In this book are chronicled the main events of another college year-a period covering one- fourth of the academic life of a student body. These pages tell the story of victory and defeat in student activities. But more than that they are irrevocably connected with experiences which have brought, and will continue to bring to you, a development-a growth that will be an important factor in determining the kind of an individual your associates will know you to be. As the years pass, may this edition of the POLYSCOPE always call happily to mind, your student days at Bradley in 1928. Aefawbcc' V? J' '., all fill i

Hamilton, President of Bradley Polytechnic Institute for the past three years, both student and faculty members have discovered a genial leader and a Worthy successor to their be- loved president-the late Dr. Theodore C. Burgess. During this short period of acquaintance pres- ident, teacher, student, all have become intimate friends, and under such an administration a sin- cere regard, even affection, on the part of the student body has ensued. Dr. Hamilton has by no means limited his activity to academic circles. These qualities of practicability, managerial skill in conjunction with a congenial personality, a pleasant speaking manner, and a conscientious ad- herence to office duties embody the man we are proud to call-President. .X .-, , -J 'r' l 13.- , ,, N. ,'-'Yr' 1 . v l ,ll uf' fy .1 - ..

Doctor Wyckoff came to Bradley when thc College was found- ed three decades ago, and decided then to make teaching at Brad- ley his life work. In this he has succeeded well with the result that his name is engraved on every page of Bradley's history. His courses are unique, for he is not merely an encyclopedia of historical dates, but a Widely traveled gentleman and a zealous student of human nature. Students marvel at his enthusiastic and scholarly investigation into the important issues of the dayg and they consider his classroom discourses on such questions of utmost interest. His pleasant personality has gained for him a permanent place in the hearts of his students, for they realize they have in him a true friend, a sympathetic listener to all their troubles and woes, as well as an ardent co-partner in their activ- ities.
