ADMINISTEATION ■i eS ' S Many people are involved in keeping the university functioning as it should. Everyone from President Stearns and th« Board of Regents to the students themselves has some- thing to contribute to the welfare of the university. The Deans, and the heads of the various departments of the university cooperate in helping and guiding the students so that they will be able to make the most of their educations. A.S.U.C. and A.W.S. are bodies by which the students govern themselves. They vote for the men and women they wish to lead them; and, by voting, determine the way in which they wish to be led.

m 1876-1886 The year 1876 marks the first chapter in the history of the university, but there is a prologue to this first cha pter. In 1861 provision was made for a state university. Due to the Civil War the Board of Regents that was chosen never had an opportunity to meet, and the school continued to exist in name only until 1876, although the corner stone for Old Main was laid in 1875. Bustling, two-year old Boulder, under the magic influence of gold, had risen from a tent village at the mouth of Boulder Canyon in 1858 to a thriving village of over two thousand hardy pioneers by 1861. Not until 1877 did the university open — with a faculty of two. An insight into the conditions may be hod from this statement: A naked, ill constructed building (Old Main] situated in a barren waste and removed from any sidewalk by nearly a mile of mud was all that marked the site of a future university . . . unanchored window frames which blew in with every wind storm, endangering the lives of students and faculty. This first decade sow the establishment of the arts and sciences school, medical school, and the installation of the first two presidents.
