' Pedication Education — an age-old institution — key to under- standing of the outer and the inner world. Education es- tablishing principles of approach to no specific problem, and yet to every problem .... residing not in book knowl- edge alone — rather in development of all faculties of each precious individual — education — emotional, social, phys- ical, as well as intellectual — Education integrating our America — enlightening self and society .... one answer to life ' s crying needs — .... Education — means to an end, not an end in itself — more than a parchment marked with a B.S. degree — a key, not an ornament — with which treasure doors open — To that — so understood — we offer our Book — and, with the Book, our heads, our hands, and, most of all, our hearts. 8

Can we face reality, you ask? These war years have brought many changes and new ideas to P. S. T. C. While watching history whisk past, we have not been idle. Amidst confusion, chaos, and a bewildered world, we — as one small part — have contributed to the preservation of our democratic way of living. First, our boys — it was the War Curriculum which established the foundation that better enabled them to give their best. Then, our girls — the establishment of the United States Cadet Nurse Corps in ' 43 was proof we harkened to the call for nurses. Already some have left the campus — joining various affiliated hospitals to further their training. — Foreseeing the need for teachers, we followed the prece- dent — all over the country — beginning an accelerated course by which students might be graduated in three years — rather than the usual four — if they so chose. And then, our other efforts — the college as a whole volunteered — because of the man-power shortage — to help save the large apple crop at the Chazy Orchards. This became one of our proudest war-time traditions. Each September — for the past three years — we have taken time out from classes. Faded dungarees — gay bandanas — plaid wool shirts — buses echoing the strains of one fish ball — en- thusiasm that does a job and caps weariness with satisfaction — that ' s the way it has been. Red Cross work — the Mobile Blood Bank, War Fund, rolling bandages — War Bond drives, selling War Stamps, nightly epistles .... together they mean something. Therein is the idea of what our college means to us. It is up to you to carry on — for only what YOU put into Plattsburgh will be the Pitts- burgh which lives on. • 7 •
