THE PRESIDENT GEORGE NORLIN What is the University of Colorado for; what is any university for? Let me answer that question by recalling to you a relay race in ancient Athens — a race run by night, in which each runner carried a torch to the runner ahead. If the runners ran too slow, they lost the race. If they ran too fast and extinguished the torch, they defeated themselves. The object was to carry the torch with due speed, but undimmed, to the goal. That, in a figure, is the object of a university. Mr. H. G. Wells said some years ago that history is a race between catastrophe and education. He might have said it a little more concretely that history is a doubtful race between barbarism and civilization, and that it is the business of education to keep civilization alive, to transmit to each gener- ation the significant achievements of past generations, to swing us into step with the forward strides of mankind, so that we, like the runners in the ancient race, grasping the torch from the runner behind, may speed it on to the runner ahead, not dimmed, but burning with a brighter light. DR. GEORGE NORLIN
