Page 24 text:

DR. REES EDGAR TULLOSS became the seventh president of Wittenberg College in 1920. His record during the ten years of his administration constitutes the biography of an aggressive administrator. Splendid new buildings in a wisely planned and carefully landscaped campus offer material evidence of his success as a builder. Systematized organization marks his ability as an executive. Love and admiration of men in all walks of life testify to his qualities as a man. Well endowed by nature with those characteristics which make a leader of men, Dr. Tulloss acquired the training and temperament which equip him so admirably for his service to the institution. Dr. Tulloss graduated from Wittenberg in 1906, leaving a splendid record of achievement in athletics, activities, and scholarship. Graduate work was pursued at Hamma Divinity School, Harvard University, and Johns Hopkins University. A pretentious building program, greatly increased en- rolment, and a successful endowment drive are some of the outstanding features of the decade under the guidance of Proxy Tulloss. t !‘ag Tutnly

They maintain an attitude of kindly helpfulness, and still do not tolerate disciplinary laxity. It requires a woman of unusual ability to perform the duties of the Dean of Women in a co-educational institution. Firmness, sympathy, tact, efficiency, are a few of the necessary attributes. Dean Ruth Immell has combined these attributes to a marked degree in coping with the problems of her position since 1924. Charles Gallitin Shatzer, Dean of the College, is general supervisor of academic matters. Educated at Wittenberg College. Susquehanna College, and Chicago University. Dr. Shatzer returned to his alma mater as Professor of Geology. He became Dean of the Col- lege in 1914. Undergraduates since that time have known him as a scholarly, human, and eminently fair administrator. Benjamin H. Pershing, as Dean of Men. has contributed much to the religious and social well being of this college community. Dean Pershing has been a source of encour- agement and assistance in his present position since 1926. Page Tuenlij-luo
