W e come with our individual anticipations and expectations; we come with a thirst and eager- ness for knowledge. With eager anticipation we become involved with the tools of the col- lege furnished for our development. Buildings, the physical institutions for learning; books, the explanatory and exploratory aspects; professors, those who explain and challenge us; fellow students, who are using the same tools and who are seeking the same truths. The finished product of the education process, however, must be found in the ideas which we derive from our years spent in learningflideas, which are a heritage, a responsibility, and the ultimate tool of all life.

Show moreRodger Jordahl Religion and Philosophy Changes were seen in the religion and philosophy departments this year. With the religion requirements changed, and a general strengthening of the courses which were offered, the religion department has done a fine job in helping students realize the central importance of religion in life. Theological and ethical questions involve the very core of our lives, and the encouragement of growth in these aspects of life enables us to prepare ourselves to live in the world. The daily chapel program, under the direction of new Chaplain Gabrielson, daily brings us to realize the place our religion plays in our lives. The studies in philosophy clarify and enhance the meaning of the Christian religion in our lives. Mr. J ohnsrud is a new instructor in this field this year.

These and more significant ques- tions can he answered in history and government classes. The older we get the more we realize the application of history for our modern times. Dry facts of history are not pertinent to our lives, but the interpretation and active use of these facts by our able teachers lends an adequate historical perspective to the events of our lives. Among the history staff is Mr. Gisselquist, who is teaching only part time this year and working for his Ph.D. at the University of Minnesota. Dr. Carl Chrislock Nels horde Hr. Bernhardt Kleven.
