SITIS. This is a unique year in the history of the College. It is the year in which we pause to look back over one hundred and seventy-five years of glorious history. It is a thrilling picture, indeed! Few colleges in the country have the heritage as long or as praiseworthy as does Dickinson. john Dickinson, Governor of Pennsylvania and a learned scholar and writer, became the first President of the Board of Trustees. Dr. Benjamin Rush, most instrumental in the founding of the College, was a dis- tinguished physician and scholar, a signer of the Declaration of Independence, and the Surgeon General of the Revolutionary Army. Charles Nesbitt and james Ross were outstanding scholars and educators of their time. Old West is the oldest college building in Pennsylvania, and probably the oldest west of the Delaware River. Dickinson is the only college in the country ever to have both a President and a Chief justice in Washington at the same time-Presi- dent James Buchanan and Chief Justice Taney. In addition, a third Dickinsonian, Robert Cooper Grier, was an Associate justice with Taney of the Supreme Court bench. Down through the years Dickinson has sent men of honor and distinction, men who are acknowledged leaders in their fields. Federal and State judges, Cabinet officers, governors of States, Leaders in Methodist, Protestant, Episcopal, and Reformed Churches, College Presidents, and a host of outstanding lawyers, phy- sicians, bankers, teachers, and clergymen-all these are evidence of the vital contributions that Dickinson has made and is making on the American and World scene.

WILLIAM WILCOX EDEL President of the College The Presidenfs Message The Microcosm, like all year books, is essentially a memory book of college days. Within its covers the editors attempt to recapture the essence of life upon this campus-the familiar faces of faculty members and students, a glimpse into the classroom and social hall, the record of sports activity and featured attractions. Education at Dickinson is in itself a varied process, involving faculty and stu- dent associates, classroom instruction and campus discussion, the intellectual as well as the social. This year the Microcosm joints in the celebration of the One Hundred and Seventy-fifth Anniversary of this institution. The heritage of Dickinson's past lies largely in intangibles-the devotion of its founders, the zeal of its faculty, the loyalty of its alumni. But the realities of our legacy are apparent PRESIDENT too-in the dignity of Old West, the well stocked library, the certainty of our faith in ourselves, our country, and our God. These are precious gifts, tangible and intangible, sometimes forgotten in the excitement of the present. They are assets, how- ever, which give a soul to our alma mater. At college for the first time students assume the responsibility of living as individuals, here learn- ing becomes philosophical as well as factual, here experience points to maturity. A tree to grow strong must be well rooted and constantly nourished. Dickinson's roots go deep. May this Microcosm serve as a book of remembrance--nourishing through the years your interest as graduates and thus increase the strength of the College. So shall the faith of the founding fathers be justified! WILLIAM W. EDEL The President of the College
