Dedication of Barncss Hall The D. V. C. Band FDREWDRD The path to the College gate was sheltered as we entered four years ago. And we lived in a sheltered womb, nurtured by our educators and our books. The embryo assimilated the nutriment and it grew. But growth was slow and it was accompanied by growing pains. Yet, they were happy, satisfying times. We rev- eled in our growth and we observed it with great won- derment and joy. Now we stand alone, for commencement is truly birth and we are born into a troubled world. We are aware of the trying times ahead, the newspapers do not allow us to forget. But we are not born unarmed and naked; our educators have provided for us. May this book serve as a vehicle to carry us back to our years of growth and provide childhood ' s last memento. It is hoped that this book presents an accu- rate picture of our successful preparation for the strident, more fruitful years ahead.

A man who was the inspiration alike of trustee, faculty member and student, and whose outstanding courage, fine quality of leadership, indomitable spirit, and deep love for everything pertaining to The National Farm School remain, in the memory of those who knew him. as tradi- tions for us to dare to carrv on. Joseph Krauskopf was a man of great vision and understanding. Over half a century ago he perceived and proclaimed truths which even today some of our leading educators fail to rec- nize. He saw the function of education as a ide to action and to work. He saw the errors afld grevious results of group, class, and of racial istinction. He saw the futility of any form of ition which did not emphasize and stress landates and precepts of good citizenship. o manv of us fail to see that many great tions and many great systems are doomed. any fail to see that higher education for e privileged is a thing of th» past. Too resent any change of any kind. rauskopf saw the fallacy of this phi- Oy fifty years ago. His vision, and his res, brought forth the college vou see here y. His idea ' s and his philosophv are today breath of the College, as his ideals and his hy were the life of the School he d. work remains as the living proof of a Reverend Dr. Joseph Krauskopf He came devoid of pomp, wrought bravely, died. Years have but added laurels to his brow Who knew men faded when vision is denied But win when opportunity cries Now! . Harvey M. Watts
