1913 - Celia Cathcart was a junior at Northwestern University when she led a presentation at the YWCA, Young Women's Christian Association, on juniors in college. She gave a talk on "The Development of Her Outlook."
"From the freshman prospect of hills and valleys, beset with the many dangers of examinations and themes, she passed into the sophomore doubt of choosing between scholarship, popularity or politics. By the time she reached her junior year she has a better realization of what she wants to do. Finally she comes to appreciate the fact that, in whatever phase of life she enters, in order that she may attain its fullness, her life must be animated by the greatest of purposes - service for the Master."
December 4, 1913 - The Daily Northwestern, Evanston, Illinois
