 MISS ELLEN M. CLARK

‘Dedication........... M ,ORE so today than ever before, young men and women value high ideals, devotion to principles, kindness and sympathy. As these traits become more rare in other parts of the world, we are more attracted to them, realizing how precious these intangibles are. When we look around for someone to whom we may dedicate this yearbook, it is natural our search should be for one with the characteristics so greatly needed, but so obviously lacking in this uncertain world of 1948. We need not look far. There is within SSC. we believe, an incorporation of those high ideals, devotion to principles, kindness and sympathy—an ever-present inspiration to all who are privileged to know her. She is head of the department of history, active in college committee work, speaker in the field of current history and world affairs. Evening Telegram representative at the UN in San Francisco, dean of women for 26 years—one of whom it has been said. She is in everything, heart deep.”—Therefore, to our own Miss Ellen M. Clark we dedicate this 1948 Gitche Gurnee.

 HE 1947-1948 school year at Superior State College has ended, but freshmen and seniors alike will long remember the wealth of inspiration and guidance they secured from their friends on the faculty. In matters of scholarship, in all kinds of achievement, a willing hand and a sympathetic interest were extended to all. These bonds of friendship brought about greater understanding and endeavor and strengthened the ties of knowledge. The increased enrollment, the broader curriculum, and the rising school spirit were reflections of this student-faculty cooperation. Yes. classes are over for a while. In this past year, we students came to appreciate the daily evidence of wise supervision and encouragement of the faculty members. Their outstanding services and inspiring leadership have opened our minds to nobler and broader horizons. As in the past, we leave with sincere remembrance of their faithful support.
