DLEY P. I. l 5 E P 5 5 i l 1 Polyscope! VVhat is its origin and meaning? Does it have any special significance for the Bradley group, students, alumni, faculty? It is a coined word. You will not find it in the dictionary. lt comes from the Greek poly Qmanyj and skopos fmark, aim-and by derivation-range or extent of view, amplitude of opportunityj. When the establishment of a college annual was under consideration, Dr. Theo- dore C. Burgess, head of the department of ancient language, and for many years the able and be- loved president of the college, coined a word to be used as a title for? the new publication. It suggests first, that a greater variety of educational opportunities can be found at Bradley than at most other colleges of its class, and second, that those who go out from Bradley should at- tain a many sided development with numerous points of contact, capable of finding varied interests, and of bringing life to higher levels for themselves and for others. C. T. WYCKOFF, Dean of the College.

l ll-SE PQLVSCQPE 1936 VVhen a college year draws to a close, students begin to throw many things into the discard. Term papers. text-books, class schedules, note books, and even student directories are cast aside. But there are some things they want to keep. They would like to be able to keep forever the many happy experiences of college days. Th:1t's the purpose of the POLYSCOPE. In this volume, the editors have gathered pictures and comments of you and your associates during 1934-35. As you look through these pages, memory fills in the details and you see again the happenings of that year-in classrooms, at the games. and at the social gatherings. And whenever you look, may you iind yourself doing effectively and happily the work you hoped sometime to do. Sincerely yours, FREDERIC R. HAMILTON, President.
