To Graduates: Sacramento State College has good reasons to be proud of its alumni, and | know that this year's class will measure up well to the high standards already established by graduates of this institution. There is reason to believe that each class will reflect the constant improvement in quality which this institution is achieving as it enlarges its library, its faculty and its physical plant; as it sets higher standards of admission, and of scholarship; and as it dedicates itself to a wider range of service. From one point of view, the College ‘“‘makes’’ its alumni. It teaches them to think; it teaches them to act; it inculcates character and it influences personality. But, in another sense, it is the alumni who ‘‘make” the college, for such an institution will be known by the good works of those who have been produced by it. Therefore, we have a mutual obligation which | trust is being discharged and will continue to be discharged most effectively. My very best wishes go with each and every graduate of the class of 1965 — the eighteenth in the history of this College. Sincerely, GUY A. WEST President

ee. Dr. West was peacefully pursuing his duties as a Dean in another State College when his phone rang. On the line was a state official inquiring whether Dr. West would be willing to come to Sacramento to establish a new college just authorized by the State Legislature. That was in July, 1947, and it was requested that classes start in September, just two months later. Despite many obstacles, this objective was realized. The College began on a small scale using Junior College and nearby buildings. Therefore, Dr. West is the first President of the College, and has been serving in that capacity for 18 years. Previously he had occupied various positions in two other State Colleges, one in New Mexico, the other at Chico, California. He holds his A.B. degree from New Mexico Western University, his Masters from the University of Colorado, and his doctorate from the University of California. The honorary degree of L.L.D. was conferred on him by the McGeorge College of Law. In addition to his regular duties, he serves as a mem- ber of the Accreditation Commission of the State Board of Education. For the two-year period ending in March, 1964, he was President of the Western College Associa- tion, and for two years prior to that he —o x was Vice President. Currently he is of the Executive Board. lf v | iE i ie i i 5
