President and Mrs. Evan H. Bergwall On October 17, Evan H. Bergwall was inaugurated as 16th President of Taylor University. Since their appearance on our campus, President and Mrs. Bergwall have come to mean much to the Taylor family. They, together, hove shown us that through working as a unit, we can have a school in which we can be proud and one in which Christ, truly, has the preeminence. The students have found the president to be a friend, one who is willing to counsel and advise wherever there is a need. His Spirit-filled life has been and will continue to be an example to all. seven

DEDICATION To those who have not only contributed to Taylof while students on her campus, but who have also taken the spirit of Taylor University with them to all parts of this earth, we dedicate this book. Because we, who are still students at Taylor, are praying fox you, and you, who ore Alumni, are praying for Taylor there is set up a bond of unity and strength which cannot help but make our school an effective- ly Christian witness throughout the world. We hope that as you glance at these pages you might see the spirit of Taylor, personified by the figure of Tuey, and might again recognize the true spirit of the campus, that whether studying, playing, liv- ing together, or worshipping, we must in all things glorify God.
