DEAN'S MESSAGE TO ADMINISTRATION Today we are passing through a period of mental and spiritual chaos comparab le to that of the Renai ssa nce . Just when th e world was settling dawn to a dream of peace and Utopian prosperity something s ta rtling and cyclonic has swept it completely off balance. Social values, and ideals that had seemed as fixed as Gibraltar , have been shaken to their foundations, a nd thousands are facing the future with blank questioning . Yet the picture is not dark, for chaos is only the material out of which new cosmic order will emerge. As teachers and admini strators we are called upon to do ou r part to interpret and direct the course of things, out of confusion formulating those principles of abiding value that mus t govern , stabilize, and idealize the changing order . We are fortunate in having a new generation of students more deeply earnest as a whole than those of the ' 20's, and it will be our pleasure to respond with frankness and enthusiasm to the ir serious desire for training and for an unders tanding o f the world in which they live.
