Page 12 text: “Hubrrp Wl. (©ooiienougjfj Ant Appreciation' As the year draws to a close, students of Simpson College find that they have a desire to express their admiration and respect for a professor who has, for six years, been a tireless source of inspiration to them,—Professor Goodenough, head of the English Department. We admire and respect the man because of the manifestations of his trained ability, which is the outgrowth of many years of study and preparation. In 1906, he gradu- ated from Obcrlin College, and in 1908, he received his Master’s Degree from Yale University. The following two years he taught at Simpson, after which he gave up his work here to resume his studies in Whitman College, Washington, and later in the University of Wisconsin. On account of his health Professor Goodenough was forced to rest from his educational activities and take up a farm, which he cultivated for two years. He is a man who by no means wasted his time, but made his vacation an oppor- tunity for individual, honest thinking which has been a wonderful source of benefit to those who have been fortunate enough to come in contact with him. Since this time Professor Goodenough has taken graduate work both at the University of Wisconsin and the University of Chicago. In 1913, he returned to Simpson, and has since done the school a great service as head of his department. Because of his education we respect the man as a man of intellect and training. We would wish to place far above this respect, however, that which causes us to ad- mire the man in his class room and in his personal life. In Professor Goodenough, many students have found that which has started serious, individual thought in their lives; opposed to all lethargy, he awakens in his students a realization of the problems of the world as they exist to-day, and a sense of individual responsibility to meet these problems that all things evil may be done away with. He is not afraid to voice his sentiments, and through his serious conscientiousness his ideas must necessarily appeal to the most selfish minds. His broad-minded and democratic ideas find expression in his own life, which is filled with thoughts of others, and this has enfolded the well- being of all humanity. It is for this reason we appreciate the remark of one of his students: “I find in Professor Goodenough the realization of my highest expectations of a college life.” For this broader vision we arc sincerely grateful and shall endeavor to show our appreciation through the better and bigger lives we may live for having been associated with such a man. ?
