Fort Hays State University - Reveille Yearbook (Hays, KS)

In 1913, the young campus of Fort Hays State was cold and bleak with few buildings. Above, Pieken Hall, the gymnasium (now Martin Allen Hall), and the Industrial Building (now ' Rarick Hall.) Authorized in the fall of 1913, the Reveille has pic- tured fifty of the colleges sixty years. The changes which have taken place: the full accreditation of the col- lege, establishment of the graduate division and a six-year specialist program, the increase in enrollment, the development of the physical facilities and the turnover in thought, custom, and habit have been re- fleeted through the eyes of former members of the Reveille staff. 1913 was a memorable year for the students at Hays, President William Lewis took office, the school ' s name was officially changed from the Western Branch Normal School to Fort Hays Norma! School, and the Reveille printed its first edition. The first Reveille was produced by the staff of the State College Leader, headed by Alfred Richmond and A. 1 hisnant. Although not of the quality re- cjuired of today ' s books, the 1913-1914 Reveille was a sizable, well-done book of its day. Students make use of the Memorial Union facilities to relax after each day of classes. 2
