PROS NEW VICE-CHANCELLOR Sewanee is proud of her fine traditions and her rich heritage. The history of the University of the South, its founding, its struggle to survive, the sacrifices of devoted men and women, the deeds of Sewanee ' s sons, and the University ' s contribution to the South and the nation, is a thrilling story. Traditions are a challenge, however, to continued and higher achievement, never a reason for complacency. Institutions and individuals must live not in their heritage but out of their heritage into the future. For a heritage, rightly understood, is the foundation and inspiration for greater accomplish- ment. Sewanee is determined, therefore, to live out of her heritage into and for the future and for an always deeper and nobler realization of her ideals. Dr. Alexander Guerry, J ' ice-Chancellor Dr. Alexander Suerry, the new Vice-Chancellor, in his office.
