Through the various functions and facilities, of the-university, each student is given endless opportunities to discover truth. In his endeavor Q to make this discovery, each individual gains 3 understanding of himself and his wo'rld,,This it understanding enables the student to become an intelligent member of society. In ' The 1963 Rolzmdfz emphasizes the ' opportunities offered at SMU through which a studentlmay obtain a liberal education. Each of us must understand his purpose at SMU, and in accordance with this understanding decide which of the opportunities-scholastic, social, religious, and cultural--offered on this campus are most important. To do good we must first know goodg to serve beauty we must first know beauty, to speak the truth we must first know the truth. We must know these things ourselves, be able to recognize them by ourselves, be able to describe, explain, and communicate them by ourselves, and wish to doiso, when no one is present to prompt us or bargain with us. Such knowledge is the purpose of a liberal education. -Griswold Free
