THE VICE-CHANCELLOR The Vice-Chancellor is the executive presi- dent of the University. His job is perhaps the most varied and difficult of all the University ' s administrative positions and includes everything from installing new Gownsmen to extensive travelling to speak in cities all over the country. Dr. McCrady fulfills these very demanding obli- gations to the utmost and is the perfect repre- sentative of the Sewanee gentleman, scholar, and thinker. DR.

This entails coordinating campus housing and regulating matrons and proctors in the dormitories. DEAN OF MEN This year we have been happy to welcome back Dr. Robert S.

His jurisdiction falls in the realm of student relations and problems, and chapel and class attendance. Dr. Lancaster is also chairman of the faculty committee on discipline. DEANS OF THE COLLEGE
