Presentation The old order changeth yielding place to the new. And God fulfills himself in many ways Lest one good custom should corrupt the world. — Tennyson. Out of the past have evolved all traditions and institutions. The old has always been the foundation upon vi hich the new was built. During the years, Indiana has passed through various stages of evolution until now it is no longer a normal school based upon a two-year course, but a professional school of college rank offering a degree in education. This is Indiana ' s first year as a teachers college, and a new trend of development has begun. One of the most marked features has been the change in the yearbook. Due to this transitional period the name of the annual was changed from The Instano , a grouping of the first few letters of each of the words Indiana State Normal , to The Oak . This name was chosen because of the many fine specimens of oaks which have been a part of the campus for hundreds of years, and because of the strength of character, the slow but steady growth, and the enduring qualities which this mighty tree symbolizes. Progress, the keynote of Indiana, is a combination of these three significant characteristics. We have tried to make this annual one that will be in keeping with this ideal of our school. This book is presented with the earnest hope that it will bring the Class of 1928 pleasant reminiscences and recollections of days filled with work, play, and friendship. — The Editor.

The Oak Great Oak, that stands upon the green. Reveal to me thy bliss of life supreme. My hopes are stirred, my anchor weighed. Oh grant to me thy wisdom undismayed Of victory o ' er seductive gain, And lift my eyes from earth ' s grim deeps of pain. Thy arms to birds at close of day Give rest and peace along their weary way; Teach me. to care for weak and strong That I, like you, may earthly joy prolong. Thou Oak, hast lived through strife and storm; Thy sturdy limbs from thee were well-nigh torn. E ' en though, great Oak, thy life has been. Live on, great Oak, a life of God with men. — Wm. B. Gailey.
