States of America, and which it stands, liberty and justice for all.
John carlos rounsaville - a great patriot from a family of great patriots. One committed both in spirit and in action to the preservation of the loftiest ideals of our American civilization. John, you who were a student in this college from September, 1937, to Iuly, 1939, your name is written indelibly on the scroll of eternity.
M. F. Russell - a boy whose love of country must not be confused with blind, youthful enthusiasm. He entered the armed forces fully aware of his likely fate but determined to serve whatever the cost. M. F., you who were a student in the college during the academic year of 1941-42, it is by men like you, men who envision the supreme sacrifice but never quaver, that the flag of liberty will be carried to the mountain peak of lasting victory.
Steve henry gates - the first graduate of our institution to make the supreme sacrifice. A boy with a burning zeal to aid his fellow man through the practice of medicine; one who worked for what he got, and got what he worked for. Steve, you who were a student in this college from Septem ber, 1937, to June, 1941, as surely as you left a record for friendliness and diligence on the campus and in the com munity, you have left a record as an unexcelled patriot in the annals of American life.
