DIVERSE, DYNAMIC FRESHMEN 1 GRAPHICALLY SPEAKING (A Look at the Second Century Campaign) 5 Lester Harris (Center) is flanked by President Eugene S.

t is a pleasure to comment upon three special developments that have I occurred at the beginning of the new academic year. First, the Chairman of the Board of Trustees, R. Chandler Myers, and I join in announcing the election to the Board of Oscar J. Jimenez. Mr. Jimenez is a Partner in charge of the Privately Owned Business Depart- ment in the Los Angeles office of Ernst & Whinney. A 1961 graduate of the college, as is his wife, Gail (Stevens) Jimenez, Oscar has been active in alumni affairs and has had a distinguished career in business and ac- counting. His election further strengthens an already impressive Board. Second, on October 3 we dedicated the Lester L. Harris Speech and Hearing Clinic. This event honored Dr. Harris' thirty-three years of self- less service to the college. At the dedicatory ceremony Dr. Edward Klein, Director of the Speech and Hearing Clinic, commented that " . . . the department and the clinic are here today because of the unique combina- tion of personal qualities that Les brought to his tenure at Whittier." It was a great satisfaction to me to participate in a program honoring a Whit- Cover tier faculty member who helped to shape this fine old college.

Isn't the competition for top high school students as fierce among colleges as it has ever been?

Roy Newsom, one of the Reunion Committee Members, said so well: "I feel that our class can show its commitment to its alma mater and pay back the College for all that it has done for us by contributing to a project earmarked for scholar- They surpassed their goal of $50,000.
