In September of 1876, the year Colorado was admitted to the Union, the Univer- sity of Colorado came into existence. From this early beginning, the University of Colorado has grown into one of i mcr- ica ' s Great Universities. It now comprises twelve schools and Colleges — all set in a campus of surpassing loveliness. From the lone building of 1877, OlANIain , it now numbers over twenty buildings. Last built of these, is the new $350,000 gymnasium, built in the prevailing Rural Italian style of architecture. Just west of this is the new stadium, capable of seating twenty-six thousand spectators. From an enrollment of less than a score of students, the enrollment has increased to more than two thousand while Colorado University ' s star still hangs immeas- urable heights above.

The Class of 192.5, after four years of in- tensive training is now ready to play its part in the game of life. It is the duty of every member of this graduating class to try to repay the parents whose sacrifices have made their education possible; to try to repay the state at whose hands their edu- cation has been received; and to try to repay society as a whole, by good works performed. If the Class of 1915 will constantly keep this ideal before them, and ever strive towards this goal, the crit- ics of higher education will be silenced, and their own success will be assured. J
