Excerpt from The Etonian, 1934, Vol. 12

The college student, in order to appreciate the fuller meaning of life should con tinne after school days to be a student of the world in which he lives. He should aim to know more of the beauty of the heavens and to call the stars by name; he should look for the glistening gold and the symmetry of the dandelion; he should delve into mother earth and see the past recorded in its rocks; he should note the emergence of civilization from its rude beginnings and continue his interest in human progress; he should follow the modern achievements of men in the political and in the scientific world; he should take cognizance of the thought of our great religious leaders and be at home in the moral progress of society. It is desire of this sort that helps one to see life whole and live at his best. To do less than this is to be only half alive.
