REETINGS AND FAREWELL TO THE GRADUATING CLASSES OF 1924: HI shall always deem it a misfortune that our association has been so brief and our opportunities so few to become acquainted. We have been together for but eight short months. Upon occasion we have passed one another in the corridors and on the campus, but this has occurred so infrequently that we are like unto Nships that pass in the night? The college has become so large that it is difficult, if not impossible. for a member of the faculty to meet and know well each student even for a brief period. I wish that it might have been possible for me to have known each and all of you, not alone as graduates of the college, but as acquaintances and friends. I hope that you are carrying away with you enduring friendships 'with members of the faculty and student associates; I also hope that you have come to love the San Jose State Teachers College as those love it Who have gone before you; because nothing sweetens life more than beautiful memories of the past. This, you will more fully ap- preciate in years to come. You are entering upon the most important service that can be rendered to man. You are casting your lot With those Who have dedicated their lives to the task of developing the bodies, the minds, and the souls of the children Who are destined to become the citizens of the future. The Teachers College has expressed its faith in you by honoring you With its diploma of graduation. I know that you Will keep well the faith and that you Will render to humanity a service that will be an honor and a credit to you and your Alma Mater. Sincerely yours, E. R. SNYDER, President APRIL 9, 1924.
