I believe that this is a practical world and that I can count only on what I earn. Therefore, I believe in work, hard work.
I believe in education, which gives me the knowledge to work wisely and trains my mind and my hands to work skillfully.
I believe in honesty and truthfulness, without which I cannot win the respect and confidence of my fellow men.
I believe in a sound mind, in a sound body and a spirit that is not afraid, and in clean sports that develop these qualities.
I believe in obedience to law because it protects the rights of all.
I believe in the human touch, which cultivates sympathy with my fellow men and mutual helpfulness and brings happiness for all.
I believe in my Country, because it is a land of freedom and because it is my own home, and that I can best serve that country by "doing justly, loving mercy, and walking humbly with my God."
And because Auburn men and women believe in these things, I believe in Auburn and love it.
-George Petrie (1945)

In the spirit of the SEC Education Initiative which provides resources to educate and prepare children for life, we are collecting school supplies for R.O.A.R. of Washington at this event.
R.O.A.R.’s mission is to to ease the burdens of the homeless and disadvantaged while they seek education and employment. One way they do this is by providing children who are a member of a low income or homeless family with school supplies.
So, please bring new school supplies and/or backpacks full of school supplies to donate to R.O.A.R.
