BOARD OF TRUSTEES BLACKBURN, E. M., JR. President i WILSON, R. A. Vice-President WADDILL, G. M. Secretary-Treasurer KELLY, H. SIM McAFEE, C. LANE In the comparatively short time of the existence of Amarillo College it has grown to be one of the outstanding small colleges in the United States. From a meager beginning in the rear of the Municipal Auditorium, the college now has several millions of dollars invested in build- ings and equipment. This physical equipment, administered by men and women of proven ability and unsurpassed leadership, together with a student body that includes many of the leaders of our future citizenship, makes us, as members of the Board of Trustees, justifiably proud that we have had even a small port in the building and maintaining of this great in- stitution. mmmmpf mmmm ROBERTS, GUS R.

JOSEPH B. DAVIS, DEAN B. A., Central College M. A., Columbia University M. S., Northwestern University Students of 1951: The PALO DURO this year portrays student life during Amarillo College ' s twenty-second year. Some of the beauty spots of Palo Duro Canyon are pictured, along with beauty spots and interesting events on the campus. A feeling of permanence is an impression that any visitor to the Canyon gets. The signs indicating the millions of years that have elapsed since the outcroppings were formed denote that here is something that endures. The 1951 PALO DURO shows evidences of many enduring features of college life: friendships that develop when students work together in clubs or on teams; self-confidence and a desire for perfection that come as a result of sustamed effort; good habits of study and of budgeting one ' s time; tolerance or respect for the personality of others, that comes from basing opinions upon knowledge rather than upon prejudices; and a growing appreciation of the things you see and hear each day. Everything you learn in college should help to make life richer and more interesting. This PALO DURO should help to keep alive the memory of the many happy activities of the past year, and should be a pleasant reminder of things that endure. Sincerely yours.
