Vice-Chancellor Few liberal arts institutions are fortunate enough to have as president a man who represents the scope of intellectual interest which it is their purpose to stimulate in their stu- dents. Sewanee is so favored in the person of Dr. Edward McCrady, Vice-Chancellor of the University of the South. The range of Dr. McCrady ' s activities extends from biologv and speleology to music, art. and theology. In previous years he has received international renown in his capacity as se- nior research biologist at Oak Ridge. Like a Renaissance man he moves with equal ease in these varied fields, and the re- sult is an emphatically negative answer to the modern myth of the specialized man. Dr. McCrady comes from a family closely associated with Sewanee. hut he was educated at the College of Charleston. B.A.. the University of Pittsburgh, M.S., and the University of Pennsylvania, Ph.D. The son of an Episcopal minister. Dr. McCrady has been most success- ful in combining modern science with Christianity. His in- fluence has extended far from bis Mountain home as the spokesman of the Sewanee ideal throughout the world. DR.
