Abstract
At the 1931 meeting of the National Association of Deans of Men in Gatlinburg, Tennessee, a spirited discussion about the preparation needed to be a dean of men took place. Most of the deans of men expressed the belief that the best preparation to be a dean of men was to be “born” to the position. In short, the assembled deans believed that specific training or even graduate education would do little to prepare a man to be a dean if he didn’t have the right temperament for the job.1
