DEDICATION The Calyx staff dedicates this yearbook to Dr. William Webb Pusey, III, a man who has left an indelible mark on Washington and Lee University. Dr. Pusey retired last year after serv- ing as professor of German, dean and acting president during his 42 years at the University. At more than one time in his career, he held several titles at the same time. When he was acting president for six months in 1967 during the interim between Dr. Fred Cole and Robert E.R. Huntley, he was also professor, dean and chairman of the courses and degrees committee. As dean of the college from 1960-71, he was responsible for attracting supe- rior faculty members, expanding re- search opportunities, doubling the arts and sciences curriculum and creating the six-week spring term. Yet, after those 1 1 years as dean of the arts and sciences division. Dr. Pusey stepped down to return to the enjoy- ment of full-time teaching. He is a firm believer in the undergraduate education philosophy at W L and refused throughout his career to give up teaching an introductory course in German. I suppose the main reason is that I enjoy teaching beginning German; I ' ve done it almost every year since Ive been at Washington and Lee — I enjoy teaching students who are, by and large, enthusiastic about a new subject. Dr. Pusey is respected outside of the W L community as a distinguished scholar. He has written a book. The Inter- rupted Dream. The Educational Propam at Washingto7i College (Washington and Lee University) 1850-1880, and a number of articles and monographs on the German language and its literature. Currently he is researching the letters from Germany of Junius M. Fishburn who was a professor of Latin at Washing- ton College from 1852-1858. Moreover, Dr. Pusey always has taken an avid interest in the Lexington com- munity. He was a member of the Lexing- ton and Rockbridge County school boards, director of the local Bovs Club and founder and lifetime trailmaster of the Foxstick Hiking Club. Dr. Pusey once called Washington and Lee Utopia U. Certainly if the L ' ni- versity is close to achieving this ideal. Dr. William Webb Pusey, III, had a very large hand in getting it there.
