Many students find that their Held work helps them secure insight into the real nature and purpose of education, and thereby becomes an in- tegrating force for their entire educational experience. We are entering an era in which the contribution of the church-related college will become increasingly important. High- er education has recognized its bank- ruptcy without moral and religious foun- dations. The age ofthe worship of science came to a sudden close with the discovery ofthe atomic bomb. Today higher educa- tion - including its leading scientists themselves-is searching for a moral and spiritual basis on which to build a world of peace and order. Keuka's program is progressive and unique. Its new President has the con- fidence of students, faculty, and trustees and has been at the very center of Keuka,s recent development. We are now at the threshold of a new period of emphasis on higher education. Can there be any doubt, then, that Keuka is entering upon a new day of enlarged opportunity and useful- ness.

ESTEY Regfytraz' Eminem .Manager Director of Placement EDUCATION AT KE KA COLLEGE The purpose of Keuka's educational program is threefold: It seeks to provide an education specifically suited to the needs of womeng it uses a unique com- bination of work and study to achieve its objectives: and it carries on the whole undertaking in an atmosphere ofChristian culture. 'lihe education of women, properly con- ceived. is not just a slightly adapted copy of the education of men. ln addition to their traditional role as wives and moth- ers. a new place is rapidly evolving in American culture for women: that of part- time worker and community-minded citi- zen. All three of these aspects of adult womanhood are highly specialized activi- ties Which are entirely different from those of men. No realistic education of Women can neglect their implications. Keuka recognizes these obligations imposed upon her and is increasingly seeking to meet them. The field work plan is now accepted as a matter ofcourse at Keuka by students and faculty although the liberal arts tra- dition has not been sacrificed in favor ofa purely vocationalized training.
