M I ■ n I I ■ I iw» Dedication Present the facts and do not appease the rumor. Employ your own imagination and originality. Avoid imitation. For a quarter of a century Prof Roberts has expounded these general criteria of finer journalism to in- numerable Bethany students. However, Prof has been far more than just the head ot the journalism department. He has virtually become an institution withm an institution. His courses have long been noted for a variety of subject matter, a variety which gives him the right to be called Philosopher of Bethany. His criticisms have been accepted as inspiration, a rare but essential quality for such a field as writing. His interest in his students has been genuine. Certainly his news letters to graduates of his department, which in themselves exemplify the warm virtue of his personal touch, manifest this particular characteristic. What Bethanian would not smile at being reprimanded in this Roberts ' chronicle for a grammatical error in his letter to Prof? Or which one would not chuckle at being individually scolded for not attaining higher goals m lite more rapidly? His idiosyncrasies, his subtle humor and wit, and his appreciation of the human element, have earned him a place of high regard m the Bethany family. After twenty-five years of such service, it is a humble privilege to dedicate the 195.1 Bethanian to Prof Roberts. ♦ 7 ♦
