J-o ike IU ' ccuJiet4,t atiJi = acultu The class of 1953 has now completed the re- quired course of study at the State Teachers College at Boston. For four years we have been guided towards our goal by the President and Faculty. They have inspired us to study and -work. They have counselled us in the methods of guiding youth in the classroom and preparing them for active participation in the life of this city ayid state. Above all., they have taught us the moral values in life itself., that we may ever be aware of them ourselves and strive always to develop such awareness in our own stu- dents. To them, therefore, we owe a great debt of gratitude. We hope to express our appreciation by becoming worthy members of a great profession. Mary Murphy President

TO THE MEMBERS OF THE CLASS OF 1953: am happy to extend to you my sincere congratulations upon the successful com- pletion oj your college course and to express to you my appreciation of the loyalty and the school spirit which you have displayed during the past four years. You, as the first graduates of our college since it has become the State Teachers College at Boston, are about to take your place among the teachers of the Commonwealth. To you will be entrusted the responsibility of training and educating youth in a world overshadowed by conflict and the threat of war. Much depends upon the manner in which you carry out this responsibility. The task before you is great, but you will face it, I know, with faith and courage. May God strengthen you in the years that lie ahead and bless you with success and happiness. William F. Looney, President
