Vice-Principal’s Message Education is not given for the purpose of earn¬ ing a living, it’s learning what to do with a living after you earn it”. (Abraham Lincoln) Education is far more than the mere accumulation of a mass of facts. An educated person is not just a walking encyclopedia. As Pope so aptly put it, he is not, The bookful blockhead, ignorantly read. With loads of learned lumber in his head. A popular definition of education goes something like this. “’Education is what one has left after he has forgotten everything that he learned in school. Certainly, it is not necessarily the facts learned at school, but rather the after effects that are impor¬ tant in obtaining an education. No given amount of schooling — grade six, grade twelve, a college degree, or two - can guarantee that the person is educated. Education is a way of thinking, a way of attack¬ ing problems, an outlook on life, an awareness of what is going on in the world around, a respect for the rights of others, a willingness to accept responsibility, self-reliance, an ability to adapt to changing circum¬ stances, a knowledge that information is available, and some idea where and how this information can be obtained quickly, and effectively, if it is required. Education makes the difference between the dull clod who does his daily work in an indifferent manner, who is bored with his own company, who does not know what to do with himself on his time off, who thinks that home is only a place to escape from the rain, to eat, to sleep, who thinks he has to go out and spend money before he can thoroughly enjoy himself ; and the person who sees some use for his work and thoroughly enjoys doing it, who has so many things that he would like to do in a lifetime that he would have to live a thousand years to accomplish them, who can stay home during his leisure hours, and read, or putter around in the garden, or fix his boat, or just sit and think, or loaf, and be happy with his family. Education makes the difference between boring¬ ly putting in time between the cradle and the grave, and finding life a wonderful adventure. - H. J. McCrea
