w H — ' f? ' I I I mf W Bit r i K 1 w ROBERT L. STEARNS, President of the University of Colorado, first knew the University as his own Alma Mater, from which he received his B.A. degree in 1914. His LL.B. he obtained at Colum- bia University in 1916. In 1917, he enlisted in the U. S. army, and rose to the rank of captain in four months. Later he practiced law in Denver, and was head of the Colorado Bar Association, and the Denver Bar Association for four years. As a result of a campaign he led to uncover defects in the system of selecting judges, reforms were inaugurated throughout the nation. In 1935, he became Dean of the C. U. Law School, and in 1939 was honored with the presi- dency of the University.
