Dlll-ll. VUICES UF ADMINISTRATIUN 1.2 7 BEFORE WASHINGTON BECAME A STATE the College of Puget Sound embarked upon an adventure of excellence in personalized, Christian education. The heritage which it has given to those splendid leaders who have been its students is one to be cherished always. To each incoming freshman class is given the challenge of the epitome of learning, friendship, achievement and adventure: to each class pursuing its course of study is extended the warm fellowship with leading men and women of the faculty, who are dedicated to the high purpose of training the leaders of tomorrow: to each graduating class it is with a genuine tug of the heart we send you forth to take a place of responsibility for which you have been trained. The College of Puget Sound holds to each of its collegiate family the adventure of in- vesting life in great ideals, splendid principles and eternal friendships. Your Alma Mater is proud of you, and with the tender watchfulness of one who holds you in high esteem, follows your development with genuine regard. ' You stand on the threshold of one of the greatest ages the world has ever known, and your opportunity is as great as your vision. 2. Zlzeccdeaz' AS MEMBERS OF THE ASSOCIATED STUDENTS of the College of Puget Sound. we represent the oldest continued form of student government of any college in the North- West. This government has been able to succeed as a governing body mainly by the enthus- iasm, interest, and cooperation of its members, and participation by everyone in all its activi- ties. As students at the College of Puget Sound, we have built this government ourselves. At the same time, we have also built an organization which enables us to get the fullest bene- fits from the time we spend here. Student relations with the faculty are probably better developed at CPS than most col- leges of similar size and purpose can boast. This does not come from any determination to make these relations good. Instead, it comes from a common interest-in studies, in recreation and in the school. Our student body now is about half the size of those of the last years before the war. We have had to make changes and modifications, but there has been no change in the spirit and cooperative enthusiasm which has been shown by everyone. ' It is a common feeling that the students who get the most out of college life are those who avail themselves of every opportunity. lt takes more than ideas to keep going. It takes people to work out, and execute the ideas. This year we have been perhaps more fortunate than some schools, in seeming to have just the l'right people for all the various jobs to be done. It is with a feeling of pride in the College and in the student body that I look back on the year l944-45. E

UR NUMBERS WERE LARGE, but now they are small. We have felt the full effect of wartime upon our class and activity. But the spirit with which we entered still burns brightly in our lives. Now, as We come to the end of our college en- deavor. we look back with growing fondness on those traditions and customs we have known. They have played such a great part in molding our lives. and they have hewn out in our hearts a special place for our Alma Mater. With sadness we leave our beloved college, but within our hearts we sincerely hope that the contribu- . tions we have made and the spirit we have shown will live on to be a constant memory of the Class of '45. Frank Price. President.
