Economics DEPARTMENT HEADS s A connecting link between the administration and the teachers, the Department Chairmen play a vital role in Wilkes College's never-ending program of improvement. Wilkes' rapid rise to a place of prominence among the nation's colleges and universities is in no little part the result of their earnest eEorts. They have helped mold the high standards, the expanding curriculum, and the varied activities of the college. Theirs is the responsibility of planning a well- rounded education for Wilkes students. They have given Wilkes a cosmo- politan viewpoint, which comes from a wealth of specialized training and experience, as well as from studying, traveling, and teaching the world over. CHARLES A.

With the resignation of Herbert Morris, at new administrator has taken over the multitude of tasks which belong to the Registrar. John Whitby, a gentleman with ihiinite patience and systematic efficiency, has succeeded in maintaining the smooth organization which has always been characteristic of the Registrar's oiiice.

MAILEY, Ph.D. Political Science Teachers as well as liaison officers, these mature educators succeed in communicating their enthusiasm for their subjects to the undergraduate body and thereby enliven the College curricula. Not the least advantage of studying at Wilkes is the privilege of working closely with these men and women: thanks to the small size of the College, even freshmen may find themselves enrolled in courses taught by Departmeht Chairmen. This happy state of affairs, although it may interfere with the research in which they might otherwise be engaged, keeps the Chairmen in touch with the needs and interests of entering students and gives the freshmen a clearer view of their objectives.
