There must be a lesson here somewhere for us and I think it is this—that The freedom for which this institution stands can be achieved only through Cxod has given us a world unfinished so that we might share in the joys and sat true education.

The end of true education is an uplifted society, as expressed by the poet God placed in our hands the personalities of thinking, growing, feeling young Edwin Markham in a little poem entitled “Man-Making”: people but h ft these personalities undeveloped. Ours is the task of shaping these Why build these cities glorious into self-respecting, contributing men and women. If Man unbuilded goes? This is our challenge and our opportunity and these buildings we dedicate In vain we build the world, unless will be effective in carrying on this greatest of all construction projects—that of The Builder also grows. helping build the world’s future though building the lives and characters of those Finally, speaking to the third of (ioethe’s principles, a building should be to whom that future belongs. We proudly accept this challenge, recognize our “successfully executed.” We see before us the living proof that these structures opportunity and rededicate ourselves to its fulfillment. which we here dedicate have been successfully nurtured through all the many stages of the building program, from the original dream to the acceptance of the keys, which symbolizes the completion of the goal. This University has become greater in the eyes of the world as a result of these three structures being added to the campus, because the world is prone to judge an institution by physical standards. We who are close to higher edura- tion know that a imiversity is more than the sum of its buildings, just as an in dividual is more than the sum of his arms and legs and other members of his body. Langston University is no greater now than it was before the expansion of its campus, but it has become more useful to the society, because its capacity to influence others has been expanded. We take great pride in these accomplishments, not for the selfish reason ^ t we will now have more spacious and beautiful surroundings for our own enjoy ment, but for the fact that when we are gone these buildings will serve other generations to come. The real pleasure we take from this dedication is in knowing that we have extended our influence beyond ourselves. Elton Trueblood, the Quaker theologian and teacher, gave us the words to express our thoughts when he wrote, A man has made at least a start on discovering the meaning of human life when he plants shade trees under which he knows full well he will never sit. The shade of these buildings will extend beyond the horizons of our ^ y and will become an instrument for tho advancement of knowledge, the promotion of culture, and the assurance of intellectual integrity and social dignity. These structures thus will s e rv e as implements of education and social change, helping to usher in a new era—one of peace and mutual trust among men of good will. It is to this end that we dedicate thrae new buildings at Langston Brown Hall University. NOVEMBER, 1964 LANGSTON UNIVERSITY GAZETTE PAGE FIVE
