Martinson, Jr. September 25, 1987 Alfred North Whitehead once said that, moral education is impossible apart from the habitual vision of greatness. I believe that we at High Point College are commissioned to create a vision of greatness. When we realize that most people live all of their lives having never realized their greatest potential, we are reminded that we cannot settle for less than our best. Sneering disbelief is our enemy. One of the things I enjoy most at High Point College is talking and working with students who always seem to impress me with their optim- ism, their maturity, their sense of responsibility and their achievement. It is a privilege to work with such people and I count myself blessed with more than my share of life ' s satisfactions. I commend the class of 1988 . You have made genuine contributions to the life of our lovely campus; we wish you well, and we will watch your future with great interest. The rising classes of 1989, 1990, and 1991 have been challenged by your inspiring example. Together, we will try to do justice to the marvelous pace which you have set for all of us. Sincerely, ) 6 y IkZ Prologue 5
