DEPARTMENT HEADS The vital role of the department heads cannot be overemphasized. Their never ending interest in standards, student activities, reference mate- rials, and curriculum is responsible for much of Wilkes' rapidly improving position among liberal arts colleges. To aid them in this, they bring a wealth of specialized training and experience, as well as study, travel, and teaching the world over, thus giving them the cosmopolitan viewpoint so essential to the well-rounded development of the student. Two new department heads were welcomed this year, Dr. Smith as head of the Education Department, and Mr. Detroy as head of the Music De- partment, both of whom have made possible even more varied courses than were heretofore available.

So much depends on our teachers- our learning to think logically, to make sound judgments, to discover values to live by. Better than any other single group, they can demonstrate that education is that something that lingers behind when all that has been taught has been for- gotten. For that reason our faculty have been selected for their knowledge of the subjects they teach, the breadth of their experience, and the quality of their interest in stu- dents. iTheir academic preparation includes advanced work at many of the nationis great universities. The unique personalities of many of our teachers enriched our college days; and, unless we're very much mistaken, we'll remember them with advantages in the years that follow. This year, new members of the faculty included Mr. Bunn, Mr. Crane, Mrs. Gutt- man, Mr. Mokychic, and Mr. Young. K A LORNA HOLBROOK Engineering Sociology
