JOHN A. HUNTER President of the University PRESIDENT To the Students: I extend my personal congratulations to each of you upon the successful completion of a year at LSU. The entire University administration is proud of the student body and its achievements both curricular and extra- curricular during the 1962-63 year. You have shown, by your attitudes and abilities and resulting accomplishments, that you have measured up to the demands of an increas- ingly complex world. This has been a notable year for the University in many respects. This year we had the largest enrollment in LSU ' s history. And, at the same time, we saw a continuance of LSU ' s traditional service on all fronts despite difficulties and obstacles. I sincerely hope that each of you can reflect upon this year as one of genuine individual development a year in which challenging personal goals were set and reached and in which a lasting foundation for the future was laid. May this and other issues of the GUMBO help in forming a lasting and mutually beneficial bond between you and your University in the years to come. Sincerely, John A. Hunter President President Hunter talks with Student Body President Clinton Lewis.

BOARD OF SUPERVISORS Seated, Left to Right: C. J. Dugas, Donaldsonville; Chairman Percy E. Roberts. Baton Rouge; Mrs. Ella V. Aldrich Schwing, Plaquemine; John J. Doles. Plain Dealing; James T. Staples, Baton Rouge. Standing, Left to Right: John A. Hickman, Lake Charles; Theo. F. Cangelosi, Baton Rouge; Minos H. Armentor, New Iberia; A. L. Swanson, Monroe; Tom W. Dutton, New Orleans; Henry E. Walden, Alexandria; William Pitcher, Covington. Not present are Sterling Vf. Gladden. Baton Rouge; and Joseph C. LeSage Jr., vice chairman from Shreveport- An enrollment of 16,000 plus and a growing educational program on four campuses bear witness to the great task of the Louisiana State University Board of Supervisors. These prominent citizens of the State and alumni of LSU, along with the Governor, an ex-officio member, are the policy makers for the University. Making decisions which the Ad- ministration carries out, they serve as representatives of LSU before the State Legislature. Each member serves a term of 14 years. With the growing pressures of a rapidly expanding enrollment requiring greater facilities, both physical and professional, with an expanding University system and new campuses in New Orleans and Alexandria, with the de- mands made in all departments by rapid technical progress, the Board has grave policy decisions to make. It is through the guidance of the Board in such areas of policy as these that LSU has been able to maintain its high academic standing among the colleges and universities of the nation.
