Richard P. Richter The student has a sense of being the center of attention, and student-teacher ties are a serious matter and are seen as important for advancement. The second topic is that of climate. Ursinus College is well-known for its friendly climate, and this is a reputation that has been maintained for years. Another part of this climate is the development of compulsive workers that is. students become adept in time-management. Using the phrase. If you're not going forward, you’re going backward. President Richter aims to move Ursinus toward a more visible place of leadership among liberal arts colleges. He believes leadership should also be a top priority for Ursinus students. “They should be more aware of their future role as leaders of the world coming on.” America, he feels, has become so consumed with specialization that most people seem to have fogotton the whole. Ursinus students at twenty years of age. he says, must think of themselves as those who will be running the world thirty years from now and they should be able to deal with the whole thing. They should round out their education as much as possible while at Ursinus and prepare to use all of their talents. 1986 is President Richter's tenth anniversary as President of Ursinus College. In these ten years, he has advocated many changes, but he feels he has made two significant accomplishments. First, he has reaffirmed the faculty as the central focus of the college through an improvement in tangible resources for the faculty. Second, he has successfully sustained a helping and caring relationship among faculty and students. He feels the rigorous pursuit of liberal learning takes place best within a community atmosphere such as ours. Congratulations. President Richter, on your continuing success: this 1986 Ruby is dedicated to you! 5
