What does tlit- farult) mean to us? To some students a facult member is a s iiibol of quizzes, a quality jjoiiit. and Quakerism. To otliers a professor is defined as one ulio talks in his sleep, while some see in a teacher two grades that go home to the family. But a profes- sor is much more than an of these limited conce|)tions. As trite as it ma sound, he is a master craftsman who molds our ideals, builds our characters, and shapes our destinies. He is the patient indixidual who works with us unselfishly and sympathetically in success or fail- ure. Each faculty member, froni the |)resident to the instructor, takes a vital part in the fu- ture role we shall pla as meml ers of the world i ' ommunit . What does the facult mean to us? Just ask the a erage senior what he has gotten from his four-year academic pursuit. From Dr. ' Lets ote on it Ott he has learned the essence of democracy: from Mr. Stafford he got the ad ice. e er go be ond our data ; from Mrs. Milner he received the gestalt notion; with Dr. Ljung he practiced patience in Working on unknowns: ' from Mr. Feagins he gras])ed iur the first time the concept of ■ ultimate realit : ' from Dr. Milner he learned that e er thing is a well-integrated, uni- fied whole. . . . This could go on. but |jerha]js it is alread ob ious ihat our academic debt to the facuh is great. But is that all the lacultx means to us? Think of some of the extra-curricula activities: Dr. Purdom ' s hikes. Dr. Olt ' s outings. Dr. CamijIielTs graduations. Mrs. Milner s Marriage and the Family lectures. Mr. . Stafford ' s teas with seminar attached. Miss Gilbert ' s quiet Quakerism. Mr. Inderwood ' s choir trij)S. Mr. Kents dramatics, and Dr. Milners dignified words of friendly admonition. And think of ihe pleasure that we students derixe in making up jokes aliout the slowness of Mr. Bailey or the sophistr of Mr. Feagins or the tacitur- nity of the coaches or the politics of Furdom. Or think of the fun received from the secret use of the labels: Mother Milly. The Great Bald Eagle. Charles Cold I ' nderwear. ' or the garbage |jile re])orter. Studies, extra-curricular work, humor, and all the personal help and interest that can not be yml into uortl.s — that is uhat the facult means to us. And so to those creatures called teachers, ue cxpre s our sincere appreciation for their charaiter. leadership, and friendl interest in us. To them, we oue much — more than anvone is n(ju able to set — and iid at a greater distance with the passing of time will their real worth be fulK appreciated. FACULTY 10
