Future Seen Through Eyes f Janus During our Golden Anniversary Year at Fresno State, we should assess our accomplishments and project our goals. Let me assume the role of a modern Janus. Janus, you remem- ber, was the Roman deity who had two faces-one looking to the past, and one to the future. What would a modern Janus see if he looked back over the years at F.S.C.'? What could he foretell of Fresno State's destiny? Fifty years is a relatively short time in the history of a social institution. Yet Fresno State's development during its first half century has been remarkable. Started as a normal school in 1911, with 207 students enrolled in a two-year prog- ram in Pedogogy, the institution has grown with the community to the point where it now enrolls more than 6000 students in its regular sessions and about that same number in Summer Sessions. It offers instruction leading to Baccalaureate degrees in more than forty major subject fields and to master's degrees in seventeen. It maintains an academic faculty of about 375. lts physical plant has grown from temporary quarters in the high school to a campus encompassing more than 1400 acres. It utilizes about forty buildings to house its broadly-based programs. The educational program embraces a residence center at Bakersfield with an enrollment over 400 and a dozen or more fulltime staff members and, half way around the world, in Sudan, an international education project involving fourteen professors. Fresno State has served the San Joaquin Valley and the State of California effectively. It occupies a position of distinc- tion among institutions of higher learning in California and throughout the Nation. The quality of its faculty and the com- petence of its student body compare with the best. Yes, the institution has come a long way since l911. And now what does Janus see as he looks toward the centennial year 2011? Only the future will tell, but let him venture some bold predictions: Continued growth of the student body to an enrollment of 10,000 students within a decade, many new buildings, but most prominent among them, a greatly enlarged library with increased and improved services, expansion of the physical plant into the area bounded by Maple, Chestnut, Shaw and Barstow Avenues, with academic buildings along the east side of Maple Avenue, continued development and improvement of the educational program with eventual 'funiversity-type status, and a research program, further development of the program of studies in agriculture and 'other occupational fields to meet the changing demands of agri-business and other needs in the San Joaquin Valley, and a fine new athletic stadium, ballpark, and related athletic and recreational facilities between Cedar Avenue and Fraternity Row. Let future seers evaluate this prediction! -A. E. JOYAL 615.
