ff ., JY A4 0 l Jlf' sri . ggi Yi- r ln observing the l5Oth anniversary of its founding, Emory commemorates more than its history. The University pauses to honor those now helping build the community called Emory, those who rep- resent simultaneously the school's tradi- tion and promise. More than any other facet of the sesguicentennial celebration, the people of Emory provide true cause for the festivities marking a century and a half of success. Emory prides itself on its diverse popu- lation, as well it should. From the professor of law emeritus to the lVl.B.A. candidate, each participant in the Emory society con- tributes a unique portion to the Universi- ty's environment. Arriving from Druid Hills or Denmark, Emory people bring in- dividual goals for their stays here. These objectives range from earning a Doctor of Divinity to finishing a satisfying career in cancer research. No matter what the aim or how long the stay, however, each mem- ber of the Emory family adds a personal dimension to the common ambition of this community of scholars: enrichment and service through learning. Though Emory's individuals comprise a varied lot of back- grounds, interests, and abilities, their shared interest in education synthesizes these broad elements into a university. True to the sense of the Latin word univer- sus, Emory's people turn toward one goal. While Emory's past achievements fully deserve the attention they will receive during the sesguicentennial year, the Uni- versity's greatest wealth lies in this genera- tion of students, professors, and alumni. Benefactors of l5O years' development, the celebrants of 1986 lead Emory toward its next century and a half with the tre- mendous momentum of Emory's recent rapid explosion. Their accomplishments in the coming decades will determine whether Emory fulfills its potential as one of the country's fastest growing universi- ties. The Emory community of 1986 will not only commemorate the founding of Emory College but also have the chance to lead the University to unprecedented levels. Meeting this challenge may prove to be the most difficult task in Emory's history, demanding the absolute best from its vast resources. As a moment of reflection, celebration, and anticipation, Emory's sesquicentenni- al supplies the ideal point from which its community can launch the drive to place Emory among the nation's best universi- ties. By no means can or should this year's celebrants view the anniversary as an apo- theosisg Emory as its best remains far from perfect. A critical eye and a hopeful spirit, ' .'
