PRESIDENT OF THE COLLEGE 4 Life has many dimensions but one of the most important is that of time — past, present, and future. An institution such as Wesleyan has an unusual relationship to this dimension. :for in a very real sense it is a custodian of time. Within the sacred walls of its buildings and within the bounds of its campus it must preserve the richness of tradition, while at the same time foster a vital present and project a hopeful future. It is our privilege today to be a part of this creative process — a process that con- tributes much to each of us while requiring even more. As we are nurtured by the past we are challenged to make this hour a fruitful one and the future one of promise. Out of our present efforts we build the structure of tomorrow — a future in which our highest dreams and expectations may find fulfillment. May this issue of the MURMURMONTIS serve as a bridge between yesterday and tomorrow and may you find in its pages a reflection of happv days spent on campus. Stanley H. Martin President 13
