Deans With gentle hands a form of law bestow. The Dean of the Faculty is the leader of the academic community over which he presides. Dr. Carl Reuss, Wart- burg ' s dean of the faculty, is the man who keeps the college abreast of the times in growth and in development of the curriculum. He seeks to improve the faculty and the divisions, advises and recommends the department heads, and consults with the president of the col- lege. Mrs. Barbara A. Schick, d.ean of women, is overseer of all the women ' s activities on the campus. It is from her that women students receive their out-of- town permits, excuses, as well as their counseling and advising. She also has charge of the Women ' s Judicial Board and other student committees. Mrs» Schick is the final authority on women ' s hours and housing. The subject of primary concern to the dean of students is the student. Mr. Earnest F. Oppermann, dean of stu- dents, co-ordinates college inter-relations with students, including admissions, health service, dormitories, annexes, pri- vate residences, the direction of social affairs, the control of student organiza- tions and publications, student aid, the administration of scholarships and grants-in-aid, student counseling and ad- visory service. 14
