VISIONS REALIZED

. We Dedicate Ideals originate in the mental shroud of worthy images. They are nourished by the encompassing web of their environment. Once born, they must be bred by a perpetual fire of inspiration within oneself and from oneself. They are delicate and fragile at birth, but. once firmly impregnated become immortal. Our ideals were conceived within our college halls. They were nourished by the echoing challenge breathed upon them by the transpiration of thought and the osmosis of responsibility passing through the shroud, from professor to student. The amoeba moved and engulfed its surroundings until it had shaped itself into its image. It lived, it grew, it breathed. Now it must seek itself out. The attainment of our ideal will now influence the ideals of others. Our role has changed from receiver to reaper, from carrier to creator. We go out with a rich past and a promising future. Within our hands will be the priceless putty of minds, to be molded and shaped by the skilled hands of educators. The expanding horizon is ours and our blazing sun must never set in the West, leaving naught but abject night. 6
