Viking_Yearbook_53

DR. STEPHEN E. EPLER Your college yearbook will mean more to you each passing year. It is a record of friendships you have made and a reminder of the pleasant memories that become more important through the years. 1952-53 Portland State students can look back with pride on their achievements. You have changed bricks and stone from a high school building to a thriving, living, growing college. You have made Portland State a better place for the students that come after you and have started traditions that may be followed by future students. Portland State has a tradition of placing students and their welfare first. Faculty and staff are interested in doing their best for you, the students. Some of you will return, others will go into work that will lead to important positions. Your continuing interest in Portland State will help it achieve a high place in higher education in the nation. S. E. Epler
