Rightly, wisely and justly have you chosen the theme for the 1955 Knoll. In the past four years you have ex- perienced some of the trials and discomforts as well as some of the joys and triumphs of progress. You have shared in the realization of part of what is envisioned for our college. The sharing has meant adaption on your part to unavoidable confusion and change. You have always responded with patience, versatility and ingenuity in making these necessary adjustments. We have watched you grow in stature and in wisdom as you, too, have moved forward. Next fall you will assume your place among those who guard our heritage and transmit our culture. You will help prepare young minds and personalities which can adjust to this rapidly changing scientific and technological age. Help the children you teach to grow as you have grown and to react to change as you have reacted here. In addition to all these responsibilities you will have a share in the progress of our democracy . In the young people you will teach is the hope for progress of our great country. Work with them as you have worked with us. Bring to them the fine examples of character you have shown here. They will be better citizens for having known you. hncuoJ d % A ' coup corJ A measure of progress demands an understanding of the aims and objectives of a group. When first you came to the College, your aim was primarily to do what you could toward becoming an elementary or music educator. As you sought to achieve this goal, you recognized that many academic and social advancements were necessary to become a worthy member of the teaching profession. Now that you are ap- proaching graduation, you have realized the ultimate ob- jective. But progress, personally, academically, and pro- fessionally are not easily and completely attained.

That your potential is abundant, you have already proved, but let us hope that you have learned the lesson of Chaucer ' s Clerk of Oxenford, who humbly realized this truth ....

t me. m STATE TEACHERS COLLEGE AT LOWELL And the child grew and waxed strong, full of wisdom; and the grace of God was in him. Education is a discipline, an intellectual discipline which makes men at once servants of God, and masters of Themselves. True educational progress, therefore, consists not merely of Learning, but also of Thought and Reason exercised upon Knowledge. As New- man defined it, the real aim of education is the clear, accurate vision and comprehension of all things, as far as the finite mind can embrace them, each in its place, and with its own characteristics upon it. Progress consists not in preserving the mean, but in aiming at a high, an aim never fully achieved but never fully abandoned. We have all rejoiced to see how you have grown and waxed strong in the past four years. May the grace of God continue with you as you grow in the future, wherever you go from this place.
