DEANS’ PAGE DEAN OF INSTRUCTION The growth of Lyndon Teachers College has been, in part, a result of the efforts of the Class of 1956. The class and the people in the class have made the college a better place in which to work, study, and live. The growth of the college has a counterpart in your growth, both as a class and as individuals. You have grown personally and professionally. As we help others to grow, we grow ourselves. This is a basic theme of education. Our growth de- pends upon the growth of others, and their growth depends upon ours. It takes time, energy, and strong desire to help others to grow. Many times it seems to be the longest and hardest road of the many roads we might take. Where we can have the choice, the road that helps others to grow is the best road. You have given to LTC and have helped it to grow. Choose to do the same for the school in which you work, the community in which you live, and the people with whom you work. DR. JAMES K. DUNCAN DEAN OF WOMEN TO THE CLASS OF 1956- May the growth of Lyndon be a symbol of your growth as individuals and in your profession. It is to be hoped that Lyndon may continue to be of service to you and that you. now alumni, will con- tinue to be of service to Lyndon. Lyndon is proud to be represented by you. We wish for each of you the best of success and happiness. SUSAN C. GALLAGHER MRS. GALLAGHER DR. DUNCAN 5

ADMINISTRATION It is sometimes too easy to forget our debt to the past and to overlook our obligation to the future. But at Lyndon Teachers College it is difficult to forget that we owe much to those who have gone before us. The careful planning of Mr. Vail, from the unyielding rock founda- tions to the solid copper roof, is evident in our physical surroundings. The untiring work of Miss Bole and her assistants is manifest in the sound principles of practice and theory upon which our college is built. We are constantly reminded that out of the past has come a her- itage which only those of genuine vision could have provided. It is difficult, also, here at Lyndon Teachers College to disregard the challenge of the fu- ture. Looking out across the valleys and the mountains, the farms and the homes, the stores and the factories, we see a way of life we cherish and a land we love. We would be dull in- deed if we failed to feel that all this which is so much a part of us is ours to protect and strengthen. And in our daily work we feel a unity of purpose and a dedication to the best that is in us. Let us continue to build here a college which is worthy of the best traditions of the past and from which will grow the courage and the wisdom to meet whatever the future may hold. • S.
