It is typical of the friendly atmosphere which prevails on the Pitt State compus that we find President Rees 11. I lughes strolling past the Stu- dent Center with students Boh Schnackenberg, Joan Caspari and Joyce Platz. I lowever materially wealthy a school may be, the true value of education is derived from class and extra-class activities. A school is but a “merry- go-round,” without faculty and classes; a school but a tomb, without the variety of enrollees rang- ing from earnest, studious scholars to vivacious, carefree students to whom classes are a neccssan evil. T he congeniality among students, and between students and the faculty is an integral part of the heritage of fifty years that belongs to each and every Pitt Stater. Page 13

 From the classroom, laboratory, shop and office come the faculty to attend the regular faculty meetings held in the Student Center. This picture, taken at one of the meetings shows only a portion of the faculty, and cannot attempt to portray the qualifications, degrees, experience, and personal- ities that are here represented. From an original faculty of five, in 1903, the instructional staff of the College has grown to around 200, fully and efficiently staffing the twelve departments of the school.
