TVCDIDA WS IIIDIEAILS Today's ideals for McPherson College gather around such words as self-realiza- tion, achievement, service and character. Education has become personality center-- ed. The welfare and development of the in- dividual personality js at the heart of our whole educational procedure. Around that purpose the curriculm is built and all activ- ities gather. To discover the innate, .Aher- ent capacities and abilities of every student and to develop them to their greatest and most effective self expression is the purpose of our college. The College seeks to give knowledge and to develop such habits and skills in the stu- dent as are required for notable achieve- ment in the various fields of human en- deavor. The student is not to be a selfish scholar, nor a scornful critic of the universe but a citizen who is willing to dedicate all his power to the welfare of his fellowman. The ultimate success of our whole educa- tional enterprise rests upon the hope that our graduates may be socially minded, un- selfish, and humanitarian. The aim of every worthwhile college is to produce character. The most appalling need of our time is strength of inner manhood . Christian morality and Christian character can be expected only Where the Christian religion is taught and practiced. To these ideals we are dedicating our effort and the resources of McPherson College. -V. F. Schwalm. ROBERT ELLSWORTH MOHLER, M. s. D Dean Mohler sees that the better side of o1ze's character is at least' on the outside. His ability as a diplo- mat is highly respected. ean of the College B. S. D., McPherson College, 19075 A.
