On this day, when we have been summoned by herald trumpets, I am reminded of a favorite Biblical quotation from First Corinthians: "If the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare for battle?" We are called today by a certain trumpet — loud and clear and true. It is much more than a simple musical tone, for it has a special meaning and a special certainty: that Rollins College is an institution that knows who it is, what it is doing, and, above all, where it is going. And we are prepared. The sound of the trumpet is not only a signal for us but also a signal for that world out there."

More immediately, the Rollins student examines what is: the sunset on the lake, the black hole of space, the latest novel, the information about growth in Central Florida, to decide how these forces can be continued or channeled for the good. "A Rollins education prepares a leader who sees a vision of what ought to be, but doesn't forget to smell the flowers, greet a friend, enjoy the world one lives in." Dr. Goddu ended with a challenge to Rollins' new students to complete what is not finished, to rebuild what has fallen down, by focusing attention on a ruined temple at sunset — a place of thinking and of hope.

Fall 1981 Alumni Record 3 Welcome, Class of 1985 Rollins welcomes a very special group of freshmen to the campus this fall. The 409 entering students not only represent an outstanding cross-section of students from across the country, with rich talents in athletics, performance, and leadership in student organizations, but they will be seniors when Rollins begins to celebrate its Centennial in April, 1985. The Class of '85 brings impressive academic credentials to Rollins, with more than 80% having graduated in the top half of their high school classes and nearly 40% in the top fifth. According to Julia Ingraham, Director of Admissions, the Class of'85 includes a total of ten National Merit Finalists or Semi- Finalists, a record number of nationally recognized scholars for a single class at Rollins. "National Dr. Seymour addresses 1981-82 student body at Convocation on the Mills Memorial Library lawn.

Fall 1981 Alumni Record 15 letter to the President said he had "completed the requirements for a degree in 1936." Registrar Tina Beer, confirming Bullock's eligibility for a Rollins diploma, ordered a new one from the calligrapher. It came, some weeks later, and was appropriately signed by current President Seymour, but in the rush of some exchanges of office facilities, the new diploma disappeared. In the old tradition of 'truth is stranger than fiction,' Assistant Registrar Bea Tormey, while searching for another "The old pine tree will survive for a long long time and the flowers will blossom with 'lost' document, unearthed Bullock's vigor." original diploma — printed in Latin This inscription appears in Chinese on a scroll presented by Dr. Harry Gao '31 to the College on and duly signed by the College's then May25, 1981 in President Seymour's office. According to Dr. Gao, "Rollins is the pine tree, andthe president, Hamilton Holt. flowers are her students. "

To my Rollins friends: I consider that the honorary degree of Doctor of Science conferred upon me by Rollins (this year) is not given to me as a person but rather as a symbol of respect and friendship to my university and to the Chinese people. I am, indeed, deeply touched by the warm reception I received at Winter Park. I want to take this opportunity, through the Rollins Alumni Office, to thank President Seymour and the Board of Trustees for making possible the visit of me and my son, Min, to Rollins, and to thank all my friends at the College for the kindness hospitality extended to me. When I arrived on the campus, I was amazed to see the magnificent changes that had taken place since my days. The college is more beautiful than ever. When I walked along the "Walk of Fame" I could easily spot the Confucius stone. At the moment I stepped into Chase Hall, where I stayed, I felt as if I were coming back from my classes in Knowles Hall. At the shore of Lake Virginia I couldn't help recalling the swimming lessons I had from Fleet (Peeples) and the war canoe race I participated in. These pleasant memories brought me back to the old days and made me realize how much I really wished that I might be at Rollins again as a student. Rollins to me always personifies beauty, culture and friendship. After Rollins, I went to Yale for my graduate studies. My Rollins training helped me tremendously in adjusting myself academically and socially at New Haven. After Yale, I went back to China to serve my country. If I succeeded in some way and did something for my own people during my long academic career, I must say that I was influenced by the liberal education of Rollins, the outstanding personality of President Hamilton Holt and the good friendship of fellow students. Rollins did give me things that I sf~2ll always cherish. So when I came back this time to visit the campus after half a century, I felt I was returning home. Now I am thousands of miles away from Winter Park, but my heart keeps close to Rollins. I do hope that an exchange program between Rollins and my university will be materialized and will flourish as the years go by. Personally, I shall be more than happy to see Rollins people on our campus and our people on Rollins' campus. Friendship is based on mutual understanding and mutual understanding depends on contact. My Rollins experience fully confirms this concept. With all my best wishes to the college and to all my friends, old and new, at Rollins. I hope that I do not have to wait another fifty years to visit Rollins again1 Harry Gao (Gao Shang yin) '31 Professor of Virology and Vice President, Wuhan University Member, Chinese Academy of Science
