Chapter One KANSAS STATE YEAR Progress Has Been Shown By Students, Administration, and Regents, As Another School Year Leaves Its Mark L H i s is the story of the 1935-36 school year at Kansas State College, pictorially descriptive in all its details a drama in the lives of some 3,626 students. This has been the year showing the greatest fall enrollment in the history of th e college, the year when students and faculty members alike were given their first glimpse of future horizons for the school, with the launching of the 20-year program of development. This has been the year of the carrying out of one of the phases of the 20-year program in the appointment of Dr. S. A. Nock as vice- president, to be administrator of both the vice-president ' s and the registrar ' s offices. This has been a year of mediocrity in athletics; the first year in which the ROYAL PURPLE, Kansas State Collegian, Manhattan Theater, and several other worthwhile college activities have been included in the activity fee; of the Golden Jubilee of the Y. W. C. A.; of the establishment of a competent head of the student health department in Dr. M. W. Husband ; of the winning of the national dairy cattle judging contest; of the completion of 52 years of service with the college by Dr. J. T. Willard; of the death of the beloved head of the department of economics and sociology, Dr. J. E. Kammeyer; of the failure to secure a vitally needed physical science building to replace Denison Hall, destroyed by fire in 1934. Time marches on. Development, progress, and activity has been shown. The seventy- third anniversary of the founding of the in- stitution was passed February 16, 1936. As to the mark that the closing school year has left on the mass of the individual students, one can only speculate and not actually describe. If the mechanism of education has increased in the students a deeper sense of social responsibility, taught them to think, aided them in their quest for happiness, if society will be benefited by the students as they go out to make their way in the world then the year will not have been in vain.
