IPRIESIDENT ' S MESSAGE Greek culture has contributed so much to the areas of learning found in the American college of arts and sciences that it is eminently fitting that the year- book of our college be a symbol of Greek influence. The staff deserves com- mendation for their ingenuity in making this selection. For twenty-five centuries the elements of Greek literature, art, music, science, dramatics, sports and principles of gov- ernment have been woven into Western civilization. From Homer ' s Iliad to contemporary writers; from Phidias ' statue of Athena to modern sculpture; from the sports of old Athens, the birth- place of the Olympics, to the track and field of the 20th century universities; from Plato ' s Republic to Goals for America ; and from the Golden Age of Pericles to the democracy of our day, we observe unmistakable similarities. Lest we forget the identity of our rich heritage; the impact of cultural influ- ences of ancestor nations; and the ties of college experiences and friendships, let us read often — Lest We Forget. Best wishes to every reader. Sincerely, Warren F. Jones, President s-5 6 •
