Mrs. Lucy H. Robertson
8th President, 1902-1913

"A splendid leader she proved to be under adverse circumstances, with qualities and characteristics which fitted her so well to fulfill the various roles she was called upon to assume; teacher, lady principal, president, president emeritus and teacher of Bible and religious education." "Who of us would not be glad to have our daughters influenced by such a woman? Can we not say that independent of any hope of advantage we would choose her for a superior, trust her as a friend and love her as a mother?"
