S oocf l3ucl? . . Mrs. Spencer T. Olin and Dr. Wimpress returning from the inauguration service. May 29, 196-1 Dear Dr. Wimpress. It was the middle of the year when you walked through the doors of Monticello College. Inaugurated on March IS, 1959. you were Monticello's ninth president . . . you were a stranger. You are no longer that stranger; we have only to look around us each and every day to see where you have been and what you have meant to Monticello. The College has seen many improvements during your tenure: a healthy financial status, a school governed by the students, the dormitory renovations, the realization of a beautiful new theatron— Hatheway Hall—and the plans for a new dormitory. More than that, you have been a friend from the beginning. Taking an active interest in each student, you joined the fun: faculty waitress-ing, baseball games, faculty follies, lunch in the dining room, and informal suppers for juniors at the Evergreens. As you so aptly said to the class of 1959, we have come to have for you true affection and deep respect. We send our warmest wishes with you and hope that Monticello forever has found a place in your heart.” Good luck and Godspeed.” The Class of 1964 18 This is for you. Dr. Myers.
