The building was erected in 1909, and contains lecture and class rooms, a large and properly arranged court room for the trial of cases, offices for the professors, and a library consisting of 15,337 bound olumes. The late Moses Hallet, Judge of the Federal Court, was one of the earh ' Deans of the School of Law, as was also the Hon. John Campbell, now a Justice of the Supreme Court of Colorado.

Hadley, ex-Go ernor of Missouri, and Chancellor of Washington University; also the late Cabin K. Reed, Edwin Van Cise, and Robert S. Morrison.

Collep;e of Arts and Sciences k ' I ' liAN HkI.I.EMn OINCK the great fimriidii ni the Cnloradnan is m cn.ililf students to live again iheir undergratiuate days, it should l)e something like a mirror. Hut in order to he a mirror for the College of Arts and Sciences, it would have to he a veritahle magic glass, reflecting not merei - I lie isil)Ie and tangihle, hut also the unseen and ini|)onder.ii)le. It would need to reflect ahout eighteen hundred lumian-hearted students, each dirterent from the other, a well-e(|ui|)ped Faculty with more th.ui one hundred and lift - memi)ers, and the different goodly huiidings wherein we gather to learn or to teach, and a ihous.md other things. Hut my readers know ihai lie (ind the niirror- ahle things are the all-essential undetinahle things ih.ii lie deep in the hearts of students and faculty. And when old graduates turn the.se pages in after years, I predict witii confidence iii.it ihe will find the mirrored image of the concrete college world haunted hy countless ghosts that ma - ultimately i)rove more real than huiidings, more real even th.m their fellow students. 3-A Pagf 21 Y
