As a memorial to Mrs. Helen Sheffield, Associate Professor of Chemistry and Head of the Boarding Department (retired), the Bulldog repeats its dedica- tory message which appeared in the 1955 yearbook. DEDICATION IN HONOR OF MRS. HELEN RAVEN SHEFFIELD ”? “True worth is in being, not seeming .. . Since 1922 when you were appointed instructor at State Col- lege, you have worked persistently to make it a better school. You have worked quietly; you have worked unselfishly. You are the daughter of a former president, Dr. Robert Shaw Wilkinson, and you have followed his example and put the school first and yourself last. At the present time you are an associate professor of chemistry; you assist your mother in operating the Boarding Department; you are an adviser; you are a friend. Throughout your years of service you have endeared your- self to the hearts of the students of State College, and for the generous gifts of yourself and your possessions, the entire student body—all eleven hundred of us—dedicates the 1955 BULLDOG to you with affection and appreciation. May it serve as a reminder that your altruism is not unnoticed.
