J 2 QQ cv mu GBM Alumni The origin and history of an institution of learning are deeply significant because they reveal both purpose and character. Though Heidelberg was in its infancy as a college only sixty-eight years ago, the institution already had the elements of greatness. This fact was due in a large degree to the emphasis which her founders placed upon the truth that 'lReligion and Education are the Safe- guards of Our Nation. The early teachers and professors also were men of broad training and sterling character. During the period of the first fifty years the intellectual standards were raised to great efficiency, the prestige in the line of scholarship was highly increased, and the college came to be widely known. The crowning material achievement of this period was the building of University Hall. At the Centennial Exposition in Philadelphia, no college surpassed Heidelberg in its exhibit, a prominent part of which was a model of University Hall, constructed of buckeye logs and covered with buckeyes. As a consequence of this rapid growth and expansion of the institution, the name Heidelberg College was formally legalized to Heidelberg Universityl' in 1890. Some fifty-eight years ago, the graduates of this institution united themselves into an Association in order to promote friendship, preserve the intimate relations the Alumni hold to each other, and advance the interests of their Alma hlaterf' During the years which have elapsed since that time, the loyalty of the graduates has been often and generously demonstrated, and many tangible evidences of their appreciation have been manifested. By the influence of their time and substance they have been a potent factor in the rapid progress of the University. In 1371 the Association undertook the endowment of a professorship known as the Alumni Professorship. This chair is in the department of English and is now filled by one of our own alumni, Prof. Albert D. Keller, A. BI. ln recognition of the large place filled by the alumni in the life of our institu- tion, they are now permitted to nominate annually one member of the Board of Regents. ln addition a part of the commencement program each year is devoted to their interests. This is in the form of the Alumni luncheon which is attended by the graduates and their friends. It is also the occasion of the delivery of the Q2 FE E I I I I I I I-I-I InIt':iIiiiiiIii.afI...iI .HIE
