It shall assist and guide the student in his search for knowledge that he may acquire thoroughly a comprehension of those facts and principles which scholars and students through the ages have acquired by long experience and tedious labors, and urge him on in the search of new truths which are still hidden away in the treasuries of the universe, and last but by no means least it shall be the firm purpose of the college to give to each student such a knowledge of Christ as will result in a personal experience of salvation and enable him to have a true conception of his relationship to God, to the Church and to his fellowmen. But what shall the college mean to the Church? Recognizing its place as a child of the Church it shall endeavor to render to it faithful service, giving God the glory and the Church the benefit of its efforts. It must be- lieve in and stand for what the Church believes and stands for, upholding its principles and policies and fostering such an atmosphere as will put the student in sympathy with the spirit of the Gospel and the interpretations given it by the Church. Another question and not the least among them, is the question of its standing among other colleges. If the schools are to help the Church solve her problems they must be such as will attract people to them. By this We do not mean that the popular ideals which many schools foster as at- tractions should be adopted, but the grade of work, the standing and train- ing of instructors, the curriculum, and equipment, must be such as will draw men and women to it and enable them when they go forth from it to take their places in life, whether in school-room, in the pulpit, on Mission field or in business and be able to meet the needs of their day. This shall be the Aim of Goshen College and to this end it shall labor. How successful it has been, only time can tell, but under the leader- ship of Him who has promised to be with us till the end of time we are pressing on believing that He will do for us greater things than we can think or ask. THE PRESIDENT. T011
