5 ts ? Lv- 1 .55 .W President CHARLES F. WISHART Twenty-one Years With Wishart About the time most of the present seniors were learning to toddle, Prexy Wishart came to Wooster. As the toddlers grew, so Wooster grew. In 1919 there was a plant of fourteen modern buildings, to-day there are twenty-five, some new, others aging, but all part of the Wooster scene. In those twenty-one years at least 31,075,000 have been invested in buildings and land for the college. In 1928-29, while alumni could still show their love for alma mater in a monetary way, the resources of the college were increased about a million dollars, mostly for endowment. Douglass Hall sprang up for men, and later, to be impartial, Babcock Hall for women. So Wooster has grown physically and financially. Under Prexy the college has also added a cubit to its scholastic stature. The faculty has doubled, the endowment WILLIAM R. WESTHAFER, Dean of the College has doubled, but so has the student body. Accordingly, Wooster's needs have doubled. Recently Prexy jolted his board of trus- tees by saying that Wooster must have one million dollars to mark time, and two mil- lion dollars to march ahead in the next ten years. He said that it now costs S700,000.00 a year to run Wooster. Under Prexy, then, Wooster has begun a drive for two million dollars. The object is to increase endow- ment funds, to enlarge the library, and to improve the campus. In a speech before the Presbyterian Gen- eral Assembly of 1937, Prexy pled for Q11 decent endowments, or Q21 decent inter- ments. Wooster has been training students for sixty-nine years, yet is not decrepit. Wooster, though not so big, is quite robust. The Index feels with Prexy that it is still too early for the burial.
