The burning of Russ Hall during an electrical storm in 1914, a tragic set-back at the time, provided only added initiative and effort toward the goal of a perman- ently established, ever-growing educational institution. The school developed from the special task of preparing teachers of industrial arts and home economics to a general program embracing the preparation of teachers and administrators in all subject-matter fields and in all levels of the public-school system. The 27 years from 1913 to 1940 constituted the administration of the first pres- ident of the College, William A. Brandenburg. It was a period of notable progress in raising and establishing on high levels the academic standards of the institu- tion; of remarkable expansion of the program and the offerings, in keeping with the rapidly increasing enrollment of students, and consequent enlargement of the faculty; of substantial development of financial support, and of corresponding growth in physical plant and equipment. Dr. 0. P. Dellinger was appointed acting president in 1940, until the accession of Dr. Rees H. Hughes as president in 1941. Since that time, the College has ex- panded under the careful leadership of President Hughes. The new buildings on campus speak for themselves and for the functioning building program, and the growth in enrollment speaks for the intellectual, social, and spiritual growth and training the students receive. Kansas State Teachers College has become one of the fully-accredited schools in the nation, and its active constructional and educational programs assure its place in the American school system. Beginning this summer, the College celebrates its fiftieth anniversary, and if this Kanza of 1953 were to be dedicated, it could only be to those students and faculty members of years past. The way has been lighted before us, we can but follow. Page 6
