Dean, James

Japanese: ディーン（英語表記）Dean, James

Born: February 8, 1931, Marion, Indiana
Died: September 30, 1955. American film actor from Paso Robles, California. Full name: James Byron Dean. He gained charismatic popularity as a symbol of the 1950s youth who were confused but pursued their ideals. He lost his mother at the age of nine and was raised by his aunt and uncle who ran a farm in Indiana. After graduating from high school, he studied drama for two years at the University of California, Los Angeles, and then moved to New York at the invitation of actor James Whitmore to receive acting training. While appearing in the Broadway play The Immoralist (1954), he caught the eye of film director Elia Kazan, who cast him in the lead role of East of Eden (1955) at the age of 23. His performance as a struggling teenager brought him to stardom and he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor. In his second film, Rebel Without a Cause (1955), he played a young man disillusioned with society and with nowhere to go, and he became a revered figure as a spokesman for the young people of his generation. Just after finishing filming his third film, Giant (1956), he was involved in a head-on collision with his beloved Porsche and died instantly. He quickly became a legendary figure, and his popularity continues to this day in the 21st century.

[Died] February 14, 1979.
American business scholar. Graduated from Harvard University in 1929, he became an assistant professor at Indiana University in 1934 (he earned his doctorate at the University of Chicago in 1936), and was an assistant professor at the University of Chicago in 1939. Since 1945, he has been a professor of business and economics at Columbia University's Graduate School of Business and Economics. At the same time, he founded the Joel Dean Institute and worked as a management consultant. He investigated the effect of the production technology structure on the cost process in modern industrial production, denied the existence of the U-shaped cost curve in traditional cost theory, and proved that marginal cost has a constant value over a wide range of production volumes. He also established a system of business economics centered on the dynamic investigation of price policy, and proposed the internal rate of return method in capital investment theory, becoming a pioneer in that field. His major works include "Statistical Determination of Costs" (1936), Capital Budgeting (51), and Managerial Economics (51).

In many British universities, the term refers to a professor or chairperson. At Oxford and Cambridge, the term refers to a fellow who oversees undergraduate students, and in this case, the junior dean is the assistant. In the United States, the dean of a college manages all educational activities and is responsible for a wide range of matters, including personnel, curriculum, student admission and graduation, budgets, and facilities. The dean of a university faculty or department is sometimes called a chairperson, dean, or chairperson, but has almost the same responsibilities as in a college, and in faculties, he or she is also responsible for coordinating guidance for graduate school admissions. The dean of a graduate school must supervise dissertations and coordinate issues that span multiple faculties, departments, and comprehensive departments such as humanities and natural sciences. Some universities have administrative deans and faculty deans who assist the president.

イギリスの多くの大学では首席教授ないしは議長役を果す者をいう。オックスフォード大学やケンブリッジ大学では学部学生を監督するフェローをさし，この場合にはジュニア・ディーンが補佐する。アメリカでは，カレッジのディーンは教育活動全般を管理し，人事，カリキュラム，学生の入学・卒業，予算，設備など広範な事項に関して責任を負っている。大学の学部・学科のディーンは，場合によっては議長，学部長，学科長などとも呼ばれるが，カレッジの場合とほとんど同様の責任を負っており，学部ではそのほかに大学院進学指導の調整の責任が加わっている。大学院のディーンは，学位論文の指導や，複数の学部間，学科間，人文・自然などの包括的な部門間にまたがる問題の調整機能を果さなければならない。大学によっては，学長の補佐役として管理ディーン，学部ディーンなどを設けている。
