TRIBUTE DR. EDWARD DIMNENT After fortyfnine years of self-sacrifice and devoted service to Hope College, Dr. Ed- ward Dimnent retired from his position as the head ot the Business Administration de- partment, and as a professor on Hope's Campus. The half-century Dr, Dimnent devoted to the college he loved, had seen many changes, and he was instrumental in inaugurating many of them. The college doubled in enroll- ment, and the financial status was greatly improved. Perhaps the greatest single achieve- ment in those years was to act as the guiding hand in the building of the Hope Memorial Chapel. lts design and its awesome beauty were entirely the product of his imagina- tion and intellect. Honored and revered, Dr, Edward Dimnent is truly one of the great men of his genera- tion. lt is with a feeling of pride in being a part of the great tradition he has left behind, that we of the Milestone Staff of 1949, honor Dr. Edward Dimnent, distinguished President Emeritus of Hope College.
