DURING AN era of marked change as well as during times of steady development, the success of a university de- pends on a dedicated faculty guided by an able administration. Cooperation among instructors in the various departments and their general enthusiasm for future greatness is felt throughout an academic society. Greater progress is insured by a Board of Regents visibly supporting the efforts of an aggressive administration, Administration 20 Departments 32 Law School 46

Presidenfapromises rise of the legendary phoenix DYNAMIC is the word to describe Washburn's president after his second year in command. Turn- ing even thejune disaster into a step toward the new promise of the 102-year-old university, john W. Henderson said, 4'Washburn is like the phoe- nix, a bird in ancient mythology, which rose trium- phant out of its own ashes. Indicative of this re- birth, Washburn is now beginning an expansive building program which includes immediately a new Fine Arts Center, Education building, and Law School. All will be fully-equipped with the lat- est teaching supplements such as rear and over-head projection, educational television circuits, and ac- cess to the computer center in the basement of the new addition to Morgan Hall. The Hrelocatablesfi the center of a beautification program which Dr. Henderson is initiating, were a great assistance to Washburn during her massive spurt of growth. Forty-one trailer classrooms, locat- ed in villages named for previously existing build- ings,provided needed facilities in areas separated from future construction sites. With brightly- colored doors, shrubbery and landscaping, and ar- tistic signs scattered between the units, President Henderson hopes to 'cadd life to the sterile exterior ofthese buildings which will be here for quite a while nowf, Making contacts in France, Germany, Britain, and Yugoslavia for possible student programs in these countries, Dr. Henderson plans for a greatly expanded international program for Washburn. Within four years he wants every student to have the opportunity to study outside the United States. The best way to teach Americanism is to see and study the United States from other countries. Only then can a student comprehend the full implications of the operations of his own nation. Furthermore, America is deeply involved in international affairs. Students in any Held need to understand the work- ings of other countries, the thinking of other peo- ples, and the operations of other governments and economies. But Dr. Henderson's favorite project is a pro- gram of Hcomputer-assisted instructionw in which students would not only be taught through TV lec- tures and demonstrations on computer file, but also have access to a ulearning-resources library. The student would be able to dial for audio-visual subject information in addition to book research. Washburn must not be left behind in this impor- tant march toward progress. John W. Henderson
