TO THIS HERITAGE . . . I do not know another institution that is doing a more necessary work among native Americans of fine natural capacities, who have been denied the chance that should be theirs for higher education. I earnestly wish you success. THEODORE ROOSEVELT I do not see how anybody can think of Berea and the work it has to do without catching fire. WOODROW WILSON You always have my best wishes and my belief that you are nobly performing a noble work. JUSTICE OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES THE PAST YEAR HAS ADDED THESE . . . I have come to know and to love an institution which has for more than eighty years been the inspira- tion of thousands of young people. STEWART W. McCLELLAND, President, Lincoln Memorial University. Berea College in the persons of its distinguished, nobly useful, and beloved President Emeritus and Pres- ident Elect, in the strength of its great traditions and the robustness of its clear purpose, moves us to a new realization of the spiritual value of its high simplicity above all the complexity and confusion of our modern world. Berea lifts above triteness and makes vivid the significance of the individual and the sacredness of personality. Study of books, work with the hands, play and sports, student government, learning and living, all join in the making of self-reliant individuals, integrated personalities, with the whole view toward intelligent social adjustments, as the students respond to the inner glimpses of their nobler selves and a nobler society. FRANK PORTER GRAHAM, President, University of North Carolina. On our campus here at Berea are fine buildings and splendid modern equipment which testify to great progress and achievement, but what we prize most is that which we possess here which was not wrought with human hands, that priceless something which we may call the Berea tradition; the composite spirit of all the courageous self-sacrificing, and loyal devotion of those who have gone before and those who now carry on that same pattern. It is a far easier task to find a president for Yale, Harvard or Princeton than to find a suitable presi- dent for Berea College. In this field God asks for a very special service, a service that only an unusual and consecrated leader can give. And now again in the choice of a new president we feel sure that we have been divinely guided. He has in large measure the qualities which his distinguished father brought to the work. He has in large measure the qualities which have built up the fine Berea tradition. WILLIAM DEAN EMBREE An institution founded by humble people and working for and with humble people. An institution primarily interested in the kind of life our boys and girls may live after they leave us. An institution which believes in the dignity of labor and tries to make each student feel he is a partner with God in any creative task whether with mind or hand. An institution which believes the foundation of character is a firm conviction and a living experience with a living God, and hence desires that all its graduates shall know something of the way in which all people have experienced that God. W. D. WEATHERFORD I feel that Berea College is doing a unique and distinguished work in education It has a warm place in my heart. LEW SARETT
