The facilities planned for this first three-year phase will increase the educational area on our campus by about 50 per cent through construction of three major projects. The Computer-Research-Complex will ease the pressure for research and teaching space in the engineering departments and the sciences, and permit us to reach new plateaus of excellence. It will, for example, provide the facilities needed to achieve our goal to become a center of excellence in chemistry, physics, and mathematics, for which we received a grant of S3.4 million from the National Science Foundation last year. A second major project is the Fine Arts Complex being designed to house the departments of Drama, Architecture, and Design. These new facilities which will include a new experimental theatre for our nationally renowned drama program will provide superb educational facilities for the departments housed in it and permit the expansion and complete renovation of the present Fine Arts building for the departments of Music and of Painting and Sculpture. The third structure being planned is a major addition to Skibo. which will concentrate on the kinds of recreational, relaxation, and activity space needed to enhance the quality of the out-of-class life of our students and which will include a modern and much expanded bookstore. Finally, let me say this. We want to develop a university community in which no member or no special grouping within it ever refers to another group as “they”. If we can have students and faculty, administration, trustees, and alumni, all emphasizing the “we” in our University community, I think we have a chance of really going farther up the ladder of distinction which is the goal of all our goals. Best wishes in the year to come. H. Guyford Stever, President

orientation in life. I have seen too many young people without this orientation struggling to find some way to contribute to life and cam their way through it. Some of you young men and women have denied professionalism as •‘irrelevant”. I disagree. Whatever world you young people construct (and I’m cheering you on for a good world) it will be a complex society. And professionals with a good humane and human outlook will be much needed. Another goal of the University is to help our professionally-oriented students become better citizens of the world, to know more about man, his failures and his successes, his ideals and his ideas, the place of the individual in society and the requirements of society on the individual. We hope to do this part of our job much better as we strengthen our humanities and social sciences in the new college. And we would like to concentrate some of our professional strengths on helping society solve its biggest problem today, the urban problem, in the establishment of the new Graduate School for Urban and Public Affairs. The third aim of the University is the development of an environment well suited for the young people to make the many transitions from youth to adulthood. It is quite difficult to specify the exact environment we would like, for we discover, as many other colleges and universities have discovered, that we have a great variety in our undergraduate body. Personally, I am pleased that we do. for I think it would be a tragic mistake for us to select one type of students and try to mold them into one set of environments. In everything we do in the future, provision of living facilities, social facilities, athletic facilities, intellectual facilities, cultural facilities, we hope to provide many paths through this University for the undergraduate and the graduate student. Here again, our goal is to have greater and better facilities to provide this variety. As you probably know, on March 14, 1968. we announced our Carnegie-Mellon Fund for Distinction. This came from several years of study by our faculty and administration on where CMU should go from here. We actually looked ten years ahead, but our immediate effort includes only a certain number of projects which we believe we can attain with a goal of $55 million to be raised in three years. Of this amount $30 million is for academic programs and $25 million for new physical facilities. 5
