TO THE STUDENT BODY: The responsibility for the management of the finances and the direction of the program of development for Denison University rests with the Board of Trustees By the provisions of the charter the Board consists of thirty-six members, six of whom are elected by the society of the Alumni. At present twenty of the Trustees are alumni of Denison. A majority are residents of the State of Ohio with members also from Indianapolis, Chicago, Pittsburgh, New York, and Boston. During the past year two members have died, Ambrose Swasey and Francis W. Shepardson. Both of these contributed much in gifts and in counsel, and through their influence gave an interational reputation to Denison. The campus of Denison was started in l854 by the purchase of 27 acres on the top of the hill. lt has been added to by purchase and gift until now the campus proper contains 250 acres, and l5O acres to the east of North Street have been purchased for future developments. The gifts of Colonel Edward A. Deeds in l9l7 of more than two-thirds of the present campus were notable, and have made possible the development of one of the finest college campuses in America. During the past year through the generosity of Mr. Franklin G. Smith of Cleveland a complete survey of the entire campus has been made, with the tracing of elevations, the location of roadways and trees, and the charting of the loca- tion of present and future buildings. Plans for landscaping have also been developed so that sections of the campus may be completed as funds are provided. The HDenison Destiny Programn, announced in 1956, sets a goal of three million dollars additional to the endowment and approximately the same amount for new buildings and equipment. Something over 3500,000 of this was secured by October, 1957. Plans for the HSecond Stepu in this program are now in prepa- ration. Yours very truly, 1 Page Sea enfeen
