FOREWORD The war is over, in name at least, and the world looks forward to a new day. But the war has left in its wake a host of casualties — those who gave their lives, those who lost their reason for living — and those who ask why they must behave contrary to all they believe in. Our propagandists didn ' t give us a positive reason for fighting this war, but perhaps if we find it ourselves, it wUl in the end mean more than the clever phrasing of a professional. We crushed Hitler, Mussolini and Japanese tyranny. Now we must step forward with all our strength and shout from the hilltops that we believe in mankind and its ability and desire to live in haimony. Unless we do this we may never uncover a reason for the sacrifice of World War II. An institution of higher learning has an opportunity which few other organ- izations in the modern world have to enlighten the minds of those lost in the narrowness of their own affairs to their stake in world events. The colleges and universities of today must educate their students, not only as future leaders worth the ti-ust of millions of people, but also as understanding and tolerant human beings with an eye toward their own welfare and that of their neigh- bors. Swarthmore must be prepared to move with the rest, even to lead the rest stand up and fight for what we believe in. To prepare for this task, the admimStrotiQn and faculty have laid plans for extensive improvements in the college and itsocti uties. Already the five course program for freshmen and sophomores has been insTtttited for more comprehensive understanding of all fields of man ' s endeavor, of all riei hotizons. The future will mark the accom- ant of the Twenty-five Year Plan for physicol improvements on campus, kijY tools for building the foundations of an everlasting peace. A new , new science buildings, another women ' s dormitory, aitew,.dming hall Snt commoriWlcQid a women ' s field house will be provided to more Sttidents, studTes and activities, darkness of night-and war is over, the new day is dawning with un- ited possibilities. What bec tnes of it depends on us. With more ade- 1e tools than before, we must prove our lait|i in mankind and . of a weary world on the road to lasting peace.
