Transcript | Ramon A. Vitulli Registrar Dr. John C. Allred Vice President, Dean of Faculties Edward Holley University Libraries Director Dr. Carroll Zabel Research Director Academic Division Boasts Increase in Research, I Faculty, Offices Hiring a faculty from the 1930 drop in birth rate generation for a student body from the post war baby boom is the problem facing Dr. John C. Allred, vice-president and Dean of Faculties. The Dean supervises the appointment of over three-fourths of the university employees as well as academic and research programs. Since 1962, the number of full time teachers has nearly doubled and the percent of teaching fellows has risen from 15 to nearly 33 percent of the faculty. This is due to the growth of the university and the increased em phasis placed on research outside the classroom. Dr. Allred stresses that a professor has to be a researcher in order to be a good teacher. This year, faculties have been aided by the opening of new office space and rapidly expanding research programs such as Project Themis for computer programming. Officials other than the deans of colleges reporting to Vice President Allred are the Registrar, the Director of University Libraries, Director of Research and Director of the University Computer Center.
