President Farrand Addresses a fresh Hclcbxxlhcu hleeHng also increased during these years lrom 317,188,177 to 530,894,023 Buildings, however, have never been President Far- rand's maior concern. ln his lirst general message to Cornell alumni, he stressed the need ol higher salaries lor the Faculty, and later messages have urged provision lor retirement allowances, hnancial aid lor prosecution and publication of research, more liberal support lor the Library, and other plans to malce Cornell more attractive to able scholars. That the administration had talcen advantage ol: opportunities to strengthen the Under President Farran Faculty was made clear in IQZ4, when a survey of graduate instruction in American universities by a committee of the American Council on Education rated Cornell distinguished in sixteen fields and adequately equipped in nine more, placing the University as a whole among the first ten in America. President Far- rand's urbanity and tact in handling the human prolo- lems of the institution have maintained, through trying times, a rare spirit ol unity and cooperation. It has been one ol Dr. Farrandis main purposes to maintain Cornell as a national and even international institution ol learning. An increasing number ot stu- dents from beyond New Yorlc State and from many lands have lound their way to Cornell. By ein- phasizing the quality of students and not mere num- bers, the university has lcept its enrollment fairly con- stant. President Farrand has not forced a wholesale revision ol curricula, but improvements and innovations have been adopted promptly when demonstrably sound. hlost notably the curriculum ol the Arts College was given carelul study by a faculty committee and the result was a complete revision ol the oliferings ol that college. ln 1929, Cornell tool: the lead in olzfering courses in hotel administration. and this worlc, under the direction ol Professor H. B. Nieelc, has developed into an important division of the College of Home Economics. The College ol Engineering announced in 1Q5I a new curriculum in administrative engineering and in 1930 senior options in air-conditioning, aviation, and industrial design. Plans to meet new social and economic conditions were also prepared by the depart- ments ol education and rural education, with the result that a Graduate School ot Education was established fcontiriued on page 436i 1929 1937
