Q. ssiim TO THE CLASS OF 19471.11 Welcome to Oklahoma City University traditions- this first volume of The Kesbemz, the kaleidoscope through which we shall view the interesting variety of patterns of campus capers and progress in 1946-47. Herein are reflected the rapid, progressive realization of cherished ambitions of students, faculty and ad- ministration. Nlay Keshemz, which connotes brave, colorful and dramatic leadership, stimulate the Class of 1947 to continued progress. These pages mirror unprecedented growth of Okla- homa City Universityls enrolment and financial stabil- ity, the return to the campus of more than 1,500 men from the battlehelds of the world in defense of our freedomg the resumption of athletics, and many other student activities which were interrupted during the four years of war. Class of 1947, during your four years here, you have seen the University cleared of j1i36o,000.00 in- debtedness, the assets quadrupled, the endowment in- creased ji500,000.0og the enrolment grow from 1,100 to 3,8683 the library, with 10,000 new volumes, moved into its new home, a pipe organ installed in the auditorium, a new cafeteria built on the campusg 163 apartments for Cvlis built at Will Rogers Field, and more than fiB200,000.00 worth of teaching equip- ment added. The faculty has been doubled. U. C. U. has been accredited by the University Senate, and the School of Nlusic by the American Association of Schools of Miisic. You have had a large share in all this advance. You and other students have been the sole inspiration and purpose of this achievement. We are sure you will carry the same inspiration and progress into your chosen professions or occupations. Nlay you never forget that achievement adds responsibility and makes failure conspicuous. Class of 1947, we shall miss you and hope you will return often to the campus. Qui' interest, best wishes and prayers will follow you. C. Smith ...IO.1
