PRESIDENT The 1958-59 session ends eleven years of unprece- dented educational and economic progress at the Uni- versity of Virginia under the able administration of President Colgate W. Darden, Jr. During his admin- istration, some thirty major buildings have been erected, including the Cancer Research Building, the Men,s Dor- mitory Group, Mary Munford Hall, the multi-storied hospital, and massive Newcomb Hall. Mr. Darden,s principal contribution, however, lies in the Universityls vastly enlarged curriculum and faculty, which he has constantly sought to improve. Mr. Darden,s personal accomplishments would fill many pages and reveal an amazing versatility of impor- tant services successfully rendered. Let us only say that his impeccable record as a scholar, soldier, politician, and educator should serve as an example for all University students. We wish Mr. Darden the greatest prosperity and happiness in future endeavors, but assure him that he will never be more respected, admired, and loved than he was here at the University. COLGATE WHITEHEAD DARDEN, JR. President 1947-1959 E l
