Dedication In i896 a vigorous and energetic young minister came to Red Springs to become the first president of our college, then called Red Springs Seminary. Facing almost insurmountable obstacles with faith and fortitude, he erected an institution which glorified God and exalted womanhood. The college gained rapidly in prestige under his leadership, and the work of his wife in the department of music was so widely recog- nized that in l903 Conservatory of Music was added to its name. After thirty-four years of dedicated service and sacri- fice he resigned to become President Emeritus. Although for several years he has been on our campus only for very special occasions, his faith and courage have remained an inspiration to us. He had a purpose ond, having it, threw into his work his whole strength of mind and body. Because his was a task with a vision, he become the founder of our clan and the sacred embodiment of our clan spirit. We therefore dedicate the 1957 WHITE HEATHER to DR. CHARLES GRAVES VARDELL, President Emeritus
