Mississippi College, like the rock in a weary land, has stood true to God and his program, has striven to meet all human needs and to pro- mote truth and virtue. In this era of confusion, she still points the way of wisdom. For over a century she has met the rush of time. Tried in the fires, most of the wood and stubble have burned, leaving only the gold and pure metals. During the years she has changed, but always has settled more firmly upon her rock founda- tion — Christ.
