Mrs. Heidbrink llIt's part of my life? was the answer given by Mrs. Heidbrink when she was asked whether she liked her job. Her duties are fivefold: she plans President Kretz- mannls calendar, makes his traveling and hotel reserva- tions, acts as official reporter for the Board of Directors, assists with moving the huge piles of correspondence which must be referred to various areas of the campus, and she has under her jurisdiction the operation of the University switchboard. She remarked that she used to know the names of all the students on campus. But now, with the growth of Valpo, she just can't meet all the students.
