English term or phrase: Dean
Olay 1910 yılı Amerikasında geçiyor. Henüz karma eğitim bile yaygın değil. "Dean" için kullanacağım kelimeye karar veremedim. Dekan desem, son cümlede "Kızların binasında bir dekan var zaten" denmiş. Aklıma pek yatmadı. Ne önerirsiniz?
Teşekkürler.

So that poor child, having no natural guardian or protector, just set to work for herself — went to college to her heart’s content, to a foreign university, too. She studied medicine, practiced a while, then was offered a chair in a college and took it ; then — I hate to write it — but she is now president of a college — a coeducational college !
“Don’t you mean ‘dean?’” I asked her.
“No,” she said. “There is a dean of the girl’s building — but I am the president.”
