The Purpose Of Montreat College Montreat is a four year liberal arts College striving to attain the highest in Christian character and cultural develop ment. It was founded as a part of the religious and educational program of the Mountain Retreat Association, which is a declaration of trust held for the Presbyterian Church in the United States. Prom the beginning the Bible has been in its curriculum, and the knowledge of its truths and duties has been a requirement for graduation. It always has given prominence to religion. Montreat believes that one must be familiar with the great truths of the Bible; that life must be understood in its right relationship to Jesus Christ before one can be considered properly educated; that a society dominated by Christian principles is worthy of claiming only the best loyalties of strong men and women; and that Christianity is the only force that will inspire and strengthen us to accomplish the highest in education and to achieve the best in life. Montreat would have every student coming under its influence to develop alert and disciplined minds, and to grow in the likeness of Him who is “the way, the truth and the life’’. Montreat would announce three distinctive major policies; first, positive Christian emphasis and program; second, high scholarship standards; third, low expense rates to students. The only officers and teachers appointed are to be those who give positive evidence that they have a sincere Christian faith expressed in Christ-like living and are actively related to some evangelical Church. The trustees and officers of Montreat realize that the strength of its Christian training and influence is determined most by the belief, character, purposes, ability, and activity of its faculty and other staff members. Hence, its faculty must be composed of men and women who are concerned with the moral and spiritual, as well as the intellectual, develop ment of the students. J. R. McGregor, President FROM A TEACHER: Dear Alumnae: Any Montreat student can visualize the-early spring—the bubbling, happy little streams; the trees ready to burst forth in their new green dress; the early flowers clothing; the now greening grass with fresh bright colors; and the same mountains rising majestically, outlining the clear blue of the spring sky. The same beauty you remember during your first year at Montreat, and possibly the picture you carried with you w'hen you left Montreat. It’s still the same! But Montreat is now getting the "New Look”—The first floor of Gaither now really looks like an administration building.—Even Room 3, the one Ye Board favored, is now the College Office. You know, where they take in all the money. The poor room certainly went from one extreme to the other. Ye Board was always Broke! And you should see the new building W’hich is replacing the Alba. It’s So BIG—^Almost large enough to accommodate the entire U. N. Conferences, I bet. Montreat has changed little for me during the conversion from student to teacher. I always thought things looked differently from another, but it’s still the same! The hardest thing, as you can well imagine is being called “MISS”! And when you still feel like a Mon treat girl—well, you guess. This year at commencement we hope as many of the alumnae as possible will be here. Not only will it be nice from the angle of acquaintance, but we as alumanae should be proud of Montreat and what it has meant to us. Through such a meeting as this, we can take steps to make Montreat even more cherished for the future Montreat girl. My best wish to each of you Montreaters. It would be wonderful to know you all.
