GLASSBORO STATE COLLEGE Glassboro, New Jersey ■V , — 1 ALMA MATER Ada P. Schlable, ' 23 Alma Mater, we greet thee. All Praise lo thy name; Thy banner unfurl to the breeze. Thy children salute thee and pledge to Ihy lame As soldiers who drink to the leas. All about thee arise the first temples of God, Lifting high, leafy arms to the sky. And the flowers that bloom in the green of the sod Seem lo love thee too fondly to die. Loved school, ' lis thine to import to Ihy youth The wisdom within thy fair walls. May we daily teach others with courage and truth The lessons we learn in thy halls. Thou art more than a plan; thou art more than cold stone Thou art spirit and beauty and light. And the standards we raise in the years ' ntalh thy dome Are the standards for which we shall fight. Bunce Hall i

DEDICATION An enigmatic blend of concern and com- passion seasoned with knowledge, wisdom, and humor only begin to describe this dedi- cated and beloved Professor of Education on our campus. Derived from his genuine belief in and love for human beings, his deep commitment to growth in each person has resulted in his self-expenditure of the most noble and yet humble kind. Four years ago, we, as freshmen, initiated the task of fathoming the meaning of our existence and its implications for our future. For many of us, he has been the catalyst enabling necessary chain reactions and sub- sequent growth to occur. His gently dynamic personality radiates integrity, strength, and simplicity. We see in him the culmination of a special inner quietude nurtured by many years of fruitful living. He has endeavored to truly live and he has devoted his life to the purpose of making our lives more meaningful and complete. We, the Senior Class of 1967, feel a deep pleasure in dedicating our OAK, the tangible representation of our life at Glossboro, to one so vitally involved in the art of living. Dr. Birger Myksvoll.
