C. Pause For Reiection Education is the foundation upon which our world is built; and we in the Carolinas are surrounded by the finest in Liberal arts training, and endowed universities for high er education. But if the world is to remain free, our educational system must extend its boundaries of established custom and provide an even greater majority of tlie masses with an opportunity to participate in some form of ed ucational program. Such ambition is the dream of Charlotte College. While modern man seeks for an easy way, no success is ever forged except in the furnace of suffering and sacrifice. Charlotte College is experiencing its period of growing pains and sacrifice; but through the integrity of its benefactors, the competence of its faculty, and the sincerity of its student body, the College now stands on the threshold of a transitional period that will ultimately lead to the diversified training our community so greatly needs. Those of you who are entering Charlotte College for the first time will find yourselves unusally privileged, for you have established a kinship with the past and a fellowship with the future in one of Charlotte’s most important en deavors. Those of us who are re turning to the College to take up where we left off look forward to another year of work and study, we are sincerely grateful to the faculty and the many benefactors of our college for the opportun ities that they continue to make possible for us. By the fall of 1960, Charlotte College will have its own campus and housing facilities--a great con trast to its humble beginning in rented space. But for its humble begining, it must always remain grateful, realizing that from hum ility greatness is born. lUelcome/ The Collegian extends best wishes to you for a successful college career. There are many oppor tunities for continual personal growth and development and we believe that you will find ample opportunity to exhibit qualities of leadership and high moral stan dards while a student at Charlotte college. It is the objective of the staff ot the Collegian to make the school paper a true instrument of the student opinion. We welcome con tributions from all students. Each article submitted will be carefully read and considered. It is our hope to have as many students as pos sible actually writing for the paper.
