Upon entering the door of knowledge a guiding hand in the form of the faculty leads us to the main ring of our circus--educatin. lt is in this ring that lives are moulded and careers begun. Under the able supervision of the teachers, students are educated to become intelligent citizens. For some, this education is the basis of college preparation while for others it is preparation for a vocation, not requiring a col- lege education. For all it is the most important part of our life, determining the successfulness of our fu- tures. lt depends upon the student as to how much knowledge he obtains from this ring, as it is up to him to plan for his future. By making the most of the opportunity to be taught and by participating in activities offered to him, a student can go out into the world, not feeling inferior, but knowing that he has obtained. the ability to make it a better place in which to live.
