i B1W Gold REGENTS OF THE UNIVERSITY THE government of the University of California is entrusted to a corporation styled the Regents of the University of California, composed of the Governor, the Lieutenant ' Governor, the Speaker of the Assembly, the State Superintendent of Public Instruction, the President of the State Agricultural Society, the President of the Mechanics ' Institute of San Francisco, the President of the Alumni Associa- tion, and the President of the University, as members ex officio, and sixteen other regents appointed by the Governor and approved by the Senate. To this corporation the State has committed the administration of the University, including management of the finances, care of the property, appointment of teachers, and determination of the internal organization in all particulars not fixed by law. The Academic Senate, composed of the President, Deans, Directors, Recorder, Librarian, and all pro- fessors and instructors of more than two years ' service, supervises the courses of instruction and conditions of graduation and admission, subject to the approval of the Board of Regents. Standing committees of the Board of Regents are appointed each year, each committee under the direc- tion of a chairman who has the supervision of a particular phase of administration, such as Engineering, Finance, or Endowments.

3r)f film? CoTd l(gfe FROM THE PRESIDENT BLUE AND GOLD appears for each class at an interesting stage in the class history. No other year can be so full of engagements as the final year; no other year so happy as the Senior year. It comes but once in each lifetime. How shall it be divided as to study, campus activity, social life, and reflection upon the meaning of it all? The year now rushing to a close has been one of quiet accomplishment throughout the University. Real study and reflection, real teaching and research, demand tranquillity of environment during many hours of the day and many days of the week, and there has been commendable co-operation in working toward and maintaining this condition. In this connection, however, the President regrets that progress in behalf of the dormitories has been slow. The athletic events of this year in Berkeley have given rare pleasure to many tens of thousands of Californians. It is safe to say that the major games in the Memorial Stadium have never been equaled earlier or elsewhere in attractiveness of surroundings, nor surpassed in their manly sportsmanlike qualities. Then, too, the accompaniments of scholarship have been right. The Class of 25 has completed its responsibilities for student life and activity. The world has always paid special honor to the successful general and the successful admiral; but the Good Book says, He that ruleth his spirit is greater than he that taketh a city. The consequences of ruling one ' s self, with help, in case of need, from the government officials of his own choosing, are especially fine. I am confidently expecting the BLUE AND GOLD of this year to be a treasured volume to which the members of the Class of ' 25 will frequently refer through the decades ahead. . r
