What I ' d really like to know Mr. Lerner is how ' s the fishing in South Africa. the FACULTY 1 MiMfMWtfMI Wofford ' s own draft board! Why are we reluctant to leave after years of teaching at Wofford? Beyond the pragmatic answers are others more important. One is that there has long existed here a tradition of freedom to become the kind of teacher our will and pride and manhood com- bine to make us. Moreover, over the years he develops a com- pound of pride in Wofford ' s past, confidence in her present, hope for her future, and an interest in students, whose fortunes he follows with parental pride and affection. Finally, we discover the Wofford Ethos, which transcends the brick and mortar of Old Main. This Ethos is A brighter flame within the soul That makes men seek God ' s goal. The something more than naked truth To give to searching youth, A beacon bright, a banner high. The soul ' s new-found ally. —A Professor. 20
