Vice President The financing of a college and the resources a college draws from is the duty of our Vice-Presi- dent, James I. Ling. The tremendous expansion within the scope of the Wesleyan IMAGE in fi- nancial matters is under the experienced eye of Mr. Ling. He also directed the fund raising program that provided college growth following World War II. James I.

Treasurer Receiving student tui+ional fees, room and board costs, and payments of general college bills are some of the treasurer ' s duties. Mr. Heyward Williams, since it is he who receives the college in- come, is also responsible for directing the success- ful operation of the college ' s fiscal budget. With the expansion of Wesleyan ' s facilities, the growing duties of the treasurer widen and become involved and detailed. As the expansion plans of the Board of Trustees materialize, the importance of success- ful financial operation of the college increases — the next addition to the monetary responsibility being the additions to the men ' s residence accommoda- tions.
