INTRODUCTION The 1962 Yonahian has been brought into being with the expectancy that in future years it will serve to recreate for us this period of our lives which has been filled with the seemingly innumerable trial, triumph and joys of collegiate life.
It is our hope that with the fulfilling of this purpose,
this Yonahian will become and remain throughout the years one of our most treasured possession.

To you, Miss Griggs, we give our thanks for all that you have meant to each of us, and we dedicate the memories of this year as portrayed in the 1962 YO AHIA .
EDITOR'S NOTE This is your 1962 YO AHI . On the pages of this book are found familiar scenes and faces around Piedmont College. The feelings and attitudes which identify Piedmont evolve from these same pages. The taff, with these factors as a basis for the construction of this yearbook, has striven to produce a constant reminder of the activities and spirit which have been a part of Piedmont College in 1961-1962. The greatest benefit that can be derived from a yearbook is not in the pleasure it brings now, but in the memories it will serve to evoke in future years. This annual is not devoted to the past, but rather to today. The students make it what it is, the lessons learned outside of classes, and the changing age in which they find themselves are of utmost importance. If this thought is accomplished, the annual will have served its purpose. I would like to express my sincere appreciation for the hard work and cooperation afforded me by the taff. Estella eanng, Editor

THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE "Be j'e perfect e-en as rour Father In heaven ,s perfect," is one of the thrilling statements which has come to us down the ages from the {aster teacher of all times. Mr simple reflection on this eternal truth comes out of thirteen rears of welcomIng freshmen at Piedmont College, giving diplomas to graduating seniors. working with professors and trustees, calling on alumni, and counselling With men and women across the nation who belie-'e In our program of church related higher education enough to share generously of their tithes and benevolences with us. ince all of us are acquainted personally with the frailty of human flesh, the thought of achieving perfection seems discouraging at times. Yet the ultimate objective of our liberal arts program is the pursuit of excellence. We are unashamed of our God gi"en urge to reach toward the sublime, and to press forward with all possible speed toward the enrichment of life. We are never content with less than our best effort. "the old college try." Moreover, a freshman's best performance of a Beethoven sonata will not satisfy his sense of art or craftsmanship in his sophomore year, nor will his second rear accomplishments satisfy him in his junior year. au r quest for excellence is pursued teadily at our best. and in spurts at other times. It is tremendously inspiring to think about all the people who desire to give their best to help roung people to do their best. Parents. high school teacher. and religious leadecs at home are ever eager to co-operate with professors. chaplain. and the dean at college in opening the splendors of education for every student pilgrim on the highway of pursuing the more excellent way. It is equally thrilling to remember freshmen who never were ashamed of the simple religious faith they brought to college from home, and yet they "grew in wisdom. stature. and in favor with God and man" as they studied for four years in biology. sociology. business. and religion. It is gratifying to remember that Piedmont ollege in a distinct w'ay continues to help j'oung people help themselves with scholarship and work-aid programs. E"ery qualified person continues to have their God-given heritage of self-development honored and accepted in our midst. There are many areas in our world where this level of "perfection" has not been attained.
Your alma mater is understandably proud of her many sons and daughters who have made good in life long pursuits of excellence. Businessmen. elementary-secondary and college teachers, doctor. lawyers, ministers, missionaries, legislators in Washington and Atlanta. housewives. and all of our former students and graduates who pres> on daily toward the Abundant Life, fulfill our quest of excellence. By the grace of the Eternal One who is the Giver of every good and perfect gift, our des"e at college is to inspire and implement the quest of being perfect, "even as our Father in heaven ,s perfect." James E. Walter. President
