Wilson, Jr. Felix Zweig The New Haven College Board of Governors appreciates the efforts of the Chariot Staff and its advisors in publishing this yearbook as a mirror of college life. Although our Board primarily deals with policies, finances, evaluation, and planning, we are very much interested in the students and alumni. What they are and what they do in the future for the community and for themsehes are measures of how well the Faculty, the Administration, and the Board have fulfilled their respective duties. It is also our objective, as an independent community college, to provide courses and programs which will attract, inform, and stimulate the graduates and former students of New Haven College.

MARVIN K. PETERSON President To the 1964 Graduates: This year of 1963-1964, our fourth here on the campus in West Haven, has seen New Haven College take further steps forward. These are all part of the master plan for the development of your College. Many of you have been here for the four years of our occupancy of the present campus and have participated in the College ' s growth. This has been both academic and physical, as it should be. As the enrollment increases, both academic personnel and facilities must keep pace. Also, facilities for the many extra-curricular activities must catch up with the present number of students and be prepared for the even greater number expected in coming years. In addition to the gain in enrollment of both day and evening students, two really significant factors of growth have been the marked increase in the number of full-time faculty members and the broadening of our College ' s bachelor degree offerings. We shall continue to strength our corps of full-time teaching staff. At present we shall not extend our degree offerings, but we hope to achieve continually greater depth and quality in the curriculum we present. As I write, I see from my window the first physical evidence of our new Student Center — the test boring machine in operation. Many of you will be receiving bachelor degrees before the Center is completed. We are sorry that you will not have an opportunity to enjoy it as students. As alumni, however, you will have many chances to see the Center when you return to the campus for graduate activities. We hope that in time you will see a new science and engineering classroom and labora- tory building being constructed. In the meantime, the space created by the Student Center will permit us to vacate areas in the main building now occupied by student service functions and to construct new classrooms in their place. Thus the College will endeavor to meet the ever-growing demand to enroll more stu- dents. Although our plans do not call for New Haven College to become a university, we must provide for those students in this area who are qualified for college and need ou reducational facilities. You are about to become alumni of the College, and we welcome you to this graduate group. Some of you will be returning for further education, some will be going on to other educational institutions, and others will be pursuing their careers in business or industry. Regardless of your future plans, you will always be close to our hearts here at your Alma Mater. The support and guidance of a loyal alumni body is necessary to every college; we hope you will give it to yours. But we do not lose sight of the fact that such support cannot be asked unless it is merited. As you pass the milestone of graduation, the best wishes of the entire faculty and staff go to each one of you. May I add my personal congratulations and my sincere hope that the future may bring success to each of you. MARVIN K. PETERSON President, New Haven College
