THE KNOLL FACULTY Because they have been our teachers— because they have guided our way and led us successfully through our four years of college life, to the faculty we can only say, Thank you. Even to attempt to express our appreciation for what they have given of themselves — the immeasurable influence of their personalities, of their philosophies, of their culture and background — is too difficult a thing to accomplish. To pledge ourselves to carry out the ideals they so dearly cherish; to plan our lives as teachers to effect at least partial realization of the dreams they dream, and have shared with us, can be our only re- sponse to their great gift. We don ' t want to say good-bye, it couldn ' t ever really be good-bye; such friends as we have been are never truly separated. We go away taking you with us, yet leaving behind in you a precious, ever-flowing fountain of love and learning. [13]

BLANCHE A. CHENEY DEAN Class of 1942: You are about to begin your chosen life work at a critical time. The problems of the war and of the future peace require men and women of intelligence, initiative and devotion to the gen- eral welfare. Whenever faced by a difficult task, remember always that your four years here have given you (1) training for efficient citizenship through practice in responsibility and co-operation, (2) character development through the discipline of self-control, courtesy, and obedience to high ideals, (3) loyalty through the knowledge that forever you are a part of this college responsible for its good name, and (4) a finer patriotism whose keynote is service to mankind. Thus equipped, you, the torch bearers of democracy, go forth with brave hearts to do your duty with high purpose and glad spirit! [12] THE KNOLL
