-it le INTELLECT What we need most urgently is to recongnize the enormous power and the crucial importance ofthe intellectual professions. A culture cannot exist vvith- out a constant stream of ideas and the alert, inde- pendent minds who originate them, it cannot exist without a philosophy of life, without those who for- mulate it and express it. A country without intellec- tuals is like a body without a head. - Ayn Rand - Dr. Abram Konrad, Academic Dean HONORS COMMITTEE: G. Toews, Fl. Harms, lVlr. J. Ewert, Dr, A, Konrad, Dr. C.

WHO'S WHO IN AMERICAN COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIESQ Dale Fast, Lois Peters, Galen Toews, Dave Klaassen, Judy Franz, Don Ratzlaff. Dr Roger Pankratz A school is a small community unto itself, and without intellectuals it, like a country, is like a body without a head. These intellectuals are at two levels - the professor and the student. Although two levels exist, there must be a constant sharing of ideas between the levels to keep the head of this body alive. To build an excellence in students, there must first be an excellence in faculty. This excellence in the members is denoted by constant searching, questioning, and understanding. Through their search, the members guide students in their reach for excellence. This excellence is characterized by scholarship, leadership, service, and usefulness. 27
