THE PRESIDENTS MESSAGE Dear Seniors: This year marks the 60th anniversary of our existence as an institu- tion of higher learning. Many changes have occurred since the first stu- dents were enrolled in Bethel Baptist Church, Jacksonville, Florida, in 1892, which marked the beginning of our institution. You are the seventh class to graduate since we have become a four- year college. Scattered throughout the world are members of the Florida Normal College Alumni. They are torch bearers in our march of pro- gress; the tangible products of our teachings. The record of our school is marked by your failure or success as citizens. As you go into this world of confusion, bearing the imprint of our edu- cational efforts, we firmly hope that your standards will be guided by our basic philosophy and that your years spent here will be perpetuated by the memories and purposeful activities of which you were a part. May success in the things more excellent reward your endeavors, and in years to come may you look upon the work of our founders and in earnest truth say: I, too, have fought a good fight. I, too, have kept the faith. Sincerely yours, R. W. Puryear President
