Excerpt from The Lanthorn, 1909, Vol. 12Susquehanna's students have attained eminence in many walks of life. Students from her halls may be found in the highest ranks of the theological profession, filling the most in¿uential and useful o¿ices in the church. Promi nemce in the legal and the medical profession has been won by Susquehanna's men. Some of her students are accomplishing excellent work in the teaching profession, bringing honor and credit to themselves and to the institution. The missionary ideal of the school has brought forth good results. The heathen of far-off Africa have heard the gospel from the lips of Susquehanna students. Business has claimed the lives of many, and the common walks of life are gracedby her sons. A few of her graduates are giving a large part of their time to athletics, in which they are doing commendable work. It is to the Alumni that the institution owes, in large measure, one of the finest equipped gymnasiums in central Pennsylvania.A word must be said of the graduates of the minor departments of the insti tution. The oldest of these departments dates back no earlier than 1894. The schools of Expression and Art are not as largely attended as the other depart ments, as they were more recently established, and because there is less demand for education of that kind. Yet some of the graduates of other departments owe much of their success to knowledge gained in courses offered by these. From the Conservatory of Music, the Academy and the School of Business, many graduates go out every year. These men and women are needed in the world as truly as are those of the more advanced departments, and because of their great numbers, they form an important constituent of those who represent Susquehanna in the world, and naturally they exercise a great in¿uence.Many of the graduates of the Conservatory are already acquiring distinction in their chosen life's work. Others are making homes and communities brighter and more cheerful because of their talents developed here. Graduates of the Academy keep good standing in the college classes of this university and of other institutions. Students from the Business Department are doing successful work in this country, in Cuba and in Mexico.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
