As administrative head of the College, the President shoulders much respon- sibility in the task of education and since September, 1949, Dr. Will Orr has borne this load. The College catalog states; The College subscribes to the belief that vocational, social, intellectual, and spiritual values are integrated most effectively within the Christian tradition. Westminster of today bears deeply the mark of Dr. Orr ' s striving in this pin-pose. The campus stands as an intransient monument to this dedication and the productiveness of its ever-changing population can be re- garded as the effected result. The Manse, the President ' s home on the hill, overlooks the CoUege in the valley.

OLD MAIN MEMORIAL, the program center of Westminster since 1929, through its tradition links to- day ' s campus with the past decades. ' ithin its walls are the chapel where Vesper services are held each Sunday, the Little Theatre which is the scene of plays and recitals throughout the year, twenty classrooms that become all too familiar to most students, the language laboratory, and faculty and administrative offices. Ema- nating from the bulletin boards are reports of rides wanted, books for sale, graduate and financial oppor- timities. and schedules of coming events. Above the Senior Terrace, Old Main Tower stands as the symbol of Westminster, its chimes signalling each passing quar- ter hour of the onrush of campus activity. Wallace Memorial Chapel
