The President's Ales sage Sitting m the president’s study across the desk from the “Little Mother of the Cam pus, my thought goes out to the far-flung homes of our hoys. From Alaska to Mexico, from Hawaii to Ohio, these homes have sent us their most treasured possession. II hat an expression of confidence. and with what devotion should we faculty and stu- dents—endeavor to measure up to expectations! My desire is that every boy may return to those at home as clean and wholesome as when he left. The dormitory experience surely tcaches him many a worthwhile lesson in social life and conduct as well as how to give and take. 'The experiences gained in the social sciences, music, student activi- ties and organizations bring out the finer qualities of appreciation with powers of leadership, initia- tive and honest endeavor. These qualities supple- mented by a technical training in which theory and practice are equally emphasized, enables our boys not merely to prepare for life but to really experience life here on the campus. With the cooperation of those at home the boys of the present are faithfully maintaining the splendid reputation of those who have gone before. They will take their places in the front ranks of those who build better homes, make better citizens, and lift human industry to a higher plane. Sincerely yours. Hen R. Crandall.
