PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE The Central Washington College of Education has made substantial strides in the last decade. It has been expanded from a two-year institution to a four-year institution and in 1933 began the granting of the degree of bachelor of arts in education and this year by legislative act has been given the present name. Henceforth, all graduates will be assured of a well-rounded cul¬ tural and academic background, together with the professional training and experience essential to the profession of teaching. Fhe program of arts and sciences basic to this program makes it possible for the institution also to offer two full years of arts and science and business and economics. The people of Washington have established this College for the purpose of educating young citizens for service to the State and for the welfare of each individual who comes in contact with its culture. Here, we have a concentrated and selected society in which young people gain knowledge and culture, where cour¬ age and loyalty, good breeding, kindliness and consideration are qualities which are highly prized, while treachery, boorishness, and selfishness are as much despised as when knighthood was in flower. The 1 lyakem presents the students ' record of the work and play activities of our institution for a year through the media of pictures and verbal descriptions. It leaves a record of our acade¬ mic and laboratory activities, social events, and recreation long •° be remembered and cherished. We prize the democracy which in physical sports or the finer mental contests gives to each student a chance to establish his own worth. We prize the rich opportunities that nature in the great Yakima area has provided for varied out-of-door pleasure and what the College is adding to nature s gift. We prize the bouyant comradeship discovered through living and working with teachetB and fellow students. In education rightly understood and wisely given is found the key to human welfare. We welcome each member of the gradu¬ ating class of 1937 into the fuller responsibilities of life. Robert e. McConnell. President. — 13 —
