A University is a place of concourse whither students come from every quar- ter for every kind of knowledge. - Yes. Here we have come, to this university. Here we have come, each from fltiis own land, each with hisfown hopes, his own ideals already so deeply rooted, his own goals. Here we have come, we individuals striving for such heights of truth, of understanding, and of wisdom that we must cling to each other for firm grounding in our climb. Here is the foot of our ascent, our sum- mit and our view of summits still higher. We reach, yet barely know for what prize our hands are grasping. We stretch, yet we but dimly view the treasure we so covet. And so we stand in the nakedness of our own insignificance and beg. We beg this world of wisdom to share with us its wealth. We have come, then, to ask just this: knowledge-knowledge of self, that we may have the humility to learn, knowledge of others that we may have the understanding to teach, and knowledge of the world and all its wonder that we may profit from its storehouse and enrich its beauty with Wisdom. To this end-the acquisition of knowledge, we direct our search. Yet that search has many facets, each adding its own special depth, impressing its own special character, culminating in its own pinnacle of understanding. The Classroom, sterile in itself, is the birthplace of ideas. Here our minds are first opened, awakened, stimulated to produce original concepts in the mold of those that quickened their activity. But ideas that limit themselves to the realm of the purely academic tend to wither and lose their vitality. And so we activate these- ideas in our co- curricular activities, discussing them in a spirit of discriminating liberalism and reinforcing them with the thoughts of others. These ideas find a place in our extra-curricular activities, too, though here their dynamism is more subtle. Classroom knowledge, complemented by experience and iudgment, guides us in our self-expression, our self-government, our aesthetic endeavors, and our sportsmanship. Yes. We have come to discover, to receive, perhaps to conceive knowl- edge. We have come empty-handed, begging, yet in this we have brought the university a priceless gift-her intrinsic worth. Individually and together we, the students, are defining the idea of a University. Individually and to- gether we are a University. L - . - ..-... Hil Plum I . - .
