Those with engineering training may be inclined to think that only those with business and governmental train¬ ing are qualified to guide the destiny of this and future generations. Nothing could be farther removed from the truth than such thinking as this, because you have been trained to ana¬ lyze all problems in a logical manner and you have been taught to deal with facts, not assumptions. You members of the class of 1948 are well qualified to assume your rightful place in world affairs and are urged to contribute your time, talents, and ability toward making this a peaceful world in which to live. We wish for the members of the graduating class of 1948 all the success that it is possible to attain. J. GLENN RADCLIFFE

Qul $dwiini ' it iatio-n and acnttn On July 2 5, 1 883, a group of prominent citizens of Angola, desirous of planting the foundation for an institution of higher learning, met and organized Tri-State College. Through the sixty-five years of its expansion, our school has grown from a normal school with a humble enrollment of forty to its present size of seventeen hundred students. The buildings, which then numbered two, have grown in size to twelve, and the faculty now embraces fifty-three men and women expertly trained in their respective fields. To those of the past whose untiring efforts and supreme sacrifices guided and molded our school in its embryo stage, we owe a deep-rooted and sincere thanks; to those of the present by whose skill and ingenuity our school will survive and continue to grow, we owe our never weaken¬ ing cooperation and support.
