The most important of Stanford tra- ditions are those which have to do with the development of the student ' s intellect and character. The outstand- ing scholars who make up Stanford ' s faculty play the foremost part in the intellectual growth which should be the central fact of university life; but this growth is further encouraged by the number and variety of distin- guished visitors with whom students may come in contact. In a little more than a year on campus, an under- graduate may have an opportunity to see, hear and question men like Sar- gent Shriver, Walter Winchell, James Baldwin, Fred Schwarz and Arnold Tovnbee. These men — prominent, controversial, articulate and interest- ing — may have contributed more than they realized to the education of those who heard them at Stanford. Such visitors are part of the main- stream of Stanford tradition. Sargent Shriver visited Stanford in connection with the Peace Corps. A familiar sight during Pre Reg eacli quarter is the Registrar ' s office. 23
