OUR HERITAGE MARY BROCK, Alumni Secretary Members of our great Greensboro College family today have a heritage of whiih we tan be justly proud. The founders of Greensboro College were individuals with dreams and visions and the determination to tarry them out, under the guidame of Cod, that the young women of our Methodist tonstituency might have edutational opportunities. Chartered in 1838, for 116 years it was a college for women only. It became co-educational in 1954. Many great teachers, administrators and alumni have poured their lives into the making of the very soul of our college. They have carried it through wars, fires and depressions and have brought it to this good hour. The going was not always easy. Sometimes financial problems loomed so large that the closing of the doors of the college seemed inevitable. Wars have wrought havoc. Disastrous fires have twice reduced it to ashes, but from the burning embers new hope was kindled. We pause to pay tribute to those alumni and friends to whom we are indebted for the very existence of our college— for their undaunted courage, unwavering loyalty, undying faith and heroic leadership in a time of dire need. Because they had the courage to say, It shall be saved! , and to stand firm in their convictions to the extent of investing their very lives in this cause, we today enjoy the privileges and advantages of the present Greensboro College, and to them and to the campus community we owe the best that is within us to make it the Greater Greensboro College of tomorrow. Our college is not all wooded campus, bricks and mortar, walks and drives. It is essentially the spirit of the people who compose its vital being— who contribute time and effort, money and planning, enthusiasm and critical vision. This builds en- dowments, inspires enthusiasm, recruits students, creates and makes vital a tradition. This is Greensboro College: its trustees, faculty and administration, students, alumni, and its friends in church and community. The college is now in its second century of even greater use- fulness and service to its community and nation. Its heritage is dear; its contribution great; its future bright. It is our responsibility to preserve our heritage, add our generation ' s contribution and pass it on to posterity, better for our having lived.
