Wilmington College - Wilmingtonian Yearbook (Wilmington, OH)

Ms The President 95 Mes sage Looking through the earliest Yearbooks at Wilmington College recently I came upon the edition of 1928. I could not help being impressed with the physical progress which has been made in the intervening years on this campus, in the numbers and variety of buildings, in the beauty of the landscape, and in the general make up and character of the Yearbook itself. Yet in some respects no change has occurred. The Yearbook has always been known as the Wilmingtonian. Thirty-five years from now, when you leaf through this volume, let us hope that the enduring values and traditions of Wilmington College will still be reflected here. Let us hope that you will still know it as a college whose Christian tradition of liberal arts is pre- served, where critical thinking and artistic creativity are fostered, where service to others is encouraged, where self-reliance and self-help are still cultivated and practiced. Admittedly these things are hard to capture in measurable form or pictures, but a college is either mediocre because it honors more superficial values, or excellent because it strives towards goals worthy of lasting pursuit. James M. Read
