CHANGING TIMES WITH A NEW LOOK A New Dorm Is Built To Accomodate Increased Enrollment A Cause To Celebrate ' Perhaps no single factor has improved the visibility, image and support of Florida Memorial College more than our campaign leadership. Organized two years ago, this group, led by General Chairman R. Ray Goode, president of the Babcock Company, embraced us openly, came into our family warmly, and endorsed our long-ranged planning admiringly. We asked them to join us, help us plan, and raise money. And they did. There is no way we can justly describe the magnitude of their confidence and support, nor our grat itude. Mr. Goode has fostered an overwhelm- ingly successful campaign, by attracting the very important venturesome partner- ship of the community. To date, the cam- paign has received $3,648,081.00 in pledged support with $3,229,621.00 al- ready in the kitty. . . . We are prayerfully confident that we will reach our goal. We are grateful for a community that has come to know us and to share its confidence by investing valuable dollars in our future. We believe there is nothing more important in improving our generation over another, than the job we do. Your gift to our campaign is a gift to the community we serve. Willie C. Robinson President Dr. Robinson and Mr. Ray Goode, and College Chap- lain, Dr. Whitelocke. Dr. and Mrs. Robinson w Judge W. Ferguson ■fT
