FOREWORD 'Wihat is yo' impo'tance to de state P' the dictator asked one of the end-men in Kongo Kapers, the 1934 hfinstrel Show. It is the old query as to function put anew. Socrates inquired of his listeners, 'Wihat is justice? ..., I ustice is doing onels ownf In Socrates' mind justice was necessary both to the state and to the citizen. For the state, it meant the right functioning of the wholeg in reference to the citizen it became fthe quality . . . of every one's doing his own workf VVe might include in our discussions at hffaddox House two questions which involve the essence of this Socratic conception: What is the function of Rockford College? What is the function of those who make and are made by R. C.? Socrates gave his own reply. To supply the answers to our questions is the purpose of the 1936 Cupola. But we do not need to formulate answers: we have only to reveal them. They are already embodied in our campus activities. The presentation of them proceeds from college groups to those persons who have best conceived their individual and communal purposes. The truest answer appears in the Queen on lNflay Day. She represents the woman who is most 6impo'tant to de state, of R. C. Is assistance in the development of every potential hffay Queen into a woman who will be queenly each day of the year, the function of Rockford College? 17
