president of The college We asked: Who is the Albright student? Where does he come from, but more importantly, where is he going and what is his relationship to the world around him? For the most part Albright students come from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, New York, and Maryland. Many students come from other parts of the United States and always some are enrolled from other countries. Students come from all kinds of homes-rich homes, poor homes, strict homes, indulgent homes, homes where the light of educational ideals burns brightly, homes where such light is dim, homes where religion is central and homes where religion is forgotten. Students have diverse abilities and varied talents, some well motivated and moving straight toward a clearly discerned goal, and others, lacking such motivation, aimlessly groping and wondering what college is all about. Many students are capable of self-discipline and cooperation, but a few are aloof. Some unselflsh and others untrained in the art of controlling their conduct and managing their lives. Students make drastic adjustments as they Ht into a campus program, learning to live in dormitories with others who until they arrived here were total strangers, and learning to walk under the leadership of unfamiliar adults who are members of the faculty.
