The Dream That Became a Reality Wii ith the advice to not teach even the alphabet or the multipKcation tables without the Spirit of God, Karl G. Maeser, Brigham Young Academy ' s first principal, assum- ed his duties in 1875 over 29 pupils. Nine years later, a fire totally destroyed the school, but classes stubbornly contin- ued in a warehouse until the new academy building was com- pleted. Years passed, enrollment increased, and in 1903 the Academy became a University.

NEW BUILDINGS AND MORE TO COME The new Ernest L. Wilkinson Center (above) is the social hub of the university. Facilities in- clude bowling lanes, dining rooms, bookstore, post office, and more. The Franklin S. Har- ris Fine Arts Center (below left) is the largest academic building on campus. Honoring- the visionary man who foresaw through con- struction delays the many more structures to come, the Maeser Memorial Building was the first edifice on what is now known as upper campus. Beginning with this $110,- 000 building, upper campus has expanded to its present size of some 100 permanent structures. The University to- day presents a campus orderly covered with some of the finest facilities to be of fered anywhere in the country. As the destiny of a great university comes closer and closer to becoming a reality, one cannot help but be awed by such buildings as the mammoth fine arts center, the all-steel football stadium, or the seven million dollar student cen- ter. The clean-cut studentbody has grown to almost 18,000 and graduates are vigorously pursued by employers who honor their reputation for hard work and integrity. Not satisfied with the complimentary rating the school now pos- sesses, administrative officials continue to plan for im- provement and growth, always seeking out faculty and students who truly exemplify the ideology of the Church. continued During the past year, the new football stadium (below) at- tracted the largest sporting au- diences in Utah history. Here fans flock to the stadium to see the Homecoming football game. 11 T
