DEDICATIO N TO Dr. John G. Lind, whose determi- ned and sustaining faith in Weber has marked him her friend, whose sin- cere devotion to her in charted and un- charted seas has done much to estab- lish her individuality, before whose sym- pathetic support of our Alma Mater we, as faculty and students, kneel, the Staff dedicates this 1927 Acorn, knowing that he is the Viking.

Working with the theme of individuality and self-reliance, the 1927 Acorn Staff has waived Weber’s annual precedent through concrete motive—interpretation— by referring on every page to the Viking ship, the most uni- que possession of a daringly self-reliant people. Not to please nor to impress but to acknow- ledge those whose race is our own, from whom Weber received her mortgaged beginning, un- der whom she has been endowed a college— separate in purpose, separate in ideal and sep- arate in organization from all other Utah col- leges—has been the purpose for our class.
