Cyd it President Mervin Gordon Neale IN RETROSPECT, the year that has just passed has been a challenge to the people of 4 this country. In many ways it has been a year of gloom and fear, because of the real or fancied imminence of economic disaster. In the midst of this world-wide loss of optimism, the students of the University of Idaho have set an example of faith in the future and have carried on their activities with more than usual zest. I wish to commend this evidence of beliet in the future. The real test of men and women is not the manner in which they conduct themselves in times of pros- perity and ease, but the manner in which they carry on in the face of adversity. Any individual might fear to make a prophecy about the future, but the students who have been at the University of Idaho during the school year 1931-1932 have, by their actions, made a collective prophecy. This prophecy is to the effect that in 5] the future the world will have greater need for high ability, character and expert service than it has ever had; and that the opportunities which will open up for this a generation of university men and women will be greater than those of the past. ; (21) M. G. NEALE, President. - i) sete eeses SCSeee ees eeeeesteeeeeeseeseeeseeetese tee SSSCSesegeseeee eee
