30 1944 Back in the fall of l94U when this aggressive aggregation of college prospects as- sembled from the four corners of the United States and several foreign countries, things were about normal. Soon, however, the war clouds began to roll and the thunder of un- usual times began to deplete the class ranks. However, there is undoubtedly as rnuch genuine variety per head in this cross section of college youth as one would find in any graduating class in the ccuntry. its members, who will sonie day he among the leading ministers, teachers, missionaries, doc- tors, nurses, and housewives, include: eight Bible school graduates, sir: student pastors, two returned missionaries, and seven student teachers. If there is one dominating purpose which characterizes the class of '44, it is to he soineihing nicre than just another class froni a Christian college. The challenge of the present day demands an aggressive, enthusifrstic, trained, C'liristit5n persontality which is motivated by ncthing less than the dy- ' 4 ' l I ii-Q naniic which comes from a Spirit filled and Spirit directed life.
