DEADICATION Contrary to custom, the Elms is not de- dicated this year to one person thought deserving of that honor. The scope of this is larger than one thought, one person, great- er than one day or one year, and we dedicate this Elms to the Seventy-fifth Anniversary of the college, thus honoring those who since l87l have contributed to its growth. A few are yet alive today who remember the first Normal School established in l87l, and its first graduating class of twenty-two, in 1873. Still more are familiar with the building we recognize as Grover Cleveland High School, built in l9l3 around the site of the old structure, so that classes were able to continue while the other construction was being completed. Approximately twen- ty years later came our present buildings whose halls echo the tread of our feet daily. We are among the fortunate few-we know of the past progress, and will live to see a future of even greater advancement. Our present campus will be increased by an additional 35 acres. The new buildings proposed, as well as those approved and ready for construction as- sure us that our college will surpass itself in coming years. This Anniversary, then stands as a monument to the past and is a prediction of new achievement w. H. PORTERFIELD 7
