ADMINISTRATION Congratulatory messages, a huge cake, and a greeting from President Eisenhower helped Kansas State college cele- brate its 90th birthday last February 16. As one looks back over K-State ' s ninety years of service to the state and to the nation, one sees a school to be proud of. From one of the first land grant colleges established under the Morrill Act, K-State has grown to the second largest school in the state, and ranks high in the nation in many fields. Its School of Home Economics is the only one in the state, and ranks high nationally, it claims one of the outstanding Schools of Veter- inary Medicine, the second largest fieldhouse, the only de- partment of milling industry in the world, a top-ranking basketball team, and an Olympic star. The future is sure to be as successful. Happy Birthday, K-State, you ' ve come a long way!
