of Christian culture Is the Ideal toward which we look and labor, and all this is made possible for us under the guidance and leadership of our Faculty. Without such a Faculty Sewanee would die, but we need have no fear of this for Sewanee Is as much a part of each one as he is a part of Sewanee. ii THE REV. FLEMING JAMES B.A., M.A., Ph.D., University of Pennsylvania. Dean of the School of Theology and Professor of Old Testament Language and Interpretation [10]
