Biographical / historical:

In 1919, the president reorganized the college. Part of the reorganization was the elimination of the deanships of the general faculty, the graduate department [RG 22], the academic department, and the applied science department. To replace these deanships, the position of Dean of the College was established. The Dean of the College officially assumed the responsibilities of the Dean of Students position [RG 8/2], which was created in 1923 and abolished the next year. Unofficially, the Dean of Students' responsibilities were shared with the Secretary of the YMCA [RG 31/10/26]. From 1926-1937, the duties of the Registrar [RG 5/2/2] were handled by the Assistant to the Dean of the College. The Dean of the College position was abolished in 1949.
