My ofRcial duties call on me to extend greetings to scores of organizations throughout the year, but no such request has given me more pleasure than the invitation to greet the students of the University of Washington through your yearbook. The Tyee. The reason is that I am on alumnus of both the liberal arts and the aw schools. Your University is mine, and its progress and growth through the years has been dear to my heart, as it is to all the old grads. As your school year nears a close, and I fmish my first half-year as your governor, I see ahead a tre- mendous growth for our school as our population expands. One of my greatest prides, during my legis- lative career, was the sponsorship of the measures which established our fine medical and dental schools and teaching hospital. I can assure you that, as needs arise, my warm support as governor will go to improvement and expansion of the physical plants of the university. Furthermore, I feel that I have a double responsibility, both as governor and an alumnus, to see that the University has the finest administration and the best teachers possible. We in government owe that to you and to future generations. In that regard, I plan to see greater participation of your faculty, your alumni, and those in state government in the affairs of your University and mine. It is my hope to visit the campus many times during the next year, to talk with you students and your faculty, with one mutual aim— the welfare and betterment of the University of Washington we all love. May you all have a fine summer, wherever you are! Albert D. Rosellini Governor of the State of Washington 11
