Appreciation to Our Faculty Taken collectively and inili iilually, they stand fur the ag:e-i l(l princiiik-.-- of in tegrity, fairness and good will, Lixing so much of one ' s daily life with them. and coming in contact with their person- alities in all sorts of situations, it is im- possible for anyone to remain untouched by the far-reaching effects of characters that are noble, intellects that are superb, and hearts tliat are golden. The greatest quality of our faculty is comradeship. Nowhere else is there ex- hibited that spirit of friendliness and re- gard that radiates frcjui teacher to pupil as it does here at Normal, It is their genial fellowship that pronipt them tn enter into all our acti ities, often, we know, at a sacrifice of time and iileasure. And then, who is tl to take his sorrows one of them, anrl win understanding and s} perplexities to is not met with Uhetic interest? Many times when life seemed darkest their words of gladness and wisdom have caused more than one of us to take heart and smile again, ' e. the class of ' 24. wish to express our sincere and heartfelt appreciation to the I aculty of the Normal College, ' e are as yet just dimly conscious of the great effort on your part to send us forth efficient anfl confident as to our futures. You have gi ' cn us all that is best in example and ideals. ' e do not seek to repay you for all you have done for us. We know that we cannot. We can. how- ever, and do honor, respect, and admire your [lersonalities and accomidishments. Imitation is sincerest flatter}-, and it ib our desire and resolution as teachers to imbue our students with humanistic atti- tude similar to yours, the same perfected ideals, and the same spirit of co-operation and industry that we have taken from the !• acuity ..f the Normal College.
