W. J. TRENT Dr. Trent, our beloved president emeritus is considered to be a man of courage, ambition, and honor. During the time he served as President of Livingstone College, many new improve- ments were made. Trent Gymnasium stands today as one of them. Although the Class of ' 62 arrived just as he was leaving, we will always feel his presence with us and cherish his memory. 9

THE PRESIDENT ' S MESSAGE The efforts of the Class of 1962 in producing the Yearbook signal the closing months leading to graduation. The publication constitutes an ap- propriate expression of students and staff concerning the academic, pro- fessional and extra-class activities of the four years. To relive the college experiences of the past and put to good effective use those in which you are presently engaged must indeed be a privilege. The classes before you left their influence indelibly on the pages of their annual as well as on the lives of their fellow students. You, too, shall leave a brief but important record of your contributions and that of your col- lege mates for the inspiration of those who shall follow you and for your own review in years to come. May what you have learned and all you have lived here stimulate you toward further achievement in the interest of those whom you shall serve. May whatever you added to the ongo of the Livingstone spirit find its place in the lives of those who, too, shall find what you discovered beneath the tall maples and the great oaks. Congratulations to the 1962 Class and to the Livingstone Alumni of tomorrow on the production of the materials herein, and commendation for manifesting much of that taught by staff members who will remain in- terested in your futures. — S. E. Duncan 8

TO THE SENIOR CLASS: VICTOR JULIUS TULANE, B.S., M.S., Ph.D. DEAN, COLLEGE OF LIBERAL ARTS ALCESTIS McCOLLOUGH COLEMAN, B.A. DEAN OF WOMEN I am glad of this opportunity to compliment you on the record of your school days here at Livingstone. When you first arrived here, you had a goal in view. To accomplish that goal meant sacri- fice, ardous study, strength of character, and the tenacity to hold fast until your goal was at- tained. This yearbook is partial evidence that a ten- tative goal has been attained. I say tentative goal because the day of your graduation will not be the ending of your career, only the beginning. A world of travail, of pain, and of disillusion- ment awaits you, but it will determine whether what you have done here has steeled you to stand the test of time. But be not afraid, . . . but strong in will, to strive, to seek, to find, and not to yield. -V. J. TULANE EDGAR N. FRENCH, A. B., B.D., M.A. DEAN OF MEN 10
