THE AIMS AND IDEALS DF' BATTLE CREEK COLLEGE Said wise old Seneca, Religion consists of two things: to seek truth and to do good. This is our aim. Our ideals contemplate a new program in education, based upon the following fundamental propo- sitions: 1. Every human being is entitled to an opportunity for the fullest development and the most complete expression of the physical and mental potentialities which he has inherited from his ancestors. 2. Such an opportunity requires not only freedom from restraint or misdirection, but instruction and training in the fine art of biologic or physiologic living, not in relation to eating and drinking only, but in the broad sense which includes the technic of wholesome conduct in all human activities and rela- tions. ' 3. The function of the school, the college, the university, of every educational agency, should be to give to each student such training of mind and body as will accomplish these ends and thus prepare him to enter upon life with a body free from disease and possessed of the knowledge and physical stamina required for protection against agencies and influences hostile to health, to live an efficient, happy and useful life, to attain maximum longevity, and to contribute to the development of a new, hardier, larger, nobler and in every way superior, race of man. When Greece was at the zenith of its glory, a pinnacle of human development which no nation has since reached, she wrote over the doors of her temples of learning, Mens sana in corpore sano. This golden motto must again become the goal of every educational project and the inspiration of eve1'y educational program. These are the aims and ideals of Battle Creek College, in which it is a pioneer among educational institutions. ' JOHN HARVEY KELLOGG. Page Tiwnty-foul'

It symbolizes the Whole academic career of a Battle Creek College student. For it is in this building that we register when we arrive, and it is here that We receive our sheepskins when We leave. As we spend much of our time in the in-between years in the library, class rooms, auditorium, recreation room and the directors' offices located here, every student has more in- terests in this building than in any other on the campus.
