Strommer, re cently named associate dean for student affairs in the College of Lib eral Arts, is a woman of varied tal ents and interests. The associate dean graduated from the University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill, with a B.A. She received the M.A. in English and Ph.D. in Renaissance drama from Ohio State University. In North Carolina, Dr. Strommer developed a radio program directed toward women. “I tried to get away from household and cooking hints,” she said. Her format included topics such as career women and women and the law. The program won the North Carolina Broadcaster’s Award of Excellence. Dr. Strommer actively partici pated in Boston in the National Or ganization for Women, a conserva tive women s lib organization. She was involved in the academic task force concerned with equal emp loyment opportunities for women in higher education. Dr. Strommer sees no conflict of roles when a woman works and is married. “Women should fulfill their poten tial and live their lives as they wish to without a predetermined role set for them,” she said. “My concern is that people, male and female, are able to be what they are most com fortable with.” The new addition to the faculty wrote a book on politics and lan guage, but she plans extensive revi sion during the next year due to re cent changes in the field. Dr. Strommer is interested in adoption and adoptive procedures. She and her husband have two adopted pre-school age children, a boy and a Korean girl.

He finds that the wife he deserted in 1931 and believed dead is alive and married to an American officer. “The Universe” has won 18 major film awards. It creates on the screen a vast, awe-inspiring picture of the universe as it would appear to a voy ager thru space. Friday, “The Moon-Spinners” (Hayley Mills, Eli Wallach, Peter McEnery) Hayley Mills becomes involved with international jewel thieves. Imprisoned by them in a dark, de serted windmill, she is rescued by the handsome young Englishman suspected of the crime.

Before long, three of Bree’s friends have been strangled and the quiet brea thing at the other end of her tele phone has become a menace as palpable and shadowy as the night. “Klute” is a powerful suspense thril ler.

In her spare time, the associate dean enjoys reading, cooking, sew ing and swimming. She plans to re sume riding horses now that she is in a more rural setting. “My chil dren occupy a good part of my spare time,” she said. Along with her duties as associate dean, Dr. Strommer will teach En glish 203 in the fall. “I feel it is too premature to talk about changes or new programs,” she said. “My con cern primarily has been to fully un derstand what has been done. I think one first has to know what is, before he can start talking about what may be. “I felt a sense of optimism at A&M which is missing in a lot of universities,” Dr. Strommer said. Since she most recently held a position at an urban university, she was impressed with the quietness and openness of the campus. Be cause she knew A&M was an old establishment, Dr. Strommer commented that she was surprised at the newness of the buildings. Dr. Strommer has taught in a var iety of institutions including a boy’s military school, a women’s college and a large city university. This man is special. JERRY H.
