Cumberland Builds Through e INDIVIDUALS The individual in the student body furnishes the raw material for the building of a successful, useful life. Because of his exposure to many different personalities, each student learns to make adjustments, to evaluate qualities, and to practice tolerance. Daily contact with many individuals helps him to learn to respect the rights of others, to develop a pleasing personality, and to establish friendships which he will cherish throughout his life. From the athletic field to the chemistry lab, each boy and girl is enriched by constant exposure to differing ideas advanced by many students. The raw material of his life is shaped into a mature individual capable of facing the future more con- fidently. The many walkways, like the unpainted one shown here, provide pleasant gathering places for students. Janice Jones and Wayne Clayton take a few minutes outofa busy day's schedule to chat be- neath the new covered walkway.
