His contagious optimism is widespread on the campus both through the informal talks which the students feel free to have in his office at any time, and through the talks he makes to the student body as a whole. Through his enthusiasm we see a vision of the greater Queens —a dream which time will make more real to us. Godard Miss Thelma Albright. A.B., A.M Dean of Students James M. Godard, A.B., A.M.

Queens’ greatness in such countless ways of love, We thank thee. God. for these.

UUl: •a swop sown A Vision of Queens Students Above the roofs of red brick buildings, above the tops of sway- ing oak trees towering over the feverish rush of hurried lives, our chapel spire points heavenward. The glow of God’s sun through the stained glass window fills us with His radiance. Our souls are stirred by the music of the organ, and God speaks to us in the stillness of His sanctuary. We see: . . . Girls entering its doors between the rush of demanding classes to be quiet with God and finding there the renewing of their strength to live Him in every phase of their daily campus life. . . . Girls casually glancing its way and sensing God, being led to see each other anew through eyes of Love. . . . The welcome sound of the vesper bell calling us to the per- fect end of a Sabbath Day and the perfect beginning of a new week, as girls come together from all over the campus and become one in their worship of God. . . . Girls prayerfully beginning the day by seeing themselves through the eyes of God as they kneel before His presence in the chapel prayer room. ... A Teacher, realizing her own inadequacy in accepting the responsibility of molding young lives, catching there the flame of the Holy Spirit and kindling in the minds of her students a zeal for Christian education as revealed in her. . . . Our Chapel, filling the need on Queens campus of a place dedicated to the glory of God and His Holy Word. As God is the center of a Christian life, so is the House of God the center of a Christian campus. (The above was written by a group of Queens students when asked to tell what a new chapel could mean to them.) A vision becomes a reality when the busi- ness associates of Mr. W. H. Belk presented our college with SI 50.000 for the construc- tion of a lovely chapel. Shown at the right, when the presentation was made at a special chapel ceremony, are Miss Sarah Belk, Mrs. H. B.
