President’s Message to the Students The college year of 1957-58 portrayed in the jxtges of this volume of the Beaver will long bo remembered by the students and staff of Oregon State College. Students will remember 1957-58 because Oregon State’s enrollment reached an all-time high of 767G students fall term. This record, however, is certain to be shattered next fall and even succeeding fall until OSC has at least doubled its present student population. Students will rememl er 1957-58 because Oregon State, by defeating the University of Oregon, rejx-ated its Pacific Coast Conference football championship although graciously sharing it this year with Oregon’s Rose Bowl team. Or. they will remember 1957-58 because of an outstanding basketball team. Students will remember 1957-58 because of Oregon State’s significant strides toward becoming an even greater university, both in fact and in name. Students will rememlx r 1957-58 for many individual achievements. for accomplishments of the institution, for wider horizons in educational op| ortunities, or for any one or more of a score of other reasons. But most of all. I am confident, students will remcml er 1957-58 for the beginning of a new era in education, at practically all levels, with ixirtieular emphasis —rightly or wrongly - on science and technology. We have seen at first-hand this | ast year a tremendous and meteoric change in educational emphasis. Regardless of what appraisal history finally records about this period we all have been a | art of it and in the midst of it. Yes, there is still always -always —something new in the world! In this momentous atmosphere of change and on behalf of the administration, I extend to the entire student Ixxlv of Oregon State our gratitude for an eventful year just completed and our lx st wishes to you all for the future as you return to your homes or establish your careers throughout the world. Sincerely, j A. I.. Strand. President 16
