Lindquist sees university as bridge of education Tennis player, writer, teacher, scholar, and ad- ministrator, arejust a few ofthe adjectives that could be used in describing Dr. Emory Lindquist, president of Wichita State University. Dr. Lind- quist has been at Wichita State for 10 years, three of which he has served as president. A former Rhodes Scholar at Oxford University, Dr. Lindquist is a native Kansan, born in the Swed- ish town of Lindsborg in 1908. He graduated from high school in 1926 and attended Bethany College where he received his B.A. He then attended Ox- ford University where he earned his MA., graduat- ing a Phi Beta Kappa and Rhodes Scholar in 1937. Following his graduation from Oxford, Dr. Lindquist began work on his Ph. D. which he re- ceived in 1941 from the University ofColorado. Returning to Lindsborg, Dr. Lindquist taught at Bethany College where he became president a dec- ade later. Resigning this position in 1953, he came to Wichita State where he was bestowed the title of university professor. Believing that the greatest single investment that can be made is in people, Dr. Lind- quist is deeply concerned with the quality of educa- tion as well as the quantity. He is interested in keeping education up-to-date with contemporary times, and is determined to see that the University changes, grows, and adjusts to the advances of the world around it. Education is the bridge in the gap of human relationsf, Dr. Lindquist feels that the University must be this bridge. An Easily recognizable landmark of the WSU campus is the Presidents House, built in 1938 and facing Hillside on 17th.
