Board of Deans as is as F THE group of men and women who perform the administrative duties of the University, the deans occupy positions of particular responsibility to members of the student body as well as to the faculty. Frank A. Neff, shown in the top lefthand corner of the page, is the senior dean of the University. Dean Neff, who came to Fairmount College in 1911, is Dean of the College of Business Administration and Industry. He is also professor and head of the de- ,f- ' Hmm-...Y Maw-43 'wld- X :gi PAGE I8 partment of economics and business administration, and performs an additional service to the University as the faculty manager of athletics. Miss Grace Wilkie supervises the details of at- tendance, grade standing, and social activities of the women students at the University. She is, in addition, professor and head of the department of home eco- nomics. Dean of the Fairmount College of Liberal Arts and Sciences is Dr. Lambertus Hekhuis. His teaching ac- tivities are concerned with the department of re- ligious education and philosophy of which he is professor and head. ' As Dean of the College of Education, Leslie B. Sipple directs the training of the numerous teachers who are each year sent out from the University to various public schools throughout the state. Dean Sipple is professor and head of the department of education and the director of the Universityis Summer Session. Thurlow Lieurance is widely known as a composer and conductor. At the University, he holds the po- sition of Dean of the College of Fine Arts. He also has teaching duties as professor and head of the de- partment of music. Earl K. Hillbrand is well known to graduate as well as undergraduate students of the University. He is the Dean of the department of extension, and is, in addition, a member of the regular faculty as a pro- fessor of education. Each year additions to and changes in the faculty bring to the University new people with whom the deans will work. These administrative officers who are so closely associated with campus life are able to assist the newcomers to better understanding of and adjustment to the feeling, atmosphere, or attitude of the University. This year the University welcomed a large group of men and women to their first year on its teaching staff. Byron Cooper came to Wichita as an instructor in geology. Another instructor in geology, Robert Rigg, joined the faculty last fall. Early in the second semester Mr. Rigg resigned from the faculty in order that he might accept a position with an oil company in the Near East. He was replaced by Stewart H. Folk, a University of Iowa graduate. Two new members were added to the English department last autumn. They are Lucille M. Gos- sett, instructor, and Frank Nelson. Helen Hanson, laboratory assistant in botany, and Glen Moss, laboratory assistant in Zoology, appeared on the staff for the first time. Mrs. Hildegarde Lewis, who is well known as a dance teacher and choregrapher, became an assistant in the women's physical education department. Harry I. Marr, line coach, and Dr. Lawrence Rarick, assist- ant professor, were added to the men's physical edu- cation department. Each of the new faculty members has received and will continue to receive guidance and support from the deans of the University.
