PROVOST HENRY H. HIBBS, Provost As Dr. Hibbs ' forty-first year comes to a close, we see many signs of the progress the school has made under his direction. None can watch the construction of the two new educational buildings without being aware of the constant, tir eless effort that he has put into the constant growth of the institute of which we are all very proud. ASSISTANT to the PROVOST Mr. Curtis Keesee, Jr., is the newest member of the administrative staff. hHe arrived during the summer of 1957 and immediately began the many duties that his title implies. Many of the freshmen got to know him as the Di- rector of Admissions and a large number of the upper classmen had the opportunity of knowing him as a teacher of Education. CURTIS G. KEESEE, JR., Assistant to the Provost
