X X x 'xi X 'NN x--X Xwx AD I ITR TIC The administrative staff of lVashington and Jefferson College is composed of a group of industrious, energetic persons who are solely in- terested in students receiving the best, possible education. The building housing this staff, a monument to the tradition of VV. 8: J., is a hum- ming, active center of legal and official business - the muscles which co-ordinate the faculty and student body. Ralph XV. Thomas, as Dean of the College, is responsible to President Patterson for the establishment of academic and extracurricular activities. He sets the courses of study, confers with juniors and seniors about their qualifications toward graduation and advanced study, supervis- es all registration and schedules including finals and classes, sees that the college activities do not go beyond the limits of their respective budgets, and prepares approximately two-thirds of the annual catalog. Dean Thomas interviews all stu- dents who wish to transfer from another school, often spending several days evaluating an incom- ing boy's credits according to the Jay standards. ln general, it may be said that the college evolves around the office of Dr. Thomas - Cle- pending on his files, advice, or jurisdiction in all important matters. Always willing to discuss a student's problems, Dr. Dudley R. Johnson is now completing his sophomore year at lvashington and Jefferson College. Many anxious freshmen have found the solutions to their schedule or curriculum diffi- culties after a brief consultation in the small office in the far south corner of the Administra- tion building. Since his stay at Jay, Dean Johnson has become an away from home' father to any- one seeking aid or advice. Among his many duties as academic advisor, Dr. Johnson is familiar with every student's scho- lastic standing and frequently corresponds with parents about a boy's progress at this college. He also is the co-ordinator of extracurricular events and encourages strong participation in all campus activities. Finally, Dr. Johnson has the responsibility of managing the dormitories and securing suitable proctors and assistants for Hays and Mellon Halls. Since advancing from the oflice of Director of Admissions, Mr. Kenny Wieand has accomplished a remarkable measure of success in his one year as Secretary of Alumni. He was assigned the task of organizing the entire alumni of the oldest BOYD CRUMRINE PATTERSON, Ph.D. President of the College 20
