UNIVERSITY Book One se «« »« ADMINISTRATION, FACULTY, STUDENT GOVERNMENT DUKE University had its beginnings one hundred years ago in Union Institute, and this year we celebrate that beginning. It was one that was rather inauspicious for a University of such size and fame as is now hers, but the very advancement and progress that is indicated by comparative views of 1838 and 1938 is indicative of the spirit that has pervaded the school ever since its founding. And now after a hundred years of significant contri- butions to the causes of education and Christianity, the University is pre- paring for its centennial celebration. The passing of the century has seen the evolution of a small log building into the inspiring grandeur of the present plant, and witnessed the continued devotion of this institution to erudition and religion. Since its humble origin, Duke University has been fired with the spirit of the pioneer. It was one of the first institutions in the South to accept women as coordinate students, and it has long es- poused the principles of intellectual freedom upon which all truth and sound learning are founded. And this spirit of intelligent liber- alism is no less evident today, nor have its principles of democratic education been weak- ened by the chaos of an unstable world. Even today the program of expansion looking to a better Duke University in order to provide opportunity for intellectual advancement goes forward with the breaking of ground for a new building.
