Thank you to all of our members and affiliates who contribute critical information regarding our Political Prisoners/Prisoners of War as well as updates on activities, events, and actions. Moving forward, we stand in fierce determination and solidarity to free our remaining Political Prisoners and Prisoners of War still languishing behind the dungeon walls. Much work has been done by Jericho and other organizations, and there is still much more work to do. With 20 years behind us and much work ahead, Jericho is growing and is taking on new projects and missions. Our shared vision is that we will reach a time in this country (and others) wherein there will be no more Political Prisoners/Prisoners of War. We envision the day when they all will walk free and into their family’s arms-who have been waiting for decades. We hope you join us in making this a reality. “We who believe in freedom cannot rest." Ella Baker 2 Jericho Movement's Current Work and Progress Jericho actively maintains direct connections with our Political Prisoners by visiting or writing them monthly.

ROLLINS ALUMNI RECORD No. 1 JANUARY, 1959 VOL. XXXVI FINANCING FOR THE FUTURE The Importance of College Development Programs A development program that wages a continuous campaign for financial support is today an inescapable ne- cessity for any college or university which aims to remain or become strong. Funds adequate to its mainte- nance and growth must be procured from all potential sources of support. This fact is as cogent for publicly con- trolled institutions as for the privately controlled, which, except for tuition income, are almost wholly gift sup- ported. Henry Adams a half century ago wrote, "The whole problem of educa- tion is one of its cost in money." This is at least the chief problem today. Various solutions which have been tried during more than three centuries of higher education in the United States all add up to the constant search — using the most systematic methods — for adequate support by the responsible officers and friends of each institution.
