'Totewotd Today we live in chaos. We realize that this chaos has been brought about by destructive discord. As a college publica' tion, we dedicate our book to the present and to the realization that only by creative unity can a world of cotistruction be brought about. We propose that there is no better place to begin this harmony of creative unity than on the campus of our colleges. Here a varied cross section is found. The three colleges, each with activities which differ in tech' niques and in methods of approach, are essentially the same in their creative unity. Our College of Engineering has been educating “creators to meet the complex requirements of the world since 1903. We have accepted the leadership of science and engineering in our modern society. Science now realizes that it must take an active social interest in its creations, lest all that has been gained is lost. The value of the role played by women as a part of the team of construction has been further emphasized in the recent war. Margaret Morrison College, therefore, con' tributes to this harmony by continuing with its fine work. The place of the artist as an integral part of our society is being realized more and more. As a reminder that we are first human beings, and then a part of our mechanized world, the artist's function is being re' affirmed. We restate that no matter how different the activities of the three colleges may seem, basically they are the same; that the Artist, the Engineer, and Maggie Murph are all creators. While the three colleges differ in techniques and methods of approach, they are essentially similar in their creative unity. It is to the present, and to the hope that this creative unity will start us on the road to construction that will result in a better world, that we dedicate the 1946 Thistle.
