TO THE SENIORS You are living in one of the most unusual periods in the history

of man. In no period in history have there been such rapid and sudden changes. These changes come in all fields of learning and living. We must be a lert to the new methods and techniques of living, learning, and doing·. \!\Te must study and work in order to keep up with the new developments. \ !\Te must use our minds to their greatest abilities. Your future and the country's future depend on your ability to work, think, and understand. Will you be one of those whose minds are allowed to deteriorate from lack of use?

Every person in the United States, whether he be white or black, Christian or Jew, must be educated to the best of his mental ability if our nation is to survive as a Democracy in this atomic age.

I believe that education is America's hope. The young people of today will be the builders of tomorrow and the future. There should be no more exciting or challenging prospect than the one which faces you as you prepare yourself to take on the task of educating and carrying on the obligations and traditions of this great Democracy.

This is a great country. Never be ashamed of it. Remember that this country is like a chain, only as strong as its weakest link. May we ahvays be proud of our part in passing it on to the future, shining and unblemished.

William E. Henry

We Honor Them History has always come up with the right man at the right

time. There was George \i\Tashington who got our government off to a iirm start. Lincoln's was the steady hand during the strife between the North and South. In Negro education and life we have had our right person to help us at the right time. That is why we as future teachers of America, with sincere gratitude and admiration, pay tribute to those educators who have helped fur­ther the Negro in his quest for education and the better life. Therefore, it is fitting that we pay tribute to Dr. Oliver Wendell Holmes and Mrs. Lucretia T. Kennard, pioneers in Negro educa­tion, whose portraits will now hang in lobbies of the residence halls named for them.

Defense Scholarship In our democratic way of life education is very important. Evi­

dence of thi can be seen in the ational Defense Education Act of 1958. \'\ ithin this Act is found The ational Defense Student Loan Program. Its purpose is to provide low-interest loans to students to pursue their studies in higher education. The loan aids those students who quality for aid. Good scholastic standing is one of the main prerequisites.

Student counci l elections, con­trary to the beliefs of some people, are not merely popular­ity contests. Rather, they are a serious and thought-provoking assignment for every student en­rolled . .. to complete.

Citizens of a community are obligated to meet their respon­sibilities to the community.

\!\Then we are ca lled upon to meet our obligat ions, too many times, we retaliate with some de­fense mechanism or show no sense of concern whatsoever.

\!\Then we have come this far in our educational pursuits, we shou ld realize that there are certain responsibilities, obliga­tions, rules and policies that we must adhere to in order that we may become good cit izens in our community. "Wolverine Observer": Morris Brown College, At lanta, Georgia

Personal liberty is the para­mount essentia l to human dig­nity and human happiness. Fundamentally, happiness can not exist where human beings gain their pleasures from the miseries and exploitat ions of others.
