V nderful nights spent on .1 cloud of softly scudding music i - College Education, as any college student will agree, is more than reading through a stack of text books. It is the opportunity to meet great minds, their ideas, and their philosophies. It is the chance to discuss the arts with the artists, such as Dr. Ernst von Dohn- anyi, famous Hungarian composer-pianist. It is the chance to listen to Branch Rickey, baseball magnate, discuss baseball: it is the opportunity to listen to Professor Clinton MacKinnon discuss poetry: it is the first- hand opportunity to begin adult life. All of the extra-curricular activities, the varsity sports and the intramural sports, the parades and the dances, are a part of college life a t Ohio University, almost as much so as the long hours of studying and the equally long hours spent in classrooms listening to lecturers. Organisations cover almost every phase of possible student activity, adding a last but equally im- portant means for education for the in- terested student. And nights with the books.

Jiv t, i in 1 El t View of the campus showing Memorial Auditorium, Ellis Hall, and Cutler Hall. T HE Reverend Cutler was graduated from Yale, and he was recog- nized not only as an outstanding minister, but also as a highly skillfull botanist. Historians generally agree that he is largely responsible for the third article of Thomas Jefferson ' s Ordi- nance of 1787, which states that religion, morality, and knowledge being necessary to good government and to the happiness of man- kind, schools and the means of education shall be forever encouraged. This was a new approach to education. It as- sumed that the state is responsible for the edu- cation of its members for the general good, a totally foreign concept to Eighteenth Century educational philosophy. Thus it was that Ohio University, first known as American University and then as American Western University, became the first land grant college in the United States, and the first uni- versity in the Northwest Territory.
