Show College Report THE YEAR 1920-21 has seen the growth and development of a bigger Weber College, and although the members have been few, favorable results have rewarded earnest efforts. As a class we do not intend to boast of our several achievements. However, we have helped to build up the foundation of Ogden's College, which is the future of our present school. We have striven to uphold the old standards and have worked for improvement in all ways. But, having nothing but high school atmosphere to breathe, the College has not found real spirit; it cannot find real spirit until "Col- lege" is written in the heart of each student. Of course, there has been the high school rivalry and contests, but as a community, Ogden needs a good college; a home college, a product of the labors of Utah people. And, in making Weber a college, we make Ogden a better town and Utah a better State, and after all, it is the Nation that counts. If there were a college in Ogden more people would be afforded the opportunity of higher education; they would become better citizens and larger individuals. Thus, with an open field on which to work, Weber should become a real college. The one way a college finds growth is in the hearty support of faculty and students, they alone are able to work up enthusiasm and respect. The thing to do is "boost," everywhere, at all times and keep the college spirit high, for out of college spirit comes more college spirit. Weber has prospered as a high school, indeed, it has succeeded, but a more brilliant future awaits at the end of the road. Therefore, not only the class of this year must help, but all the classes of years to come. We extend to them our heartiest wishes for the development of Weber College and urge them to take up col- lege work at Weber. "It is for us, the living to be dedicated . . ." Let us, then, dedicate ourselves to a successful Weber Normal College! |
