President Forrest R. Polk To every senior President Forrest R. Polk is primarily the man who dispenses the diploma, that very necessary contribution made to the finished product of OSTC, the graduate. Actually, of course, Mr. Polk, president since 1931, fills a much more important and demanding position at OSTC than as the mere giver of diplomas. It is probably for this reason that most students, though familiar wih Mr. Polk's residence on campus as a well known landmark, see little of him except in transit to or from his office. The diversity of affairs that falls to the lot of a college president keeps him hard at work throughout the day. This does not mean, however, that the president is out of touch with school affairs. In many ways that often go unpublicized, he shows his appreciation of the efforts of students in behalf of the college. These may take the form of a personal letter, or a few sympathetic words in passing that show his profound interest in student affairs. Probably the President's favorite diversion is provided by the wide range of reading he covers during the year. Particularly informative and interesting to him are history and biography all of which tend to further point up the world situation, a subject of great concern to him. Mr. Polk feels that there is no one panacea for the terrific problems facing us all. yet he has a deeply rooted faith in education as a means of enlightenment in a positive effort to fit young people as responsible citizens.
