With tha present yearly
increase in the coat of living, we
must expect the budget of the
college to increase each year,
just to keep from falling behind
the coneequeocee of money
being diverted to the MAical
School are tragic. Wa stead to

tTyrma of the college. The dean,

willing to fight to maintain the
status enjoyed by the Ltfiaral
Arte College
Finally, the dean serves aa
head of the faculty, and he
exhibits cooaiderable influence
upon the direction taken by the
faculty. In our time, the
constantly in flux concerning Its
objectives The instability of the
job market, combined with the
latest advances in technology,
have made awareness on the
part of college officials regard
ing these charging objectives
mandatory. Furaaigbl baa be
come a neceasity to predict
future educational trends. The
dean should exhibit tha leader
ship necessary to lead tbs
faculty in pursuit of tbs i e levant
education; while at the same
time, keeping an eye out for
its might change the nature of
the education being offered. Wo
should expect our new dean to
have the foreeight and leader
ship ability to lead the college in ,
pursuit of a relevant and
meaningful education.
Within the next several
weeks, sre could see important
developments being made con
cerning the hiring of a new
dean. While we have e chance,
we should make our wishes
known to thoae who will *
interview and recommend the
candidates. We know about the
problems of University-wide ,
communication, the fiscal pro
blems with the medical school,
and tha foreaight necessary to
prepare for future graduating
classes. Tha student body
should look far a dean with the
ability to facilitate communica- »
tion between students, faculty,
and Administration; the willing
ness to fight to maintain the (
persent status of the Liberal
Arts College: and the farsight to
lead this college in the pursuit
of s relevant and meaningful •
education of all its students.
