PRESIDENTS MESSAGE The college yearbook is an interesting publication. It means a dilferent thing to everyone associated with the college or university. To the members of the editorial staff and acl- visers, the yearbook brings memories of problems, difficulties, successes, failures, and long hours used in the development of the book. Experiences have been rich and challenging. To the members of the student body and faculty, the yearbook brings together a selected collection from life and learning on the college campus. It affords an opportunity for each indi- vidual to relive many phases of college life in a refiective mood. Attending college today is no longer considered a luxury en- joyed by only the privileged. Both progress and survival are related to the quality and quantity of the college product. It is stimulating and encouraging to be a part of il college that is alive and growing. Quality of leadership, cooperative achievement, and learning are indicative of the vigor and strength found in the college. It is my hope that all who may have opportunities to peruse this book will discover evidences of growth. YV. K. Payne President
