5 3 ss iss 5 ? EE Q is R P 7 fs i P S gi. F 2 7 is P A F THE WESLEYAN WAY HE mission of the college-of every college--is to hroaden. and to deepen. and to stren then: to in the weakening depressions, to knock off the offensive ' angles: in short. to do for the plastic mind entrusted to it the things necessary to develop its fullest capabilities for usefulness. . K Character. usefulness. community influence. comprise the barometer that tests the specific gravity of a colleges alumni. If the test shows a low average reading. the college do well to institute a rigid self-examination. The Vslesleyan alumni Barometer reads high. The record made hy the sons and daughters of the Wesleyan is remark- afhle. Xvherever found-in rural village or in the country's emporium, in Twentieth-century America or henighted Africa.-the Xvesleyan alumnus is a center of influence, and is doing hisvshare of the-Wor1d's work. The Wesleyan is not a large college-does not aspire to unlversfty honors. A college of sa dozen well-endowed, well-equipped. well-manned. chairs-this is her ideal. In such colleges. rather than in the great universities. is found the true college life. the true college spirit. that best molds and malces' the man. v The small college has no longer a place or mission in Illinois. Put this assertion to the test hy learning in any community in the state. fn Bloomington for example. how large a percentage of its college men of influence are alumni of the smaller colleges of the state. and how small the per- centage among them of graduates of the great universities of the state. - . Then. to test still further. learn what percentage of these alumni of the small colleges would have gone to college at all. had the great universities of the state been their only recourse. Strike from the history of Illinois the pages that tell thereon of the influence of her small colleges and their alumni. and the volume he sadly mutilated. Strike from Illinois lite to-day the personality and work and influence of Knox and Monmouth and Wesleyan and Lake Forest and Millikin and half a score of others: and that life would he weakened and marred beyond Belief. The Wesleyan stands for au that is hest and highest in education. mental. moral. spiritual. New buildings rising on her campus, new gifts, assurances of further buildings and further gifts soon to come. are harhfngers of still greater work and worth in the years to come. --GRAHAM WWW H3W5'3H3W
