New York University - Violet Yearbook (New York, NY)

. e Hli growth of our Alma Mater during the past decade has been truly a remarkable one. The liberality . of our friends, the energy and progressiveness of our Executive, the vigorous spirit manifested on the part of our Council and Faculty, all have combined to develop rapidly our college, and have enabled New York University to take its place among the great institutions of learning in the country. The student body has attempted to keep pace with this rapid advancement. In scholarship, in I literary work, in athletics, in all branches of college activity it has endeavored to uphold tl1e honor of the University, and to justify the efforts of those who have been the chief factors in its advancement. ,!eJ Throughout its college career, the Class of Nineteen-Three has exemplified this spirit, and we, r' as its representatives in publishing this volume of TI'Il5: VIOL1sT, have tried still further to carry out its policy. We have realized that a college annual should be indicative of the growth of the institu- tion it represents, and it has been our plan to make the book of the Class of Nineteen-Three a true book of N. Y. U. In this it will be evident we have not succeeded, but we ask that our attempt be taken into consideration, and that our finished product be judged accordingly. Per-sfanf el Pnfslare is the spirit in which all of ourcollege enterprises should be undertaken, and if this is kept in mind our annual publication will soon be worthy of the institution it represents.

This bare recital of Mr. Wheelock's official relation to New York University, tells something of his career as a University man, but it is in the sa111e way that a catalogue of the different stations on a journey tells the ex- perience and achievements of the traveler. Mr. Wheelock started with New York University in the first te11 years of its existence, and has traveled along side of it for more than three score years. Always her devoted son, he is known for quiet, constant, successful service. He is equally spoken of as a strong, hearty leader in crises, when the very constitution of the University was in question. His abounding sympathy with students has been continually evinced by his aid to our literary, social and athletic enterprises. His wisdom in the financial affairs of the University, as also the wisdom of those associated with him, appears in the notable fact that not a dollar of the principal of any of our University endowments has ever been lost. Mr. Wheelock is never known to fail when it is possible for him to attend the annual reunions of the notable class of 1843. New York University does not need to concern herself as to the ideal college man in business, for in Mr. Wheelock she has at the head of her corporation a realization of the college man in business that may serve as an example to succeeding generations of undergraduates. lf! r.
