CREDO O I believe in Ripon College. How could it be otherwise? Here 1 have lived and loved and labored, as student, alumnus, parent of students, citizen, and have spent twenty-five years in administrative service. These all give experience, and. we trust, some wisdom to this profession of faith. 'The heloved community of students, alumni, parents, and citizens have placed their faith in Ripon College. This does not mean a complacent satis- faction, or a pride of opinion, or wishful thinking. We want this faith essen- tially to speak for the substance of things hoped for. grounded in the things that were and are. The spirit of Ripon College, in a way deeper and truer than 1 can possibly describe, is unique in being just itself among a group of distinctive schools of its type. Our college will continue to be a drilling ground for leadership, a place for fostering friendships, an opportunity to achieve skills and habits which will serve in future situations; it will continue to develop the faculty of using one’s faculties in service for others. We want to gain what the world so much needs—balanced personality to meet forthcoming perplexities. We want to keep in our vocabulary that word ought. Wc want an atmosphere which favors freedom, culture, thirst for knowledge, and Christian idealism. Our emphasis will continue to he upon teaching rather than upon research, or rather such teaching as creates a strong appetite for investigation, and a zeal to put knowledge to practical purposes. Our central aim is to educate leaders. We have no sectarian interests. Our hopes for realizing these ideals are grounded upon the measure of suc- cess that Ripon has already achieved under many handicaps in the past. Our graduates everywhere. I find, are measuring up to the requirements of the day in wholesome and forward-looking leadership, aligning themselves with insti- tutional and spiritual forces in a strongly constructive manner. We believe in this College, and it is ours to love and to make. This book gives symbols of our sentiments, pictures of persons, outsight to insight, artful hints of college activities: in short, a unification of the whole round of college life. View it all. and pause over it. not only to think, but to meditate and become wiser and more loyal in our faith in Ripon College. 17—
