The story is told of a little girl who was viewing the wonders of the New York skyline from a ferry for the first time, and she exclaimed to her father: Daddy, I can look farther than my eyes can see ! I am of the opinion that one of the great challenges to be taken in higher education is to see farther than one ' s eyes can take one, and I believe that many of our students are accepting such a challenge. When one is confronted with the demands and the opportunities of the greater vision, there may be a temptation to withdraw into the shell of complacency or the hole of continued ignorance, and yet but one new insight from the pen of a stimu- lating writer or one word of encouragement from the voice of a concerned and imaginative teacher can open the new door. Those experiences are taking place on the campus of George Fox in an ever-widening circle. Let all of us who look bac k upon this year recall that this was the year when regional accreditation was granted, when five scholars were involved in Intensified Studies, when Pi Gamma Sigma grew to eleven members, when our boys took first in the Willamette Christian College League, the choir did Handel ' s Messiah and a tour, the drama people produced The Big Fisherman, the science hall was remodelled, it rained all spring, Professor Mills lectured on Revelation, the Center of Learning, Mr. Mardock and Mr. Kirk spoke in the Christian emphases, both James Cheng of Formosa and Pastor Kim of Korea graduated, Ron Worden made summa cum laude, and commencement was held in the senior rose garden. What a year!

Dean Williams According to Nicholas Murray Butler there are five tests of the evidence of education—correctness and precision in the use of the mother tongue; refined and gentle manners, the result of fixed habits of thought and action; sound standards of appreciation of beauty and of worth, and a character based on those standards; power and habit of reflection; efficiency or the power to do. A liberal arts education is that which enables students to pass these tests of evi- dence. Knowledge in the areas of the humanities, social sciences, and natural sciences comprise the basic core of the curriculum at George Fox College. Almost two thousand years ago Jesus in speaking to a multitude of people stressed the point which is basic to our philosophy of education, A man ' s life consisteth not in the abundance of things which he possesseth. We desire that our students learn to live abundantly. To do this each must possess the facility of communication, Christian ethics and manners, disciplined control of his powers of thought and ac- tion, an appreciation of beauty around him in nature and in other people, and Christian character. Mere specialization is some vocational endeavor does not make one an educated person. Each of us reaps what he has sown. How important that we sow in our college education that seed which will produce a full life of useful endeavor and contentment which is found in being appreciative of God ! s marvelous creation.
