Deans' Messages It has been my privilege to witness the development of this institution from the status of a two-year Normal School to that of a degree-granting professional college for teachers. During this period I have had the opportunity, as teacher and administra- tor, to mingle with most interesting personalities in a continually changing student body. From this invaluable experience, I can testify to a gradually improving college attitude and higher professional tone. Nothing holds greater promise for the welfare of the next generation than the continued evidence of such advancement. C. I. N AEGLE, Dean of Instruction. In order that we may live together more happily and effectively. . . ' Liberalized rules, increased privileges, enlarged recreation space, im- proved living conditions, a more comprehensive social program-these are the Milestones we have tried to realize during the seven years it has been my privilege to be associated with this campus. A growing social consciousness and an increasing consideration for others has characterized the women students as a group during this period. Our new social rooms include the Women's Quiet Lounge, a spacious Game Room and a well-equipped Kitchenette-all of which contribute im- measurably to the happiness of our group life. With ouradditional resources, wider opportunities, and increased priv- ileges, may we strive to achieve an even richer lifel RUTH L. lONES,' Dean of Women. There has been an interesting panorama of events occurring on this campus which has led to favorable professional advancement. I have had an opportunity to observe this progress from the vantage point of a student, an alumnus, a teacher and coach and an administrator. In this process of de- velopment the class of 1937 has played no small part. For me, it has been especially gratifying to see the contributions made by the men students, especially in the fostering of genuine bonds of friendship and fellowship. It is with pleasure that I extend to the Class of 1937 my sincere congratula- tions as you approach the last milestone in your educational journey at this college. You have given evidence of continued growth both as individuals arid as a class. My hope is that you will achieve the very highest success in li e. HOWARD R. DENIKE, Dean of Men. Twenty-eight

Presidents Message TO THE STUDENT BODY: I During the fourteen years it has been my pleasure to guide the destinies of your college, many classes have come and gone. The college campus has been enlarged and beautified. Three new buildings have been erected. The institution has developed from a Normal School with a two-year curriculum into a Teachers College with the right to confer degrees. In fact, since 1926, 805 degrees have been conferred. And while all this material and educational progress has been, in a sense, a part of the day's work, yet, with each passing year, my appreciation of the fine personal qualities of the student body has increased, and more and more has it been my only concem that the very best educational opportunities be provided for you and those who may here- after enroll. My hope is that each one of you may make the most of all of these opportunities so that your individual personalities may be developed to their highest possibilities and you may be prepared to render to the youth of the Commonwealth, whose destinies it will be your privilege to direct, the highest type of service. T. T. ALLEN, President Twenty-seven
