1922 KENTUCKIAN, RODMAN WILEY The Alumni Association The Alumni Association, founded in 1 889, is one of the oldest organizations of its kind in the country. Its policy from the beginning has been to work for the well-being of our Alma Mater. 1 he recent growth in membership and m strength during the last year has been unusual and has given much hope to the university officials in their plans for a larger and greater institution. The membership has increased four hundred per cent in a year and a half, and the alumni clubs from two to twenty-seven. This year eleven former students were elected to the Kentucky General Assembly, one of them a woman, the first to serve in such a capacity in the state. A big brother movement among the alumni clubs, especially those outside Kentucky, holds the interest of younger graduates and former students. Aid is offered in obtaining positions, suitable living quarters and social acquaintances. Meetings are held monthly, including informal get-togethers at homes of the members. A spirit of mutual helpfulness is spreading among the “Kentuckians” in forty-six states of the union and in seventeen foreign countries. “Do it for Kentucky” is their slogan. Page itoenty-four Vj nn„

FORMAL OPENING OF UNIVERSITY, SEPTEMBER 21, 1921 The P resident Says It is a good thing to be a college student under almost any circumstances, but it is a great thing if one puts his heart and soul into it. During his four-year residence the stu- dent undergoes tests of character, develops viewpoints, and lays a foundation for open- mindedness and tolerance that should lead to a better citizenship. 1 his is the hope of the state in establishing the university. On the other hand, the university must be prepared to do its part in the training of the youth who come to it. Adequate buildings, equipped laboratories, libraries, and well-trained men and women on the staff are required for the work of the institution. The call upon the university to teach and to carry on research grows each year. Build- ings wear out, equipment becomes obsolete, and staffs must be enlarged and strengthened.
