DEDICATION To a man who has given his life, love, devotion, and knowledge to his students, we the editor and staff of the 1963 BOBASHELA, dedicate our annual. Wherever his name is mentioned a smile comes to the face of all those who have known him. He has truly wanted each one of his students to learn. He never ceases to amaze his classes with sur- prises. This man is a unique actor for knowledge who plays a different role each day whether he is a glacier or a planet. His dramatic enthusiasm never rests until the whole class shares it. He il- lustrates each fact with an interesting personal experience — one never forgotten. He has molded students not only into scientists but also into indi- viduals. His unselfishness, fairness, patience, gentlemanly manners, and desire for everyone to be happy, have made him a rare, cherished teach- er and friend. Because he has given himself to his profession and shared with us his knowledge in a perfect way, and because he has set the finest example as a person before all Millsaps students, we honor in the 1963 BOBASHELA— DR. RICHARD RANDALL PRIDDY.
