Because of the gospel, Ricks College [BYU-Idaho] is truly a great school; be certain that you taste of its greatness and thus profit from the extra, the plus, the extraordinary that is here for you. There are only two lasting bequests the college can give you. One of these is roots, the other wings. Keep your feet on the ground and your eyes on the stars.
President John L. Clarke, 1968
