President Ernest L, Stockton Rising from the student ranks to Professor, Dean, and finally to the highest position his Alma Mater could offer him, the Presidency of the Old Cumberland ' ' he loves so well, Ernest L. Stockton has won the admiration, confidence, and love of every student and friend of this historic institution. In the brief span that has passed since the beginning of his term of office in 1927, he has more than lived up to the expectations and requirements of those who advocated his selection. President Stockton ' s love for Old Cumberland is more than sentiment, his plans are more than air-castles, and his expectations are more than empty hopes. Truly imbibed with the Bulldog Spirit that- has made Cumberland University great, his energies, his dreams, and his every thought are for his Alma Mater. He has spent most of the past year in a careful yet forceful drive in New York City, in an attempt to obtain means for the realization of his noble ideals. His long experience in various capacities in the University has equipped him thoroughly to understand the ' problems and difficulties that face it. His ability in building up constructive plans to meet the need, has alreach ' been proved. He has raised the scholastic standards of the institution to a plane worthy of recognition throughout the educa- tional world. The success that is anticipated in his present drive should really bring Old Cumberland to her own. Truly the beginning of his term of office marked a new era of progress in the history of his Alma Mater. His high character, his intellectual attainments, his magnetic personality, and his noble ideals have combined to win a respect and admiration that is somewhat mingled with awe: and his personal touch and his individual interest in each student, faculty member, and friend, have softened this respect into love. A scholar, a friend, a gentleman, and a real man — he holds a sacred spot in the heart of every student who has learned to know him. 16
