Surely the OPEN DOOR theme is brought into clear focus as we remember our faculty and the part they played in molding our lives. We are grateful for their Christian example and the many times they encouraged us when our problems seemed insuperable.

PIERSON CURTIS Senior Master English Department Princeton University, A .B. It is doubtful that any member of any faculty has im- parted more real and lasting good to a school, its students, and its faculty as Stony Brook's beloved P. C. So outstand- ing has been his contribution over the years that criticism of him is seldom voiced. There are few men more inter- ested and gifted in the teaching profession, and the stu- dents in his English classes are the first to acclaim such a statement. JAMES BARTON Director of Admissions Science Department Franklin and Marshall College, B.S. University of Pittsburgh, M.S. It is virtually impossible to become a successful member of the Stony Brook School community without possessing versatility.
