Gralapp takes a sort of "Mr.

playing a major role In shaping
the Uvea of students.
"One of the greatest satisfactions
that accrues from a teaching ca
reer," he said, "is seeing young
men and women Who were under
your tutelage making their mark
in the world. 11 has been my good
fortune to have taught quite a
number of persons who are now

Oralapp believes that more

by the American Education Asso

"We are all concerned over Ihe

young man or woman who likes to
