FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION I expect to pass through this world but once; any good thing therefore that I can do, or any kindness that I can show to any fellow creature, let me do it now; let me not defer or neglect it, for I shall not pass this way again. —Stephen Grellet One fall not long ago we were little chil- dren, apprehensively approaching a school somewhere for the first time in our young lives, part of us clinging to a parent’s warm hand extended down to our side. We found many things to be fascinating—books, cray- ons, games, letters — but foremost in our thoughts and discussions was the intriguing individual known as the teacher. He was a wonderful being to the young eyes that look- ed up to him day to day. Children soon did not mind leaving the hand outside the build- ing quite so much, knowing there was an- other one waiting for them inside. Twelve years have passed since that time and our aspect of teachers has grown. We no longer look up to them as demi-gods; in- stead we recognize them as people, older and wiser than we are, but yet with love, joy, fears, meals to cook, families to raise, dead car batteries, income tax reports, and prob- lems of their own. Many of them have pass- ed up more financially rewarding jobs to give their lives to teaching. Patiently they wade through dry compositions, explain the same mathematical problems to the same class for the fourth day in a row, help a be- wildered pupil, fight the Civil War five times a day, and devote hours after school to de- bating, dramatics, music, service clubs, or athletic teams. They can be no more stag- nant than the world in which they live, for change — mellowed by tradition and tem- pered by age — is necessary to stimulate the youth whom they teach. Thinking back, we remember the times when a word of en- couragement from this teacher or that gave us the impetus we needed to go on. Looking forward, we realize what the wealth of knowledge our faculty has imparted to us will mean in the future, and thank them from our hearts.
