a GOVERNOR A. VIC DONAHEY dl:cation is the backbone of any government of and hy the people. It was so recognized by the 1 founders of our republic, by those who wended their way westward and established the North- west Territory, and finally by the pioneers of the greatest State of the Union — Ohio. To maintain our standards, education must be within the grasp of all persons, the rich and the poor alike. To teach the rudiments we have the public schools, and to teach the arts, sciences and professions there are two-score colleges and universities, open to all persons seeking the enlightenment of knowledge, chief among which is the Ohio State University. The Ohio State University onginated in 1870 with the founding of the Ohio Agricultural and Mechanical College. In 1903 it had but 1516 students and a faculty of 1J4, while today it numbers over 10,000 students with a faculty of over 700. Its expansion has been tremendous and its relation and far-reaching effect upon the State at large is perhaps greater than that of any other state institution. I bespeak for the future an ever expanding Ohio State University of continued and ever growing usefulness to the citizenry of our State. o i [19]

Layboume T WAS former President James H. Canfield, who epito- mised the fundamental purpose of the University in the words: The state h;is no material rest)urecs at all eom- parahlc with its citizens, and no hope of perpetuity except in the intelligence and intejjrity of its people. Dr. Canfield saw clearly, as all thoui;htfuI men must see, that the hope of an enlij;htened democracy lies in the educa- tion of its people. It holds true now, even more than in his day, that education consists not merely in the application of the arts and the sciences, but especially in an appreciation of the opportunities and responsibilities of citizenship. It is the high purpose of the University administration, so far as it is able, to foster the sort of education that makes for enlightened, responsive and responsible citizenship. Education means little unless It becomes an inherent part of the life of the individual and the community itself gains little if education merely adorns the individual like a spare part or an accessory. The selfish attitude of those who seek an education merely as a means of making a better living is to be deplored; such persons miss the whole point of higher education. In spite of the increasing em- phasis on material things, the primary purpose of education is still to afford a broader, richer, fuller life for the individual, and a more rounded and more fruitful life for the community. Only as the Univer- sity measures up to these ends does it realize the full possibility of its service to the state.
