Jack-of-All-Trades' Describes SU Official JIM FQXD, the SU’s assistant director, is in his third month at the new position. Last year Pond was head counselor at Morton Hall By PHIL IIAGEK Emerald Feature Editor The University's new assistant SU director will be a sort of “jack-of-all-trades.” These are the words 26-vear old Jim Pond Chooses to describe his 2'2 months-old job, the job he’s been on since July 1. He was appointed to the position just be fore school was out last spring. Pond, at that time, was head counselor at the Morton unit of Earl Hall. His main duty will be advising cimpug publications: the Em erald, Oregana. Pigger's Guide, and Ore-Nter. In this capacity he will be a non-voting member of the publications board. His other duties, he feels, are “hard to define.” He's in charge of SU administrative offices, and in Director Si Ellingson’s absence, Pond will run the SU. This summer Pond helped co ordinate SU facilities with the University’s summer recreation program. Leaves Iowa Pond was torn in Dubuque, Iowa. Later his surroundings changed from cornfields to palm trees—he moved to Beverly Hills, Calif. After graduation from Beverly Hills High in 1947, Pond went to UCLA where he received a B.A. in history in 1951. His next four years were spent in the claims division of the Prudential Life In surance corpor ation in Los. Ange les. Last fall Pond came to the Uni versity for graduate work in his tory, also taking the counselor’s job at Morton Hall. His work as head man at Morton undoubtedly was a push in the right direction toward his present job. He himself says that the coun seling job has helped him in word ing with the students and in get ting better acouainted with cam pus organizations. Works Easily Pond’s approach to dorm prob lems has been cdlled "low-pres sure.” But “low-pressure" or not he gets the job done. University officials generally concluded that his counseling work was "outstanding." Dean of Men Ray Hawk said that he was “pleased and flattered” that a counselor was picked to fill a job that came with a change in the SU personnel and organiza tional set-up. Pond says he’s "well-pleased” with his new job. If this year goes as smoothly for him as his last one did, the people he works with will be “well-pleased” too.
