CODE OF FAIR PRACTICES 569

new and special contributions it can bring to Miami. Certainly be-
cause it is a predominantly Negro institution, but one which welcomes
qualified students of all races, creeds and nationalities, the Negro
community can take pride in being the host rather than the guest on
this sparkling new campus.

Certainly, the spirit in which this new campus has been founded,
with generous support and tremendous interest provided by both
races, is a cause for pride and an expression of true mutual respect and
responsibility that does all Miami credit. This campus represents an
island and a hope that our fundamental faith in brotherhood is not
sham sentiment, and as such it is making a contribution to Miami,
to Florida, to the United States and its image throughout the world.

It would be presumptuous for me to prescribe in detail what should
be done to unify life with learning on the Florida Memorial campus.
Only the faculty, administration and trustees of this institution, with
responsible student participation, can appraise the situation and
shape the strategies and the tactics. A Nigerian proverb says, "The
owner of the house knows where the roof leaks. "

Seventy-five years ago a few farsighted, public-spirited Christian
leaders founded this college. Although tonight we pay tribute to pres-
ent leaders and a future campus, we also celebrate the continuity of
a tradition expressed by the college's ideals — character, leadership
and service. In the years ahead, the college will continue to draw
inspiration from its founders, its officials and faculty. Yet, it is my
hope that it will supplement this by translating the special courage
of its special patron — Senator Harry Cain — into meaningful pro-
grams and challenging curricula on controversial, contemporary issues.
Above all, I hope that Miami's Florida Memorial College, within as
well as without, shall reflect not only the sparkle of new steel but the
far brighter glow from the spirit of brotherhood, good will and good
faith among men, a spirit that is so much a part of its new campus.
