Hector, an international farmer with interests extending into Canada, attended Concordia Col-lege before entering the armed forces. He re-ceived a degree from Iowa State University in 1945.

Knutson cited the enrollment, placement and gift income figures as examples of the kind of confidence which people have placed in Concordia. Enrollment is at an all-time high, placement of graduates is much higher than the statewide average, and gifts to the college are not declining but are advancing well. President Knutson noted in his remarks the college depends on the continued support of con-gregations and people throughout this region for enrollment, gift income and jobs for graduates. "We are a college of the church," he said, "and it is our strong intention to maintain that rela-tionship as a vital and vibrant one." The Concordia Corporation involves American Lutheran Church congregations in northern Min-nesota, North Dakota and Montana east of the continental divide. These congregations, through their conference organizations, send delegates to the annual corporate meeting for the election of regents. Reports on the operation of the college are presented at the meeting.
