proved graduate assistantship teaching program which will, he said, lead to higher selectivity of graduate students, most of whom teach part-time during their study here, and to provide them with as much guidance and counseling possible in their teaching roles. The responsibility of seeing that the department and college administrators get all the qualified faculty members they need to staff their programs will also fall into Dr. Hubbard's work schedule. He believes that academic freedom and research are essentials for maintaining a university that functions as a source as well as a reservoir of knowledge. He also believes the University faculty must cope with the problems that arise from knowledge growth. He himself was instrumental in developing a new course in the College of Engineering which will explore the inter-relationships between technology and culture. Dean Hubbard has been a leader in community activity as well as the University. He has just completed a year as president of the Kiwanis Club, a year in which the organization initiated a sheltered workshop program and started a Boy Scout troop at the School for Severely Handicapped Children. He is chairman of the committee of education at the Methodist Church and was formerly Sunday School superintendent. He has played in a city volleyball league and now, "to keep in halfway decent shape," he rides a bicycle to work. "Snow and ice stop me," he said, "but not the temperature." His home is about a mile from Old Capitol. His interest in Boy Scouting is evidenced in the fact that three of his four sons are Scouts (the fourth isn't old enough) and two of them have received the Eagle Scout award. He and Mrs. Hubbard, the former Wynonna Griffin of West Des Moines have five children. The oldest, Philip, 19, is a freshman at the University; the rest all attend University schools. They are Christine, 17; Michael, 16; Ricky, 14; and Peter, 10 - Phyllis Fleming, '56A Cedar Rapids Gazette [photo] 20 RICHARD SOULWARE
