PRESIDENT
With the closing of my twentyninth
year as president of HardinSimmons
University, I feel a justifiable
pride as I survey the
achievements of this student body
of 1937-1938. I bring you sincere
greetings, and my heartfelt good
wishes for each one of you now,
and on through the years ahead
of you. It is your constructive cooperation
that has helped to make
this year, just ending, one of the
most outstanding in all our eventful
history, and I thank you for
this fine cooperative and loyal
spirit toward your institution.
There is a definite challenge to
young men and women today to
prepare themselves for leadership
that is founded on the highest
ideals and standards to be found
in educational institutions of our
nation. Hardin-Simmons University
has sought, through the almost
half century of service to
West Texas and the world, to
maintain an inflexible standard of
integrity in personal conduct and
in character building, to the end
that her students should go out
into various fields of endeavor,
prepared in body, mind, and heart
to render the world a service that
cannot but be a blessing. With
emphasis first on the great and
fundamental verities of Christ's
teachings, and second only to this,
on scholarship of the highest order,
Hardin - Simmons University
appeals to her exes around the
JEFFERSON DAVIS SANDEFER, LL. D. world to keep the faith once forall delivered to the saints.
