This time (college years) in our lives is a time for build ing uip. It is a time for hard work and self - discipline. Here at Brevard CoUege we can build with knowledge and undersrtand- ing a life tiiait will serve a pur pose to tihe world and to our selves. Upon this foundation of learning we will base many of our judgments and aims in life. We wiM, as have the refaim- ing alumni, go on to bigger thmgs. But here and now is the time to build a solid foun dation for our lives. Man appears to be constantly going back to the old hates and wars that have proved fruitless in Piast history. This is caused by man’s »wo failure to do his best in every situation. We have our own free v/ill to do as we please. If we fail to use that win ■« bui’d a solid foundation of knowledge and understand ing, we will only be adding to the h?tes instead of help ing man leave them behind. Mext weekend alumni will come back to exam'ne the foun- drtinn ;h”y have made at Bre vard Colege. They will see the rhysical progre'^s that the col- 'ege has made in nr'w bui'dings .'■j'd landscaping.
