As. Mineral Industries College Dean
David, R. Mitchell, de l an of the
College of Mineral Industries, will
relinquiih this. post on Aug.l 1 to
devotefull time to , his role as
chairman of 'the Division of Min
eral' Engineering. He ;has filled'
both positions for the past 18
months.:'
I HE WILL be succee4ed as dean ,
by Richard H. Jahns, j now asso

dent Eric A. Walker said.
In addition to - his Administra
tive duties, - "Jahns will continue
his research into I thei origin of
pegmatites, the granites pushed
through the earth's surface by as
yet unexplained forces. , •
Jahns joined the University
staff in. 1960 as profesior of #eol
ogY and chairman 'of the Division
of Earth Sciences. He was named
aSsociatie dean of thel College -of

he said. Opportunities for the
poorer class must widen for im
provement in our society.
The growing demand of busi
ness for' people with 'a
college
degree is also accompanied by . a
major split between those - who
have an education and the have
nots without a degree. American
people tend to value an educa
tion as a status enhancement,
Packard said. ,
.
BESIDES THE CHANGES in
education, business and technol
ogy, he said that Anierica has - also
experienced great changes in the
'violent growth of population, in
crease in productive capacity,
higher spending on military and
!space projects and more unem
ployment.
Because of the growth of popu
lation .at three million per year,
more one-layer communities, of
the same class of people, are being
built around shopping centers in
the suburbs, Packard said. Thus,
the children in these communities
have little association with dif
ferent groups or clasSes, he added.

Mont Alto Program Extended
By DOROTHY DRAWER
The . Mont Alto campus will'
formally become ther.University's,
14th Commonwealth campus in
the fall term of 1963. Plans are
being formulated now to broaden
its academic program during the
months ahead, Kenneth L. Holder
man, coordinator of Common
wealth campuses, said recently.
THE SCHOOL of Forestry has
used the Mont Alto campus for
freshmen enrolled in the forestry
curriculum since 1929, Holderman
said.
While the campus will Continue
to be used by the School of
Forestry in the summer terms,
the,. expanded • program Includes
several two-yearscurriculums lead
ing to associate degrees, he added.
In addition the freshman year of
some of the four-year programs
at =the , University will also be of
fered at Mont Alto.•
. ,
Two-year programs in survey
ing, drafting and design technol
ogy will probably be offered,
Holderman said.
The new campus is located
north of Waynesboro which is in
the south central part of the
state. Mont Alto will probably still
be used by some of the students
enrolled in such. programs as
forest management and wood
Mitchell has been a member of
the University faculty since 1938
and chairman of the Division of
Mineral., Engineering since 1944.
He is the author of more than 100
technical papers on mining and
mineral preparation methods, as
well as the textbook, "Coal Prepa
ration." .
"DEAN MITCHELL is widely
recognized as one of the leading
mining authorities in the nation."
President Walker said. "Each time
we have called on him to assume
additional duties, he has respond
ed in an outstanding manner. His
tenure as dean of the College of
Mineral Industries has been
marked by significant achieve
ment."
For' example, he pointed out''
that during Mitchell's tenure a
new earth sciences building was
approved and moved through the
planning stages. More recently,
the college received a '5692,000
research grant from the Advanced
Research Project s Agency of the
Department of Defense.
