Cjfor ord ep vp Keeping always in mind the traditions of our State and of our University, remembering the hardy spirit of our fore- fathers, the pioneers who hewed a thriving commonwealth from the wilderness and who founded this college wherein their youth might receive education, and looking to those pioneers for courage and purpose to make our own lives more worth- while, the 1927 Ariel has been built. We have tried throughout these pages to preserve a con- stant unity of spirit maintained with a theme of tradition — the interesting tale of progress — how Vermont had its origin and how it has come up through the years; and then, in the presentation of the University as it lives today, to link up the present with the past and to disclose the structure which has grown upon that firm foundation.
