President Walter Hullihen, Ph. D. Born in 1875 in Woodrow Wilson's home town, Staunton, Virginia, President Walter Hullihen had a good precedent for entering the teaching profession.

4 President Walter Hullihen, Ph. D. Born in 1875 in Woodrow Wilson's home town, Staunton, Virginia, President Walter Hullihen had a good precedent for entering the teaching profession. His studies at the University of Virginia and, late, at John Hopkins University, were rewarded with a Ph.D. in He taught languages and mathematics in the University School, Baltimore, and at the University of the South from 1909 to 1912, at which time he became Dean of the Arts and Science School there. Since 1920 he has guided the University of Delaware as President. His activities in that period have also included the sponsorship of the Foreign Study Group in France and in Germany. Honors awarded him include: Doctor of Civil Laws from the University of the South in 1922 and Doctor of Laws from Temple University in He is also a Chevalier in the Legion of Honor.

5 The Deans SCHUSTER, SPENCER, DUTTON GEORGE ELLIOT DUTTON A graduate of the University of Delaware (Class of 1904), Dean Dutton did graduate work at Johns Hopkins University and at Harvard University where he received his Master of Arts Degree in At that time, he became connected with the English Department of Delaware which he has served in various capacities ever since. He was elected Dean of Delaware College in ROBERT LYLE SPENCER Dean Spencer was graduated from Iowa State College in Following that, he taught for six years and then engaged for a time in commercial engineering work. In 1928, he became Dean of the Engineering School of the University of Delaware. GEORGE LEE SCHUSTER Dean Schuster was born in the midwestern town of Middletown, Indiana. He was graduated from Ohio State University in 1916, with a degree of Bachelor of Science, and received his Master's degree in Science from the same institution in He continued his graduate work when he received a fellowship awarded at Cornell University in 1927 '28. During this period he was granted a leave of absence from the University of Delaware, where he was a member of the faculty. After graduating from Ohio State University, he served as assistant agronomist at the same institution for two years. Then he proceeded to West Virginia University, where he was instructor for the scholastic year , and came to the University of Delaware in 1920, where he took up the position of professor of agronomy. Thus, he has been in the service of Delaware College for eighteen years. He succeeded Dean C. A. McCue on July 1, Besides serving as Dean of the School of Agriculture, he is Director of the Experiment Station and Director of Extension Service at the university. 20

Business Administrator Charles E. Grubb Although appointed to his present office of Business Administrator in April, 1936, Mr. Charles E. Grubb has been connected with the University of Delaware for many years.

6 Business Administrator Charles E. Grubb Although appointed to his present office of Business Administrator in April, 1936, Mr. Charles E. Grubb has been connected with the University of Delaware for many years. In 1914, he was an honor graduate from the School of Engineering following an active campus career. While in college, he was elected to Phi Kappa Phi and was Editor-in-Chief of both the Review and Blue Hen. He was later elected to Tau Beta Pi. During the Commencement exercises of 1930, Mr. Grubb was awarded an honorary Master's degree in Civil Engineering. From 1918 to 1930, he served as Chief County Engineer of New Castle County and as the New Castle County State Highway Commissioner in which capacities he supervised construction and maintenance of roads and structures. In 1930, he became Engineer-Executive of the American Road Builders Association of Washington, D. C. and in 1934, Assistant Director, Projects Division, F.E.A., with offices in Washington. During all this time, he kept in close contact with the affairs of his University, so that in the short time since his appointment to his present position, he has already greatly increased the efficiency of the Business Office. His sympathetic, yet business-like and efficient treatment of student problems has established him firmly in the hearts of all those who know him.

7 BUSINESS GUIDANCE BUREAU Miss LOUISE HUTCHISON LT. COL. D. M. ASHBRIDGE (Story on page 168) NATIONAL YOUTH ADMINISTRATION MRS. BERTHA WORTH MR. CHARLES BUSH The National Youth Administration makes funds available for payment to needy college and graduate students in regular attendance at institutions of collegiate and university standing for part-time work during the academic year. The types of work to be performed and the selection of students to receive aid, within certain limitations prescribed by the National Youth Administration, are responsibilities of the authorities of the institution participating in the Program. At the University of Delaware, President Hullihen appointed Charles W. Bush to serve as the director and, assisted by Mrs. Bertha S. Worth, he has directed this work for the past two years.

8 THE ALUMNI ASSOCIATION MR. JACK MCDOWELL MISS MARY BURNETT The exact date of the founding of the University of Delaware Alumni Association is not known; however, it has been in existence continuously for several decades. While the Association has at various times gone ahead with progressive and determined strides, there have been periods when the advance toward its goal has been slow and retarded. In viewing the alumni associations of other colleges, we find that they have had similar experiences. During the past quarter of a century, in an effort to make continuous progress, many of these associations have established alumni offices with full-time executive secretaries. This act in itself naturally does not assure the success of any alumni association, but we do find that those which have been most successful employ one or more alumni workers. In April, 1938, as a result of the generosity and forethought of an outstanding alumnus and friend of the University, it became possible for an alumni office to be established at Delaware. This, however, is only the first step. In order for that office to carry on the purposes for which it was established, the whole-hearted and active cooperation of the men who have attended, and who will attend, Delaware College is essential. To you who will soon graduate, and thus automatically become alumni of this College, we wish to say that we hope the mere act of graduating will not sever your relationship with the University, but will, instead, strengthen your ties with it. Those of us who have completed our college course some years ago realize that for the next few years you will be busily engaged in making your real start in life. You may not appreciate immediately the benefits which you have derived from having been privileged to secure a college education. Some of you may be reminded of the fact that on each day of registration you paid a certain sum in return for which you were permitted to take courses and to secure credits which resulted in your being granted a degree. After a few years have passed and you see yourselves gradually rising above the level of those who have not been privileged to extend their education, the realiza- ('Continued on page 166) 23
