The decade of the 1960's is running out. It is a decade marked by dramatic changes in education. It is a decade that brings promise of more remarkable developments yet to come. Although there has always been a change in education, it must be obvious, to even the casual observer, that the rate of change has been increasing in an astonishing manner over the past ten years. Surely, as new teachers in the exhilarating climate of educational progress, you will want to participate in the experimentation and in the new procedures which are a part of the modern school. By all means, this is what you should do. However, may I urge you that you examine new developments critically? Accept ideas which will help your pupils but remember that there are many educational developments from the past which are still sound and which will bring benefit to pupils even in this modern age. As you begin your careers in this exciting era, I Wish you great success and happiness. D . H . Botly, Vice-Principal. Two roads diverged in a yellow wood, And sorry I could not travel both And be one traveller, long I stood And looked down one as far as I could To where it bent in the undergrowthg Then took the other, as just as fair And having perhaps the better claim.. . I shall be telling this with a sigh Somewhere ages and ages henceg Two roads diverged in a wood, and I I took the one less travelled by, And that has made all the difference. from: THE ROAD NOT TAKEN - Robert Frost May the future prove that you took the right road in deciding to follow the path of education as your chosen profession. Closely bound with all your aspirations, this choice will have major bearing on the sense of fulfilment that you achieve in your lifetime, and will fashion the contribution that you make to the society in which you live. Our months together at the College have taken you only through the entrance of the road. The years ahead will present the constant necessity of making further choices of which fork to follow. Man demands change, so education cannot remain static either in its content or in its method. Some- times you should be blazing new trails: sometimes you should follow the old. Neither can be entirely good or bad. The greatest danger lies in following one to the exclusion of the other. So strive to try the new while recognizing the value of the old. Years from now, when you look back over your work, have no regrets over the roads which you may have explored fruitlessly. The very exploration will have helped you to find others which led to hilltops providing new vistas of the puzzling world of man. A.IVI. J. McKenzie, Dean of Women. ' 6-
