Mi« Boyd enjoys a Rood book like a Rood triend. Here on the campus of Hope College, we have many professors who are outstanding m their fields. One such person is Miss Laura Boyd, chairman of the Departure of German and one of the most admired and respected persons on our campus. As a German teacher she has made her courses an inspiring study of some of the world s best literature. As Pan-Hellenic Council advisor she has helped us to form more significant and interestina social groups. As a member of the Student Direction Committee and the Administrative Committee she has worked for the constant improvement of her adopted college. As a citizen of the community she has been a part of the Daughters of the American Revolution. As an educated woman she has been active in the Woman s Literary Club and in the local chapter of the American Association of University Women. As a Christian she has been outstanding in her church and taught a Sunday School class for twenty-five years. But best of all we sec Miss Boyd as a friend, one who is interested, concerned, and sympathetic with all the students on campus. Miss Boyd has stood for many years as one of the preservers of tradition on our campus, and yet, she is not one to blindly follow tradition. She believes in using the best of the past to modify the present in order to make the best future. She remembers yesterday but she lives today for a better tomorrow. Culture, tact, graciousness, patience, kindness would be just a few of her other admira- ble qualities. We of the class of 1952 feel that she represents the finest result of Christian education and we look to her as an inspiring example to follow and to her character as an ideal goal to attain. Thus to the most loved and respected lady on campus, to Miss Laura A Boyd, we the Class of 1952 dedicate our Milestone. Miss Boyd is always ready and willing to render assistance. Page Seven ....
