Along the lines that he meant to speak, let me also look back into the future. I glance at the tower room of the president's office and recall the faculty meetings I at' tended there during 1893 to 1895. Ten teachers of us-each with class book in hand-discussed the details of the problems of discipline and of curricula in those faculf ty meetings. During the thirty seven intervening years, resident faculty members have inf creased many times the original ten and student attendance has gained about fifty fold. Information is now being carried by word of mouth throughout the state, even to remote villages and rural communities by another teaching group, while forces of investigators are carrying on research in many fields. Dr. I. H. Sheppard Looking forward to the fiftieth anniversary of the college, I see the footprints of 2500 campus students with many thousands more reached in outlying districts. The Morrill Act of the U. S. Congress reads: Each State which may take and claim the benefit of this Act, to the endowment, support, and maintenance of at least one college where the leading object shall be, without excluding other scientific and classical studies, and including military tactics, to teach such branches of learning as are related to agriculture and mechanic arts-In order to promote the liberal and practical education of the industrial classes in the' several pursuits and professions of life. - The uplift of the people engaged in industrial pursuits is clearly our mission as lain down in the creative act of Congress and it is my opinion that this College will not drift from its charted course. ,M Page 19 lllllllllllllllllllllllllllll!llllllllllllllllllllllll .L-
