Tlie Alumni Association Every school that has been worthy of the space it has occupied in the world has produced graduates who have left the impress of their lives upon the times in which they have lived, and who have held in honor the institution that gave them birth. Our Alumni Association, created suddenly in modern times, was lacking in the misty background of tradition out of which strange, heroic stories grow; yet almost at the beginning of our existence there appeared romancers who caught the spirit of the times, and elaborated the events of their lives, giving them magical form. While we have not yet arrived at the age of maturity as an association, you will find us scattered all over this land of ours from cold Alaska on the northwest to Florida’s land of perpetual summer on the southeast. From out of this goodly number there have appeared doctors, lawyers, musicians, busi¬ ness men and women, teachers, and dignified young matrons, many of whom are artists in their respective lines. Each Commencement finds many of them return¬ ing for the annual reunion and festivities, for it matters not how far we may go, nor how long we may stay, to us the Louisiana Industrial Institute remains the same. It is still the dear “old Industrial ' ’ and holds for us memories as fond as those of childhood, and associations as dear as those of home. At the business meeting of the Alumni Association in 1904, it was decided to award a medal each year to the student of the Louisiana Industrial Institute attaining the highest average in scholarship and deportment. The first Alumni medal was awarded to Mr. J. W. Mobley, of the class of 1905. The next year the medal was awarded to Mr. J. A. Lupo, of the class of 1906. In 1907 the medal was awarded to Mr. Clinton McGehee, now a student at the United States Naval Academy. Last year the tables turned and for the first time the medal was awarded to one of the girls of the school, Miss Ruth Lane, of the class of 1910. The officers of the Association are: Glenn N. Walker, ’05, President; Jenny Bell, ’07, Vice-President; John P. Graham, ’00, Secretary-Treasurer. 20
