Our Favorite Teacher The class of 1953 is proud to have chosen Russell McGaughey for its favorite teacher. His vivid examples of modern democracy in action have given us a basis upon which to build a conception of citizenship. No man can teach a subject which he does not understand and believe. Mr. McGaughey is active in community, church, and school activities. Many teachers finish their day when the last bell rings, but not the master of room 214. Many evenings he has stayed to discuss problems with troubled students. Several of our class members who suffered severe illnesses are indebted to Mr. McGaughey who visited and comforted them whenever possible. In the Senior Problems of Democracy classes, many of the achievements of Clarion State Teachers College are stressed as our favorite teacher is an avid alumnus. Normally not an outspoken man, Mr. McGaughey has often stated that he believes a college graduate should be judged on his ability and not his degrees or his Alma Mater. A man with the high ideals and the fundamental honesty of our favorite teacher will long be remembered by the students who attended his classes. —Bernard Taylor 28 The Echo
