This S line is Qeuiicciteol to DR. EUGENE E. DAWSON, President, Colorado Womanis College His YEAR, 1963, is a turning point in the history of Colorado Woman's College. It is a year of excite- ment, expectation, and celebration for not only are we commemorating our 75th Anniversary as a woman's college, but we are celebrating our advancement forward to a recognized four-year institution of higher learning. This step forward is due to the ambitions and dreams of one man who dared to do what all others felt impossible. Against some opposition and question he dared to believe and stand firm to the fact that CWC could and should be transformed from a two-year institution to a senior col- lege. This man believed in CWC and felt it had the po- tential to become one of the Westis most outstanding womanls colleges. Because of this belief and deep dedica- tion, he has devoted his every ambition, thought, work, and deed to achieving this goal. And now, in 1963, his dream has become reality. In May, forty .seniors will be graduated because of his deep determination and ideals. The college which he has been instrumental in developing has become the glory of the West. In humbleness and humility we dedicate this book to you, President Dawson. You are the foundation, cornerstone and supporting fix- ture of this college. You have dared to make a challenge and to meet it with full glory and honor. We are indebted to you for making accessible to us such a fine institution where we may be educated and prepared to meet the world and its problems. To you we say Thank You and may the dreams and ambitions that you still have for fur- ther development of CWC become realities, too.

C7 E7 Members of the senior class. o YoU, the seniors, who were willing to confront the new challenge President Dawson laid before you and to tread on new unexplored grounds, we also dedicate this book. For without your willingness to ac- cept the unknown and to have faith in what was proposed to you, all would have been in vain. There must be an object of reality to the dream and you were that reality. For two years you followed the paths that others trod here at a two-year college, and then came the time when you were put out on your own to raise the standards and ideals of CWC, to establish tradition, and to make a way - a right way -- for others to follow. There was expec- tation, there was doubt, but most of all you possessed the faith, courage, and ambition to fulfill the dreams of those so dedicated to this institution. With calm reserve and assurance you stepped forward to assume your new role and to do the very best you knew how. It was not an easy role, for you often knew not what was expected of you, but you were willing to try. And you fared well. You gave to your college your time, devotion, patience as no other class was capable or willing to give. You set a precedent that others found hard to follow, but this is what we asked for and you have given it to us. The trail you blazed is wide, straight, and smooth so that others who followed in your footsteps could not be led astray. We, the students, are deeply grateful to you who were willing to give your all that others might obtain higher benefits in the years to come. ?
