Report of the Dean of the College of Liberal Arts 21 Report of the Dean of the New York State College of Ceramics. Executive Committee of the Board of Visitors of the New York State Agricultural and Technical Institute*. The general health of the faculty and students during the year was exceptionally good.
The numerous faculty changes will be noted in the report of the Teaching Power Committee. McLane served as acting director of the latter while continuing work with the men. There are 54 on campus doing the first year's work and 35 in partnering hospitals.
In his report, the dean of the College, as usual, argues for a more adequate and extensive Music Department. The main obstacle to the work of the College of Ceramics for this year was the small enrollment, about one-third of the normal number.

Anderson, head of the floristry department, on (military) leave from the armed forces. Aylor, an instructor of secretarial studies, resigned to accept a similar position in the University's College of Liberal Arts. Activities among the organizations of the College of Ceramics were quite limited due to the insufficient enrollment of male students.
The president of the university sent a short message, which was mostly read at the ceremony. When he retires, the president plans to finish his research and write a century-long history of the university. In 1945-46 he will be District Governor of the 171st District of Rotary International.
He plans to continue his stay at Alfred for most of the year. The financial support of the University from trustees, whose means and influence enabled them to do so, has been such that.

Thus, twenty-eight additional students were included in the Extension enrollment this year. I present my report as Dean of the College of Ceramics on the management of the college for the year 1944-1945. Another disappointment is the underachievement of girls in engineering courses.
It is appropriate at this time to look at the long-term trend of the enrollment situation. The only non-curricular student activity that operates in the College of Ceramics is the Ceramics Guild, which is an organization of design students. They will meet with the writer and staff of the Ceramic Engineering Department on May 16.
This is done by a committee under the association reviewing the specialties and selecting the best one. We finally settled the matter of how much money had to be deposited.

Leighton has submitted an extensive report on the geology of the deposits in the western half of New York. Leighton and Professor Dickens will make a similar survey of the eastern half of the state. Eventually a book will be published that will provide comprehensive information on all the state's deposits.
This National Geological Survey project will likely take two years to complete. I believe that the foundation of the Student Union is also responsible in no small measure for this enthusiasm. Bartlett Dining Hall has been open since the beginning of the second semester.
Women attending Ag-Tech School as well as those from colleges were under. The rules for their behavior in the hospital were adopted in consultation with the supervisors of the two hospitals.

NOTES ON ACTIVITIES
The effects of reduced enrollment due to the war were reflected in circulation figures for the year ending April 1. Daniel Lewis, '69, was hung in the Reading Room, in recognition of the part played by Dr. William Semple of Canisteo spoke in the chaplain's absence and that of May 16.
REPORT OF THE DEAN OF THE SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY 47 Seventh Day Baptists who expect to enter next fall. In this year, four young men, graduates of the Faculty of Theology, were ordained to the gospel ministry. It was the Dean's privilege to attend and participate in all these services.
We believe the Commission, and all those interested in the future of the denomination, are justified in this insistence. I hereby submit my annual report as Director of the Bureau of Appointments for the year 1944-1945. The absence of the soldiers on campus this past year led to more attention being paid to the regularly enrolled students.
During the winter, eight teams participated in a basketball league representing virtually all the men on campus. Since April 9, three members of staff have completed a special course for school bus drivers. This phase of the work has included repair, maintenance and construction, cf. agricultural machinery.
During the past ten months, two members of the staff have partnered with Cornell University Extension Services. Two of the four new buildings planned for the institute's post-war expansion are included in the state budget for the current year. Over the past several months, several members of the staff have collaborated with Cornell University and officials from the G.
