Although he made no bid for popularity, often showing a New England reserve and even aloofness, there are many who came to know him and to love him as a man. Those best fitted to speak from knowledge and from the point of view of the interests of the college are the trustees. Few higher tributes could be given than that which they have expressed, and that tribute expresses also the feeling of others whose knowledge and disinterested temper qualify them for just judgment. This is their statement: The trustees desire to communicate to President Carter and to place on record their profound and grateful appreciation of the ability, faithfulness, high aims and whole- hearted devotion with which, for twenty years, in the midst of many diffi- culties, he has spent himself in the service of our beloved alma mater.

He has been a skilful and inspiring teacher, and a wise and conscientious leader, seeking always the truest interests and zealous for all the noblest traditions and loftiest ideals of the college. p A.
