PRESIDENT, CLYDE W. MEREDITH As Taylor University endeavors to provide her students with an excellent liberal arts and pre-professional training, she does so in a student-faculty relationship which is vitally Christian, socially wholesome, and physically healthful. Throughout the one hundred and three years of her history, Taylor has stood true to her aims of the Christian interpreta- tion of truth and life. With a consecrated faculty who have dedicated their lives to serve the l.ord in this capacity, men and women have heard the name of Taylor throughout the world. hieading this vital unit of the University is a man whose Christian character and testi- mony have brought light and encouragement to many whose lives have been marred by the stains of doubt and sin ... a man of prayer and sound judgment who has com- manded the respect of students and faculty. We pay tribute to Dr. Clyde W. Meredith, B.D., Th.M., Th.D., president of Taylor Uni- v ' ersity. Inaugurated as President in November, 1946, Dr. Meredith entered into his work with zeal and enthusiasm which has continued to inspire the confidence of many. Through the years that he has served as President, Dr. Meredith has proved to be a well-balanced man in his Intellectual, spiritual, social, and family life. There are few, if any, men who have con- tributed so much of their lives to Taylor Uni- versity and the things for which she stands as has Dr. Burt W. Ayres, now Vice-President, emeritus. 12
