Dedication The brilliant course ot lectures given by Rev. J. Herman Randall, D.D., before the class in Religious Education during the fall term stands out as one of the most valuable contributions to the curriculum. These are times of storm and stress and readjustment in the world of thought, and every earnest student wishes that he might hear the great fundamentals of religion discussed and restated in harmony with the best thinking of to-day by some scholar familiar with the whole range of the newer science, philosophy, and literature. Fortunately I)r. Randall possesses just the qualifications for this prodigious task. His astonishingly wide reading in philosophy and literature, his sympathetic understanding of varied points of view, and his unusual faculty of lucid statement fit him as few are fitted. Aside from the valuable information conveyed by his lectures the members of the class have appre- ciated the opportunity of becoming acquainted with his rare personality. It is in appreciation of his work and sympathetic interest in the ( lass of 191 7 that this volume is gratefully dedicated to him. o

A Look Forward The value of an educational institution depends on the greatness of the idea which it embodies. A vocational college gives a large share of its time to laboratory work and normal practice, but such a curriculum of activities is designed to mould the mind of the student and to furnish the impressions which will illuminate the work of the class room and give a mental basis for formulating general principles and judgments. The work of a college is in the realm of ideas. “There is no impression without expression,” but the activities of student life should be so supervised and graded as to contribute to the highest growth of personality and they should be so directed as to fit a man for greater service. These aims have been worked out in a remarkable way in the four-year curriculum at Springfield. The first course to be put on a four-year basis was the one for training men for county work. By an arrangement with the Massa- chusetts Agricultural College at Amherst the junior year of this course is taken at that institution. It has been found that this plan makes the men rural minded and fits them for dealing with boys and young men under rural conditions. In carrying out the four-year program it will be necessary next year to add to the faculty in physical education an instructor in physiological chemistry. The new work undertaken the past year by Prof. Stacy B. Betzler in medical gymnastics has proved a great advance. This department has secured addi- tional equipment and has rendered valuable service to a number of persons in removing the after effects of poliomyelitis. Mr. Betzler has also organized the physical training for the Secretarial men in a satisfactory manner. The work in biology taken by all the students given by Prof. Donnell B. Young is proving of great advantage in laying the foundation both for scientific method and for scientific thinking. The same can be said tor Professor Affleck ' s new courses in nature study. I hese are designed especially for workers among boys, but they are taken by all the students at the College and fit the men for outdoor usefulness. Professor Affleck has also enlarged his course in camp craft. In the Secretarial course an important matter is under consideration. The new plan for the four-year course provides for a year ' s training in modern business administration. It is proposed that the winter term ' s work for the Secretarial Juniors be conducted in New York City, covering a period of about three months. 1 he men would be under the supervision of the instructor in business administra-
