The Administration The Administration Staff is the driving mechanism of the college. It is the Trustees who are responsible for providing buildings, grounds, and equipment; it is the Corp¬ oration which must see that maintenance and operations are adequate and efficient. It is the Administration which must finally approve important rules, policies, etc. It is they who must provide personnel for recruitment, selection, and admission of students; who must select and maintain an adequate and suitable faculty. The administration must keep all student records as well as business records. It must maintain an effi¬ cient office of public relations not only with the general public but especially with the businesses and industries which employ Worcester Polytechnic Institute graduates through the efforts of its })lacement office. Generally, the work done by the Adminis¬ tration is underestimated by the students; however, much credit is due for their fine work in conducting the affairs and business of our college. The present administration is composed of Alvin Elmore Cormeny, President of the Institute; Francis William Roys, Dean of Engineering and Chairman of the Faculty; Donald Graham Downing, Acting Dean of Admission and of the Students; Paul Richard Swan, Associate Dean of Admissions and of Students, and Director of Pub¬ lic Relations; Francis Joseph Adams, Secretary of the Faculty; Gertrude Rogers Rugg, Registrar; Arthur Julius Knight, Supt. of Buildings and Grounds; Robert Phillips Kolb, Supt. of Heat and Power; William Willard Locke, Supt. of Electrical IMainte- nance; Bonnie-Blanche Schoonover, Librarian; Herbert Piper Knowles.
