002_R.jpg Page Two Letter To Students As you are now about to leave the camrus for the Christ­ mas hohdays, I wish you much happiness and extend to you my best wishes as you join your families and friends at home. Almost t hree month have passed since Mrs. Wilburn and I came to the campus. The clays which have passed have been f ' lled with pleasant happenmg of which becoming ac­ quainted with you has •been a large measure of all the good things that have come to us. Your friendliness and coopera­ tive spirit have been highli ghts of the passing weeks. As I look fonvard to the coming months of this academic year, I hope t hat your educational experiences at Glenville State will be more reward'ng then they are now. In my judg­ ment, your experiences seem to be most rewarding at present. I am certain, however, t hat they can be more so. Continuing and, if necessary, increasing your efforts toward successfully r eaching your academic and vocational goals can be more r ewarding as each day comes and gee . As your support through attendance at, and active participation in, College­ sponsored activities you will gain personal and social develop­ ment which will depend upon how mu: h you avail yourselves of the e>q:er iences as the Choir, the Lyceum pro11; rams, the athletic teams, particularly the basketball team this season. and the for thcoming dramatic productions. Now, I have some words of caution. Do as much as you possibly can to make certain that you wil l have a safe jour­ ney to your homes. During the vacation, keep foremost in your m'nd in all that you do the safety of others as well as yourselves. Best wishes for the Christmas season. Cordially yours, D.
