OUTSTANDING in the personal history of each one of us there towers one teacher, or if we were lucky two or three or four, who literally changed our lives. For the great teacher does much more than broaden or deepen knowledge; his influence extends far beyond the subject of any particular course. He opens new vistas, creates new interests, establishes high standards, teaches his students intellectual discipline, elevates their aspirations." The teacher's high calling, as here defined by President Rothwell of Mills College, has been met with dedication and rich fulfillment over many years by the nine Dartmouth professors who retire this month and whose portraits appear on these pages.
