The President r % f Pembroke students, for whom the College exists and on whose education al are today both like and unlike those of the first 80 years. College trustees, administration, and faculty are keenly aware of both the similarities and the differences and of the need for understanding in dealing with student needs and student life. The emphasis must be, as it has been, on providing the maximum educational opportunity for every student 1 o this end, a strong faculty has been assembled, better buildings and equipment have been provided and broader, deeper curriculums are being offered. All this is being done with an awareness of the ferment in student life and attitudes which exi,sts everywhere Pembroke being no exception. Every possible effort is being exerted to keep open lines of communication with students and to meet, whenever possible, their legitimate and proper requests. Many steps are being taken to assure students the opportunity to express and receive consideration for their views Seminars with student leaders have been held before the opening of each session. The President ' s office and offices of his colleagues are open to individual students and student groups. A college-wide committee com- prising representation from students, faculty, and administration has been established to consider matters of interest to all. Through these and other methods the College is determined to meet the real needs and aspirations of its students. — English E. Jones, President Its resources are focussed. 20
