Four major departments are un der the new post—student affairs, military students, student activi ties, and the Basic Division. The change is designed to “bal ance student life programs for military and civilian students and to expand the work of the Basic Division to include all classes,” according to President David H. Morgan. A faculty committee is now look ing for a man to fill the position of Dean of Student Personnel Serv ices. Until they find one, the president will serve in the posi- !ion, with the departments report- ng to him. Qualifications for the job say he fust be “a man with special train ing and experience in student per- snnel work, guidance, counselling ad psychology.” The new organization was effec- tii Sept. 1, but the new dean will prbably not be picked before Feb- ruW, and possibly not until later, sai\ Henderson Shuffler, system intonation director.

L. Penberthy, former dean of men, this department will contain intramural athletics, clubs and or ganizations, Town Hall and other music activities, student conces sions, and other organized student activities, such as dances. • Commandant of Cadets—This remains essentially the same, with Col. Joe E. Davis, commandant, supervising the tactical officers and the students who are in the corps of cadets. • Basic Division — The counsel ing and guidance facilities of the Basic Division have been expanded to all classes, instead of just fresh men. For this part of its work, the Basic Division will report through the Dean of Student Per sonnel Services. For its pegular academic work, it will report through the dean of the college. Also under the supervision of the Dean of Student Personnel Af fairs, but not in departments, will be the college YMCA, student pub lications, placement and student labor, and the college hospital and health program. Included in this new organization are the consolidation of the place ment office and the student labor office into one office, and the ex pansion of the college hospital to provide a complete health program. The Memorial Student Center will remain as it is in the present organizational set-up, under its own board, reporting directly to the president. Minor details of the new organi zation have not yet been worked out, Shuffler said. “This is just the overall plan,” he said.
