"As this record is brought to a close it may be said in all sincerity that Wentworth's best days lie ahead. The working relationship between the Board of Trustees and the Wentworth Military Scientific and Educational Company is highly favorable to success and the administration under Colonels Sellers and Wikoff possessed of ample ability and experience to insure it. Her intrinsic worth, high standing with the United States Government, popularity with the public, and loyalty of her widely scattered alumni and friends will underwrite her future."
