Biographical Sketch

A number of administrative changes took place in the last years of the Wildman administration. When Dean Edward Bartlett resigned in 1949 to become president of Iliff School of Theology, George B. Manhart was named acting dean for a year. Edgar C. Cumings came from the presidency of Canterbury College to assume that office until 1950, when Louis W. Norris of the philosophy and religion department was appointed to the position.
