STEPS TO GR EATN ESS The greater challenge of university life is not for the student, but is a challenge for the college itself. If the student body does not present challenge of growth and activity for the school, then the school has no real purpose for existing. To be sure, the student must always climb higher on the steps of the university; there always must be one more height to reach. But it is the student ' s task to challenge the construction of that additional step. Students must demand that extra effort, and in doing so grow stronger hand-in-hand with both their classmates and the school. It is harder to climb than to stroll along level road or dawdle down hill. But every man who wants to rise above the level of the beast desires ascent, not descent. Difficulties are stepping-stones leading to the top. Therefore, do not dodge them, do not run away from them. — B. C. Forbes The sweetest and most inoffensive path of life leads through the avenues of science and learning; and whoever can either remove any obstruction in this way, or open up any new prospect, ought, so far, to be esteemed a benefactor to mankind. — David Hume
