THE QUAKER GUILFORD COLLEGE GREENSBORO, N.C.

Page 8 text:

Dedication It is with mixed emotions that Guilford College accepts the fact that five faculty members who have served the institution for a total of 120 years will be retiring after Commencement 79. We are saddened by their loss; yet, we celebrate with them as they commence upon their years of well-earned retirement. As Ed Burrows, E. Kidd Lockard, Mildred Marlette, John Pipkin, and Eugene Thompson end their teaching roles, only they can truly know the joys and frustrations which their long careers have brought them. While they may be aware of some, they cannot possibly know all the subtle and helpful ways in which they have touched the lives of their many students, not how those students in turn will influence their associate for years to come. While student lives are richer because of such teachers as these, so too, is Guilford richer and stronger. It is through such individuals that Guilford has achieved its marked excellence as an institution of higher learning. And it is people such as these, now and in the future, who will provide the college with an even firmer foundation in the coming years. We shall miss them as teachers, but we hope that they will remain close within the Guilford family. Edward Burrows Professor of Non-Western Studies and History A SIMPLE PRAYER Lord, make me an instrument of your peace Where there is hatred ... let me sow love. Where there is injury . . . pardon. Where that is doubt . . . faith. Where there is dispair . . . hope. Where there is darkness . . . light. Where there is sadness . . . joy. Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek To be consoled ... as to console, To be understood ... as to understand. To be loved ... as to love for It is in giving . . . that we receive, It is in pardoning . . . that we are pardoned. It is in dying . . . that we are born to eternal life.
