brary, (3) art galleries, (4) scholarship funds, and (5) research funds. What part of the plans will be fulfilled in the near future can not accurately be foretold. However, as the present academic year draws to a close, ground is being cleared for the erec- tion of a new dormitory group directly across the main quadrangle from the West Campus Union building. This group will be built around three quadrangle courts and will house more than five hundred and fifty students in the lavv, medical, theological, and graduate schools. One of the features of the new dormitory group will be five common rooms set aside for reception rooms and recreational purposes. Designed by Horace Trumbauer, the architect for the original buildings and the Duke Chapel, the new buildings, by maintaining the present archi- tectural unity of the University, should enhance greatly its Gothic splendor. It is hoped that this project will be completed by April, 1939, in order that it may be dedicated as a part of the centennial program. This year as Duke University pauses in its centennial celebration to consider its rise from the obscurity of its humble beginnings, it need have no fear of the future, fo r Duke University continues to foster the high aims cherished by the founders of Trinity College.
