D eans Cominent We are luckv, indeed, here at Lvcoming that no barriers separate faculty and students. The absence of such barriers makes possible a unique unity of purpose. During my initial interview with our President, it became apparent to me that he is alert to those purposes and functions of administration which stimulate the cooperative labors and thoughts of facult and students. Pro- grams of action which rest on foundations of co-operati e collaboration are not only fortified against failure, but the spirit of mutual respect and confidence sets the stag e for impro ements and change towards effecti e growth and enlarged services. No member of this graduatino class needs to be told that the most intriguing subject in the world is his own future. No doubt he and his parents, teachers, and friends have given this sub- ject a great deal of thought. It is our hope that vour future will be identified with that of your beloved college. Your alma mater, with a bright and promising future, has a great deal to offer you after graduation even as she did during our undergraduate davs. As an alumnus of an experienced institution that has been graduating groups for more than one hundred ears, vou go forth armed with spiritual and ph sical resources that will strengthen ' ou and enable vou to live in a democratic pattern of societ ' . We congratulate you upon vour achie ement. ARCIlin R. AYERS 11
