"To Irby J. Good, our president, whose keen foresight, careful management, and untiring devoion to the interests of Christian education have won for our college a position of high rank in the educational world; and who is enlisting the spiritual and financial resources of our constituency for the realization of Greater Indiana Central."

How worshipful of the president. The Christian education stuff is weird, and gives the president a righteous mission he probably doesn't deserve; only when the dedication gets to the financial marshalling does it approach what a college president does today.

If those buildings on the horizon are intended to be Indianapolis, this might be the artist's attempt to connect the aristocratic past with (then) modern America. The artwork is so idyllic, yet stately at the same time.
