T0 the Students of Carolina: The graduating class of 1958 has witnessed a iimomentum of progress, at the University of South Carolina, developing out of the iinest traditions of the past and responsive to the un- matched opportunities of the present. But no University can afford to rest content for a single instant in these days of sweeping change; it must look constantly to the future. Our University, therefore, recognizes that its guiding policy must be the undeviating adherence to a Vigorous pro- gram which will assure us a position of eminence among the institutions of higher learning in this country. At this juncture in history, we have an un- paralleled Challenge to exert our leadership by aiming at still higher standards of excellence, and by persevering in the intellectual and edu- cational self-examination required by today,s rapid changes and advances. The Trustees, the Administration and the Faculty are deeply aware of this responsibility. This GARNET AND BLACK records for our 1958 graduating class a period in which they can justifiably take pride-a period which has brought spiritual, intellectual, and social enrichment. It evidences the superb qualities and achievements of our student body and their full and varied life on campus. It records the high calibre of our faculty. Finally, it gives full expression to the devotion and spirit of closeness within our university family-a family in which every gradu- ate is a very important member. It is my sincerest wish that the lives of our students and faculty alike have been deeply en- riched by their residence on this historic campus. ROBERT L. SUMWALT, Acting President.
