October 4, 1974 SWORD Page 4 Editorial I was seated in the Sword office, struggling to come up with some pro-found articles of general interest into which I could delve and expound, bringing the light of wisdom and understanding to all readers of this, my own personal editorial column. the editor, let there be no mistake about that.)

Well, actually it was just a sunflower seed a professor tossed in through the open door on his way to a fourth hour class. But it had the same effect. It struck in me the idea of what I would devote this space to. And that is, to welcome you into the very new, yet very old, and still ever changing institution of the SWORD. It is, hopefully, new in it's design and format. Old in that it has a tradition, along with certain expectations that go along with that tradition. And still changing in that I have not yet perfected the art of putting together a college paper. I figure it'll take at least until the third issue to do that. Until that time, though, whenever it may finally come, I will be open and actually need your suggestions, criticisms, encouragements, and help. My policies as editor center around building up and recognizing Concordia for the great place it is to live and grow in God's love. It will never be to merely criticize or tear down. And if I ever get those policies mixed up, I will leave it to the Concordia community to give me a kick where it will do the most good. And now I will end this column for this issue, and leave you to the reading of the remainder of this, the first issue of this year's SWORD.
