President s Message The Class of 1949 has made a very important place for itself in the history of our college and I am happy to extend congratulations and my very best wishes to you as you approach the close of your career at Lowell Teachers College. As teachers, you will share the responsibilities of the home and the church in training the citizens of tomorrow. May you always remain loyal in your work to the traditions and achievements of our great predecessors, the men and women who throughout the years have in- spired their pupils with a deep and abiding belief in God, and in the necessity for morality, high thinking and service to the community, the state and the nation. May success and happiness be yours in the years to come. James Dugan, President
