THOMAS E. ROBINSON Glassboro State Teachers College has tried to be for each of you a bridge. One end was buttressed upon the desire you expressed when you entered — to teach in the schools of New Jersey. The other end has been established upon the threshold of the classrooms in which you will eventually teach. If the bridge has been wisely and firmly built, as we believe it has been, you will step confidently and successfully through the classroom thresholds into careers which will supply you with much personal satisfaction -and will simultaneously help produce a better life for the next generation. Some day you will see more clearly the strands which have gone into the making of the bridge. The strands perhaps are now too intertwined to be easy of identification. Yet among them are certainly the talented teachings of a dedicated faculty, the joyous associations with friendly class- mates, the character-forming traditions of a growing institution; the pleasures, strivings, disappointments, and triumphs of four years of living— all colored with mutual true respect and affection one for the other. As you have builded yourselves into Glassboro, so Glassboro has tried to build itself into you. Your future lives will show that the deep confidence that we have in you is justified. Six

Robert Bole Dean of Education DEAN OF INSTRUCTION Wednesday, December 3, 1952 was a significant day for all those interested in the welfare of our college. On that day the legislature enacted legislation assuring us of additional building facilities — two dormitories, a demonstration school, a library and a food service building. The State of New Jersey is giving us new tools to do a difficult job. Our task is to train in ever-increasing numbers teachers sorely needed to meet New Jersey ' s rapidly increasing school enrollments. The State expects us to graduate more teachers while at the same time holding on to the high standards Glassboro has always maintained. This is a challenging task. To bring to fruition the hopes of all those interested in Glassboro will require the dedicated and united efforts of faculty, students, alumni, and all friends of the college. Evelyn M. Reade Dean of Women DEAN OF WOMEN June 195 3 and Commencement is to each Senior the fulfillment of sixteen years of work. This fulfillment, we hope, means your entrance in the teaching profession and the beginning of a full, rich, and happy career. Nothing is more challenging than teaching youth. Never has the need for teachers been greater nor has more been expected from them. We shall miss you at Glassboro, but we send you into your chosen profession confident of your success. When youth come to you in search of knowledge, friendship and understanding, we know you shall not fail them. Samuel E. Witchell Deatt of Men DEAN OF MEN Like rosemary, yearbooks are for remembrance. These pages are a storehouse for pleasant memories, treasures which no thief can steal. The years will alter your hierarchy of values but these )3ossessions will gain lustre. We shall be sad, however, if you look back upon college days as the best years of our lives. These days should be prologue to the better life. You have been standing upon the shoulders of the past. From your vantage point new horizons should be seen. Your greatest compensation as a teacher will come with the knowledge that a new generation is standing on your shoulders. Seven
