Dean of the College To students, the distinguishing line between adminis- tration and faculty sometimes seems vague. Adults in education, whether teaching or handling problematic details appear one step removed from the every day Wheaton life. But this is only a student view. Evidence that proves the contrary may be found in the office of Dr. Fadenrecht, Dean of the College. He deals with the difficulties of faculty and administration and acts as negotiator and advisor for both. A position that demands viewing every situation from two sides, with one unified purpose. John H. Fadenrecht, Ed.D. Dean of Students Ready for a cup of coffee or a conference, Dean Volle never separates himself from the Wheaton of the stu- dents. In his office, he deals with the details that make his. job wearisome. In the Student Center he joins a table of students or professors for a three o'clock time out, and he makes regular appearances at the games. Student complexities may involve an overly enthusiastic snowball fight or a more serious student-parent con- ference. One thing remains the same in every situation; Dr. Volle is ready to talk it over and help in any way possible. Arthur H. Volle, Ph.D. WITH THE DEANS

Dean of the Graduate School Graduate school, with its deeper responsibilities and more serious concern for learning provides the unique need for a leader that combines scholarship, adminis- tration and ministry. A need which Dr. Tenney so capably fills. In efficiency and devotion, he rivals his most dedicated student. In grad chapel his stable, consistent influence is difficult to explain. A well-chosen hymn, a quietly intimate talk with the Savior, these typify the character of the man who heads the Graduate School. Merrill C. Tenney, Ph.D. Dean of Women Dean Smith listens with quiet respect to the tales of tangled pers, explainable late minutes, and academic difficulties. When she can help, she does so. When she can't, she says so and explains the reason sympatheti- cally. The problems differ—pink or green or blue per slips, a five-day meal ticket or a Stupe ticket, an un- happy freshman—but the approach never differs. Al- ways interested, always honestly concerned. Daily, Mrs. Smith proves that the proper and the prac- tical do not contradict one another; whether at an Evans’ Hall dorm banquet or an impromptu chat on the walk to Blanchard, the Dean of Women blends dignity and genuine warmth.
