CONVICTIONS AND OBJECTIVES OF THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES The trustees of R. M. C. are convinced that Christian ideals and values are basic in the education of an individual. The menace of education devoid of Christian ideals and moral integrity is revealed in the blossoming of pagan education in Soviet Russia. The trustees seek to build an institution in which the individual student can discover and develop his God-given potentialities, where the whole man may be educated and made a constructive member of society. They do not seek mass production (or conformity) in education. Such an institution must be academically excellent. Its faculty mus t be well educated, continually studying on their own, able to inspire in students a passion for knowledge, and themselves be possessed of a Christian orientation. Quality education is expensive. At the present time student fees at R M C pay about a third of the operating cost of the college. Tuition and fees are being raised in practically all institutions of higher learning. This trend will doubtless continue. Through increased scholarship funds, the trustees will endeavor to see that gifted students who need assistance in order to attend college will receive aid. As trustees of a church-related college, we look to the members of the churches for intelligent interest. Their sense of responsibility for the welfare and progress of R.M. C. will enable it to make an invaluable contribution to- ward the preservation of freedom and the future strength of our country. by Dr. George E. Stickney
