12+ May 1963 I-'HUM THE PRESIDENT UE THE STUDENT EUUNEIL H Man's chief purpose ... is the creation and preservation of values, that is what gives meaning to our civilization, and the participation in this is what gives significance, ultimately, to the individual human lifen. This simple statement of Lewis Mumford's expresses both a purpose and potential that is especially applicable to the unique interrelationship between faculty and student body that marks a school of public health such as our own. It is a cliche to say that we have been privileged in our associations but this does not alter the fact that we have been privileged -- in our opportunities to learn not alone through the usual avenues of education but even more from each other. Our experience has been rich and rewarding. To the extent that we are able to translate this experience in our professional lives we will be able to transmit these gains to others. In this sense it is possible to note that health, as well as disease, is com unicable. At a time when much of the world's goods and energies are dedicated to means of destruction, we may surely be forgiven for taking some pride in the fact that we have chosen to be agents on the side of life May our effectiveness be a credit to this school, o r various disciplines, and ourselves. Rodolphe L. Coigney, M.D.
