When this landmark is gone, Van Vleck Hall will be the last reminder of the original Hope College which was founded by Dr. A. C. Van Raalte, leader of the Holland colony, in 1861. But no, one thing more stands. It is the noble idealism which was in the mind of the old patriarch as he labored indefatiguably for the realization of his dream. Dr. Van Raalte believed firmly in higher education. But also he saw clearly what many educators are just beginning to realize today. He saw that formal learning without a goal is an empty shell, that acquired knowledge is meaningless until it has a center or focal point from which to take its meaning, and that the highest center is God. The consequence of this prophetic vision was the establishment of a Christian college. Today Hope College still clings to Dr. Van Raalte's vision. The cross on the towering spires of the Memorial Chapel symbolizes her steadfastness in the faith. Her purpose of sending out into the world Christian leaders in every field of endeavor remains un- changed. Therefore in this sobering year of international strife, when all motives are silhouetted clearly against a background of imminent peril, we, the class of nineteen forty-three dedicate the 1942 MILESTONE to the Christian ideals of our college.
