J. E. Danieley President TO THE CLASS OF 1961: You came to Elon College as freshmen in September, 1957, two months after I assiomed the duties of the presidency of the College; and we began that academic year together as freshmen. During these four years many interesting changes have taken place on our campus. We have removed old buildings, constructed new buildings, and made other improvements in the physical facilities. There have been many changes in the academic life of the College - we believe that the instructional program has been enriched and strengthened. These changes are important - they are a part of the overall plan for the development of Alma Mater. But there have been other changes which are more significant. These are the changes which have taken place in you as individuals during your college life. You have encountered new ideas. In the classroom, in the library, and on the campus you have found teachers, authors, and fellow students asking questions. It is our hope that you have learned to ask questions, to seek for the truth. Remember that it is much more important to ask the right questions than it is to be able to give rote answers. Don ' t ever lose the joy of this spirit of inquiry. You have had a new experience. It is our hope that some of these experiences have been spiritual and that your life has been enriched by them. We hope that you will never lose the joy and strength which come to those who profess and practice the Christian faith. As you graduate, remember that you have acquired only the basic tools which are required if you are to complete your education. Continue to read, to study, and to search for the truth in partnership with Him who is the Truth, the Way, and the Life; and you will discover the abundant life. You have our very best wishes - Sincerely yours. -. .. - X.- President and Mrs. J. E. Danieley and family (1. to r.) Ned, Mark and Jane Elizabeth.
