RC Finished 4th in a field of six other colleges during the Second Annual Rockford Invitational Cross Country Meet. The Purpose and Philosophy of Rockford Col- lege as established by the Board of Trustees on June 6 was as follows: uThe fundamental purpose of Rockford College is to provide an educational program which will assist the student to develop the full use of his intellectual capabilities and to call into play his highest motives so that he may be a creative, courageous and constructive member of society. The educational program presents, through for- mal studies, a broad range of theoretical knowl- edge, attempting to give the student an under- standing of himself, of society, of the natural uni- verse, and of the world of art and humanities. The College further includes in the experience of learning a diversihed program of activities per- mitting the student many informal opportunities to augment, test, and apply the knowledge ob- tained in his studies. The philosophy of the College is based upon these premises: 'SMan is a thinking and feeling being. Therefore, the College seeks to confirm in each student a concern for truth, a respect for fact, the habit of inquiry, the practice of intellectual discipline, and the art of creative expression. Man is a social being. Therefore, the College nurtures in the student a belief in the inherent dignity and worth of each individual. It seeks to help the student discover the attitudes and con- duct which will lead him to exercise that integrity
