Jack M. Scott, 47, Marietta’s director of student services, died of a heart attack at his home on August 27, 1970.

A native of Louisville, Ohio, Scott was graduated cum laude from Marietta in 1952. He joined the college’s administrative staff in 1954 and served eight years as director of college-high school relations.

In 1962 he was appointed director of admissions and in 1968 was named to the newly created post of dean of services. In 1970 his position was restructured under the title of director of student services, with responsibility for admissions, financial aid, placement, the health center, the food service, the student center, and security personnel.

While director of admissions, he served a two-year term as president of the Ohio Association of College Admissions Counselors. He was a member of Phi Beta Kappa, national scholastic honorary fraternity; Omicron Delta Kappa, national men’s leadership honorary; Alpha Sigma Phi social fraternity; and the Association of College Admissions Counselors. He served as Marietta College representative to the College Entrance Examination Board and was the administrative representative on the College’s Special Study Commission. He had taken graduate studies at Ohio State University and DePauw University. A veteran, he was in the U.S. Army Air Force from 1943 to 1946 in the Pacific Theater.
