I T IS my understanding that the president’s message should convey best wishes to the graduating classes as well as a few thoughts which will cause fellow- students to pause, look back at the year which has gone, and look ahead to the careers which no doubt many have already chosen. This year, moreover, we are paying tribute to Dr. W. C. Graham who is retiring after seventeen years as principal of our college. In September, 1954, our approximately 250 Col¬ legiate members arrived at United College mostly as strangers, with varying backgrounds and ambitions, but with one common bond—the completion of a high school education in a college which has an old estab¬ lished reputation among the educational institutions of Canada. United College probably did not represent a great deal to most of us at that time; it was to be merely a means to an end. Now, in June, 1955, it has taken on for us a new meaning; it has become a bond of common interest. It has given us an opportunity of sharing not only a valuable experience in learning, but also of making new and lasting friendships. Both of these experiences lyill, I am sure, always give us a sense of indebtedness to the College. Our academic work has been influenced by the stimulating guidance we have had from our teachers, and our friendships enriched by the tolerance and understanding we have received from them throughout the year. But colleges are made up of people whose per¬ sonalities and abilities leave their lasting effects and provide the foundations on which others may continue to build. Dr. Graham’s work and influence illustrates in a most outstanding way such a basis for the con¬ tinued growth and development of United College. This year marks the close of a chapter in the great role that our principal, Dr. Graham, has played in the history of United College. He has been a strong supporter of the Collegiate Department as an integral part of United College, wit h its three divisions con¬ sisting of Collegiate, Arts and Science, and Theology, all closely united under one administrative head. The acclaim given Dr. Graham indicates the respect and admiration that the student body as a whole has for him because of devoted interest in the welfare of every department of the College. He is a great scholar, a great theologian and, above all, a great humanitarian. With Dr. Graham goes our very best wishes and sincere thanks for the part he has played in bringing our college to the forefront among Canadian educa¬ tional bodies. This year has had a very special meaning for me, having returned to school after several years away from studying. Although this has been a handicap in some ways, it has proved an advantage in others. (Continued on page 31) Page Nine
