PRESIDENT EMERITUS LEMUEL A. PITTENGER i RESIDENT Emeritus I.. A. Pittenger devoted many years of his life to the welfare and advancement of Ball State Teachers College. Under his guidance this school pros- pered and grew. This is one of the many reasons why the faculty and students of Ball State Teachers College will always love and cherish this splendid leader. From Selma, Indiana, his home, Dr. Pittengcr sent a message to the graduating seniors: The high hopes I had for education as .1 medium for social progress when I began teaching has had many a bump during the years I spent in the school room. But when l recall the many cases of inexperienced boys and girls developing into strong. useful leaders in their communities, my jostled hopes are reaflirmecl. You face times that are out of joint. great movements whose destiny no one can ac- curately forecast, and a host of youth anxious to meet and overcome whatever challenges may face them. May your character, your education. and your courage never fail you in your efforts to teach boys and girls, for what you are and what you do bulk large in the making of their lives. L. A. Pittengerf' 30
