The teachers colleges are now awakening to the implica tions ot education for democracy. . . Faculties are taking a greater part in determining curriculums, policies, bud- gets, terms of employment and dismissal, and the like . . . The future greatness of the American teachers college depends upon the extent to which the faculties are inspired by democratic organization and responsi- bility to give their full energy and unhampered intel- ligence to the grave problems involved in preparing teachers capable of meeting the new day in educa- tion.

Student Tribute To us, the students ot this college, Dr, Townsend was more than an outstanding ad' ministrator, more than an emi- nent educator, more than one who spreads the doctrine ot personnel, To us, the students, he was a man, one who regarded oth- ers as individuals, seeking to know each tor his own worth. He was a leader who en- couraged leadership in others. He was a scholar, a student himself, sincerely believing that Who dares to teach must never cease to learn, I re- member his saying to us that he never entered this college without looking up and repeat- ing, Who dares to teach must never cease to learn. He was always proud ot his students-as he called us, his family, Many times from this rostrum we upperclassmen have heard him enumerate the out- standing achievements ot the group or ot individuals in the group. He was very proud ot us and we were proud in turn to thinla that we had measured up to his standards. He believed in the demo- cratic way ot lite, He was an active participant in numerous fields ot endeavor and by his very presence made others emulate his example. His was a lite ot unlimited service 3 a devotion to the cause ot education. We, the students, could pay Dr, Townsend no greater tribe ute than to dedicate ourselves to carrying out the ideals he has set tor us. IAMES R lVlcDERlVlOTT.
