IIIUIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIllllHlillllllllllllllll lllllllllllllllilllllll..................................................................................... lllllfiSI u An Appreciation of the President f HERE is a personal side to student life that is emphasized in our relations with each other and our relations with the officers of the institution with whom we come in contact during cur college years. This leads us to an expression of our appreciation of Col. R. T. Milner, the president of the A. M. College of Texas, who began his administration at the very time that this Senior class enrolled as Freshmen. He came to the College at a critical time in its history, and bringing together the scattered influences of a badly disordered offi¬ cial family, he harmonized interests that had to be harmonized to make for success. He taught friendship and good fellowship to us all by showing friend¬ ship and good fellowship himself; he has always had a word of cordial greeting and a warm handshake for every one; the homesick boy has received comfort from his words and the delinquent has found good advice in his office. Our mothers and our fathers have given him written authority as our College guard¬ ian and have urged us to follow the course he would outline for us. He is a kindly man, a careful man and a man of true affection. He has sustained us in our athletic relations; and counseling with our leaders, he has advised a dignified and conservative course when we were assailed. He has brought about changes in the College work that have made the courses at this institution stronger and better; has enacted revisions in the distribution of departmental work so that our course of study ranks higher and there is added value to our diploma. We speak of these things in appreciation of him as President of the College in which we as students and we as citizens own our part. He has made good in all things that have been required of him, and he is entitled to our respect and support while we are in College and our help when we go out to join the alumni and ex-students.
