Title
Prof. Carlson: Director of Engineering
Description
When Bergethon first started as President, he 'assumed the duties of dean of arts and science, temporarily performed by Dr. Harold Streeter during the interim presidency. Professor Frederick W. Slantz stayed as dean of engineering for another year. Under these arrangements the president was directly in charge of faculty personnel and budgetary matters for arts and sciences. Professor Slantz continued to manage these concerns for engineering. After a year Dr. Bergethon replaced the dean of engineering with a part-time director of engineering, Professor H. Maurice Carlson, in charge of coordinating the teaching activities of the engineering departments. He took upon himself direct supervision of personnel and budgetary matters for the entire faculty. The president was then, in effect, his own dean of faculty.' (Gendebien, p. 389)
