Carleton ' s influence is a subtle process, and works slowly; yet seldom has a student ended his four years wholly unchanged. Bewildered with new methods and humbled by superior knowledge, he learns that his mind is an honest tool and can take on an edge as keen as a fine knife ' s blade. As facts interlock and abstractions relate to reality, he discovers in himself the strength of trained thought and sees in it the austere beauty and quiet power of a steel bridge. Even less tangible is the influence of non-academic living; yet it is active on the student who hammers out a poem for Manuscript or skis alone on a clean hill. Carleton will not train its graduate to use a scapel or to assemble a machine gun, but he can find here serenity and depth of spirit to be a framework for practicality and a foundation in a shaken world. Of every student who leaves the campus with personal integrity and clarity of mind, Carleton can say truly, We have done our work well. 17
