DR. F.L. BATES PRINCIPAL SASKATCHEWAN TEACHERS’ COLLEGE REGINA When the last student of the 1963-64 class walks down the steps for the final time, an era in teacher edu¬ cation in Regina comes to a close. That student is the last of a long, long line of students to graduate from this Teachers ' College. It has been a somewhat itinerant College located in several buildings and spots in Southern Saskatchewan. Its graduates, too, have travelled, often far in a physical sense and many, far in the professional or other occupational worlds. In the minds and hearts of many of us there will be an extra feeling of sadness at your parting. We are sorry to see you go and sorry to see the end of the Teachers ' College. But the end of one era in teacher education marks the beginning of another. The old building will still be in the business of teacher education as part of the Uni¬ versity of Saskatchewan, Regina Campus. There is stimulus in the challenge of the beginnings of a new venture in teacher education. We are inspired by the experiences of the past and the hopes for the future to face the challenge with some feelings of excitement. There is a parallel situation in the lives of the students going from Teachers ' College. Most of you are leaving a sheltered existence for the stimulating, challenging work of teaching in a classroom. We hope you will be nostalgic and somewhat saddened by the parting from friends at Teachers ' College. We also hope you have profited from your Teachers ' College experiences so that you can meet your challenges with ability and with confidence. This has been a delightful group of people to have in the final year of the Teachers’ College. Your Year¬ book provides the opportunity for you to reflect upon the year ' s activities. You have had a lively and a busy life here. You served yourselves and your College with distinction. In general, we enjoyed watching and help¬ ing the students in the variety of things that students do to make a College year memorable and profitable both individually and collectively. Not all the dimensions of teacher education tend to appear in a Yearbook. We hope that some of these dimensions have appeared with considerable force in the program of the year. Two, in particular, readily come to mind. We trust that interest in learning and scholarship have been stimulated so that this dimension becomes a permanent quality of you as teachers and as citizens. And we hope that you have become, or are now able to become, sensitive to and perceptive of the needs of children in this society. Without these qualities of mind and spirit there are dreary years of teaching ahead of you. This we do not predict. You are leaving us with the impression of a group who will enrich and enliven the teaching profession. On behalf of the Faculty I wish all of you success and a long life of good teaching.

DIRECTOR OF TEACHER TRAINING You, who are graduating from Teachers ' College in 1964, may think it strange, but I do envy you. I envy you because: --you have had the opportunity of being taught by such an outstanding group of master teachers. --you are about to enter the world of teaching, a world that is in a state of flux, a world that, while it may at times be somewhat frightening, is always chal¬ lenging, interesting and exciting. --you are entering a profession dedicated to the highest ideals of service to its fellow men at a time when it, more than any other, is expected to prepare the way for peace among nations and a happy life for all. God speed and Good Luck in all your endeavours. C.P. Collins
