Excerpt from The Epitome, 1936, Vol. 60 A dry catalog of a man's career and accomplishments can but present a very inadequate picture of the man himself. There is lacking the vital element which distinguishes a real per sonality. In Dr. Emery's case the outstanding qualities were an engaging affability and a con scientious devotion to duty. Towards faculty and students he was always kindly, fair, courteous, and sympathetic without in the least being gullible. He demanded a great deal of himself and expected much from others. He was an able administrator, an excellent committee man and a capable presiding officer. His knowledge of business methods and parliamentary procedure was supplemented by a generous fund of common sense and an almost uncanny faculty of getting at the crux of a situation.
