if it v. .Jw ., Q -'WF 2- fv' DEDICATION . . . I think it's alto- gether appropriate that this yearbook has been dedicated to Professor Kirk- land, because he has dedicated so much to you, the studentsg has dedi- cated such a great deal of his energy towards building a community from which we all can benefitg has dedi- cated his presence at Bucknell to con- cerned participation and involvement with policies and issues of the Uni- versity. . . . . . Unlike any other man I know, he has a kind of insatiable curiosity about what things mean, about what life means, about what being an his- torian means. He has dedicated his life to investigating these meanings, and although it would have been pos- S-2 .valjh ,J sible for him to have carried out his investigations without paying a great deal of attention to students, he has instead made the decision that his curiosity cannot truly be indulged, his investigations cannot truly be successful if done in isolation from the human community. Thus, al- though he lives in a world more populated by ideas than most of us do, he still manages to have a real sensitive presence with other people. His ideas are not detached from hu- man reality, but rather are firmly grounded in itg and the human reality that concerns him most is the reality ofthe Bucknell community . . . A Colleague
