"Every community has its roots in the past. Its people live in the present and look to the future, but their way of life and their patterns of thought are conditoned by their heritage. A widespread understanding of that heritage is essential in order that progress may be planned wisely."

-Willis F. Dunbar, historian, Western Michigan University.
