Ulbe Spirit uf the Ttinihersitp I , the Spirit of Illinois State Normal University, have ufitnessed many changes through many years. The University ufas founded February 18, 1857. It u-as the first state normal school to be estab- lished in the lllississippi Valley and the ninth to be founded in the United States. The Main Building is the oldest state normal school building in use in the Nationf: and though it may possess features no longer included in planning buildings for .similar purposes, yet Old Main through those very feature.s stands as a proud monument to those far-sighted Illinois pioneers u'ho because of their ufisdom and progressive spirit acted out at an early day their belief in the cause of common school education. I have given inspiration to more than thirty-ive hundred men and women u'ho after graduation have gone forth with a desire to aid others in gaining a fuller control of the values of life. Thousands of others, too, during someurhat limited periods of instruction have gained a broadened vision of the aims and a more complete mastery of the art of teaching. Education is a p.sychical process. It.s focal point is the reaction of mind upon mind. Its aim is to help one generation to lsnoug to use, and to improve its social heritage from the generation preceding. The glory of our Alma Mater is nfhat many, many people have made it. They u'ho come and later depart more fit as members of society have contributed to this glorylg and .still richer groivs the con- tribution as the subsequent year.s find them ever rendering ivorthy service unto others. And many who no longer serve by their present labors have left behind an impress of standards and ideals that in the future year.s urill .still help form the soul of the University. They .serve well their .school u'ho help to bring about a school improved: yet they serve best who aid in having a school that is not merely improved-but improving. 8
