THOMAS BRUCE MCDORMAND B.D., Th.D., D.D. -lZmU-mrn7c'c A New Decade Begins The class of 1963 is the first class of Eastern Baptist College to graduate in the sec- ond decade on its history on the lovely new St. Davids Campus. It is the largest class to- be graduated by Eastern, even as each succeeding class is likely to outnumber its predecessors. The advance of Eastern Baptist College in its first decade has been striking. Its en- rollment grew from 89 to 411; its buildings grew from five to fourteen; its faculty in- creased from fourteen to twenty-six. During this decade of destiny, Eastern secured accreditation from the Middle States Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools; the library tripled its holdings; its educational program won the support of several leading foundations, whose grants are allotted only to colleges which meet the test of their close scrutiny; its spiritual emphasis continues to send twenty per cent of its graduates into full time Christian vocations. A new decade has begun. A iiPrograrn of Advance has begun, with a new library as its major objective. This library should be ready for use in September of 1964. Signifi- cant plans for educational advance are being designed. A dynamic synthesis of faith and reason, learning and true religion, will be the goal of all such planning. Bid we now farewell to the class of 1963. A fine band of men and women go out from us to express in many fields of service the lofty principles of education ennobled by reverence, professional competence, and dedication to Christian values which alone make for greatness and durability in life. Our seniors take with them, and leave for others, a rich inheritance. May they cherish it in the name and for the sake of Him who gives it meaning and worth. THOMAS BRUCE MCDORMAND, PRESIDENT

JESSIE CANRIGHT Secretary As a person grows, he must rethink his goals and ambitions in terms of his new knowledge, skills, and interests. This is also true of institutions. One can certainly say that Eastern has grown since coming to our present campus. This year has been one of appraisal of past growth and of an attempt to rethink Our goals anl ambitions in terms of that growth. Already there are many new challenges that come into focur -new majors in certain academic fields, new standards for classroom performance, new faculty members in areas where demands for additional help are evident, new commitmer ts by faculty and students to the ideals of learning and fellowship within the foundatitns and framework of the Christian faith. As these concerns come into sharper focus, we can be more specific about the responsibilities that administrators, faculty, and students will have in realizing them, but at this point we all stand challenged by a common vision that calls us to ilcome up higher. The commitment of Eastern to educate young people who may take llThe Whole Gospel to the Whole World gives us a dynamic to keep pace with a Changing world with changing needs. CYRIL D. GARRETT Executive Vice President and Dean
