To the Members of the Stetson Family in 1959 During our Diamond Jubilee Convocation, I was reminded of the story of an American girl who went to India as an exchange student. While there, she hoped she would have an opportunity to meet some of their distinguished women — writers, artists, and educators. One, whom she was especially anxious to meet, had been a leader in bringing about social progress in India. Remembering the pictures she had seen of Gandhi, the American visitor expected this famous lady to be rather old and withered. But when she saw her, she was astonished by her lovely fea- tures, her grace, and dignity, and poise. Why, exclaimed the girl, you are beautiful! The lady gave her an amused smile and answered gently, Well, I ought to be, I ' m seventy-five. There are certain qualities which only age can bring to an institution, as well as to a person. Stetson THE PRESIDENT J. OLLIE EDMUNDS is now seventy-five. She, too, has achieved a becom- ing grace and dignity and poise — which took seventy-five years to develop. I congratulate you who have been fortunate enough to be on the campus during your Alma Mater ' s seventy-fifth birthday year. It is a year you will recall with special satisfaction. I predict you will be talking about it twenty-five years from now when some of you will be returning for your col- lege ' s one hundredth birthday celebration. And what extraordinary changes you may expect to see by then! You ' ll be writing to your friends afterward, Back in 1959, when I was there, I used to think the university was attractive, but you ought to see Stetson uoiv. She ' s beautiful! We are counting on each of you to help her get that way! T. OLLIE EDMUNDS President
