Byron KIGHTLY TRIPPET A.B. (Wabash) A.B., M.A. (Oxford ) Dean. of the College i ore than anyone else or any other thing, Dean Byron K. Trippet is the personification of the spirit that is the basis of this college and the reason for this college. He is a father and a brother to every student—never too busy to listen to any problem. Any faculty committee meeting can wait as long as there's a single student waiting to see him. He is what every Wabash man wants to grow-up—and grow-up is the term—to be. Sometimes he and the Diety are referred to in the same breath in jesting—but there is some- thing about him that inspires complete respect, trust, and faith. Most memorable of all of the things that happened at Wabash during the year was, without any doubt, the Dean's three chapel speeches. All of us gained a new concept of what this college of ours really is, what it means, and what it is for. Caleb Mills lived again across several decades. Francis Cayou's spirit sent chills down the spine of every man that has ever seen a Wabash foot- ball game. These were unforgettable moments!—created by Mr. Wabash.
