SIR H And whatsoever you do, do it with your whole heart, as unto the Lord, and not unto men. Col. 3:23 In Memory of Donna Rae Welch Born December 18, 1944 Forme to live is Christ, and to die is gain, Phil. 1:21. Died January 22, 1966 In Dedication to the Dorm Parents If dorm parents are a mood, that mood is patience and perseverance. They are not strangers to knocks on the door at any or all of the twenty- four hours, ringing door bells and the perpetual excuses for lateness, counseling and crying sessions, shared laughs and necessary dis- cipline. Nothing less than dedica- tion to God and a genuine love for young people could bring persons to a job like theirs, and George Fox College has been blessed with two such sets of dorm parents, possess- ing both dedication and love. It is to them we gratefully dedicate the 1966 L'Ami. Everett and Charline Craven have for several years been in charge of lovely Pennington Hall. Mr. Cra- ven doubles as a professor of Christian Education, and Mrs. Craven is Dean of Women as well as being advisor of Kappa Tau, the women's organiz- ation on campus. Ralph and Carol Arensmeier, affectionately termed "Mr. and Mrs. A" by Edwards Hall residents, are in charge of GF's newest dormitory. "Mr. A" serves as college financial advisor, and his wife is an advisor to Kappa Tau. The chemistry class (top) spends an afternoon in the lab.

President Ross To the George Fox College student, President Milo C. Ross is a man of many occupations. Students often see him taking part in chapels, or guiding a visitor around the campus. Every now and then, one finds him weeding flowers or laying bricks for a planter. Students often pass by the signs he painted for the Fine Arts Buildings. They are pleased when the President greets them by name, showing the personal interest he takes in each student. Students also observe him in the role of a sports fan and team supporter at many George Fox games. However, another side to the President's position at George Fox has even more impact on the lives of stu- dents. President Ross has continually demonstrated his ability as a leader. His twelve years at George Fox have resulted in many accomplishments and scores of changes in the college. Enrollment has increased four hundred per cent, and the faculty-student ratio has changed from one to seven in 1953 to one to twelve this year. George Fox College has achieved regional ac- creditation based on the latest criteria with no limita- tions. The campus is unrecognizable to those who saw it last, before Dr. Ross became President. Under his leadership, thirteen buildings have been built or re- modeled. George Fox students can be proud of the fact that this progress has not been made at the expense of the Christian stand the college has taken and the spir- itual impact which enriches their lives. A look of determination characterizes President Ross. Sheldon Louthan is Dean of Students. President Ross speaks at the dedication of Calder Center: "On this auspicious occa- Leads Administration Forward Every week four men meet to make important deci- sions affecting each student and faculty member. This is the Administrative Committee, composed of the Dean of Administration, the Dean of Faculty, the Dean of Students and of course, the President of George Fox College. The Dean of Administration is Frank C. Cole, who is concerned with development and maintenance of facilities and equipment. Two new buildings, Heacock Commons and Calder Center, were dedicated this year. For the first time, each faculty member had an office where students could reach him. At the beginning of the year, Dean Cole was confronted with problems as the new dining hall was not ready for use and chairs had not arrived for the lecture hall in Calder Center. Dr. George H. Moore, the Dean of Faculty, meets with the chairman of each division to discuss problems and suggestions for improvement. He directs the in- structional program at George Fox and initiates candi- dates for the faculty. He is concerned with the quality of the academic program. His job is an important one, for the faculty determines the type and quality of educa- tion a student can receive from his classds. The Dean of Students, Sheldon Louthan, has juris- diction over student affairs, dormitory policies and dis- ciplinary actions. He advises student government as a Here the Administrative Committee, composed of Dean member of Student Council and the Campus Relations Louthan, President Ross, Dean Cole, and Dean Moore, Included in his department are the deans of Committee. meets in President Ross' office. men and women, the head residents of the dorms, the school nurse, the dining services and financial advise- ment.

At George Fox College, students are fortunate to have a Christian faculty with a concern for each one of them. This con- cern leads the professor %o strive to be the type of teacher who can influence students in a positive way. Besides attending the regular weekly faculty meeting, faculty members also participate in a faculty seminar program once a month. The purpose of this program is to stimulate the effectiveness of teaching, as well as to inform the faculty on matters of general interest. Also, every Monday during the activity period, faculty members meet voluntarily for a faculty prayer meeting. Faculty members serve as advisors to students as they plan their curriculum. Many also serve as advisors for classes or for student organizations. There are several committees on which faculty members serve. Under the direction of the administration are the Athletic Committee, the Chapel Committee, the Student Affairs Committee, 'the Academic Affairs Committee, and special committees. There are also faculty committees for such things as admissions and scholarships, the Intensified Studies program, student guidance and orientation, and many others. Plans for the social life of the faculty are made by the Faculty Club Committee. This commit- tee is appointed by the President each year. Besides planning socials, the committee is in charge of providing refreshments for seminars as well as arranging for flowers and cards to be sent when needed. Once a year the faculty goes out together to eat. The end of the school year is aptly celebrated with a picnic. Div.
