NINETEEN -t-Im:rxo;o THIRTY-THREE onewmamuZHEUb : PREXY AT HIS DESK A GREATER AUGUSTANN, On the accredited list of the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools, Augustana meets the test of a true seat of learning. From a one-room school with one professor and twentywone Students, it has grown during the past seventyrtwo years to be an institution of nine principal buildings with an administration and faculty of more than ninety members and one thousand studentst The non-sectarian nature of the coilege is shown by the fact that its student body last year included mem- bers of twenty church denominations. A wide area is servedl students coming from twenty-two states and four foreign countries. Within the past few years, through the aid of congregational friends, fine Seminary buildings have been erected on Zion Hill at a cost of $375,000; under the enthusiastic and tireless leadership of Mrs. Emmy Evald, the Womanks Missionary Society of the Aughstana Synod has proe vided the sum of $125,000 for the erection of a Womenis Building, first Occupied in September, 1928. Splendid achievement! But true progress means constant progress. Student enrollment, especially in the Senior college, must be increasedetoo many of 0111' stu- dents leave us after two years, residence. A new science hall must be erected and modernly equipped, and We feel safe in assuring any students now considering enrollment with us next fall that we shall have these facilities for their use not later than their junior year. Our summer school is now upon a permanent basis and proving very successful. Although it is now of recognized standing. our achievement. program provides for its prompt and definite enlargement and betterment. So, too, with our night school, instituted at the beginning of the present academic year, which seems to have met a. distinct community need. Other improvements are being planned2ea boy's dormitory, a refed- tory, a conservatory building, closer coiiperation with the church, greater alumni activity, and, above all, closer cob'rdination and cobperation of all in developing the soul of Augustana, in the achievement of a Greater Augustana.
