OUR FACULTY Where to begin is the question. There is so much which might be said about this Fac- ulty of ours. They are, we beheve, the most dehghtfully human P aculty in the world. Be- ing human they have their faults, l)ut oh, how trivial, when compared with their virtues. They are endowed with a sympathy for trials and troubles which makes them true friends. How often have we turned to them in our two vears at Xormal and l)een helped as only our just, reasonable P aculty can help. Be- cause of this mutual confidence, Xormal has few rules and regulations. Thus comes our spirit of freedom — freedom of action ; freedom in expression of school sentiment . There is no formal, strained, unfriendly atmosphere at Normal and all this because of our instructors. The friendship between Faculty and students is manifested most clearly, perhaps, in the .splendid co-operation which the Faculty gives to school activities. The social occasions of the year, dramatic presentations, social hour. club and class parties take many minutes of the Faculty ' s valuable time, and yet they come out to lend their support. The number of our Faculty seen out cheering for Xormal at the games and meets, to say nothing of the Faculty and student games, .show the exceptional co- operation our Faculty gives to the student en- terprises. The success Normal has had in these respects could hardly have been possible without this aid from our Faculty. And so we, the Class of 1923, wish to leave a parting word of advice to the lower class- men. Strive to help our b ' aculty in accomplish- ing its work in the must efficient way: de- termine to do nothing which will lessen the feeling of confidence and friendships existing between Faculty and students ; honor, respect and work with them and you will be helping to make Normal an even better school than it is now. And to the Faculty — we can say to our Faculty : The Class of 1923 wishes to express its deepest appreciation of your work and anxiety on our account and of the good ex- ample you have set us ; we can make no ade- quate return to you for these most valuable things, unless it be to promise you. as we do, that we will endeavor always to be true to the highest and best ideals which you have at- tempted to inculcate into our lives and thus be better teachers. (3ur happy Normal days fled fast. And now as memories will be classed, But joyous memories will they be, For us the class of ' 23. And a moment, if I may. In order to convey (Our thanks to thee, dear l- aculty. For guiding our steps so carefully. Vou have advised in time of need And helped to sow each tiny seed. And I hope that when we teach ' e ll attain the goal you wish us to reach. We know our work does much involve And we ' ll attempt, our problems to solve. Thus, once again, farewell to you, You who proved so dear and true; Ever will we cherish the memory Of Normal and of you, dear Faculty. Good-bye, dear Faculty, so kind — ( ;ood-b -e. we ' ve gone our fates to find.
