No college administrator or leader of students is held in higher esteem through- out the Southland than is Dr. Nelson. Under his guidance and leadership and through his skillful management since 1932, Mississippi College climaxes its one hundred thirteen years of existence with the best year yet. Embodied in him are the ideals of our Alma Mater, and by his inspiring example many young people have seen the value and accepted the challenge of the purpose- ful, the fuller life. As a Christian gen- tleman and brilliant scholar, he points the w ay to a higher plane of living. Love and appreciation for this great man are held in reverence in the heart of every Choctaw. Service is the keynote of this great life. His kindly interest in every student’s prob- lems and his sympathetic understanding in dealing with them prove more conclusively than words that he is truly a friend of students. Offering himself without reservation to his task, he continually looks toward the future with faith and determination. Need is often not realized until the one so depended upon is away. Our Presi- dent s absence at the first of the year be- cause of illness brought everyone an even deeper realization of the extent of his m m i mt f Increasing strength and power to Dr. Nelson as he leads our Alma Mater on to greater attain- ments! service and love. OUR PRESIDENT NELSON
