r T T T T e V . T T 1- , 1 p .. K •% %k HH H lIh President ' s Message President W. J. Kerr ' ' I HE land-grant colleges, of which Oregon State - • is one, had their beginnings before the scien- tific age had fairly dawned. They pioneered the new epoch in education. By observation and experi- ment they blazed the wav for others to follow. In their laboratories, science, stimulated by the needs of industry, took on a new and profound signifi- cance. Step by step they fought their way upward through inertia and prejudice to the strategic posi- tion they occupy today. Oregon State has been a pioneer in this held of scientific education; it was first in the Pacific northwest to introduce the studv of agriculture, engineering, home economics, com- merce and allied subjects. That it arrived in due time, like others of the land-grant colleges, at a confident epoch of symmetrical growth and expan- sion, is cause for profound gratitude to the pioneers who shaped its early career. They did a great work in a spirit of noble endeavor. The super-structure of the past twenty years has been erected on the broad foundation that they laid. Now it is for a new generation, taking advantage of the unparalleled opportunities of the scientific age, to press forward to new conquests in the service of the common- wealth and humanity. W. J. Kerr. { O
