pun mammmmamam THURMAN D. KITCHIN, B.A., M.D., LL.D., F.A.C.P. President and Professor of Physiology The record of the man who directs the destiny of Woke Forest College is too well known to warrant recital in these poges From a family famous in its own right, Thurman Delna Kitchin upholds splendidly the best traditions bequeathed him by a father and two famous brothers. Even those who have been associated with him since he assumed the Presidency can little estimate the value of the services he is rendering. Leave to coming years and future historians the story of the man and his work — saga of courage and vision, an epoch in the history of a great institution.

m mm DANIEL BRYAN, M.A., Ph.D. Dean of fhe College and Professor of Education THE SCHOOL OF LIBERAL ARTS For fourteen years Dr Bryan has served the college as Dean, moulding the characters of Wake Forest men, and inspiring love and confidence in all with whom he comes in contact. His work under three presidents has caused members of the faculty and student body to admire him as strong counselor and o real man His cooperation ond far-sightedness are doing much to advance the standing of the school in every field. The largest division of the college, the School of Liberal Arts, embraces a total of thirteen distinct departments of instruction with a student enrollment of nearly 925 and a faculty of 34 including five teaching fellows The oldest unit of Wake Forest, this division has operated since the founding of the college in 1834. During the 103 years since the doors of the institution were first opened thousands of men have gone away to make brilliant records as teachers, ministers, journalists, men of business, and as citizens of the state and nation. Sixty-four years of success- fully training men elapsed before the college ' s first professional school — the School of Law- was added in 1894. Eight years later, in 1902, the second professional unit of operation the School of Medicine- -was established Despite the fact that the two professional schools hove grown to amazing proportions during their comparatively short period of existence, the School of Liberal Arts has grown along with them in both prestige and numbers The faculty has enjoyed numerous additions, and the stu- dent enrollment has kept pace Physical equipment is altogether complete, numerous additions in buildings and in work ma- terials hoving been made within recent years. The newest additions are Woit Hall, housing fhe odministrative offices and classrooms, a remodeled old gymnasium that now serves as headquar- ters for the Social Science Department, a new gymnosium serving students in all three college divisions, and a new dormitory that houses five fraternities.
