CII. SCIL LOR ktRK Chancellor Kerr For twenty-five years President of Oregon State college, since 1932 Chancellor of the Oregon State System of Higher Education, Dr. William Jasper Kerr is not only the most honored and beloved friend of the state college, but the most constructive figure in Oregon higher education. Chancellor Kerr portrays part of his great personality in the following message: “'The Bonneville Dam, with the vast potentialities for serving the Pacific northwest, is the product of many types of specialization. The correlation of all these elements, involving the contributions of the engineer, the geologist, the chemist, the economist, the business analyst and sociologist, is the obligation of the leaders of this far-reaching project on the Columbia. In the same way, the synthesis of varied types of knowl- edge is the function of modern higher education. Whether concentrated on one campus or distributed to several centers, a state system of higher education, to be efficient, must coordinate diverse but often complementary activities. Through team work of these activities, the effectiveness of their separate contributions is multiplied, and all the resources of higher education arc thus mobilized into a unified service to the state.” [is
