OFFER OF THE STATE COLLEGE OF WASHINGTON The State College of Washington has m uch to offer to the men and women, particularly to the youth of the State. Founded, as it is, to promote the “liberal and practical education of the in¬ dustrial classes” the institution is far more, however, than a school of industrial labor, affording mere mechanical efficiency. In the field of higher learning, it stands as a broad-gauge college —distinctive in purpose and achievement. Modern, progressive, thorough,—steeped in the dual tradition of individual and of social betterment, it is increasing its usefulness and service to the state and to the nation with every passing year. While not an industrial school in the narrow sense, the pri¬ mary purpose of Washington State College is to give to the world industrially efficient people. The college appreciates the honor and the dignity of labor. Its students are trained to deliver their quota of work. That work means more, however, than service as mere tools. It means movement and initiative in affairs com¬ plex and ever changing. It means not only suitability to the exactitudes of industry but leadership in industrial development. A bequest of the college is the opening of greater fields of service —the finding of new and bigger things,—the training with which to execute them. But the aims of Washington State do not stop here. It is not content that its graduates be but doers of big things. It would have them lead big lives. With this end in view, its ministrations are not for technical efficiency alone but for cul¬ ture as well. The state college offers the culture that makes for clean living, broad tolerant thinking, honest capable citizenship. It provides the means and the setting for the cultivation of life’s finer, fuller ways. It affords a field alike for each son and daugh¬ ter of the commonwealth. The spirit of genuine democracy facili¬ tates its ends. This, then, is the offer of the State College of Washington. Opportunity to the spirit rather than to the caste; training for the work of life; education for efficiency, for leadership in indus¬ try, for solid enlightened citizenship. The world will always welcome the finished product of such an institution. Page 8
