Greetings to the Senior Class T TH the publication of this volume of the Longhorn another chapter in the history of the Agricultural and Mechanical College of Texas comes to a close. The achievements of another class become a part of the permanent records of the institution. have The contents of this volume are not only an expression of the ideals of the class that is completing its work, but there is revealed within these pages much of the life and activities of the class and their accomplishments through the years of their college residence. College life today comprehends a multitude of activities. The routine of textbook preparation, attendance upon recitations and lectures, and long hours of laboratory exercises constitute only a part of the busy life of the student. A thousand and one activities, including athletic events, memorable social occasions, unusual experiences that can occur nowhere else but in college hll the student’s life with interesting events and crowd his mind with memories that will enrich his experience through all future years. A college annual serves the purpose of epitomizing the activities and experiences of campus life. As the passing years tend to dim the memories of these cherished events the college man from time to time will turn back to the pages of his annual and refresh his memory with the incidents of these memorable days. This volume of the Longhorn will become increasingly indispensable as a souvenir of college days. The members of the Class of 1925, as well as the rest of us, will look to these pages in after years and recall with tender memories our association together. The members of this class will take from academic corridors and class rooms the blessings and the prayers of those of us who have known you during your college days. We shall watch your progress as you climb the ladder of success. Our faith in your future is fortified by our knowledge of your high purposes and line aspirations while you were in college. As the reports of your successes come to us from time to time in future years, we shall turn back to the Longhorn of 1925 and recall some of our associations together and then give thanks to the God Who directs the destinies of men and gives them courage, fidelity of purpose and devotion to duty, and for His goodness to the loyal sons of A. and M. Faithfully yours, W. B. Bizzell, President of the College. Page 23
